Imprecatory Prayer 🙏 for the killer(s) of Charlie Kirk

"Vengeance is mine; I will repay, 

says the Lord." – Romans 12:1

O Lord of heaven, hear our cry,

For innocent blood was made to die.

The one who struck with heart of stone,

You see his deeds, tho yet unknown.

The wicked boast, their steps are vain,

They sow deceit, they reap but pain.

Their snares return upon their head,

Their path is marked by guilt and dread.

Let judgment rise as rivers flow,

Let every hidden secret show.

Expose the hand, unmask the lie,

Bring truth to light, O God Most High.

May restless nights consume his sleep,

The weight of sin be buried deep.

No refuge found, no place of cheer,

Until repentance draws him near.

For You are just, Your throne is sure,

You guard the righteous, strong & pure

The name of Charlie shall not fall,

But live in honor, known to all.

So let the wicked waste away,

Their schemes undone, their plots decay.

As chaff before the storm they flee,

For none withstand Your majesty.

Yet keep Your flock in mercy's care,

Restore the broken through Your prayer.

In You we hope, in You we trust,

Judge every heart with verdict just.

And when the final trumpet sounds,

When justice reigns on all the grounds,

Your saints will shine,Your truth will stand,

The wicked fall by Your own hand

Amen.

9.11.25 My Tribute to Charlie Kirk ✝️♥️🙏🕊️

                             From Chicago's edge where the skyline gleams, A young man rose with determined dreams.
A voice for truth, for faith✝️, for right,
He carried God's word into the fight.

With Bible 📖 in hand,a patriot's heart ♥️
He sought to defend what set us apart
A nation 🇺🇲founded on freedom's call,
He spoke with compassion & love for all

Erika stood as his steadfast wife,👩‍❤️‍👨
Together they built a faithful life
2 children 👧👧 now will bear his name
& carry the torch of his noble flame 🔥 

Tho darkness struck from a rooftop high,
His spirit ascends where angels 😇 fly
No bullet can silence the Word he spread
No assassin can tarnish the path he led

He taught that faith was more than creed
It lives in our actions, our love, our deeds
Conservative values with kindness sewn,
He made compassion his cornerstone

Thru Turning Point he gave a stage
To youth to carry the cause w/ age
A mentor, leader, brother, friend,
Whose mission of truth will never end

His laughter 😄warmed, his kindness stayed
For neighbors in need, his hand was laid
And tho the storm has claimed his voice,
In heaven 🕊️ now he will rejoice

America grieves, her flag bows low,
The fields of Utah weep in woe
But hope remains where his words were sown
In many hearts who call him their own

Remember the man who prayed with might🙏
Who stood for freedom, for God, for light
Tho taken too soon, his witness remains,
In the gospel he loved, in lives he changed

So Erika, dear, & children too,
The nation now stands in grief with you
For Charlie lives where no shadows fall,
In Christ's embrace, who conquers All🙏🕊️✝️♥️🇺🇲

🇺🇸The Answer to our Massive National Debt problem is the Year of Jubilee (re-use with credit to AmeriPrayer )

"Proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you." — Leviticus 25:10

---

The United States of America stands today at a financial crossroads. Our national debt, soaring beyond comprehension, has become an anchor dragging down the promise of future generations. Politicians from both parties propose solutions ranging from tax increases to spending cuts, from entitlements reform to creative accounting. Yet none of these approaches dare to deal with the root issue: our entire economic system is built upon perpetual debt, compounding interest, and an endless cycle of enslavement to lenders.

The answer is not found in tinkering around the edges of a broken system, but in returning to a time-tested, divinely ordained principle: the Year of Jubilee.

This essay will advocate that the biblical concept of Jubilee—debt release, restoration of property, and freedom for the oppressed—provides the only true solution to America's massive national debt problem. We will examine its scriptural foundation, its moral reasoning, its practical implications, and how it could be implemented in a modern context.

---

The Scriptural Foundation of Jubilee

In Leviticus 25, God instructed Israel to observe a "Year of Jubilee" every 50th year. During this sacred year, debts were forgiven, slaves were set free, and land that had been sold was returned to its original family. This radical system ensured that no family or tribe could be permanently impoverished, and no wealthy elite could accumulate land or power indefinitely. It was a reset button built into the economic structure of God's chosen people.

The Lord declared:

> "The land shall not be sold forever: for the land is Mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with Me" (Leviticus 25:23).

This simple truth undermines the very foundation of modern debt slavery. All that we possess—land, money, resources—ultimately belongs to God. Debt may exist for a season, but perpetual bondage was never His design. The Jubilee principle enshrines this reality: freedom is God's will, and liberty is His law.

