To be honest, most people should be praying that moshiach does not come. Mainly because anyone who is not a true tzaddik is going to perish. It does say that the majority of the world will be destroyed. Kind of like back in egypt, only 1/3rd of the jews made it out. And back then we were far holier people…now imagine jews today….no mass slavery and yet you hardly see people caring about getting closer to Hashem.
So…really…are we really waiting and hoping for him? Maybe, but most of us don’t realize that we are practically asking for our own deaths. This isn’t to say that we shouldn’t hope for moshiach…but hope for him and do tshuva like no tomorrow…because the moment we hear the shofar there is no tomorrow for many of us.
