The Great & Terrible Day of the LORD

God's people had stopped fearing the Lord.

And in that exact moment—into a weary, rebellious, doubting people—God speaks.
And here’s the word He gives in Malachi chapter 4:
“The day is coming…”
This is not a vague maybe. 
Not a soft warning. 
This is a divine certainty. 

A day of fire and finality. 
A day of joy and healing for the righteous, and a day of total reckoning for the arrogant and wicked.

The Great Divide

In this passage, God doesn’t just overhear their complaints—He records them.

He listens to both the grumblers and the faithful. And He draws a clear line between those who merely use His name and those who truly fear it.

Today, we’re going to step right into that same conversation.

Trust of Rust

This is the only section of Malachi that we ever hear preached and that is usually out of context.  As one attender said of this sermon, "That's the first time I ever heard any Pastor preach that text accurately". Take a listen and see for yourself.

The Justice of God

You may have spent your life demanding justice for others while pleading for mercy for yourself. But today, God is calling you out of the judge’s seat and into the defendant’s chair.

Malachi’s audience wanted justice—until they realized they were the ones on trial. And so are we.

Guard your Growth

God’s desire for marriages is not only about the relationship between the husband and wife, but it also directly impacts the next generation.  When we honor God in our marriages, it builds a strong foundation for our children to grow and thrive.

Christian Metamorphosis

Marriage God's Way

God’s plan for marriage is simple yet profound: it’s meant to be a lifelong partnership, built on love, companionship, and faithfulness.  Marriage is not just about sharing life together, but about reflecting God’s love and commitment to us.

Fractured Family

As we reflect on God’s covenant and the call to holiness in our marriages, let us remember that we are called to protect our identity as the people of God.  Marriage is not just a personal decision but a sacred covenant that impacts our relationship with God and the future of our children.

Covenantal Consequence

"Is God’s glory really my gain?" We might affirm this with our words, but the question is, do our lives reflect this truth? God’s glory is not just a theological statement; it’s a lived reality. When we align our lives with His commands, when we live in reverence and awe, we experience the fullness of life He promises—a life of peace, purpose, and joy.
