This sermon brings us to a particular group of scriptures in which God is dealing with the spiritual leaders of the church of Malachi’s time. The spiritual leaders have led people astray through sins of their own, and have not taken God’s word to heart. Because of this, God has made the decision to curse them and their blessings.

God’s decision to curse the spiritual leaders was because of these men not taking heed to the word of God. As Christians, we should remember that each of us are the leaders of our household and have the same responsibilities to our families as these men had to their congregation. We should be applying God’s word to our lives at home so we can show our families the right path and avoid the judgement of God in our lives as these men had seen.
