Malachi 1:11 seems to be a Prophecy of incense and pure offerings being brought to God Almighty in the New Covenant. What does this mean?

Mal 1:11 "My name will be great among the nations, from where the sun rises to where it sets. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations,” says the Lord Almighty."

God Bless.

The covenant that Moses' people agreed upon with God per Exodus,
Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy is obsolete, but still has a long ways
to go yet before it comes to a permanent end. The thing is; God says that
the Levitical system will survive for as long as the cosmos exists; so He
cannot cancel the ritual sacrifices until today's cosmos is destroyed beyond
recovery. During the millennium, the Levitical system will once again be up
and running and on duty in a brand new Temple at Jerusalem. (Jer 33:17
22)

FAQ: Will Christians be required to offer sacrifices in the new Temple?

REPLY: No, they are under a new system whose sacrifice is human rather
than animal; and their Temple is in Heaven rather than on earth.

FYI: See chapters 40 thru 48 of Ezekiel for more about the millennial
Temple.

In this case a glimpse into the eternal explains the natural.

The incense are the prayers of the saints:

"Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."

The pure offerings are the living sacrifices of the saints:

"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service."

Through these (the saints who present themselves as vessels of the grace of God) , the Living God will be seen and touched in the earth.

Worship and honour from all. Very similar to language in Revelation...

Revelation 21:24 Context

21And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. 22And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. 23And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. 24And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. 25And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. 26And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it. 27And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

What makes you think this prophecy is under the New Covenant? Is there something in the context of it that indicates that to you?

It’s speaking of the 1,000 year reign of Christ on the Earth.