---

The Moral Reasoning

Why would Jubilee be the answer to America's debt crisis? First, because our national debt is not merely a fiscal issue—it is a moral one. Trillions of dollars are owed not only to domestic creditors but to foreign nations that hold our bonds. Every child born in America enters life already shackled with a share of this debt. This is nothing short of generational theft.

Furthermore, the debt system thrives on usury—interest upon interest—contrary to God's command in Exodus 22:25 and Ezekiel 18:13. The effect is predictable: the rich grow richer through financial leverage, while the poor and middle class sink deeper into dependence. Jubilee is God's antidote to this imbalance, restoring equity and preventing permanent class stratification.

Just as Israel was called to be distinct from the nations around them, America has an opportunity to set itself apart by embracing a debt-free economy built on biblical justice. What the world calls impossible is, in fact, obedience to God's eternal wisdom.

---

The Practical Implications

Critics will immediately object: "But how can debts simply be forgiven? Wouldn't that crash the economy?" The truth is, our economy is already broken. Inflation, banking crises, and political gridlock testify that the current path is unsustainable. Jubilee does not destroy wealth—it redistributes it according to God's order, freeing people from chains that were never meant to last forever.

Imagine if, in a modern Year of Jubilee:

National debt was wiped away, freeing future generations from trillions in obligations.

Student loans, mortgages, and credit card debts were released, granting families a fresh start.

Foreclosed homes and repossessed lands were restored to their original owners.

Workers trapped in wage slavery were liberated to pursue their callings rather than endlessly serve creditors.

The ripple effect would be profound. Innovation would flourish as people were no longer enslaved by debt payments. Families would be strengthened as financial burdens were lifted. Small businesses would thrive, no longer crushed by predatory loans. And perhaps most importantly, the people would recognize that true freedom does not come from Washington or Wall Street, but from Almighty God.

---

Historical Precedents

The principle of Jubilee is not merely theoretical. Though rarely observed in ancient Israel, its moral force influenced countless movements throughout history. The early Church practiced a form of Jubilee in Acts 4, where believers shared their possessions and "there was not a needy person among them."

In more modern times, debt forgiveness has been used to stabilize nations. After World War II, much of Germany's debt was forgiven, allowing it to rebuild into a prosperous democracy rather than remain crushed under financial servitude. Similarly, debt relief programs for developing nations have been promoted by leaders across the political and religious spectrum, recognizing that perpetual debt traps entire populations in poverty.

If these examples worked on smaller scales, why should they not work for the United States itself?

---

A Prophetic Opportunity for America

America is at a tipping point. Our national debt is over $30 trillion and climbing rapidly. Interest payments alone are consuming a massive share of our federal budget. Left unchecked, this trajectory guarantees collapse.

But collapse is not inevitable. We have an opportunity to lead the world in embracing a godly principle that resets the economic playing field. By declaring a Year of Jubilee, the United States would demonstrate humility before God, compassion toward its citizens, and moral courage in the face of global financial powers.

Jubilee would not be merely a fiscal policy—it would be a spiritual revival. It would call the nation back to the recognition that "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof" (Psalm 24:1). It would remind us that freedom is not a political slogan but a divine inheritance.

---

Addressing the Objections

Some will argue that creditors would suffer losses. Yet Scripture makes it clear that the lending of money was never meant to be a perpetual source of wealth. Loans were to meet temporary needs, not to enslave generations. If our financial system collapses without usury, then perhaps it is not worth preserving in its current form.

Others will claim that people would become irresponsible if debts were canceled. Yet Jubilee was never about rewarding laziness—it was about preventing permanent bondage. In fact, knowing that debts would not last forever encouraged lenders to be wise and borrowers to be prudent. It created a self-regulating system of responsibility rooted in God's justice, not man's greed.

Finally, skeptics will dismiss Jubilee as unrealistic. But consider this: is it any more unrealistic than believing that we can continue borrowing trillions indefinitely? Is it more unrealistic than trusting the Federal Reserve to inflate our way out of debt? The true fantasy is believing that our current path is sustainable. Jubilee is the only realistic solution because it aligns with the truth of God's Word.

---

Implementation in a Modern Context

How could Jubilee be enacted today? It would require courageous leadership and national repentance. Congress could pass legislation declaring a national debt reset, canceling obligations owed by individuals, businesses, and the federal government itself. Creditors, banks, and foreign nations would resist, but history shows that debt relief is possible when a people are united in will.

The Church could lead by example, forgiving debts within congregations and releasing members from financial burdens. Communities could adopt Jubilee principles in local economies—sharing resources, forgiving obligations, and redistributing land where possible.

Above all, Jubilee would require a spiritual awakening, recognizing that debt is not merely a financial matter but a form of bondage. As Jesus declared in Luke 4:18, He came "to preach deliverance to the captives." Jubilee is the gospel applied to economics.

