Boom! There are some things you just don’t do…like let a two-year-old run around with scissors, give your car keys to your inebriated neighbor, or let a country that wants to annihilate you have a nuke. Just not smart. So, I am very grate- ful for a president with the guts to do what others should have done. The effi- cacy of the mission to take out Iran’s nuke capabili- ty was phenomenal, and I believe God-directed. I’m also thankful for the support President Trump has shown Israel. It’s the right thing to do (Genesis 12:3). He showed some excellent strategy in deal- ing with Iran. So much for the “Trump is delusional” mantra. But you can be sure the Left will be hurling the hate…“Hitler! Warmon- ger!” News flash: Stopping a bully doesn’t make you a bully. It makes you a hero. Trump gave Iran some options for peace. They declined. They also made it pretty clear they aren’t looking for peaceful solu- tions. They’ve been stirring the Middle Eastern pot for decades. Destruction by Proxy has been their meth- od. Just give your dirty jobs to others and then claim your innocence. The hatred goes deep. Their quest for the destruction of “Little Satan” is just hors d’oeu- vres. Next on the menu is the main course…The Great Satan (America). So now we have known terrorists in our country just waiting for their cue (pagers in hand). Thanks a bunch, Biden. I’m sure the billions you made available to them have been a big help. Can you imagine him running the show right now? “Here’s a couple more billion. Gotta keep that oil flowing (anywhere but America). Nuke? Nah…it’s all good.” I’m pretty thankful for those last election results. I’m also thankful for the cabinet Trump chose. Great leaders are making the job way easier, to the chagrin of the Left. The more he accomplishes, the more ri- diculous their criticism. The whole “No Kings!” thing is laughable…and the height of hypocrisy. They want no authority, no laws, no re- straint… unless they say so, of course. Then they’ll take away your guns, gas stoves and “gas-guzzling” cars… oh…and your Bibles. Can’t have any of this God talk… might shine the light on the evil they excuse. Oh, and just to clarify…Yes, when we have been threatened by another country (“Death to America!”), our Command- er in Chief can and should make decisions concerning the defense of our country. Any congressman who tries to stop him is a traitor. So, what now? I’m guessing the rest of the world is still trying to digest what’s happened…while taking Trump a little more seriously. If you know Bib- lical prophecy, you know that, at some point, Iran, Turkey, Russia, Libya and Sudan will join up to attack Israel. But God will stop them in their tracks (Ezekiel 38). As we watch prophecy unfold, and in the light of our current situation, it would be good to consider this; since about 2,000 of the 2,500 Biblical proph- ecies have already been fulfilled, we might want to pay attention to the rest of what the Bible has to say. It’s life-saving. “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people” 1 Timothy 2:5.
