Hundreds of College Students Baptized at Unite US Event at Pitt:
‘The Altar Was Full’
|
|
A collegiate-based ministry that first took root on a Southern campus three years ago ventured farther north Wednesday night than ever before – and saw the same outpouring of the Spirit that has marked its earlier stops.
Several thousand students packed the University of Pittsburgh’s Petersen Events Center for a Unite US gathering that saw hundreds make decisions for Christ, with baptisms continuing well past midnight. Unite US is a movement that began on the campus of Auburn University in the fall of 2023 and quickly spread to other campuses, drawing some 50,000 students over two and a half years across the Southeast and West – but until Wednesday night had not ventured farther north than Cincinnati.
The Petersen Events Center is home to the school’s basketball teams and typically is filled with the sounds of college hoops – but on Wednesday night, it was the focus of worship, testimonies, and gospel proclamation. Unite US events are free.
“Hundreds made decisions to go all in with Jesus tonight and were baptized at the University of Pittsburgh!” Unite US visionary Tonya Prewett wrote on Instagram. “God continues to do something new on every campus, and tonight we witnessed many people getting physically healed! We baptized until after midnight, and the testimonies are pouring in!” She added, “The altar was full.” (Cross Walk) Read More Here and Watch Video!

Abba we CELEBRATE the powerful move of Your Holy Spirit at the University of Pittsburg! We are grateful for the outpouring of Your tangible presence, causing hundreds of students to surrender their lives to Christ and be baptized. We ask Your blessing upon 'Unite US' as they continue to travel across the nation to worship on College campuses and spread the Gospel to Gen Z generations. In the Name of Yeshua, we decree and declare an increase of salvations in Jesus Christ, as testimonies are given and life-changing transformations are experienced, by those relinquishing ALL to our King of kings and Lord of lords! Amen.
"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery." (Galatians 5:1)

House Republican Group Hijacks House Floor to Reject Radical Islam
|
|
A dozen members of the Sharia Free America Caucus spoke consecutively on the House floor Thursday evening against the “threat of radical Islamic terrorism” in the United States.
The speeches, organized by Republican Texas Reps. Keith Self and Rep. Chip Roy, the founders of the caucus, claimed that America was on the same migration trajectory as Europe and drew attention to a string of recent “radicalized Islamist” attacks in the United States.
“These attacks, clustered in just a few weeks, shows that the enemy are inside the gates,” Self said.
“We cannot allow that here in the United States,” Self continued. “According to Islam, many non-Muslims like me are regarded as infidels, and many others who convert to Christianity or any other religion are labeled apostates. Both infidels and apostates are punishable by death in Islam.”
Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill., added that “we are currently witnessing a rise of radical Islamic terrorist who claim allegiance to Sharia law.”
Self also said Sharia law represents a threat to the Constitution. “The American people demand that we stop an ideology seeking to replace the U.S. Constitution,” Self added.

Trump Says Iran Is 'Begging' for Deal, Adds 10 Days to Pause of Iranian Energy Plant Bombing
|
|
President Donald Trump said Thursday that he is extending the pause on strikes of Iranian energy plants by 10 days, hours after stating Iran is “begging to make a deal” in the fourth week of Operation Epic Fury.
Shortly before entering the East Room of the White House for a Greek Independence Day celebration, the president took to Truth Social to announce the extension.
“As per Iranian Government request, please let this statement serve to represent that I am pausing the period of Energy Plant destruction by 10 Days to Monday, April 6, 2026, at 8 P.M., Eastern Time,” he wrote.
“Talks are ongoing and, despite erroneous statements to the contrary by the Fake News Media, and others, they are going very well. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” the president added.
Trump’s comments came hours after he told reporters that Iran desperately wants a deal to end the war.
“We estimated it would take approximately four to six weeks to achieve our mission; 26 days in, we’re extremely, really, a lot ahead of schedule. The Iranian regime is now admitting to itself that they have been decisively defeated,” he said. (Breitbart) Read more here.

We pray Lord for wisdom and discernment for our President as he navigates the complexities of international relations with Iran. God, help our leaders seek your face and your solutions to these tough issues. We pray that the leaders of Iran yield to peace and what’s best for their nation in Jesus' name. And lastly we pray for unity among nations in pursuit of stability and justice. Amen.
“You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you." (Isaiah 26:3)

