In this powerful episode of the Delighted Discourse podcast, I dive deep into the third chapter of Habakkuk, exploring the prophet's profound shift from doubt and frustration to awe, wonder, and worship. We witness a dramatic transformation in Habakkuk's tone as he recalls God's mighty acts of deliverance and shifts his focus from the current crisis to God's past faithfulness.

Join me as I reflect on the importance of remembering God's past deeds, which anchor us in our stormy seasons, and how this remembrance leads to a powerful declaration of faith. Through personal anecdotes, reflections, and a touching story about a little girl named Ashley, I illustrate the significance of holding onto the 'diamond' of God's faithfulness and mercy.

Let's explore how Habakkuk's journey from complaint to reverence can inspire us to trust God's unchanging nature, omnipresence, and good works. This episode reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we can find strength and hope by recalling God's past faithfulness and calling upon His mercy.
