The sermon explores the prophet Habakkuk's struggle to reconcile God's apparent inaction in the face of widespread wickedness and violence, particularly the impending judgment of the Chaldean empire. It examines Habakkuk's bold questioning of God's methods and emphasizes the importance of trusting in God's sovereign work, even when it appears incomprehensible, drawing parallels to the use of seemingly evil instruments in bringing about ultimate good, such as the crucifixion of Christ. The message encourages listeners to look beyond their immediate circumstances and recognize God's larger, often unseen, purposes at work in history, urging faith and wonder in the face of divine mystery.
