The Book of Revelation tells of the time between the four horsemen and the start of the most terrible wrath. It is a time when martyrs will be created, yet apart from this there is relative calm compared to the cataclysmic apocalyptic events later. I believe it is now this time of respite. There is war, but not so terrible as will come. It started when the second world war ended. We might still have some relative peace for two or maybe as much as three decades. This time is such as kings long for. Time when we, like them, can turn our hearts to praising God. Maybe we can please Him, even though His wrath is on the way and His martyrs call out for Him to avenge them. Praising God later will be a challenge. Now is time we can well use in His praise. In spirit and in truth. As pleases Him.
