The Unchangeableness of God Manifested in the Preservation of Israel
Malachi 3:6
For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed.


I. A FACT STATED. "The sons of Jacob are not consumed." This is a remarkable fact concerning the literal descendants of the patriarch. It is true still.

II. THE REASON ASSIGNED. "I am the Lord; I change not." Had it depended upon the nations of the earth they would long ago have been consumed. God had entered into covenant with them, and given them great and precious promises. And though they have broken the covenant, the Lord on His part changes not. There is abundant encouragement in this subject for every child of God. Abide in Him, and no enemy shall be able to separate you from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus your Lord.

(M. S. Alexander.)
