Habakkuk 2:1 | I Will Stand at My Watch

About a month ago a drum mic started ringing in the middle of a song, and the room sang through it.

Habakkuk 2:1 is the hinge of the book. After a chapter of complaint, the prophet climbs his own city wall and takes the watchman's post, looking out for what God will say and what he'll have to answer back about his own complaint. He expects an answer, and he expects it might land on him. Ryan tells the story of a feedback ring his sound guy couldn't find while the song kept going, and what it taught him about staying at a post when the fix isn't in your hands yet. Every one of you in the building while the parking lot is still empty has a post. Stay up there anyway.

Anchored in Habakkuk 2:1. Part of The Waiting Season, a walk through the three chapters of Habakkuk.
