Psalm 9: God, the Sovereign Lord of history, with justice and righteousness, holds civilizations and individuals accountable.

As God offers the five reasons why He will judge Babylon, Habakkuk then presents a praise hymn to God celebrating His splendour, power and righteous judgment.

Habakkuk cannot understand how a holy God could use a pagan nation to judge His people—but God reminds him of His sovereignty, His goodness and His purpose in discipline.

Habakkuk, God’s prophet, questions why God has not judged Judah for its idolatry, corruption and immorality; God’s answer is surprising.

Although Jonah obeys God and preaches His message, Jonah is upset that God showed mercy and compassion to Nineveh.

From the belly of the “great fish,” Jonah confesses his rebellion, repents and worships His God.

Commanded by the LORD to go to Nineveh in ruthless Assyria, Jonah goes in the opposite direction, openly defying His God.

The resurrected Jesus continues to serve as He makes breakfast for 7 of the disciples and restores Peter with the three-fold, piercing question, “Do you love me?”

The resurrection of Jesus is followed by several appearances of the risen Lord to various women and to His disciples, validating His literal, bodily resurrection.

John testifies to the final trial before Pilate, the crucifixion and burial of Jesus.
