If you and I are going to grow in faith in this life, then no matter what happens... no matter our suffering, our trials, our woes... we must trust with all our heart that every word the Lord says is true.

Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:6 "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied". Seek first Christ and his righteousness and find the satisfied life!

Does your life in Christ look different today than it did a year ago? Are you growing closer to Him—or drifting further away? In this final message of the series, we reflect on the closing verses of Malachi. Here, God calls His people to turn their hearts away from the empty temptations of the world—things that ultimately lead to a life without purpose. Instead, He invites us to turn our hearts toward Him. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.

What does it mean to fear the name of the Lord? In the NIV translation of the Bible, the word fear is often translated as reverence—a posture of awe, honor, and worship before the one true God. In the book of Malachi, we’re given a beautiful promise: those who revere His holy name will be cherished and deeply loved by Him. The Lord listens and remembers all who honour and esteem His great name. How awesome and faithful is our God!
