The world goes around in circles in relationship to its spiritual estate. The air is filled with unrighteousness and no one takes notice of it, so it seems. There is no noticeable distinction between Christians and non-Christians in the way one chooses music, in the way they dress, in the life-style one chooses to live. Christians support businesses that practice profanities, and immorality. Stores openly let them know where they stand in matters that should concern their faith, but their eyes are closed and ears deafened by choice in order not to sacrifice their worldly pleasure. We elect officials who stand against our beliefs in order to support political parties. Meanwhile, where children disappear from the womb of their mothers, for the sake of women’s choice. The world has become morally filthy and hard to live in it. We ask the question, “How long, O Lord before You take vengeance on this world?” However, we forget that He is looking for intercessors who will stand in the gap for righteousness. We are depressed, carrying the load of grief, but without focus to fight the evil taking over our lives. Our land is polluted beyond remedy. Only our Lord can do something about it, if we, the minority of His people, would stand for Him in this warfare against unrighteousness. Iniquities abound, separating us from God. Prayers are not answered because of it; we live a mediocre life of faith; “we do not call-in righteousness,” while unrighteousness multiplies.
