The Lord's Provocation of God

Mal verse 18 says hold it goes on to say but to the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the Lord that's what this is what you can say to him. Thus says the Lord the God of Israel regarding the words that you have heard because your heart was penitent. So man you see this. That's not great news. And you see this language that we talked a little bit about last episode where I talked about how long God had been provoked. He uses this language in the mouth of the prophetess here where just a long long time they had been provoking me.
