Woman Jumps Into Action After Oct. 7 Terror Attack,
Helps Save IDF Soldiers’ Lives
|
|
|
An American woman who watched in horror as Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack unfolded felt compelled to take action — and has been saving lives now for nearly three years. Adi Vaxman, founder and president of Operation Israel, told CBN News she started her organization in an effort to help protect Israeli servicemen and women. “Our mission is to save lives of the sons and daughters in Israel that are fighting for Israel’s existence and indirectly for, I feel, our existence as the free world, and the Western world, and for American values and Judeo-Christian values,” she said. “So that’s the mission.”
Vaxman, who is Jewish, said she felt called to action by “divine intervention” and signs from God. “I would say that, on Oct. 7, I always believed in God and my faith was always important to me,” she said. “But I would say that since Oct. 7, it had become not just a lot more important to me, but also a more central grounding force in in my identity because I’ve just been given sign after sign that this is what I’m supposed to do.” The terror attack left Vaxman in shock, especially considering her personal history.
She was a paramedic in Israel during the 1990s and had responded to many terror attacks. Yet what unfolded that day left her stunned as she grappled with unimaginable evil. “I think it showed the true face of the enemy that we’re all dealing with as as a Judeo-Christian society — as a free society that values life,” she said. “And I think that’s something that every American, every Jew, every Christian, everybody that believes in that way of living needs to understand that we are all fighting as a society that is kind of a bigger, bigger mission.”
Vaxman recalled sitting at home on October 7 watching the horror unfold from afar in America. She recalled feeling as though she would die if she didn’t take action and respond. “I had a close friend that was locked in her safe room with her kids stuffed inside closets for 26 hours, and we stayed awake and texting with her the whole time, trying to figure out where she was,” she said. “My brother… was rushed to the front lines. He’s a reservist. He’s still serving. He’s still fighting nearly three years later.” Vaxman said she immediately knew she needed to take action, so she did just that and started sending protective gear to Israeli soldiers to help them amid the newfound battle.

God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, we ask for abundant blessings over 'Operation Israel', created through Holy Spirit inspiration, to provide for the protection of IDF soldiers. Lord, we ask that You would continually supply for this ministry and each warrior as they defend the nation of Israel. By Your mercy, present every piece of needed equipment and also Your powerful blood-covering of protection over each fighter. In the Name of Jesus, we ask that provision of all protective fighting-gear would be available, with no lack of any good thing. We lift ALL PRAISE to Almighty God for supplying every need for each IDF soldier and safeguarding their every step! We pray this through the Blood of the Lamb, Amen and Amen.
"My God will fully supply whatever you need, in accord with his glorious riches in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:19)

FDA Approves First-Of-Its-Kind Pill For Deadly Pancreatic Cancer
|
|
|
Rasonque nearly doubled median survival in a clinical trial, offering a new targeted treatment for patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
The Food and Drug Administration approved a first-of-its-kind targeted therapy Wednesday for the most common form of pancreatic cancer, marking a major advance against one of the nation’s deadliest and most stubborn malignancies.
Rasonque, the brand name for daraxonrasib, is a once-daily tablet designed to interfere with RAS proteins that drive tumor growth in most patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
The FDA approved Rasonque for adults with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have already received at least one systemic treatment or are not candidates for multidrug systemic therapy.
The medication’s initial approval applies only to patients with advanced disease who meet those conditions. Its performance in a large clinical trial nevertheless represents an extraordinary development for patients whose treatment options have historically been limited.
Median Survival Nearly Doubled
The approval was based on a randomized clinical trial involving 500 adults with previously treated metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Patients who received Rasonque lived for a median of 13.2 months, compared with 6.7 months among those treated with standard chemotherapy, according to the FDA.
“This drug showed unprecedented results in an area of high unmet need,” said Angelo de Claro, director of the FDA’s Oncology Center of Excellence.
Rasonque received approval approximately six and a half months before the agency’s formal deadline. The drug had previously received Breakthrough Therapy, Orphan Drug, and Priority Review designations. (American Liberty) Read more here

Abba, we give You high praise for bringing forth a medication that can possibly extend life for those with pancreatic cancer. You know better than we do how the medical community has struggled trying to find something that could add to the number of positive outcomes with pancreatic patients Guide and direct those who are searching for and developing drugs that can heal bodies and save lives. Open doors and bring new information into the light that those You have called to develop medicine to help your kids will "see" with Your eyes where the path is and how to walk it out with You. We ask for Your mercy and grace for those who need medicine that can heal their bodies or even extend their time with family, every day is precious and a blessing. Jesus, come and heal us, give us hope to carry us through the dark times. We ask this in the name Yahweh Rapha, The Lord Who Heals.
20 He sent out his word and healed them;
he rescued them from the grave.

