Malachi 2:10-17

10 Have we not all one Father? Has

not one God created us? Why then

are we faithless to one another,

profaning the covenant of our

fathers?

Malachi 2:10-17

11 Judah has been faithless, and

abomination has been committed in

Israel and in Jerusalem. For Judah

has profaned the sanctuary of the

LORD,

Malachi 2:10-17

which he loves, and has married the

daughter of a foreign god. 12 May the

LORD cut off from the tents of

Jacob, any descendant of the man

who does this, who brings an offering

to the LORD of hosts!

Malachi 2:10-17

13 And this second thing you do.

You cover the LORD's altar with

tears, with weeping and groaning

because he no longer regards the

offering or accepts it with favor from

your hand.

Malachi 2:10-1714 But you say,

"Why does he not?" Because the

LORD was witness between you and

the wife of your youth, to whom you

have been faithless, though she is

your companion and your wife by

covenant.

Malachi 2:10-17

15 Did he not make them one, with a

portion of the Spirit in their union?

And what was the one God seeking?

Godly offspring. So guard yourselves

in your spirit, and let none of you be

faithless to the wife of your youth.

Malachi 2:10-17

16 "For the man who hates and

divorces, says the LORD, the God

of Israel, covers his garment with

violence, says the LORD of hosts.

So guard yourselves in your spirit,

and do not be faithless."

Malachi 2:10-17

17 You have wearied the LORD with

your words. But you say, "How have

we wearied him?" By saying,

"Everyone who does evil is good in

Malachi 2:10-17

the sight of the LORD, and he

delights in them." Or by asking,

"Where is the God of justice?"

OUR

EARTHLY FATHERS

PLAYS A MAJOR

IMPACT IN OUR LIFE

MANY CHILDREN GREW UP

WITH NO FATHERS AND

NO RIGHT BIBLICAL

GUIDANCE

WE LIVE IN A BROKEN

GENERATION WHERE

MANY CHILDREN ARE

ABANDONED PHYSICALLY &

SPIRITUALLY

RESULT ARE :

BROKEN FAMILIES,

BROKEN LIVES

Malachi 2:10

10 Have we not all one Father? Has

not one God created us? Why then

are we faithless to one another,

profaning the covenant of our

fathers?

God Is Our

FATHER & CREATOR

And Israel Violated

Levitical & Marriage Covenants

Malachi 2:11

11 Judah has been faithless, and

abomination has been committed

in Israel and in Jerusalem. For

Judah has profaned thesanctuary of the LORD,

Malachi 2:11

which he loves, and has marriedthe daughter of a foreign god.

Malachi 2:12

offering to the LORD of hosts!

2 Corinthian 6:14

unbelievers. For what partnership

has righteousness with lawlessness?

Or what fellowship has light with

darkness?

WHO IS YOUR GOD?

WHO IS YOUR SPOUSE?

“God, You’ve Not Come Through

For Me,

So I’m Going To Take Matters Into

My Own Hands”

“I’m going to date an unbeliever”

Psalm 27:14

14 Wait for the LORD; be strong,

and let your heart take courage; wait

for the LORD!

I GIVE UP.

I’M NEVER GOING TO GET

MARRIED.

I NEED TO GIVE UP HOPE.

Psalm 42:5

5 Why are you discouraged, my

soul? Why are you so restless? Put

your hope in God, because I will still

praise him. He is my savior and my

God.

You Start To Lower Your Expectation

And Your Qualifications .

“Kahit Sino Basta Humihinga!”

John 2:10

10 and said to him, "Everyone serves

the good wine first, and when people

have drunk freely, then the poor

wine. But you have kept the good

wine until now."

GOD IS ABLE

TO KEEP THE BEST

AT THE LAST !

“There’s something wrong with me.

I’m a damaged goods.

Nobody picked me, nobody loved

me, nobody wants me. “

Psalm 102:17

17 He regards the prayer of the

destitute and does not despise their

prayer.

“I AM

GOING TO BE

MARRIED,”

“I’M GOING TO GO

TO EVERY CHRISTIAN

DATING SITE”

“I’M GOING TO GO

TO EVERY CHRISTIAN

SINGLES’ MINISTRY

I CAN FIND”

Hebrew 4:10

10 for whoever has entered God's rest

has also rested from his works as

God did from his.

If you are a faithful single and

struggling with your singleness,

know that Jesus understands

your situation because He lived a

single life here on earth.

HE USED TO BE THE

“BREAD WINNER”

IN THE FAMILY

HE KEPT HIS FOCUS ON

FULFILLING GOD’S PLAN

FOR HIS LIFE.

JESUS LIVED A

“SINGLE LIFE”

WHEN HE WAS ON EARTH

HE HAD A

SINGLE VISION

TO FULFILL

HE DID NOT HAVE A

STRUGGLE IN THE FLESH

WITH THE NEED OF A

PARTNER IN LIFE.

Malachi 2:13-15

13 And this second thing you do.

You cover the LORD's altar with

tears, with weeping and groaning

because he no longer regards the

offering or accepts it with favor from

your hand.

Malachi 2:13-15 14 But you say,

"Why does he not?" Because the

LORD was witness between you and

the wife of your youth, to whom

you have been faithless,though she is your companion and

your wife by covenant.

Malachi 2:13-15

15 Did he not make them one, with a

portion of the Spirit in their union?

And what was the one God seeking?

Godly offspring. So guard yourselves

in your spirit, and let none of you be

faithless to the wife of your youth.

Malachi 2:13-16

16 "For I hate divorce," says the

LORD, the God of Israel, "and him

who covers his garment with wrong,"

says the LORD of hosts. "So take

heed to your spirit, that you do not

deal treacherously."

Israel During

The Time Of Malachi Was Adopting

The Culture Of Other Nations When

It Comes To Marriages

THEY HAVE MANY REASONS

TO DIVORCE THEIR

HUSBAND/WIFE

(TREACHERY, ADULTERY,

ABANDONMENT, POWER,

LUST )

IT WAS

THE FALLEN PRIESTHOOD

WHO SLOWLY PRACTICED

DIVORCE & RE-MARRIAGES

Matthew 19:7

7 They said to him, "Why then did

Moses command one to give a

certificate of divorce and to send her

away?"

Matthew 19:8

8 He said to them, "Because of your

hardness of heart Moses allowed you

to divorce your wives, but from the

beginning it was not so.

Matthew 19:9

9 And I say to you: whoever divorces

his wife, except for sexual

immorality, and marries another,

commits adultery."

Some people uses this single scripture

to denote God approves divorce but

Jesus was just explaining the rules in

Moses law on divorce.

Jesus did not used divorce in the

NEW COVENANT.

NOT AN OPTION.

1 Corinthians 7:10

10 To the married I give this charge,

not I, but the Lord : the wife should

not separate from her husband

1 Corinthians 7:11

11 but if she does, she should remain

unmarried or else be reconciled to

her husband, and the husband

should not divorce his wife.

COVENANTAL MARRIAGE IS;

SEXUAL,

IT’S RELATIONAL,

AND IT’S SPIRITUAL

1 Corinthians 7:39

39 A married woman must remain

with her husband as long as he lives.

If her husband dies, she is free to

marry anyone she wishes, but only if

the man is a Christian.

ADULTS should be a good role

model

THEBIBLE must be the standard to

follow by our family

CHURCH should be the place

for Godly training to implement in the

HOME. The church is not to take the

place of the home but only to edify

the family

The LEGACY of a Healthy

marriage and Healthy Family

will grow naturally and will be

BLESSED BY GOD
