The PRESS Movement Prayer Podcast

Questions, Chaos, and Confidence: Praying Like Habakkuk

Taquoya Porter Season 2 Episode 50

Have you ever prayed, “God, tell me what You’re thinking” when life feels unfair and overwhelming? That’s exactly where we find the prophet Habakkuk. He looked around and saw violence, corruption, and injustice. It seemed like God was silent. But instead of walking away, Habakkuk pressed into God with honest questions.

In this episode of the Press Movement Podcast, we explore Habakkuk’s powerful dialogue with God. Habakkuk wrestles with the reality of judgment, the problem of evil, and God’s surprising answer—He would use the Chaldeans, a violent nation, as an instrument of judgment. Not the response Habakkuk expected. Yet through his questions, Habakkuk learned a vital truth: “The just shall live by faith.”

We’ll uncover how God isn’t intimidated by our doubts, frustrations, or questions. He invites us to bring them into prayer, not to weaken our faith but to strengthen it. Habakkuk models what it means to remain faithful when we don’t understand God’s plan, to stand watch even when the vision seems delayed, and to live by faith no matter what.

Join us as we discover that prayer really does reach every single situation—even the ones that make no sense at all.
