Day 284 – Call to Return: God’s Final Words Before the Silence — Malachi 1–4 | Bible In A Year (CSB)
Description
Malachi closes the Old Testament with a direct and passionate message from God—calling His people to return to covenant faithfulness. Through rebuke and promise, God confronts their hollow worship, unfaithfulness, and injustice, yet points them toward hope in the coming “messenger” who will prepare the way for the Lord. These are the final prophetic words before centuries of silence, reminding Israel—and us—of the seriousness of worship and the certainty of redemption.Questions:1. Why do you think God chose to end the Old Testament with both a warning and a promise?2. How does Malachi challenge our modern ideas of worship, giving, and reverence toward God?3. What stands out to you about the prophecy of the coming messenger, and how do you see it fulfilled in the New Testament?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
