Anne Graham-Lotz: Four Ways Christians Can Help Their Communities Amid Racial, Social Unrest – (Leah Marieann Klett: Jul 28, 2016: Gospel Herald) “As I’ve read reports of shootings in Louisiana and Minnesota…as I’ve shared the agony of a nation that is reeling from the cold-blooded, deliberate, pre-planed murder of police officers…as I’ve watched the eruption of anarchy in the streets…as I’ve wept with grief almost deeper than words but expressed by a silent scream in my heart…I’ve asked the Lord, What are we to do,” Lotz wrote on her website. “Please. Don’t do nothing. Do something. Pray. Pick up your (spiritual) Sword (Bible). Pursue righteousness, and proclaim Jesus until He comes. Paul challenges us in Ephesians 6:18…’With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying. …’ It’s time for you and me to establish a set-aside time of consistent, daily prayer,” she wrote “…and take up… the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God (Ephesians 6:17)” “But don’t just read it. Apply it. Obey it. Live it out,” she wrote.
