In the Face of Evil, We Will Stand Stronger

The assassination of Charlie Kirk was not just an attack on one man — it was an attempt to silence truth. It was an evil act meant to strike fear into the hearts of those who dare to stand boldly for God, for righteousness, and for freedom. And yet, what the enemy meant for evil, God will use for good.

Some voices have said, “He got what he deserved” or “I’m glad he’s gone.” Make no mistake — those words are straight from the pit of hell, from Satan himself. To celebrate the death of anyone is demonic — but especially the death of someone who stood for truth, for this nation, and for the Lord. It only reveals how desperately this world needs Jesus.

But here’s what the enemy does not understand: you cannot kill truth. You cannot silence the mission of God. This evil act will not stop the message — it has only ensured that more of the world will hear Charlie’s message: the gospel and the unshakable truth of God’s Word. The enemy cannot keep the truth of the gospel down — just as crucifying Christ only made the gospel more alive and our faith more victorious.

Charlie Kirk will be remembered in history as a courageous warrior who stood for what is right, what is good, and what is of God. And just as the blood of martyrs before him has done, this tragedy will raise up more voices, more warriors, more “Charlie Kirks” for the Lord. The Word of the Lord will not be trampled, and any attempt to silence it will only make it resound louder.

A Serious Message to Every American:

The assassination of Charlie Kirk should shake us all to the core. This evil act sends a chilling message: freedom of speech and freedom of religion are no longer simply freedoms… they are now costly — even unto death.

Regardless of your beliefs, every one of us should grieve and tremble that the greatest gift we have as Americans — the freedom to speak truth — is under attack. This is a gift many other nations do not have, and it is one we have far too often taken for granted.

My prayer is that this tragedy will awaken believers and all Americans. We need to stand for our freedom. We need to stand for our beliefs. Most importantly, we need to stand for the Lord.
Let this ignite a holy fire within us to stand up for God, for truth, and for the freedom to speak it. Christians have been silenced out of fear for too long. Evil may have taken a life, but it will not take our voices. Evil will not silence Christ’s followers.

We will not be silent. We will stand. We will speak. We will rise.

In the words of J.D. Vance: “We’ll take it from here.”

Picture below of a shirt I purchased a few days ago and I feel like it is a gift to remind me during this difficult time to not be afraid and to always live courageously for the Lord.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
— Joshua 1:9

RIP, Charlie Kirk.
