Day 2 . . . Malachi 4.
2 But to you who fear My name
The Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
3 You shall trample the wicked,
For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet
On the day that I do this,”
Says the LORD of hosts.
This . . .
What does it mean to fear the name of the Lord?
God is all powerful. He goes head on with semi-trucks and wins. If you have ever been swimming in an ocean, you know how powerful it is. An ocean demands respect. How wonderful it is that God is good. He is great, and very terrible. And so He desires that we run to Him with open arms, and tremble. He is a jealous God. He loves us with serious love and demands we take that love seriously.
That . . .
"On the day that I do this" suggests that a DAY is coming when God is going to do some serious good stuff. I wake up each morning and everything seems the same. Could it be that "one day" things will never be the same?
"The Sun of Righteousness shall arise" again suggests that one day the sun will come up and healing will break forth. Righteousness will arise and who will trample the wicked?
We will.
This is that . . .
God, I pray for that Day.
