We imperil our own souls when we marginalize the prophetic visions in the Old Testament, when we set the Old Testament aside as a message to Ancient Israel and not us. Almost sixty percent of the Scripture by book (almost 75% by verse) is in the older record of what God had to say to all of us-not just Israel. Assuming this record is only an ancient literary work fails to consider the passion by which our Creator directed biblical history.There is, in other words, a pulsating love that throbs behind every word in the text and we should be feeling it. Isaiah chapter five and Habakkuk's prayer are throbbing with a passionate divine interest in us and the times in which we live. Some of this emphasis may be lost in translation. This booklet represents a desire to capture some of the nuance that suggests urgency and an importance for our world. As Habakkuk shows: It is in prayer our eyes our opened to a spiritual reality, to another interpretation of our circumstances, of life itself in Christ [1 John 5:11]. And even if Isaiah nor Habakkuk could say all this before Calvary, there is that prophetic glimpse into a higher, divine, purpose behind what was about to happen in Judah when God chose Habakkuk to join Isaiah in warning them of God's imperative to repent. What God did, God does.
