Joy in God Alone (Habakkuk 3:17-19)

Today’s scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-19


We’ve all been through seasons where the “fig tree may not blossom” or the “fields yield no food.”

Times of dryness. Of futility. Of emotional famine.

No refreshing rain in sight.

Where can we possibly find joy during these seasons?

In the confidence that we have no strength of our own. What? How can being weak bring us joy?

Because our strength comes from the God of the universe, the Creator of all things. He is omnipotent—ALL-powerful. And He gives strength to us in our weakness.

Our joy is in Him and in Him alone. When we accept the Lord Jesus as Savior, He instills His strength in us.

So as we pray for rain through the dry seasons, we can pray for and receive any needed strength from the All-powerful God.
