Habakkuk glorified the power and majesty of God. It is good to praise God like this, and God\u2019s people need to do more of it. It is good to praise God because it gives appropriate honor and glory to God, it declares God\u2019s specific works, it teaches and reminds us of who God is and what He has done, it places man in proper perspective under God, and it builds confidence in the power and works of God.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Do you ever wonder what is proper praise and worship of God?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>How do you get to the place in your hearts and minds where praise and worship flow out.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>God revealed and Habakkuk saw the judgment, anger, and wrath of God coming because of the defiance and rebellion of His people.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Habakkuk prayed for revival and in this prayer he called out to God with praise and worship, remembering who God is.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Nothing else is worthy of the praise and worship of God.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>He alone is worthy.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>When our hearts, minds, and souls are intentionally committed to honor, serve, follow, obey, rely, and trust God our hearts will overflow with praise and worship of Him.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>When our eyes to our hearts and ears to our minds are clouded with things of this world, and the Word of God is neglected and void in our desires, what should be praise and worship are turned into worry and fear and defeat.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Habakkuk remembered the power of God and how He has control over all things.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It confirmed in his heart and mind that nothing is impossible for God.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>We certainly have a lot that could cloud our eyes and deafen our ears to things of God. A global pandemic, riots, confusion, fear, foolish thoughts on what is right and wrong, division, hatred, defiance of God, wars, plagues \u2026\u2026<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>You have to wonder how much more chaos needs to happen before mankind and nations will recognize the hand of God in all of this and only in and through His power and glory will it stop. In all of this God is in control and His plans and purposes are perfect.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Mankind attempts to deny God\u2019s hand in these happenings and you don\u2019t have to see and hear much news to know their hearts are full of pride and defiance and void of fear\/reverence of God.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Do you want to see and end to all that is happening?
