God Hasn't Forgotten You

Drawing from the closing chapters of Malachi and connecting them to the New Testament, this sermon addresses the experience of feeling spiritually forgotten despite living faithfully. The pastor reminds believers that God actively hears the conversations of those who fear Him, has written their names in a scroll of remembrance, and calls them His treasured possession. The sermon bridges the Old and New Testaments by connecting the Hebrew word "kanaf" (meaning wings, rays, or fringe) in Malachi 4:2 to the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5, who touched the fringe of Jesus's garment believing it would heal her. This connection reveals that Jesus is the fulfillment of Malachi's messianic promise of healing. The central call is for believers to resist the temptation to abandon right living when they feel unseen, trusting instead that God is working beneath the surface and will ultimately act on behalf of the faithful.
