Malachi 4:1-6; Matthew 11:14; Mark 9:11-13; Luke 1:17

Here, God promises the coming of his son, and foretells the role of a preparer, a role that John the Baptist would later fulfill in a transformative manner in the new testatment.

The last verse of this chapter says that God will restore the children's hearts to their fathers and vice versa, and the only way to do so is if we pray for them. We are to pray for the most challenging people in our lives, such as relatives, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances, so we will be ready when Jesus comes.

Stay playerful so that his coming will be soon, and he receives a bride ready to see him.
