When the world feels like it is falling apart, the prophet Habakkuk asked the same questions we ask today. God, where are you? When will you act? The answer was not what he expected, and it may not be what we expect either.

Pastor Scott walked us through the book of Habakkuk this week, revealing a truth that cuts deep: God is in control even when things get worse before they get better. The woes God speaks over Babylon sound eerily familiar in our culture today. Theft, extortion, exploitation, and idolatry are not ancient problems.

But Habakkuk's response is the challenge for all of us. Though the fig tree does not bud and the fields produce nothing (Habakkuk 3:17-18), he chose to rejoice in the Lord anyway. That is the question for each of us this week. No matter what surrounds you, have you decided to praise him anyway?

The world around us can feel uncertain. Injustice is real. Things don’t always seem to be getting better. And sometimes, it can leave us wondering: Where is God in all of this?

Habakkuk wrestled with those same questions.

And yet, before his circumstances changed, he made a choice:

“Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.” — Habakkuk 3:18

That’s the heart of Praise Him Anyway.

Not praise because everything is easy.
Not praise because every prayer has already been answered.
But praise because God is still faithful, God is still just, and God is still worthy.

If the world has felt a little heavy lately, this message is worth hearing.

God's discipline is not punishment for its own sake — it is the love of a Father who refuses to let His children stay lost. In Jeremiah 29, God tells the exiles something unexpected: settle in, build, plant, pray for the very city holding you captive. Why? Because He had a plan, and the plan required surrender first.

Jeremiah 29:11 is one of the most quoted verses in Scripture, but the ten verses before it remind us that God's promise of a hopeful future often comes wrapped in a season of correction. The prosperity He promises follows the discipline He sends.

Hebrews 12 calls us to fix our eyes on Jesus when hardship comes and to receive that hardship as the training of a loving Father. The question is not whether God has a plan for your life. The question is whether you are willing to seek Him with all of your heart to find it.

Could your hard season be an invitation from God instead of just an obstacle?
In this week’s sermon, Pastor Scott walked through Jeremiah 29 and Hebrews 12, reminding us that God disciplines those He loves so we can become more like Him.

Let us know in the comments: what has God been teaching you lately?
