Malachi 4:5Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC) 5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes.

1. F od is a master at timlnr. Like any good leader; He knows when to move and how to prepare the people
ltl ior ilis moves.
Mahchi predicts a day when God will bring iustice to everyone and burn away the evil, like chaff burning
away from the wheat. God promises to send Eliiah the prophet before this terrible day of the Lord. Like so
many prophecies, this scripture has two fulfillments. The first came after fesus was born in Bethlehem; as the
Eliiah figure, lohn the Baptizer prepared the way. The ultimate fulfillment of this passage will occur in the last
days, when God will send another Eliiah figure to prepare the way for His second coming.
God practices the Law of Timing, making sure everything is in order when He makes His move. This word
from Malachi is the last word God gave before coming in the person of lesus.