---

Conclusion

America's massive national debt is not merely a political problem, nor is it an accounting puzzle. It is a spiritual issue rooted in greed, usury, and bondage. No tax plan, no austerity measure, no inflationary trick will solve it. The only true solution is to embrace the divine wisdom of the Year of Jubilee.

By forgiving debts, restoring land, and proclaiming liberty, we would not only reset our economy but renew our covenant with God. Jubilee is not just an ancient practice—it is a timeless principle, the very heart of justice and mercy.

If America dares to declare a Year of Jubilee, we may yet find ourselves not enslaved by debt, but free under the blessing of Almighty God.

Who Was Iryna Zarutska? More details, condolences ✝️ ♥️ 🙏

Background & Journey

Iryna was born in Kyiv, Ukraine, on May 22, 2002. She fled with her family in 2022, escaping the war caused by Russia's full-scale invasion. They resettled in Charlotte, North Carolina, seeking safety and a fresh start .

Dreams & Character

Friends and neighbors remember Iryna as a bright, creative, and kind-hearted individual with dreams of becoming a veterinary assistant. She was also an avid artist—passionate about sculpting, designing her own clothing, and caring for animals in her community .

The Tragic Event

On August 22, 2025, while riding the Lynx Blue Line light rail in Charlotte, she was fatally stabbed in what appears to have been a random and unprovoked attack .

The Suspect

The alleged attacker, Decarlos Brown Jr., age 34, was arrested at the scene and charged with first-degree murder. He reportedly had a long criminal history (including convictions for robbery with a weapon, larceny, misuse of the 911 system) and mental health issues .

Community Response & Broader Impact

The release of surveillance footage sparked public outrage and debate over transit safety, mental health support, and the criminal justice system. City officials responded by reviewing security protocols, fare enforcement, and considering bolstering mental health support and transit safety measures .

Family's Pain & Farewell

Iryna was laid to rest in Charlotte with her mother and siblings by her side. Tragically, her father could not attend, as wartime restrictions kept him in Ukraine—adding another layer of grief to the family's tragedy .

Why Thoughts & Prayers 🙏 are a good thing 👍

"Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." – Galatians 6:2

Thoughts and prayers are a good thing, but  you might want to say it in a different way, because the left has tried to demonize the phrase . I usually simply say condolences and then add the following: 🙏✝️♥️ .

Here here's why  thoughts and prayers DO matter : 

****

In the aftermath of a tragic accident, when grief is raw and the weight of loss feels unbearable, one of the most immediate and heartfelt responses people often offer is, "You are in my thoughts and prayers." While some ridicule this phrase as empty or inadequate, dismissing it as a mere platitude, its true value lies in its power to express compassion, solidarity, and faith. Rather than being trivial, "thoughts and prayers" can be profoundly meaningful, both for the giver and the receiver, especially in moments when human words and actions feel insufficient.

At its core, prayer is an act of empathy. To pray for someone is to acknowledge their suffering and lift it before God, asking for strength, healing, or comfort on their behalf. It is an act of love, even from a distance. For the grieving, knowing that others are praying can remind them they are not alone—that their pain has not gone unnoticed and that a larger community is holding them in care. While a prayer cannot erase loss, it can give survivors courage to endure the long journey of healing.

Furthermore, "thoughts and prayers" often serve as a bridge to action. Critics sometimes accuse prayer of being a passive response, but in reality, it frequently inspires concrete support. Many who begin by praying also bring meals, donate funds, volunteer time, or simply sit quietly with the hurting. Prayer softens hearts and stirs compassion, turning inward reflection into outward service. To ridicule prayer is to misunderstand that it often fuels the very acts of generosity that follow.

In contrast, those who decry "thoughts and prayers" risk undervaluing the spiritual dimension of human resilience. Tragedy touches more than the body; it wounds the soul. While medical care, financial help, and counseling are vital, spiritual support also plays a crucial role in recovery. When people pray, they invoke hope beyond human limits, pointing to the possibility of peace even in the darkest hours. For believers, prayer anchors them in the promise that suffering is not meaningless and that God's presence can bring comfort where human efforts fall short.

Ridicule, on the other hand, often stems from frustration that prayer cannot instantly fix what has been broken. But this critique assumes that prayer is meant to be a replacement for tangible action, rather than a companion to it. True prayer is not escapism; it is engagement with both the sorrow of others and the power of God. By contrast, dismissing prayer altogether risks silencing a vital language of compassion, leaving the grieving without the comfort of shared faith and solidarity.

Ultimately, "thoughts and prayers" after a tragic accident are a gift, not a weakness. They remind us that even when we cannot control circumstances, we can still surround the suffering with love, lift them up before God, and commit to walking beside them. Far from being hollow words, they are a sacred offering of presence, compassion, and hope—the very things most needed when tragedy strikes.
