“Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.”
Malachi 3:1 KJV
These are the words of Yahweh, Commander of the heavenly armies: Pay attention! I am sending My messenger, and he will clear the road for Me. The Lord you seek will suddenly arrive at His temple. And the Messenger of God’s covenant, your soul’s delight, Watch, because He, too, is coming, prophesied Malachi, about four hundred years before this happened. Even though John the Baptist would deny that he was actually Elijah in person, as they expected, but Jesus called him Elijah in spirit. The angel had already told John’s father Zechariah that his son will go before the Lord as a forerunner, with the same power and anointing as Elijah the prophet; and that he will be instrumental in turning the hearts of the fathers in tenderness back to their children and the hearts of the disobedient back to the wisdom of their righteous fathers. And he will prepare a united people who are ready for the Lord’s appearing. The prophetic word always happens! Let’s not despise prophecies but give heed to them. Amen!
