The Beauty of God's Power in UsMalachi, the last book in the Old Testament is one more try by the Lord to go get his people to turn and live. Malachi is truth with consequences.
The prophet Zechariah, like his counterpart Haggai, calls God's people to rebuild his temple. He also foretells of the coming Messiah, a king; yet arriving on a donkey. In Matthew's text, Jesus the Servant King invites us to be with him and to know him. It is in this knowing that we are most fully alive, discovering ourselves, and reflecting His character and glory.
In the book of Haggai, God calls his people to rebuild his house, which reconnects them both back to God, and to one another, through his promise of provision, presence, and peace.
While God judges everyone who follows multiples gods and thins they know what's best, we are actually called to seek humbleness that leads to joy.
In the book of Habakkuk, the prophet asks God the questions, "How long?" and "Why" and comes to realize real hope comes not from the answers but in knowing the one who will answer.
The book of Micah is a message of judgement and hope. It reminds us that we have been shown love and mercy by God. Our response should be to show others love and mercy - to let our actions speak louder than our words.
The whimsical story of Jonah shows us that no matter how far away we run oe how deep we sink, God mercy is always there to find us!
In the book of Nahum God is bringing about justice for oppressed people (short term) but Jesus shows us God's ultimate plan for justice (long term) will through transforming love.
