Three Assurances

God gives Habakkuk three great assurances:
1. The assurance of God's grace
2. The assurance of God's glory
3. The assurance of God's government.
God tells Habakkuk that the righteous shall live by his faith. He then tells him that the world will be filled with the knowledge of His glory. His glory is over all the earth but not everyone sees the glory but there is coming a day when the whole world will know of His glory. Finally He tells Habakkuk that He is in His holy temple, He is in control, He is sovereign.
When we think about God's glory we are reminded that His glory is visible in creation, in the church, and in the cross. Often we do not see His glory but someday the whole world will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord.
