“Elijah will indeed come and restore all things; but I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased." (Matthew 17: 11 - 12).
Elijah the great prophet came back in the persona of John the Baptist to prepare the way of the Lord, to make straight His paths and people did not recognize the hour or the opportunity. Although he appeared like a fire whose words were as a flaming furnace, yet people took little notice. The noise in the world was too loud and impenetrable for the message of salvation.
This is Advent, less than ten days to Christmas. Arise from your sleep. Do not allow Christmas shopping and any other frenzied activities to obscure the true meaning of the Season.
The Lord is surely coming in splendor to visit His people. Prepare to welcome Him.
