HIGH PLACES OF HEAVENLY SOLACE

You have studied the Book of Habakkuk.

- Yes, I constantly refer to it, particularly the last three verses of its three chapters.

Hab 3:17-19  Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:  (18)  Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.  (19)  The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.

Why do you dwell on these three verses?

- They show that an upward escape from downward experiences is available to those who rejoice in the Lord, and joy in the God of their salvation.

What is special about hinds' feet?

- They are designed to be sure.
