Judah has been faithless [unfaithful to the covenant], and abomination [egregious sin] has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem [all over the land and even in the Holy City]. For Judah [the people of God] has profaned the sanctuary of the Lord, which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god [committed spiritual adultery, which is idolatry]. May the Lord cut off [divorce] from the tents of Jacob [promise and covenant] any descendant of the man who does this, who brings an offering to the Lord of hosts! —  Malachi 2:11-12 
 
So can we agree that God is a little hacked off right here? But I want you to understand why he's so angry. And the best way to illustrate this is using the covenant of marriage. 
 
So let's say me and my wife get married. Which we are. And let's say together we make a covenant to God to be faithful to him all the days of our lives, which we have done. But then, let's say one day, I choose to be unfaithful on a trip. I sleep with another woman and give no thought to my wife, just to my own sexual desires. I break my covenant. We would say I have been intentionally unfaithful. This is called adultery. It has happened because, in my heart, I have idolized another woman. Idolatry has led to adultery. On top of this, I have broken the covenant I made to God with my wife. And even worse, I have put my family and another family in a challenging position. 
 
So, how do you think my wife will respond in this situation? 
 
Well, she's going to be pretty hurt and angry. I have broken a covenant I made with her. But remember, I have made a covenant with my wife but to God. So while I have hurt and offended my wife, the person I have broken the covenant with is God. Marriage is God's idea and his institution, not ours. 
 
So let's take this example and reconsider this text. God made a covenant with his people. But the problem is his people have not been faithful to him. They have been committing idolatry which is synonymous with adultery. They have been sleeping around with other gods. And while they thought nothing of this, all this egregious sin was abhorrent to God. And yet these adulterers continue to come to the Temple. They continue to offer sacrifices to God. And they continue to expect God to bless them. Remember, these people were pretty angry that God was not blessing them. But God isn't gonna bless them. He is going to reject them and all their descendants. Just like my wife isn't going to bless me if I am sleeping around. 
 
The lesson is this. Don't take lightly any covenant you have made with God. He does not take lightly the covenant he made with you. His covenant cost his Son his life. He is willing to give it all for you, and he expects the same. So be faithful and be blessed in the faithfulness. 
 
ASK THIS: Is there anything you need to get right today? 
 
DO THIS: Refresh the covenant. 
 
PRAY THIS: God, thank you for the covenant you have made with me. I am making a new covenant with you. 
 
PLAY THIS: All Creation.

Spoken Gospel

This Bible study devotional covers Malachi 1:1-2:16. In this passage, Israel's prolonged national crisis leads the people to doubt God's love, causing priests to dishonor God with diseased sacrifices and men to abandon their wives for political alliances. 
 
As always, we are committed to showing you how to see the good news of the Gospel in every passage of Scripture. In Malachi 1:1-2:16, we see that when everything seems to prove God doesn't care, Jesus demonstrates God's consistent love by becoming the perfect sacrifice – showing that no circumstance can separate us from God's devotion.

FAITHFULLNESS IN THE FAMILY AS A BELIEVER (Malachi 2:13-15)

Bethesda Baptist Church Nairobi

1. And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. 
 
2 If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. 
 
3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it. 
 
4 And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts. 
 
5 My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name. 
 
6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity. 
 
7 For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts. 
 
8 But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts. 
 
9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law. 
 
10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers? 
 
11 Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god. 
 
12 The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts. 
 
13 And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand. 
 
14 Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. 
 
15 And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. 
 
16 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. 
 
17 Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?

1. And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you.

2 If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.

3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.

4 And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.

5 My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.

6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

Rescue Mission of Mahoning Valley

Malachi 2:1-16 
The Lord Rebukes the Priests 
 
“And now, O priests, this command is for you. 2 If you will not listen, if you will not take it to heart to give honor to my name, says the Lord of hosts, then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings. Indeed, I have already cursed them, because you do not lay it to heart. 3 Behold, I will rebuke your offspring,[a] and spread dung on your faces, the dung of your offerings, and you shall be taken away with it.[b] 4 So shall you know that I have sent this command to you, that my covenant with Levi may stand, says the Lord of hosts. 5 My covenant with him was one of life and peace, and I gave them to him. It was a covenant of fear, and he feared me. He stood in awe of my name. 6 True instruction[c] was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he turned many from iniquity. 7 For the lips of a priest should guard knowledge, and people[d] should seek instruction from his mouth, for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts. 8 But you have turned aside from the way. You have caused many to stumble by your instruction. You have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says the Lord of hosts, 9 and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, inasmuch as you do not keep my ways but show partiality in your instruction.” 
 
Judah Profaned the Covenant 
 
10 Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us? Why then are we faithless to one another, profaning the covenant of our fathers? 11 Judah has been faithless, and abomination has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem. For Judah has profaned the sanctuary of the Lord, which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god. 12 May the Lord cut off from the tents of Jacob any descendant[e] of the man who does this, who brings an offering to the Lord of hosts! 
 
13 And this second thing you do. You cover the Lord's altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand. 14 But you say, “Why does he not?” Because the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. 15 Did he not make them one, with a portion of the Spirit in their union?[f] And what was the one God[g] seeking?[h] Godly offspring. So guard yourselves[i] in your spirit, and let none of you be faithless to the wife of your youth. 16 “For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her,[j] says the Lord, the God of Israel, covers[k] his garment with violence, says the Lord of hosts. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and do not be faithless.”

Malachi 2:1-16
The Lord Rebukes the Priests

“And now, O priests, this command is for you. 2 If you will not listen, if you will not take it to heart to give honor to my name, says the Lord of hosts, then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings. Indeed, I have already cursed them, because you do not lay it to heart. 3 Behold, I will rebuke your offspring,[a] and spread dung on your faces, the dung of your offerings, and you shall be taken away with it.[b] 4 So shall you know that I have sent this command to you, that my covenant with Levi may stand, says the Lord of hosts. 5 My covenant with him was one of life and peace, and I gave them to him. It was a covenant of fear, and he feared me. He stood in awe of my name. 6 True instruction[c] was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips.
