Psalms 12:1
Help, Lord, for the godly man ceases to be,
For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.
In a time of great evil this is certainly true; more and more people fall prey to turning to what the world has to offer, rather than side with God, and so the godly man ceases to be. This is a sign of great judgment coming as God withdraws his favor...not to mention any of the faithful.
The psalmist calls for God's help, as he recognizes that it is greatly needed. Certainly one of the things that the rise of evil times do is make us more and more dependent on the Lord. One only alphas to read of the experience of Chinese Christians during the time of Mao to understand that. Mao is dead now, and Christianity is thriving.
