He will turn the hearts of fathers to children, and the
disobedient, the incredulous, and unpersuadable to the knowledge and holy love of the will of God, to make ready a people for the Lord [perfectly] prepared [in spirit, adjusted and disposed and placed in the right moral state].
(Mal 4:5-6, Is 40:3 and Luke 1:17 AMP)
This week read how John came preparing the way of the Lord. Pray the fulfillment of this amazing promise above—the turning of hearts of fathers and children and unbelieving, in preparation for His second coming. WOW! What a prayer to pray!
Who do you need to speak that promise over? Does your heart need turned toward your children or toward your parents? Are you praying for a prodigal? Look how John fulfilled the prophecies about him, and let your faith and hope be encouraged this week!
