Calling All Fathers - Part 1 of 2

Malachi 4:5–6 (NKJV)
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
6 And he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.

The last prophecy of the Old Testament and the first of the New Testament both declare an end-time revival before the return of the Lord. They do not mention anything about large evangelistic meetings, massive outpourings of repentance, or an increase in amazing miracles. This does not mean those manifestations will not take place; however, they do mention one thing that definitely will – the hearts of fathers turning to the children.
