As we turn to Malachi chapter 2 today we will use the same 4 points to organize what the prophet presents.  Let’s focus on what we should appreciate? 

The priests were God’s primary focus in this chapter.  If they were unfaithful to God, then it’s not surprising if the people follow their example, and face the same condemnation.  On the flip side, if the priests did what God called them to do, God would fulfill His covenantal promise of life and peace, vs. 5. 

God planned an abundant life for His people, much like what Jesus described in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”  That’s what God had and still has in mind for everyone who trusts in Him, abundant and eternal life.  Since God is our creator He knows what and how to fix, whatever might be out of sink with His plan, and is committed to doing that by covenantal promise. 

Do you appreciate what God has in mind and desires to accomplish in and through your life?  That’s why He sent His son, Jesus Christ.  John 1:4 says, “In him was life.”  Luke 2:14 says the angelic chorus praised God in announcing the birth of Jesus, saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace in men on whom his favor rests.”  And Ephesians 2:10 declares, “We are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works.” 

Do you appreciate God’s covenantal promise?
