Are these old books of the prophets still relevant in our world today?  Oh yes, if God is still relevant then what He has written most certainly is as well!  This little book of Habakkuk, given by God through His prophet, is a study of the character of our God in His dealing with man.  We also find in this book of prophecy a very relevant study on the nature of man.  It is a vision of sinful man facing the holy God, who deals with us in justice.  And yet the core promise of the Bible is here – the just shall find life from God by faith, simply by believing Him for His promise.

This Reading Companion was developed in a Bible study context, presenting practical truths that have proven helpful over the years to scores of sincere seekers of truth. Our purpose in our study of the age-old truths of God’s history, poetry, and prophecy is first to understand. Then we seek to apply God’s truth to our own real-life circumstances. Related verses of the Bible head the pages on which they are explained and applied, that God’s words might always remain in our focus.

Oh may the Lord use my humble efforts toward your gain and growth. Such pleasure is mine in hearing of one helped. May you find promise and warning here to guide your will and way.
