Then another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel.
( Revelation 8: 4 ) - The Fifth Seal: The Martyrs
And when the Lamb opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony they had upheld.
And they cried out in a loud voice, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge those who live on the earth” and avenge our blood.
Then each of them was given a white robe and told to rest a little while longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers, were killed, just as they had been killed.…

Dedicated
Difficult days suggest otherwise, but “Let’s walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help. ” ( Hebrew 4:15 ).
I am thankful that it takes a Pastor’s son to lead one to all those passages that we skim over. Here is one from Pat Schatzline in the same sermon ( referenced above ).
Between Sanctuary entrance and altar, let the priests, God’s servants, weep tears of repentance.
Let them intercede: “Have mercy, God, on your people!
( Joel 2:17 )

Sometimes we feel so afraid
Sometimes we feel so lonely
Sometimes we feel confused
Sometimes we feel so helpless
And we don’t know what to do
(it’s) so hard to believe it
if we never heard it
the voice of our father said our name
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
I’ll never leave you
I’ll never leave you (2x)
oh Lord…
Sometimes
we’re sitting in the middle of the dark at night
sitting on the piano playing right on
Sometime just sing till the seal come
sing it oh…
I’m not alone
I’m not alone
You never leave me
You never leave me (4x)
Oh Lord…
Martin Luther King
one night was sitting at his kitchen table
all by himself
his family had already gone to bed
and all of a sudden he recieves this phonecall
and this man said:
“Martin if you don’t stop preaching what you’re preaching
we’re gonna take the life of your family and we’re gonna take your life
we’re gonna kill you.”
and after he hung up the phone
he said at that table
and he begin just to say:
“Father, I grew up in the church
I’ve preached your kingdom in justice all over the eath
I’ve preached your kingdom in justice all over America
And I know you’re real
but right now I’m so afraid and I don’t think I’ve ever hurt You
say my name
and I’m here to hear your voice father I need you to say my name”
and he just began to cry
and out the silence he heard the voice of his father for the first time
and it said this:
Never alone Martin
Never alone Martin
I’ll never leave you (3x)
I’ll never leave you
no…
