How Long Oh LORD?

Revelation 8:3 Then another angel, having a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel’s hand. 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth. And there were noises, thundering, lightnings, and an earthquake.

What are these prayers of the saints? Well, I dont know yet in being true to the context here, they must have something to do with Gods righteous justice being executed upon an evil Christ rejecting world. I hate hearing of the awful effects of wicked monsters & what they have wrecked havoc upon the innocent here! A little child, totally dependent upon the supposed adults who are harming them. And I ask God, "How long oh LORD until you judge this mess?" Well, here is the answer. What an exciting moment when justice comes. Its also therapeutic. Lawlessness prevails when wicked rule but when the righteous rule, justice is given. The LORD is longsuffering, not desiring any to perish, and all to come to repentance. Yet many will refuse this great love for them and their only option left is judgment, in which no lawyer can get them free of.
