In Habakkuk 3, we find the response of the prophet to God's reply to his lament. And because of that response he is able to say with confidence, that his God saves. We, too, as Christians proclaim that our God saves, and as we look at the cross, testify to the meaning and message of salvation in our lives. But sometimes we leave a piece out - sin. Specifically how God dealt with the sin in our lives. Salvation is not just a gift that gets us into Heaven someday, its a gift that changes our lives and cleanses us of our sins in this life. Yes, we may still struggle with sin from time to time, but our hearts and lives are changed.
We worship a God who offers salvation not just for the future, but for the present as well. God must deal with the sin in our lives and cleanse us of it. Praise be to God for the gift of total salvation!
