Famine threatened. Violence and social injustice filled the land. Habakkuk the prophet had every reason to sink into despair. Where was God in these turbulent times? Martyn Lloyd-Jones was one of the twentieth century's foremost preaches and Bible teachers. The parallels he draws between the message of Habakkuk and the crisis-ridden West are till powerfully relevant to our own times. Here is the secret of the problem of history. No event, however catastrophic, fails to find a place in God's loving purpose for humanity. Habakkuk's great assertion of faith, in the midst of enormous personal upheaval and emotional strain, can be ours: 'Yet I will rejoice in the Lord ... The Sovereign Lord is my strength.'--Back cover ER -
