Habakkuk's Powerful Prophetic Prayer
As I read Habakkuk's prayer in chapter 3 of his book, my spirit grabbed onto it for our nation and for this COVID-19 pandemic. Pray and decree his powerful prayer with me as we finish 2020 strong and begin 2021 even stronger.
1 "A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth."
Shigionoth is a musical term. The Hebrew word means to praise with strong emotion and impassioned triumph.
So, we have 3 instructional words: Pray, prophesy, and praise with strong emotion (James 5:16) and impassioned triumph (victorious mindset).
2 "O Lord, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy."
Heard - listen for His heart
Fear - Reverently approach Him
Revive - Pray for revival
Known - pray for Him to make Himself known
Wrath - acknowledge that judgment is deserved and needed
Mercy - ask for Him to be merciful in judgment.
3 "God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise."
God came! He answers our prayers! From the east (Teman & Mt Paran), the Holy One comes. Like a new day, like the rising of the sun, He comes. SELAH.
Just pause and worship that He manifests His holy presence when we pray, prophesy, and praise. He shows up! Prophesy a new day.
His glory shows up! His glory covers the heavens and the earth is full of His praise. Habakkuk prophesied that God granted and sent revival. He revealed Himself and made Himself known again in the earth.
4 "And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power."
"His brightness was as light" - I read this chapter/verse on Dec 22nd, the day after that wonderous Christmas star appeared (Jupiter and Saturn's great conjunction).
Horns - rays of light stretching across the sky like powerful hands.
Yet, He was hiding or holding back His power. That's a good thing! Be thankful that in His mercy, He holds back His power. Even though He was holding back, look what He did:
5 "Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet."
Decree with me: COVID-19 flea before the Almighty Lord! You are so last year. Your season of terror and death is over in Jesus' name. Our prayers, prophecies, and praise have ushered in His presence and His glory. The Lord's brightness is driving you out. His rays of glory are consuming your strangling tentacles of control. You have been judged in coals of fire and are running in terror.
6 "He stood (in coals of fire), and measured the earth: he beheld and drove asunder the nations, and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting."
God came! His glory came! Jesus came! Revival is coming! And with it, comes judgment (measured). He will judge the nations. He will scatter the mountains (cause to fall like an avalanche) or bring down evil principalities and powers with great force. Force the hills to bow - proud, wicked, and corrupt men will be humbled.
His ways are everlasting. He will have His way! He is Lord!
Just worship Him. He is doing a mighty work. Keep believing for it.
Let's finish 2020 and start 2021 with strong FAITH. Partner with Him by praying, prophesying, and praising with strong emotion (James 5:16) and impassioned triumph (victorious mindset).
