God created human beings in his own image to have a unique relationship with him. Because of our sin that relationship is broken. But God has provided redemption through Jesus to restore us to blessed peace with God. Our hearts should sing with joy over God’s great grace!

How To Despise God's Name
God has no patience for lukewarm worship. The ho-hum, half-hearted, disdainful attitude that was displayed in Malachi’s day did not hurt God’s feelings. It enraged him!
If we really believe God is a great and awesome God, how dare we treat him in such a shabby way? We should come in awe and trembling, offering him our very best! When we do not, we are despising God's name.

God's Love
It was only three generations after an important time of revival in Israel. Already people had grown cold. They were going through the motions, but they cheated in their tithes. They offered defective sacrifices. They were corrupt, unjust and abusing the poor.
God has a message for them through his prophet Malachi. “Don’t think you are going to get away with this.” He loves them too much to let them behave this way.