US Military Transport Plane Lands in Moscow
|
|
|
A U.S. military transport plane mysteriously landed in Moscow’s Vnukovo airport on Aug. 25 after departing from Riga, Latvia.
A U.S. Boeing C-17A Globemaster III with the U.S. registered tail number 07-7181 left Riga at 8:48 a.m. (Moscow time) and landed at Moscow’s Vnukovo International Airport around 10:04 a.m. (Moscow time), according to Flightradar24, a live air traffic tracking website.
The arrival of the U.S. transport aircraft in Moscow comes just one day after Ukraine celebrated the 35th anniversary of its independence after breaking away from the Soviet Union.
The Boeing C-17A Globemaster III had previously landed at the Riga airport on Aug. 23 after departing from Joint Base Andrews in Camp Springs, Maryland, according to Flightrader24 data.
Before this, the last direct flight of a U.S. registered aircraft from Europe to Russia was when special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in January to discuss the war between Russia and Ukraine.
The Kremlin said it had no information on the airplane’s arrival on Tuesday. The Kremlin also indicated this past week that there was no information about another meeting in Moscow with Witkoff and Kushner.
Boeing’s C-17A Globemaster III is an Air Force transport aircraft that can carry up to 170,900 pounds. The plane is 174 feet long and has a wingspan of almost 170 feet. The aircraft is capable of transporting armored vehicles, trucks, trailers, and 69-ton M1 Abrams battle tanks. (The Epoch Times) Read more here.

Abba, strange things are happening and no one is answering questions. We give You praise and blessings that You know exactly what this flight was about, and we ask that Holy Spirit be the protector of all that was done and those involved. Father God, there is so much that We The People don't know about, and in some cases that is as it should be, but we ask You to bring into light those things being kept in the dark that should not be hidden. We ask for truth and transparency in all parts of our government, we ask that all employees in our government who are our enemies be exposed and have legal actions taken against them where appropriate. We thank You, Jesus, that You are for us and not against us We ask this in the name Yahweh Jireh, The Lord Will Provide.
21 But whoever lives by the truth comes
into the light, so that it may be
seen plainly that what they have done
has been done in the sight of God.
(John 3:21)

Muslim Brotherhood-linked networks embedded across Canadian institutions, new report alleges
|
|
Report maps how ideological networks acquired legitimacy, public funding and political influence in Canada
|
|
|
A new report is warning that networks aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood have become deeply embedded in Canada, raising concerns that Islamist influence taking root north of the border could pose a broader threat to the U.S. and Western democracies.
A report from the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) revealed ties between Muslim Brotherhood-aligned groups and Canadian democratic institutions, civil society, electoral politics and higher education, demonstrating similarities with other activist movements in the West, a phenomenon some analysts have described as the "red-green alliance."
"Canada's challenge is not simply the presence of individual extremist voices or isolated institutional weakness. The report maps how interconnected ideological networks acquire legitimacy, institutional access, public funding, political influence and protection from scrutiny," Charles Asher Small, the research institute's executive director, told Fox News Digital.
Small warned that Canadian democracy traditionally has been rooted in openness, notions of citizenship, civil liberties and public trust but has since faced a dynamic of malign foreign influence that could promote ideological entryism, antisemitism and efforts to weaken democratic accountability.
The roughly 200-page report, titled, "Assault on Democratic Values and Principles: How Islamist Entryism Weakens Civil Society and Higher Education in Canada," claimed "numerous apparent links" between the Muslim Association of Canada, a nonprofit based in Mississauga, Canada, and the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization established in Egypt in 1928 by ideologue Hasan al-Banna as part of a wider vision to create a global Islamic caliphate governing nations with rigid interpretations of Islamic law, rules and regulations from the majority Sunni sect.
The report alleged that leaders of the Muslim Association of Canada, one of the largest Muslim charitable organizations in Canada, operating mosques, community centers, schools and educational programs, were "directly or indirectly" associated with the Muslim Brotherhood and that those relationships could influence the charitable organization’s activities.
"The ISGAP report is nothing more than recycled Islamophobic tropes dressed up as research. It is a biased, unsubstantiated hit piece that relies on discredited allegations that were themselves challenged by the Ontario Superior Court for their apparent bias," the Muslim Association of Canada told Fox News Digital in a statement.

