Description
Micah prophesied at a time when God's people were living in relative prosperity. In fact, they struggled with the materialism of the day and as a result their faith was deteriorating. He spoke to them about days of great blessing ahead, not through their political leaders but through One who would be born in Bethlehem whose origins were from eternity past.
Nahum is a prophecy to the nation of Assyria, who at this time was at the height of its power. He prophesied of its downfall and goes into great poetic detail describing the battle that would cost them their nation.
Habakkuk watched the Babylonians rise in power and struggled with what they were doing to his nation. In a very human way he questions God about why his people should suffer at the hands of such cruel warriors. God reminds Habakkuk, that despite what he was seeing around him, He had never once relinquished control. In time, God's people would see His purpose. At present it was for them to live by faith in their sovereign God.
Often forgotten books of the Bible, these prophecies are as relevant today as they always were. Each chapter is concluded with some points for prayer and some questions to consider to help the reader apply the truth of each section to their present day life.
