In the text of Habakkuk, God wants us to understand and follow what has been written by the prophets, apostles, and disciples. They wrote these words so that we would not be satisfied by the things of this world, but by what He says in His Word and run with it and by it. The Lord provides for all our needs in every aspect of our lives, whether it is physical, emotional, or spiritual.

A Christian song from the 1990s says, "There is a God-shaped hole in all of us." This means that only God can fill and satisfy the cravings we have in our lives. We should not be content with the temporary satisfaction that the world offers. Instead, we should hunger for more of God. He wants us to seek Him, to marvel at His glory. The enemy seeks to satisfy himself with greed and pride, and he tempts us to do the same.