Abba, the enemy is raging everywhere, trying to infiltrate and bring down as many governments as he can to ultimately bring them into submission to Allah and his authority. Father, this is a war that has been on-going for centuries, same war, different names and faces. We bow before You and ask in Your mercy and love to protect the US, Canada, and all nations from the oppressive hand of those deceived into believing that Allah is god, not You. Holy Spirit, You know where plans are being created and unbelief is being spoken and spread, we ask You to pour out The fear of God into the hearts of all who participate in spreading lies, unrest and anarchy. We ask You to send out Warrior Angels to fight this battle in the heavenlies and bring it to conclusion once and for all! Jesus, we ask You to raise up voices within these countries to just say NO, to fast and pray seeking Your face, Your guidance and Your blessings. We ask this in the name Yahweh Sabaoth, The Host Of Heaven's Armies.
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance.
(Proverbs 1:5)

Darline Graham wins GOP runoff for SC Senate seat
|
|
|
Sen. Darline Graham has won the GOP nomination for the Senate term her brother was campaigning for before his sudden death. Decision Desk HQ called the race for the appointed incumbent at 8:38 p.m. ET and NBC News followed shortly after.
She will go on to face Annie Andrews in November.
Darline Graham is the first woman to represent South Carolina in the U.S. Senate after being appointed to the seat in the wake of her brother Lindsey Graham's death in July. After winning Tuesday's GOP primary runoff, she has a chance to become the first woman elected to the Senate by the state.
She grew up in Central, in the Midlands of South Carolina, with her brother and parents, who owned a pool hall, bar and restaurant.
The two faced hardship early on after their parents' deaths within a year of one another. Their mother died in 1976 of Hodgkin's lymphoma, and 15 months later, their father died of a heart attack, USA TODAY previously reported.
She was 13 years old when her father died, and Lindsey Graham raised his sister after their parents' deaths. In a 2015 interview with The New York Times, Graham described her brother as "kind of like a brother, a father and a mother rolled into one."
Graham is married to Larry Nordone, has two daughters and holds a master's degree in rehabilitation counseling.
Before actively taking part in politics, Graham worked in disability services and workforce development. (USA Today) Read more here.

Abba, thank You that Darline Graham had the courage and strength to be willing to fill her brother Llndsey's shoes, his very big shoes!. Her seat in congress involves so much that she isn't familiar with, give her the grace and mercy to have open eyes and ears as You teach her step by step as she walks this out with You. We ask You to give her wisdom and understanding as she works through learning about bills and committees, votes and filibusters! Holy Spirit, speak into her heart when she needs awareness of when "politics are in play", not just information. Protect her heart, mind, spirit, emotions and body, make Your voice her intuition as she meets new people, as she finds allies who can be trusted. We ask this in the name Yahweh Rohi, The Lord Our Shepherd.
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I lack nothing.
(Psalm 23:1)

1. Netanyahu says he told Trump to ‘tighten the siege’ on Iran ahead of fresh sanctions - Times of Israel
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in footage broadcast Wednesday that he urged US President Donald Trump to consider tightening the “siege” on Iran during their July meeting in Washington, and cautioned that it would be impossible to make a deal with Tehran, calling the regime’s leaders “savages.”
Netanyahu linked his proposal to the expanded sanctions campaign threatened by the United States this week.The new measures, detailed by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, target Iran’s digital assets and technology, gold, aviation and shipping sectors, with secondary sanctions potentially affecting entities in the United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong, China, Singapore and Europe transporting Iranian oil.
Netanyahu said he and Trump discussed three possible approaches to Iran during their White House meeting — diplomacy, military action and increasing pressure on Tehran — while expressing doubt that an agreement could be reached with what he called “those savages” in Iran. (Read more)

2. IDF’s West Bank chief said to warn PM that settler attacks could spark major Palestinian terror outbreak - Times of Israel
The most senior Israel Defense Forces officer in the West Bank warned during a closed-door security assessment on Monday that mounting settler violence could ignite a broader escalation in the territory, Channel 12 reported.
“There has been a significant decline in the scale of [Palestinian] terrorism over the past two years, but there is one match that could ignite everything in an instant – nationalist crime,” Central Command chief Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth was quoted by Channel 12 news as telling Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior officials.
“The IDF’s attention is constantly being diverted to such incidents instead of thwarting Palestinian terrorism,” he reportedly added.
According to the report, Netanyahu then asked IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir what the military would do if the West Bank erupted and what plan it had in place. (Read more)

