Everyone goes to the Book of Revelation or the Book of Daniel for end time events, and to speak generally, there are many prophets to choose from in the Bible (and I like the many, choose also those two books more often than I should, for there are more prophets out there), and Habakkuk stands out in his own way as a true and watchful prophet I believe. But what does he say about the latter days, is just this: his vision was for an appointed time (Hab. 2:2,3); this is a strong prophecy coming, and so I hope I can strongly emphasize it to you: Habakkuk had a special place in time for this end time event, you will not find this any other place, so read carefully, this is valid information, and the program of Gods (perhaps even his weapon against Satan himself): what does he see in his vision? We see him a little in Hab. 2:4,5: he says this man cannot be satisfied, and he says in essence, he has a license to kill, and he goes after all nations, and he heapeth unto him al l people.
Thus, he says him to be: He is a proud man. Not like in Revelation where you get symbols, here you get it straight, pure observation. Hab. 3:8. Habakkuk does not repeat what other prophets have said over and over; he gets right to the details. He tells us world conditions are going to be bad, and they are, and after he talks he ends up with the main figure, the man called the Antichrist. He might start with one country, the EU, but he will not be satisfied, he will go beyond that, he has ambitions, he wants to rule the world. He will raise an army, perhaps small at the beginning but he will have satanic power and help from other sources. What other dictators didnt have he will have, he will be seen as a world savior of sorts. When Habakkuk saw these things he cried. He didnt understand why he saw so much Hab 1:1-4.
What he really was concerned about was that he saw a system like plague spread in and around the world (perhaps terrorism). He saw v iolence, iniquity, grievance, spoiling, strife, riots, uprisings, plots, murders, everything, onto legitimate governments.
Some of the other things I think he saw were countries: confiscating property, taking holdings of money away from people, rigged court trials, concentration camps; He says the accusers were judges, so we will see, and we are seeing in the United States Supreme Court (even in the small and larger courts in Minnesota) as well as half the world, these unfair trials. Gangsters taking over countries; The law is slacked, judgment never goes forth, this is happening in a lot of South American countries (Peru is trying to fix this, and Venezuela, is going backwards in its progress) as well as in China, and Russian right now, and African countries, injustice prevails: as the world sees and looks the other way. It is exactly what he was talking about. I cant anymore keep count of all the countries that are guilty of this. Habakkuk saw this situation spread ing like fire, through the entire world, but Gods redemption would bring this to a standstill.
The prophet knew what God intended to do, we see this in Hab 1:5. It would be a mistake to think God will do nothing, if indeed you believe in God at all, the prophecies are just warnings for the believers, the rest of the world can place them into whatever category makes them feel comfortable, it will do no good, but perhaps satisfy their ego that God does not have control. And lets hope He does, lest we give it to the Antichrist, and then what.
