THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY HIS FAITH / HABAKKUK 2:4

(KJV) Habakkuk 2:4

 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

In light of God’s revelation about how (and when) He is working, His people are to be patient and live by faith.

1. It is “the righteous” – those who entrust their lives to God and do what is right according to His standards – who will come through victorious in the end. 
2. The righteous are contrasted with the proud and the ungodly, whose life choices and direction oppose God. The hearts of the righteous are devoted to God; they want to be His children, to have close fellowship with Him and to obey His plans and desires. 
3. The righteous must rely on God to accomplish His purposes for them in this world. This kind of “faith” implies an active and lasting trust in God. It is evidence of a personal loyalty to Him as Savior and Lord (The Leader and authority over their lives) and a moral commitment to follow His plans. 

 This phrase, “the righteous will live by his faith,” or a form of it, is used throughout the New Testament to support the teaching that people are saved by grace (God’s undeserved favor) through faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9). Paul develops the theme in Romans 1:17 and Galatians 3:11, and the writer to the Hebrews emphasizes that God’s people must continue to live by faith in order to please God (Hebrews 10:38; 11:6).
