Habakkuk 1:10-11 | They Laugh at Every Stronghold

You've been on the receiving end of a decision nobody would own. There was nobody to be angry at. Just a call that came down, and when you traced it back you found a policy, or a number, or the way we do it now.

The Chaldeans don't simply take the stronghold. They laugh at it first. And the siege technology is almost insulting: they build up an earthen ramp, piling dirt against the wall until they can walk over the top. Dirt, and time, and nobody in the whole operation willing to say that's enough. Then the last four words of verse eleven give the diagnosis. Whose strength is their god. The strength is the thing they answer to.

Anchored in Habakkuk 1:10-11. Part of The Waiting Season, a walk through the three chapters of Habakkuk.
