The Cry Of The Martyrs

The cry of the martyrs, 'How long, O Lord ...?' is often upon our lips today.

• HOW LONG ... must we keep praying, 'Thy kingdom come,' - only to see the powers of darkness digging their trenches deeper, hoisting their flags higher, and setting themselves in further acts of defiance against God and His grace?

• HOW LONG ... is the Church to watch and wait for the fire from heaven to fall, and for Ezekiel's tremendous vision of revival to be set in motion - the dead bones standing in new life, 'an exceeding great army'?

• HOW LONG ... before we realise in our own hearts that we are only going to travel this road once - and it is only what we do for Jesus that lasts?

This message lays out a glorious response to the cry of the martyrs.

It reminds us of the endurance of Christ, the sure fulfilment of God's purposes for this world, and the inspirational value of those saints who have already made it to heaven!
