Is Evil Winning? ~ Blog
After the death of Charlie Kirk, like you, I found myself with many questions.
- Lord, you've had prophets telling us not to fear, but seeing the death of a man that loved you so much has rattled and shaken the hearts of many. I don't understand how this happening could keep us from fear.
- Lord, the evil ones came after President Trump in Butler, and it was obvious that the angels were there as his head was turned at just the right time so that he would not be killed. The enemy has missed countless times since with President Trump. Why was he able to get in with Charlie?
- Lord, You said the enemy would not win over on You but we, Your children, look on day after day, and we see hundreds of Your children being martyred, even in other countries, not to mention what just happened here. The enemy is shouting right now, "There is no God, you've been abandoned." He is laughing and mocking, and I hear him saying what Elijah said to the prophets of Baal.
1 Kings 18:27b
“Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping
and must be awakened.”
Then the Lord answered me by fire. No, not a fire that was visible but a fire in my bones and in my heart to stand like David did before the Israelites and Goliath and remind everyone that God partners with us, His children. Thousands of men in the Israeli armies and even King Saul himself did not realize the power or strength they had in God, so they shook in their boots for 40 days but David after hearing Goliath mock his God only one time asked them all.
1 Samuel 17:26b
For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”
Several people have asked me how and why this happened. The how is we have a very real devil who works through willing vessels to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). I encourage you beloved, to read Matthew 10 as I won't be posting it for space reasons. In fact, even in Matthew 24 we are clearly told that lawlessness will abound and the love of many will grow cold, yet the gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world because the end is not yet.
Let's look at the why this was allowed to happen which I feel is the hardest thing for us all to comprehend. I don't expect everyone to agree with me but that is okay. God may be saying something different to you, but I immediately heard the Lord speak John 12:24.
John 12:24
Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.
As heartbreaking as this is for all and especially Charlie's wife and children a grain of wheat had to fall into the ground so it would no longer abide alone. You've witnessed the same thing I have. Countless people standing up and saying enough is enough even in other countries. Dems getting sick of the agenda their party is following and over 54,000 new chapters applying to become Turning Point USA. People all over standing up and saying, 'I am Charlie Kirk' as if to say his work will not be stopped but will continue and multiply because of what you've done.
We see even amongst the apostles that James was killed and yet Peter was spared. Why? Was Peter somehow more important than James? No, beloved. I believe the difference was prayer. I think we've been wrongly taught that prayer isn't that important. Many believe it is just words that go into the atmosphere, but clearly, we see that when James was killed and the people knew Peter was next, they called a prayer meeting and that made all the difference. in fact, an angel literally broke Peter out of the jail, helped him through a locked gate and delivered him from certain death (Acts 2).
Is Donald Trump's life more important than Charlie's? No, each life is an important gift from God. Charlie was a supporter of Donald Trump and a close family friend. DJT's sons saw him as a little brother, and this has truly shaken even the Trump family. My answer beloved is PRAYER. Donald Trump is so covered in prayer that the enemy keeps trying and yet cannot succeed. He can't get past the hedge of protection. He cannot get around the angels. We were not expecting something like this and so Charlie may not have been as covered as he should have been. I cannot say. But I can confess that he was not on my radar.
It is my hope that if you get anything from this particular blog it will be the importance of prayer. The significance of prayer and the absolute necessity of prayer is so much bigger than we've made it. How many of us are praying for DJT yet not really covering JD Vance? Believe me, the Vice President has a bullseye on his back as well. Obviously, we only have so much time in a day but there are countless people in our own lives and our governments that need prayer covering. Make a list and stick to it. Do not stop praying beloved, we have seen it work as God is exposing the evil and protecting DJT.
We are in a time like no other in history. We are at war in the spiritual realm. They keep trying to make it political, but it is not. We are at war between good and evil. This isn't really about left or right or Republican or Democrat. No, all of that is a distraction. The truth is the war we should be fighting is not with flesh and blood although it manifests in the flesh by the evil people choosing to partner with it, the reality is spending more time in prayer and covering our family members and leaders in the blood would save or protect many.
I will close this by reminding you beloved that you were born for such a time as this (Esther 4:14). God could have put you on this earth hundreds or even thousands of years ago but He chose now. Why? To pray beloved. We are called to pray. We cannot give up on God and we can't let the enemy stop or distract us. He is trying right now big time. I found an interesting scripture in Matthew that I will share finally just to remind us that we must realize and recognize how precious the time we are living in really is. It truly is a gift.
Matthew 13:17
for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
