But when he comes, he will be like a hot fire that makes metal pure. He will be like strong soap that makes clothes completely clean. Nobody will be able to stand in front of him when he appears. On that day, nobody will remain the same. He will work like a man who uses a hot fire to make gold and silver pure. He will make the Levites clean and pure. He will remove their dirt. Then they can offer proper sacrifices to the LORD. The LORD will accept the gifts that the people of Judah and Jerusalem offer to him. He will be happy with them as he was in earlier times.

6 Days
Scripture elevates God to His rightful place as the sovereign Lord of all creation, reminding us we are not sovereign but finite. We’re not the point. We’re here to point to the Point. Taken from the teaching of Casting Crown's lead singer, Mark Hall, these devotionals are designed to recalibrate our perspectives in a selfish world.
We hold firm to the truth that the God of the universe is always at work. He is in the business of transforming, renewing, and reclaiming all that is His, including us. We pray that this 6-day devotional will be a tool for God’s transformative truth and power to work in your life, to refine and shape you, making you more like Him.
Somberly closing the Old Testament, Malachi shows that a thousand years after Sinai, unfaithfulness, greed, and injustice continue to plague God’s people. Moreover, Malachi’s ministry initiates centuries of prophetic silence. Despite the growing darkness, however, Malachi prophesies a coming messenger who would prepare the way of the Lord. Four hundred years later, a new era of redemption dawned when the cries of John the Baptist echoed in the wilderness.