3. Mladenov tells UNSC that IDF, Hamas are causing Gaza ceasefire to unravel
- Jerusalem Post
Nickolay Mladenov, director-general of the Peace Council, censured both Israel and Hamas for their failure to uphold the terms of the ceasefire in a Wednesday statement to the United Nations Security Council.
"Will another strike on a munitions depot stop Hamas from rearming or tightening its grip on Gaza?" Mladenov asked. "It will not."
Addressing Hamas's activities, Mladenov asserted that "every weapon carried, every tunnel still worked on, and every convoy still obstructed, sets the process back...it will be Palestinian civilians, women and children, who will bear the consequences." (Read more)

4. IDF investigation contradicts initial account of PA detention in Binyamin
- Israel National News
An IDF investigation has found that Palestinian Authority security forces set up a checkpoint this week in Area C in the Binyamin Region, where they are not authorized to operate, and unlawfully detained IDF reservist Shlomo Rosenthal as he travelled on the so-called "Strongholds Route." According to the investigation's findings, the security forces arrested Rosenthal on their own initiative and only then handed him over to the IDF.
The findings disprove the initial version of the events, according to which the PA forces arrived to assist Rosenthal after he was assaulted due to immediate danger to him. The investigation supports the main points of Rosenthal's version, which he recounted to Arutz Sheva following the incident. (Read more)

1. Christians erupt with outrage over El-Sayed’s answer when pressed on Sharia law - DML News
Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed sparked controversy on social media Monday night after comparing Sharia law to Christian canon law during an interview with Fox News anchor Jesse Watters.
“Getting rid of Sharia law is White supremacy?” Watters said to El-Sayed, bringing up past comments from the Michigan candidate opposing a ban on Sharia law and comparing those efforts to White supremacy. “Can you explain that one?”
Sayed responded by comparing Sharia, Islamic law based on religious texts, to Catholic Church law and governance. “Nobody is trying to push Sharia law on anyone else, just like I hope nobody is trying to push canon law on anybody else, because we live in an America where you should have the freedom of your religion,” El-Sayed said.

Lord, open our eyes to the threats within our nation. Show us as Christians that it is important to be involved in politics locally and nationally to help preserve our values.

2. Trump administration issues pause on visa appointments for applicants worldwide - DML News
President Donald Trump’s administration has issued a pause on visa appointments for applicants around the world during an ongoing immigration crackdown by the U.S. government in the Republican leader’s second term in the White House.
A U.S. State Department spokesperson said on Tuesday that it launched a global training initiative at all U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide and that appointments for visa services will be adjusted to accommodate the training.
Trump has pursued an aggressive deportation drive and immigration crackdown that includes revocations of visas and green cards and rejection of applications over a. range of reasons like political opinions and pro-Palestinian protests against U.S. ally Israel’s assault on Gaza. He says the crackdown aims to improve domestic security. Read more

3. State Dept. Commits $1.4B to Faith-Based Health Aid - Million Voices
The State Department is turning to churches and faith-based charities to carry out a major piece of America’s foreign aid work. Officials announced nearly $2 billion in new partnerships with faith-based and community organizations that provide global health care and humanitarian assistance around the world.
The State Department called it the largest allocation of global health foreign assistance to faith-based groups in more than 20 years. Officials said the announcement reflects the Trump administration’s commitment to partnering with organizations that show “faith in action” and have a track record of delivering aid in difficult places.
The funding falls under what the administration calls the America First Global Health Strategy, or AFGHS. Under this plan, the funding comes as the Trump administration reshapes U.S. foreign assistance around measurable outcomes, locally anchored partnerships, and directing more resources toward frontline service delivery rather than administrative overhead.

