Prayer for hard times image
“…it is incumbent on Christian men to possess the inner virtue to know the dictates of wisdom and to bravely use force when it is called for. We ought to be the stabilizing element in society, the people others turn to when chaos ensues, the calm and steady hand that guides others, because we ourselves are being guided by God.”
(Jon Harris – TruthScript) I have received more questions about “What can I do?” in the past two days than I have since the contested presidential election in 2020. Multiple friends have called to ask what the next steps are in light of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Let me get right to the point. There are three things.
1. Pursue Virtue
Your first assignment as a Christian man is to pursue a life of faithfulness to your Creator, the Lord Jesus Christ. This is not only what God calls you to, but it is also the example set by Charlie Kirk, who in recent years made sharing the gospel and defending the Christian faith a central part of his public platform. He wanted to be remembered for his faith before anything else.
If you have not repented of your sins and put your trust in Jesus Christ, now is the time. If you are not living for Christ in your daily life, now is the time. Discipline yourself to live a life that threatens the kingdom of darkness at every level. If you are not actively using the fundamental weapons God gives to every believer—prayer, scripture meditation, and active obedience in your work, church, and family life—it is time to secure that foundation first.
