Malachi 3:16: “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.”

Now the focus shifts back to “they that feared the Lord”. Those who were obedient to His ordinance of Tithing and Offering. They were speaking often one to another. They were excited about the Tithe and the Offering. As they thought upon the goodness of God, they encouraged each other and honored His name.

And God listened in on these conversations and was very pleased with what He heard. So much so, that he had their names written down in a special book of remembrance for Himself because they feared God and thought upon His name.

These were special to Him. They believed Him. They respected Him. They served Him. They were joyful. They obeyed his ordinance. They had earned a place in His heart. He would honor them and protect them and bless them. He could never forget them. Their names are written in His personal journal.
