Malachi 2:4-6  ⁴ Know, then, that I have sent this command to you, that my covenant with Levi may hold, says the LORD of hosts.  ⁵ My covenant with him was a covenant of life and well-being, which I gave him; this called for reverence, and he revered me and stood in awe of my name.  ⁶ True instruction was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in integrity and uprightness, and he turned many from iniquity.

 When God makes a covenant, he sticks to it. God’s promises are true. God’s promises are steadfast. God teaches us his will. God guides us in his way.

God promises to give us life and well-being. He gives us wisdom to know what to do in order to have that life. If we do as God has instructed we will be able to have well-being in our physical lives. We will be able to have well-being in our emotional lives. We will be able to have well-being in our spiritual lives. We will become whole and complete.

That wholeness prepares us to face any trial that may come our way. We will walk with integrity and faith. We will be strong against any foe. We will lead others to a way of life and well-being. God is faithful to do it.

Lord, thank you for your covenant with us. Help us to live the life you have promised. Amen.
