From time to time everyone needs a revival and there is no better time to take stock of one’s spiritual pulse than at the beginning of a New Year.

In Habakkuk 3:2, the prophet Habakkuk takes stock of the spiritual environment around him. He reveals that he had heard of the LORD’s fame, but it is no longer evident in his day. Perhaps he had heard about the Lord providing a lamb in the nick of time for Abraham’s sacrifice (Genesis 22: 12-14).
