Darkness at Noon in Damascus

Wow!  The city of Damascus sure seems to be front and center in the news every single day as of late.  It sure seems something is coming for Damascus.

BEIRUT, Dec 4 (Reuters) - By day, the streets of Syria's capital are crowded with cars and with shoppers. It looks normal, but it isn't - by noon, people are planning how to get home before nightfall.

Roads suddenly blocked by the army cause traffic jams. Workers race to quit the office, hit the shops and get home by dark. Dark is when the kidnappers come out to seek new victims, and the clashes raging on the outskirts creep ever closer to the heart of Damascus.

For months, the people of Damascus have nervously watched their ancient city dragged deeper into Syria's bloody conflict.

Fighting has already laid waste to much of the northern city of Aleppo and burned parts of its vaulted Old City quarter to the ground. Whole swathes of central Homs have been reduced to rubble.

"I've seen what happens and have a sinking feeling about what comes next. We fear killing and bombing, we fear being forced to flee, or being looted by the army or the rebels," said Majed, 28, a hotel worker from central Damascus. "What would happen to our beautiful Old City? It is mental torture."

The Bible is clear what is GOING TO HAPPEN to that beautiful Old City.

“See, Damascus will no longer be a city
but will become a heap of ruins."  Isaiah 17:1

Let's be fervently in prayer for these folks in Damascus.  Pray that they will leave their Satanically inspired religion of Islam and accept Christ before it's too late.
