Habakkuk 2:1-4 King James Version 2 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
17 And who made God angry for forty years? Wasn’t it the people who sinned, whose corpses lay in the wilderness?
9-10 Regarding life together and getting along with each other, you don’t need me to tell you what to do. You’re God-taught in these matters. Just love one another! You’re already good at it; your friends all over the province of Macedonia are the evidence. Keep it up; get better and better at it.
11-12 Stay calm; mind your own business; do your own job. You’ve heard all this from us before, but a reminder never hurts. We want you living in a way that will command the respect of outsiders, not lying around sponging off your friends.
I love this translation because it talks about something that we as Christians sometimes don’t. That is a job. We are supposed to be working. There is nothing wrong with hard work. Desire for God to give you a job and to work. Enjoy today’s daily bread.
We have to understand that God is good, but he rejects the proud.
18 Pride goes before destruction,
and haughtiness before a fall.
He is Father and He chastens those whom he loves. With that being said understand that you will drink the cup of His wrath if you continue in disobedience and rebellion.
11 I am coming soon.[a] Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take away your crown.
