SPECIAL EDITION DAILY ARTICLE by Dr. Jim Denison: According to Israeli intelligence, Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, has been found dead after the US and Israel carried out air strikes early this morning on Tehran. The ayatollah’s body has reportedly been pulled from rubble left by the strikes. Early this morning, US and Israeli forces launched “Operation Epic Fury.” In a video statement posted Saturday at 2:30 a.m. ET, President Trump stated, “A short time ago, the United States military began major combat operations in Iran. Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.” @JimDenison explains the historical significance of today’s developments, why the U.S. attacked Iran now and four biblical ways Christians should pray in response to this historic day.

How do you discern God’s will? @JimDenison offers his thoughts in this mailbag episode of the Faith & Clarity podcast.

From Denison Forum founder @JimDenison: Today’s tragic news highlights the courage required for those willing to engage in public service. This includes politics, media, church leadership, and any other venue by which someone is exposed to the public. Anything someone says or does that angers someone else puts them at potential risk. It will always be easier and safer in the moment for us to retreat from our convictions and avoid conflict however we can. While taking appropriate precautions and personal care is obviously wise, however, living in fear is not truly living. As the saying goes, “Ships are safest in the harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.” The coward who shot Charlie Kirk modeled all that is wrong with a culture that abandons objective truth and consensual morality for a zero-sum battle that cancels and silences disagreement. Kirk, by contrast, will be remembered not only for his passionate commitment to his political and cultural beliefs but also for his sincere desire to reach out to those who disagreed with him, seeking to forge a better future for the common good. He died doing what he loved to do—debating and advancing issues that matter to the nation he sought to serve. Now we pray for his wife and two small children, asking God’s grace and peace for them in their unspeakable loss and grief. We pray for the shooter to be apprehended before further violence is committed. We pray for those in the public eye, that they would have the courage of their convictions and the protection of civil society. And we pray for Christians to be salt and light in a decaying and darkened culture desperate for both. “Speaking the truth in love” (Ephesians 4:15) has never been more dangerous, or more needed, than today.
