Habakkuk – Ken Barnes
I have heard all about you, Lord. I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger, remember your mercy. (Habakkuk 3:2 NLT)
The Prophet Habakkuk was a person like you and me. He looked around him and all he saw was lawlessness. He did not see many of his prayers being answered and was tempted to complain. Yet, by looking to God’s faithfulness in the past, he had hope and faith for the future.
Habakkuk protested about God’s lack of action (Ch.2:3). When God told him how he was going to act, the Prophet grumbled about the Lord using godless Babylon to accomplish his purposes(Ch. 2:12-13). God has his plans and we have ours. We sometimes try to make God fit into our strategies instead ours into his. Habakkuk came out of his funk by looking at the big picture, by seeing the present through the lens of the past, which brought hope for the future. He mused on how God had delivered Israel from Egypt and concluded that he would do the same for Habakkuk and his people (Ch. 3:8,17-18). The Prophet also accepted that a righteous God could use a wicked nation to accomplish his sovereign will.
When things are not going well we are tempted to complain. When unrighteousness prevails, we be tempted to believe that God doesn’t care. We start to think and act like fate and not God’s sovereignty rules the world. God proceeds to reveal Babylon’s downfall, and Habakuk believes God. Faith is always the victory. He remembered God’s faithfulness in the past and he has no reason to believe it will not continue in the future.

"Hi Michael, I was given a copy by a friend about two years ago when I told them I didn’t believe but had an encounter with what I now know was the Holy Spirit prior to reading the book. After reading your book, and being that I’m a cop, the evidence was compelling so the choice became easy. Thank you for being a big part of saving my life and seeing the truth about Jesus. My life has drastically changed for the better!!! I’ve handed out many of your books already, and can hardly wait to give more away! Thank you sir!! And God bless!"

The Spirituality Puzzle
James Rondinone
This book is about accepting a salvation message that proclaims if we respond to it, we will enter into a personal relationship with God, and be admitted to a better place at death.
However, in most cases what we have found is, we become busy doing this or that in the name of some supreme being and one day come to the realization that our life really hasn’t changed at all, and the place we are promised to go when our time is up, we begin to have doubts as to whether we will actually go there.
We will be introduced to four different salvation messages and come to an awareness that our eternal destiny is not based on what we do or don’t do in the name of some supreme being, but that there is one and only one supreme being who has done something for us, which if we accept what this is our life will be changed from within and this spiritual reality will provide for us verification of the future eternal life that is to come.
