The simple gospel message can change a life when we simply believe. The Lord desires for us to be in a state of continual surrender. The more we say no to the gospel the harder our hearts become.

In today's lesson we learn the importance of listening to the Lord and how we should pray. Habakkuk was praying for God to revive the people of Israel, even through they were deserving of judgement.

It is no coincidence that God is in the details. We can see God even in the little things. He hears our every cry and He wants to reveal himself to you.

In chapter 1 of Habakkuk we see a warning concerning the nature of the self centered life. God alone knows who or what will be the most effective to break us and humble us. It is better that we first humble ourselves before the Lord chooses to humble us.

In today's study, the Apostle Paul shares his testimony to a mob of Jews in Jerusalem expressing his past life under the law, but now a new man in Christ Jesus. However, Paul's life is threatened once again and after being bound, he declares his Roman citizenship sparing him from a more severe punishment.

We must continually walk in humility because God can humble anyone who he chooses. You reap what you sow and corruption cancels all strength.

Paul faces persecution from the Jews in Jerusalem as he preaches salvation by grace alone and through faith alone.

The Lord knows those that trust in Him and He is their avenger. Pride goes before destruction.

Paul ends his 3rd missionary journeying from Miletus to Caesarea all the while being warned that chains & tribulations await him on the way to Jerusalem, but he is unmoved desiring only to finish his race & ministry to preach the gospel of grace.

Isaac Medina details the key identifiers to rejoicing in the Lord! "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God" Philippians 4:6-7
