.... Look at his fantastic conclusion ... 
"The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments" [Habakkuk 3:19].
** JUDGMENT IS COMING. **
The Bible says there is coming a time of 'holocaust' conditions upon earth, and men's hearts will be "fainting for fear for all the things that are coming upon the earth" (Luke 21:26), and it cannot be stopped!
In Australia because of the Albanese labour government, a new era of violence (like what we see in England) will cover the whole country.
The indiscretionary open borders (a disease of UN globalist suicide agenda) of immigration to known, hidden and undetected terrorist elements and the resultant violence, hatred and anti-semitism, is now just beginning to flood our country.
People as old as our senior population, are horrified at the hatred and emotionally violent expressions illustrated on our streets, promoted by Islamic activitism in support of terrorist organisations which is all illegal and contrary to Australian law.
** THE DECIDING FACTOR OF JUDGMENT! **
"And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth" [Genesis 6:13]
Violence (among other things) was the barometer and trigger of the flood judgment in Noah's time and Jesus said ... "As it was in the days of Noah so shall be also in the coming of the son of man".
Just think about it, violence everywhere across the whole globe - war conflicts in the middle east:
The horrendous Jihadist attack against the non military population of Israel and violent capture of hostages on October 7th 2023.
The take over of the Assad regime in Syria, by a rebel Islamic faction. Putin and the Russian war on Ukraine. The Iranian axis of evil promoting an Islamic terror network, in Gaza through Hamas, in Lebanon through Hezbollah and through the Houthis in Yemen.
Not to mention the violent subjugation of the populations of the world during the covid plandemic mayhem.
In Australia, unprecedented draconian, rough authoritative treatment of control with a complementry voice for the "new world order"!
A few years ago there was a statistic claim that only 11 countries were free from some sort of violent war like conflict.
Dear Christian, we can be greatly encouraged, that right now we are in the same place that Habakkuk was. Resting in the glorious promises of God that we will be out of here, promoted to the highest place, before the boil over!
"In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed" [1 Corinthians 15:52].
4 GREAT CONSOLATIONS HABAKKUK REJOICED IN!
*1). He knew the Lord. This Christmas make it your highest quest to simply Know the Lord more; for out of that experience is the A-Z of spiritual growth and spiritual maturity. The Last thing Peter wrote was - "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen" [2 Peter 3:18]. Those were the last words penned by the apostle Peter. Hosea said .... "Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord" [Hosea 6:3].
Paul said .... "That I may know Him and the power of his resurrection" [Philippians 3:10].
*2). Habakkuk said ... "The Lord God is my strength" [Vs 19].
Paul's prayer for the Ephesian saints was .. "That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be
strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with
all saints" [Ephesians 3:16-19].
From the above verses, as we get a vision of "the riches of his glory" we are "strengthened with might" to yield to the Lord and his control.
How do we get a vision of the "riches of his glory"? Refer 2 Corinthians 3:18 - "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass (the Word of God) the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord".
We "behold the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ" [2 Corinthians 4:6] Thus, the more we see the "riches of his glory" that is found in a vision of Christ through the Word, the more we are changed and strengthened.
*3). "He will make my feet like hinds feet" [vs 19]. Now strengthened In Christ we have hinds feet to leap to "high places" [vs 19]. What a great encouragement! we are told that we are seated in Heavenly places in Christ and are all called to "press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus" [Philippians 3:14].
Praise the Lord that we are seated in such a heavenly high place in Christ, but Habakkuk then says ...
*4). "and he will make me to walk upon mine high places" [vs 19].
It is all so great to be lifted up in Christ into such a high place and given the strength by the Spirit to have leaping power like hinds feet and yet how dismal can be our actual success at being able to
consistantly "walk" upon those high places!
Yet here is the great encouragement - the Lord through hard lessons and sometimes
through tears, lovingly as Habakkuk said ... "he Will Make me to walk
upon mine high places"! What beautiful closing words! What
faithfulness and love Habakkuk found in the Lord. We can't do it, but
the Lord can. We can't get there in our own strength but the Lord will
strengthen with might by his Spirit in the inner man that Christ may be
made room for, to totally dwell and fully occupy the supreme place in
our hearts by faith: So, more and more we not only "leap" to the
high ground like having "hinds feet", but learn by his grace to walk "in
the Spirit" and walk with joy (like Habakkuk), in that high (new
Testament) place of the "high calling of God in Christ Jesus".
