Pastor Marshall Ochs | December 21, 2025
In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from Malachi 3-4. These chapters address Israel's questions about the prosperity of the wicked, promising that He will bring justice through His coming, which will purify and refine people. He warns Israel about their disobedience in tithing, showing that generosity reflects whether God is truly supreme in their lives, and calls them to return to Him with hearts of repentance. Ultimately, God promises that a day will come when He will distinguish the righteous from the wicked, and He encourages believers to prepare the way through repentance and restoration, starting in their own hearts and homes.
