For well over two thousand years now, the holy men of God have been praying.  Do you know what they’ve been praying for?

In Christ Jesus they have lifted their voice, almost as unison!  And the Holy Lord of life has heard their words.  Do you know what words he has heard?

“Even so Lord Jesus come quickly!”

Before you were born, 10 million holy men, and more, prayed those words to the Lord.  Before you even knew there was a door to enter, there were men praying that it should be shut! 

The wickedness of this place was more than they could bear.  And the promise of the Holy One strains against the leash! 

But the clasp will be undone, and the leash will go slack.  The Vengeance of God will leap forth; irresistibly bent on conquest.  Every muscle, sinew and bone is pointed in the direction of the wicked.  And as the clasp is released, he will fly like lightning!

They prayed:

“Holy Lord God Almighty your law is being broken!  Look and see!  We testify to men of your holiness O’ beautiful God of all.  Now we kneel before you to testify before your Holy Throne. 

Look how they hate you, Sovereign God!  Look how they ignore your Laws of Life.  Look how they hate righteousness and love to be wicked.

Rise up oh Holy God and cleanse this place!  Bring about your Holy promise.  There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!  Even So Come Lord Jesus!”

Did you know there are men praying this today?  Before you even know there is a door through which you must walk, men pray these things. 

They do not pray this to injure you; as if by their prayer they may bring up your destruction.  They pray this out of a sincere and deep love for God in Christ Jesus.  In this prayer is the kiss of peace they desire to give to the God who has saved them.

I would strongly urge you to present yourself to God today.  Look around you at the wickedness of this place.  It grows exponentially now.  What was considered forbidden only 30 years ago is now paraded in the streets!  How much longer do you think it will take before the Holy Lord answers the prayer of these beautifully holy men?
