JANUARY 30, Malachi 4:2

Those that fear and love the Lord will look forward to the Second Coming of Jesus. It will be a wonderful day because to them, Christ is a reviving and rejoicing light. As the rising sun brings light and life to earth, so will Christ!

Christ is indeed the light of the world. As the Sun of righteousness, He comes upon this dark world to save those that are lost in the darkness. He saves and He comforts with his healing beams (“arise with healing in his wings”). Once saved, they will be healed and will be able to know the joy of salvation. That is why in the second part of today’s verse, it speaks of believers “as calves of the stall”, which are cared for by the Lord and are happy and carefree.

Do you want to be happy and carefree? Are you looking forward to the great day of the Lord’s Second Coming?