Russia Giving Deliveries of Battlefield Drones to Iran
|
|
The flow of drones between Tehran and Moscow has reversed, after years of Iran supplying weapons for the war in Ukraine, with Russia now thought to be delivering weapons for use in the Middle East.
Russia is shipping deliveries of complete battlefield drones to its ally Iran, in a bid to keep the country afloat as it attempts to withstand the concentrated fire of the United States and Israel. Iran long supplied bulk quantities of Shahed-type kamikaze bomb drones to Russia for the Ukraine War, which Moscow began to produce itself with design improvements based on their battlefield experiences.
Perhaps the most important upgrade to the drone by Russia was improvements to its anti-jamming capabilities, to prevent it being sent off-course by satellite navigation jamming or spoofing. If these upgraded drones are what is being sent back to Iran, it could mean a material improvement in their ability to wage war on the Middle East.
Britain’s Financial Times reports the drone deliveries is the first time Russia is known to have sent lethal aid to Iran over the course of the near-month old war, citing their claims on two unnamed “officials briefed on the intelligence”.
Also reported was the claim that these alleged Western intelligence sources believe that Iran had requested deliveries of advanced Russian air defence missiles, but that Moscow had turned them down out of concern of drawing them into direct conflict with the United States. A key feature of the Iran War so far has been the conspicuous failure of Iran’s air defence systems to deny its skies to American warplanes.
While Iranian propaganda has made constant claims and the United States has lost a handful of aircraft — generally because of friendly fire or accidents, Washington says — the simple fact is America has been able to operate thousands of sorties in Iran’s skies unmolested. The prominent use of much older, non-stealth aircraft like the B-52 bomber and A-10 air support jet and use of stand-in or short range ordinance underlines the degree to which Iran’s mix of indigenous and Chinese-designed air defence missiles have failed.

Scathing report claims nation's oldest labor union 'betrayed' MAGA members through 'shocking' spending
|
|
|
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen is the oldest labor union in North America
|
|
|
One of the nation’s most prominent railroad unions is facing new scrutiny after a watchdog report alleged its leadership is quietly working against the political views of its members who support President Donald Trump's agenda.
The report, released by the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), claims the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET), one of the nation’s oldest labor unions, is run by leaders who are endorsing and promoting Democratic policies and candidates despite a membership base that data suggests largely supports the president.
The report, which alleges the union "betrayed" its MAGA members, points to the union’s endorsement of the Harris-Walz ticket in the 2024 election cycle, as well as its ties to prominent Democrats, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and former Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown, who is running for Senate again.
While BLET has touted Republicans in recent years, including earlier this year when it applauded Vice President JD Vance and the bipartisan reintroduction of the Railway Safety Act (RSA), the report highlights repeated criticism of Trump-era policies, including transportation regulations, immigration enforcement and the conservative-backed Project 2025 agenda, alongside praise for the policies of the Biden administration.
A review of the union's social media account by AAF shows numerous examples of the union opposing various moves by the first Trump administration during his presidential campaign against incumbent Joe Biden, which the report describes as evidence of "woke leadership."
"In the lead-up to the 2024 election, BLET issued 14 tweets that criticized the actions of the first Trump administration while praising the Biden administration's railroad policies," the report says. "The messaging was clearly intended to skew union members toward the Democratic presidential ticket. In these tweets, they attacked nearly every major Trump-era rail policy decision while framing the Biden administration's actions positively."
The union’s public support of Democrats had a financial angle as well, as the report states that the organization spent more than $26 million on political activity in recent years, with the vast majority supporting Democratic candidates and causes to a degree that AAF referred to as "shocking."
According to the report, 99% of the union’s party committee donations went to Democrats. (Fox News) Read more here.

We thank you, Lord God for exposing this hypocrisy and breach of trust. We pray that accountability would be had, and that justice would be implemented in this situation in Jesus' name. We pray, Lord, that all lies would be exposed and we cut at the root of all evil agendas and break it now, in Jesus' name. Amen.

1. Israel shifts to hitting Iran’s economy, as it enters ‘completion phase’ of war
- Times of Israel
A month into the war with Iran, the Israeli military has almost completed bombing all of the targets it defined for itself at the start of the conflict, and has now been ordered by Israel’s political leadership to shift to hitting “economic” targets of the Iranian regime, The Times of Israel learned on Monday.
Israel launched its campaign against Iran, alongside the United States, to degrade the regime’s military capabilities, distance threats posed by Iran — including its nuclear and ballistic missile programs — and “create the conditions” for the Iranian people to topple the regime, the military and other Israeli leaders have said.
The Israeli Air Force has conducted hundreds of waves of strikes in Iran, dropping over 13,000 bombs on Iranian regime and military sites, including air defense systems, ballistic missile launchers, weapon production sites, some nuclear facilities, and various headquarters. (Read more)

2. Israel says it will accept any Trump decision on next phase of Iran war
- World Israel News
Israel has informed the United States that it will accept any decision by President Donald Trump regarding the next phase of the war with Iran, a senior Israeli political official said Monday, signaling alignment with Washington as discussions continue.
The official told Ynet that Jerusalem has conveyed it will support whatever course of action Trump chooses, marking a shift from last June’s operation, when Israel objected to ending the fighting, and Trump ordered Israeli Air Force jets to turn back.
“This is not that event,” the senior official said. “The moment he makes the decision, we go with the decision. In the meantime, we are trying to exhaust the target bank.” (Read more)

