Friday – Prophets
Reading – Habakkuk 3
Highlight Verse:
“The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He makes me as surefooted as a deer, able to tread upon the heights. (For the choir director: This prayer is to be accompanied by stringed instruments.)”
Habakkuk 3:19 NLT
I love the ending of Habakkuk.
He praises God regardless of the circumstances, declaring God as the source of His strength.
Then there’s this parenthetical revelation at the very end.
This whole prophecy was a song!
How cool is that?
When life is rough, and the world is crashing down – set it to music.
That sounds sarcastic but I’m serious.
There is healing in music.
If you don’t believe me, look up the backstory behind the hymn “It is Well With My Soul.”
Here’s one quick essay about it.
Has music been a means of healing in your life?
Tell us how.
