The Godly Have Ceased

"Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men."  Psalm 12:1.  When the godly cease, we do need help.  In such a condition, help can only come from the Lord.  When the godly cease and the faithful fail, look at the conditions that will prevail.  The lips will speak falsehood.  The tongue will be filled with pride.  The poor will be oppressed, and the needy will be ignored.  The wicked and the vile shall be exalted.  All manner of evil and sinfulness will hang like a dark cloud over the habitation of humanity.  Mankind will follow his own way, and decide what is right and what is wrong.  When such a condition arises, very little if anything will be considered as wrongdoing.  Help us O Lord.  His words will keep and preserve the godly and faithful.  In the midst of the abundance of sin, let us hear God as He speaks through His truth.  The generation of righteousness will not perish from the earth for the Lord shall keep His people.
