Habakkuk 3:19
The Lord God is my strength;
He will make my feet like deer’s feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills.
To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments.

Application: 

Habakkuk praises God for his splendor, brilliance, and power (3:3-4). No one can stand before him; he makes the earth tremble (3:5-15). In time, he will save [his] people (3:13). But, in the meantime, Habakkuk would have to quietly wait for the day of distress to come against the invaders (3:16).

Sometimes, amid trouble, we, too, must be patient, trusting God’s promises and following his agenda for us. That was the posture behind Habakkuk’s declaration, …Though the fig tree does not bud … the flocks disappear … yet I will celebrate in the Lord; I will rejoice in the God of my salvation (3:17-18). 

In other words, whatever happens to me, I’ll praise the God who saves me because he is my strength (3:19). When you know God’s character (who he is) and his works (what he has done), you’ll know that you can trust him—even in the dark.