Lord, we thank You for every missionary, aid worker, and local church volunteer who will carry this funding into some of the hardest and most dangerous corners of the earth. Protect them, provide for them, and let the care they deliver point hurting people back to You. Give wisdom to the officials directing these resources so that every dollar reaches those who need it most.
“I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.” (Matthew 25:36)

4. New Accounts Give Foster Youth a Financial Head Start - Million Voices
Every year, more than 23,000 children age out of the American foster care system. Many leave with no savings, no safety net, and no family to fall back on if things go wrong. A new federal effort wants to change that story. Fostering the Future Accounts, championed by First Lady Melania Trump, are now rolling out across the country to give foster youth their own dedicated savings account before they ever turn 18.
The accounts build on Trump Accounts, a new savings and investment tool created under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Under the new guidance, state, territorial, and tribal child welfare agencies can open one of these accounts on behalf of a child in their care, even when no parent is available to do it.
Each account can start with a one-time federal seed deposit. States and outside donors can then add more over time, and the money grows through investment until the child
turns 18. Read more

Lord, we lift up every child growing up without a permanent family. Give them a sense of Your presence when earthly parents cannot be there, and surround them with caseworkers, foster families, and mentors who reflect Your steady love. Bless the leaders working to build this financial foundation, and may it grow into real stability for young lives that have already known too much uncertainty.

5. American Bar Association’s Power Faces Federal Challenge - Million Voices
The federal government is taking new steps to end the American Bar Association’s decades-long control over who gets to become a lawyer. President Trump’s Department of Education is now recommending that the ABA lose its power to accredit the nation’s law schools, a role it has held since 1952.
This is not a small bureaucratic tweak. Nearly 200 law schools across the country rely on ABA accreditation so their graduates can qualify for federal student aid and sit for the bar exam in most states. If the ABA loses that authority, the way future lawyers are trained and licensed could look very different.
This fight has been building for a while. In April 2025, President Trump signed an executive order directing the Department of Education to review whether the ABA should keep its accrediting power, citing what the order called unlawful diversity requirements. Read more

Father, we ask for wisdom for the officials weighing this decision and for integrity in every institution that trains and licenses those who will practice law in our courts. Raise up lawyers and judges who love justice and fear You above the approval of any professional guild. Guard the legal profession from ideology and restore it to a genuine pursuit of truth.
“when justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.” (Provebs 21:15)

6. 29,000 Votes Decided Who Controls the House - Million Voices
The single closest House race in the entire country came out of California’s 13th District, where Democrat Adam Gray unseated Republican incumbent John Duarte by a margin so thin that election officials needed nearly a month to certify it. Out of more than 200,000 ballots cast, Gray’s winning margin was just 187 votes.
That race alone determined whether Republicans would hold a 221-214 majority or the 220-215 majority they ended up with. One analysis of the cycle noted that Gray’s win came in a rematch that saw Duarte defeat Gray by only 564 votes two years earlier, meaning the same two candidates traded a congressional seat back and forth by margins smaller than most local school board races.
California’s 13th District was not an isolated fluke. It was the first of ten House races nationwide, spanning states from Iowa to Texas, that were each decided by fewer than 6,000 votes. Read more

Father, thank You for the gift of self-government and for every citizen entrusted with a vote. Raise up believers who take that stewardship seriously, and give them wisdom, courage, and discernment as they consider who will represent them. Let Your justice and truth guide the outcome of every close election still to come.

Stupidocrisy: Socialism’s Convenient Case of Amnesia
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, August 26, 2026
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) recently declared that Democratic Socialists are “fundamentally pro-democracy,” believe in the ballot box and respect election results. Sounds comforting. Yes, American socialists believe in elections because elections provide the means to obtain the political power necessary to implement their agenda. The real test comes afterward. Socialism requires increasing government control over economic resources and production, even freedom of speech and free exercise of religion. History demonstrates that when government controls the economy, it eventually possesses enormous leverage over the people who depend upon it. That is where the sales pitch collides with reality.
In Russia, Lenin’s Bolsheviks seized power in 1917, and later dissolved the elected Constituent Assembly. Castro’s revolutionary movement overthrew Cuba’s government in 1959. Mao’s Communists prevailed through civil war. But what followed demonstrates the danger of concentrating political and economic power. Private property was confiscated, industries and agriculture came under state control, and political opposition became dangerous. The Soviet Union produced purges, executions and forced-labor camps. Mao’s collectivization and Great Leap Forward produced catastrophic famine, with scholarly estimates ranging from 15 million to 45 million deaths. Castro’s Cuba became a communist state where opponents were imprisoned, exiled and executed. Government became master rather than servant. Read More

