Surely the Day is Coming (7 of 7)
Series: Malachi: A Study of Big Questions
Jordan Easley
Malachi 4:1-6
What do you think your last words will be?
It's fascinating to think that every person will have a final statement or question or request before we leave this earth and enter into eternity. Have you ever thought about that?
I have thought about that many times. What will my last words be? Most of the time, it's when I think I may die. Like when I'm riding a scary roller coaster... or when I'm on an airplane that's about to land... or when I'm sitting in the passenger seat and my wife is driving... you know; the times when you feel like your life could possibly end.
But my thought has been, ''What will my last words be... or what would I want them to be?'' Obviously, we would want those words to be special... meaningful... purposeful.
If I got to choose, I would obviously tell my family I loved them. I would probably challenge them to press on and trust Jesus and remember that God is in control and God is good...'' It would be something like that.
It's amazing to think about the final words somebody will ever speak and how powerful and important those words can be.
This morning, we're back in the book of Malachi... and we'll be reading the final words God spoke to His children before the 400 years of silence.
If you recall, the children of Israel have had a lot of questions up to this point. They have been doubting God, questioning God, disobeying God and even making accusations of God... and you know what? They had no clue these would be the final words they would hear from the Lord.
We may have a lot of questions but God always gets the last word.
So far in the book of Malachi, we've seen God's children ask a lot of questions:
How have you loved us? How have we despised your name? How have we polluted you? How have we wearied him? Where is the God of justice? How have we robbed you? How have we spoken against you?
