What happens when faithfulness falters? Malachi confronts the people of Israel about their unfaithfulness to God and to one another. Their compromised worship and broken relationships reveal the deeper issue: hearts that have drifted from God’s covenant. This message explores how we, too, can fall into patterns of half-hearted devotion and relational betrayal. Yet God’s call to faithfulness invites us to realign our hearts, honor our commitments, and experience His blessing. Through this passage, we’ll discover what it means to guard our spirits and live as covenant keepers in a world that often disregards sacred promises.
Does Everyone Deserve God’s Grace?
“Grace.” It’s a beautiful word and something that we all hope will be shown to us when we sin. But could you name people who you feel don’t deserve grace — people who have personally wronged you and hurt you, or those who are committing terrible evil in the world in general? If so, this message will help you see that you don’t deserve grace any more than they do, and yet God has lavished His grace upon you. The Bible says you have been given grace upon grace! Having freely received God’s grace despite our sin, do we really have grounds for withholding grace from others? Maybe it’s time to find out for sure!