U.N. Will Vote for New Secretary General in January
|
|
|
This fall, the United Nations will select a new person to serve as the UN’s tenth Secretary General in the 81 years of the UN’s existence. The new Secretary-General will take office on January 1, 2027.
While we pray for a godly Secretary-General, left-leaning influential globalist leaders like George Soros are working diligently to make sure that the next Secretary General is a woman, and not just any woman, but a woman from the Global South who embraces Radical Feminist Foreign Policy (RFFP). According to a major conservative watchdog at the UN, C-Fam, Mr. Soros has spent billions of dollars on a campaign focused on the selection of a radical feminist. However, George Soros denies any connection to the massive amounts of money given to the campaign.
... By embedding feminism into diplomacy, development, trade, and security — and publishing a practical handbook that other governments could copy — Sweden turned an abstract ideal into a usable policy model that rapidly spread across the world. Within a few years, nations across Latin America, Europe, and Africa began creating their own version of Feminist Foreign Policy, turning FFP into a global movement. It’s already reached Chile, Columbia, Mexico, France, Germany, Scotland, Slovenia, Spain, and Liberia. In March 2024, France became the first country in the world to explicitly enshrine abortion rights in its constitution.
Under the leadership of a Secretary-General who embraces FFP, growth would continue to expand exponentially.
So far, four women and three men make up the pool of potential UN candidates for the next Secretary-General. All the women embrace the Radical Feminist Foreign Policy. They are Michelle Bachelet (Chile), Maria Fernanda Garces (Ecuador), Rebecca Grynspa (Costa Rica), and Carolyn Rodrigues‑Birkett (Guyana).
The three men, Macky Sall (Senegal), Rafael Grossi (Argentina), and Olara Otunnu (Uganda), have not embraced any of the Radical Feminist Foreign Policy, nor have they taken a stance on abortion, which doesn’t mean they are against abortion on demand, as they are most likely to accept the liberal policy that already exists at the UN. (IFA) Read more here.

Father, we pray for the United Nations as they select a new Secretary-General. We pray for a godly person who will not embrace Radical Feminist Foreign Policy to lead the UN. Give the new Secretary-General wisdom to promote Your ways and protect the unborn.
"All nations whom You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And shall glorify Your name." (Psalm 86:9)

UN Prayer Watch Newsletter
for Israel, America and the Nations
August 2026
|
|
|
|
Greetings from New York City.
August was a very busy month for our team. A prayer team from TOS Ministries in Germany, led by Pastor Jobst and Charlotte Bittner, came to Washington, D.C. to seek the Lord together. We humbled ourselves before Him, thanking Him for the many blessings Germany received through men and women of God from America after WWII. We stood in the gap for America and its people, repenting for bringing replacement theology from Europe into the new land and for the injustices committed against Native American communities and enslaved people. We also confronted the deep roots of antisemitism present from the founding of the nation, now exposed and intensified after October 7, 2023. We believe God will move powerfully in America as people allow the Holy Spirit to examine their hearts, confront their own family histories, repent and take responsibility. This includes facing how Jewish people were treated and choosing a different path.
Returning to our UN Prayer Watch: please remain alert in the spirit as a watchman on the wall for Israel, America, and the nations, lifting up the issues highlighted below. The election for the next Secretary-General is a very important issue that needs our attention and prayer with Daniel 2: 20-22 (ESV). Daniel declares, “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, to whom belong wisdom and might. He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding; he reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.”

Lord, we pray for the leaders of the UN and all those in authority to seek Your face, to govern with wisdom, integrity, and compassion, and to lead with a hunger for righteousness. May they be guided by Your Spirit, making decisions that honor You and serve the common good of all peoples.

Ancient Christian amulet unearthed after 1,500 years may hold biblical secret
|
|
|
Archaeologists in Turkey have unearthed a 1,500-year-old Christian amulet containing a paper-thin sheet of gold — and experts believe it may contain a biblical passage.
The discovery, made at the Türkmen Karahöyük archaeological site in Konya, central Turkey, was reported by Turkish state media outlet Anadolu Agency (AA) earlier this summer.
An international team of roughly 60 researchers from 13 countries was excavating the site when the amulet was discovered.
The amulet dates back to the fourth or fifth centuries A.D. — a formative time in Christian history.
Inside its copper case is a thin, 0.1-millimeter gold sheet on which a passage from the Bible was "most likely" written, AA reported. It is still unclear which biblical passage it contains.
Pictures show the amulet as a small, dark and heavily corroded artifact — with researchers carefully examining and cleaning it.
Excavation co-director Michele Rüzgar Massa told AA that these types of amulets "are not very common."
"As far as we know, one similar example was found in Germany," said Massa, who added that the amulet likely belonged to a small child. (Fox News) Read More

"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name."
