Pamphlet 1679 Habakkuk kc 2-2
Let us embrace our Father's Word and see what Habakkuk saw.
It is written by the prophet Joel, whose words were quoted by the apostle Peter in Acts 2 on that first Pentecost Day following the resurrection, that in the last days the sons and daughters would see "visions" which means that they would understand (see with their eyes to see) the "foretellings" of the prophets and they would begin to prophesy, which is to teach the visions of the prophets to their brothers and sisters. Do you have "eyes to see" the visions the prophets saw?Habakkuk 1:1
The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
Habakkuk cries out in anguish as he sees his people and his nation in big, big trouble economically, politically, and spiritually. Again, we must be patient and continue to "embrace" the Lord BECAUSE He has a marvelous and wondrous work planned for this final generation. In fact, we shall see a few verses hence that it is written that even if a person knows "the plan" ahead of time, it is so unbelievably wondrous that he must actually see it to believe it, which is to say one cannot imagine the magnitude of that which shall occur.[2] O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!
If you understand that this is a "vision" then it is easy to understand Habakkuk's words and to know that there is a very good reason why God shows His servants ahead of time, through the prophets, the severity of the iniquity and oppression to befall our people. So get ready and prepare yourselves 'cause "You ain't seen nothin' yet!"[3] Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.
Even so, we can already "see" how captive our people already are and how they are oppressed more and more each day in both word and deed. The serpent has already bitten them (nashak in Hebrew, Strong's 5391) and they are now economically enslaved to a debt system economy and their hearts (minds) do already fail them for fear (Luke 21:26), i.e. for the fear of being stung* by the scorpions who control the reigns of political correctness and destroy whomsoever they will in the public forum (the media) or in the courts of injustice. Free speech? Not anymore pal, for there is now a big price to pay if you step out of line!
Note: In so far as the Four Hidden Dynasties of Politics, Education, Economics, and Religion are used to control the minds and lives of people, you could say that in kowtowing to political correctness they are submitting to PEER pressure!
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
