Marriage is more than just a bond between husband and wife—it is, first and foremost, a sacred covenant made before God. He cares deeply about the purity and purpose of marriage, having designed it to reflect the intimate relationship between Himself and His people. When we are unfaithful in marriage, our unfaithfulness is ultimately against God. Scripture makes it clear: faithfulness to God brings blessing. In today’s passage from Malachi, a piercing question is asked—Why then are we faithless?
