“Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon His name” (Malachi 3:16).
This verse comes right at the end of the Old Testament, when the nation of Israel had failed greatly in being a good testimony to the Lord. Yet there were those who really cared about Him, and who spoke often to each other. It does not say that they did anything more than that, but the Lord so appreciated those that feared Him, and spoke about Him to one another, that He wrote it down in a special book.
Today we live in a world that has rejected the Lord Jesus, and is on its way to the judgment of God. Sadly, there are even many true Christians who are not a good testimony for the Lord. The Lord appreciates those who think about Him, and who encourage one another by speaking with each other about Him. Are you and I among those who do this? When we talk with other believers, do we speak about the Lord and all that He has done for us?
