Study8B... CHARATERISTICS AND THE ATTITUDE OF THE JEWEL
Malachi3:7-18
WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE LORD’’ S JEWELS ?
Verse 16 gives us the answer: ““Then……” ” When? When the majority of God’’s covenant people were out of touch with Him and were sinning against Him, there were some who did three things, and these tell us the marks or characteristics of those who are the Lord’’s jewels:
(1) They feared the Lord. This was not a slavish fear but the reverential fear of a child for its parent. It is the fear of holy worshippers. Instead of acting as those did who are mentioned in Malachi 3:13-15, these who are called ‘’jewels’’ feared the Lord. Do we fear Him? Look up Psalm 34:9-11.
(2) They talked with each other (verse 16). Their lips were full of praise to God and of testimony before others (Psalm 66:16). Is that the testimony of your heart and soul? If you are His jewel it should be.
(3) They honoured His Name (verse 16). Their meditation was centred on the Lord Himself –- upon His Name, that is, His Person and work. What is His Name? Twenty-four times in this prophecy He is called ““the Lord Almighty””, which indicates His great power and might. Now we think of Him in terms of repentance, faith and love, and we meditate upon His might, His power, His grace and His glory.
Are these marks or characteristics of God’’s jewels true of us?
WHAT IS THE LORD’’ S ATTITUDE TOWARDS HIS JEWELS ?
Notice that in verses 16-17 we are told three things that indicate the Lord’’s loving interest in His jewels:-
(1) He listens to them. “…“…the Lord listened and heard…”…” –- that is, He bent down from heaven and listened to the holy conversations of His precious ones. Compare Jeremiah 8:6 with Luke 24:15. As the Lord draws near to us what does He hear from our lips?
(2) He records the history of His Jewels. Verse 16 tells us that the Lord has ““a scroll of remembrance””! In this book every detail is accurate. Is it the Lamb’’s Book? No. It is the book in which the Lord records the faithful service of His people. What surprises we shall get when we look into that book on that day! We shall see that God did hear our prayers, that He did bless our faithful service, and that even the little things that were done in His Name were blessed of Him and recorded –- look up Matthew 25:35-45.
(3) He assures their eternal security. Verse 17 tells us that the Lord says, “”They will be mine, says the Lord Almighty, in the day when I make up my treasured possession.”” What day? –- in the day when the Lord Jesus comes again (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). Not one treasured possession will be lost or missing. All the elect will be gathered safely in (compare Psalm 87:6 with John 6:37; John 10:28-29; 2 Timothy 1:12; 2 Timothy 2:19). He welcomes them as ““sons””. Verse 17 tells us that the Lord gives to His jewels all the privileges of sonship. How wonderful the grace of God is! Look up and compare Romans 8:16-17 with Hebrews 1:2.
