Habakkuk 3:19
v. 19: Habakkuk explains why he can rejoice: The Lord God is my strength; he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon my high places (Habakkuk 3:19 a). God gives him strength to face problems. Even when there is no food, God gives spiritual strength and comfort. Like a deer running fast and sure, God will help him move forward quickly and safely. God will help him win and return to his land (Deuteronomy 32:13; 33:29 b). This shows that prayer can turn fear into joy. Habakkuk shares his experience with others, giving his prayer as a song for the whole church. Even in captivity, he encourages them to have hope and to sing, knowing that God will help them again.
