Let's Read: Psalm 95 Malachi 1 and 2
"For from the rising of the sun to its setting,
My Name is great among the nations.
Anywhere they burn incense in honor of my name And
it provides a pure offering;
For great is My name among nations,
says the LORD of hosts. "
Malachi 1: 11
Meditate:
- Why would the psalmist invites us he was celebrating the Lord (Psalm 95)? We invited there to praise Him alone? Who can harden in the life (vs. 7b are.)? Today is another day of His grace!
- What's wrong with priests Malachi (Malachi 1: 6 th., 12 - 14)? Illustration of what he uses to highlight the lack of respect for the Lord (vs. 8)? Yet the Word of God made its way among the nations (vs. 11)!
- What other reproaches the Lord made it to the priests (3: 1, 8)? And what He criticizes the people (vs. 11, 13, 14 to 15, 17)? Observe that the Old Testament ends by highlighting the spiritual foundation of love and fidelity within marriage.
Sing: "From sunrise to sunset, bless (JEM 236)
Pray for the islands of Guam, Johnson, Midway and Wake :