3. Israel to keep effective control of southern Lebanon, attacks on Hezbollah to continue post-war - Jerusalem Post
Israel plans to keep “effective control” of southern Lebanon even for an indefinite period after the current war ends, presuming that Hezbollah will not yet have disarmed, defense sources said on Monday.
At the same time, multiple IDF sources have previously said that this effective control will not look the same as Israel’s occupation of southern Lebanon between 1982 and 2000, when it had IDF and Southern Lebanese Army’s mostly Christian forces physically present throughout the area.
But on Monday, defense sources got more specific about what this effective control would look like and how it would be different from the prior era.
Defense sources said that there would not necessarily be a heavy IDF physical footsoldier presence all the way up to the Litani River and throughout southern Lebanon at all times. (Read more)

4. Israel passes death penalty law for Palestinians convicted of lethal attacks
- Reuters
JERUSALEM, March 30 (Reuters) - Israel's parliament passed a law on Monday making death by hanging a default sentence for Palestinians convicted in military courts of deadly attacks, fulfilling a pledge by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right allies.
The law would only apply to Israelis convicted of murder whose attacks aimed at "ending Israel's existence", meaning it would mete out the death penalty for Palestinians but not for Jewish Israelis who committed similar crimes, critics say.
The legislation has drawn international criticism of Israel, which is already under scrutiny for increasing violence by Jewish settlers against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and its war in Gaza. (Read more)

5. Israel foils Hamas terror network run from Turkey - JNS
The Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) said on Monday it uncovered a Hamas terror network in Judea and Samaria that was directed by a Hamas operative based in Turkey.
The cell was allegedly overseen by Mahmoud Radwan, a Hamas member released in a 2025 prisoner exchange and deported to Turkey after serving a prison term in Israel for his role in the 2001 murder of Yossi Alfasi. Radwan is accused of recruiting two residents of the village of Azzun, near Qalqiliya in western Samaria, for planned terrorist activity.
According to the Shin Bet, Radwan met the recruits in Turkey in December 2025, discussed his ongoing terrorist involvement, and encouraged them to join his efforts.
Indictments were recently filed against the suspects. (Read more)

2. Senate Democrats defeat amendment to require photo ID to vote - The Hill
Senate Democrats on Thursday defeated an amendment sponsored by Sen. Jon Husted (R), Ohio’s former secretary of state, to require voters to show photo ID when casting ballots in person or voting by mail, despite previous statements by Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) that Democrats support photo ID requirements for elections.
The Senate voted 52-47 to defeat the amendment, which needed 60 votes to be adopted.

3. Vance says war will continue ‘a little while longer’; Iran and its proxies keep up attacks on Israel - New York Post
“This country is threatening us in all these ways. They’re still trying to build a nuclear weapon. We need to neuter them for a very, very long time, and that’s the purpose.
Vance said the goal of the mission is to ensure that the US doesn’t have to go back into Iran in a “year down the road.”
“We’re taking care of business. We’re going to be out of there soon, and gas prices are going to come back down,” he concluded in an interview released Friday. (Read more)

Lord, we pray that this war will end soon. And that all the goals that had been set for the outcome of the war such as not having to go back into Iran in a year will be successful.

4. Four weeks in, Trump’s conflicting signals on Iran war frustrate GOP lawmakers and political allies - CNN
President Donald Trump’s conflicting signals over the future of the war in Iran have spurred deepening frustration among GOP lawmakers and allies who fear the administration still lacks a clear endgame after four weeks of fighting. Trump over the last several days has simultaneously expressed a desire for peace and a willingness to plunge the US into a new and more dangerous phase of the war.
He has insisted that Iran is eager to negotiate a truce while also ordering thousands more troops to the region over the coming days and weeks.
And as Trump nears his self-imposed deadline for a war he insists is ahead of schedule and effectively won, he has repeatedly declined to specify what would constitute a victory — leaving all but his closest advisers largely in the dark. “I just read a story today that I’m desperate to make a deal. I’m not,” Trump said Thursday, just days after hailing progress toward negotiating a “complete and total” resolution of the war. “I’m the opposite of desperate. I don’t care.” (Read more)

5. Rubio says US 'concerned' by settler violence, insists Israel will act against it - The Times of Israel
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Washington is “concerned” by settler violence in the West Bank but claims that Israel will take action against the largely unchecked, daily phenomenon.
Asked about settler violence while taking questions from reporters in France, Rubio responds, “We’re concerned about that” and notes that US President Donald Trump has previously expressed his opposition last year “against any sort of change in the status quo in the West Bank.”
Trump in September said he would not allow Israel to annex the West Bank amid efforts by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition to take the controversial step.
“There’s a lot going on in the world right now, but that’s a topic we follow very closely,” Rubio says, referring to matters in the West Bank.
The top US diplomat goes on to insist that the Israeli government is taking the issue seriously, noting that in addition to largely attacking Palestinians, the assailants have sometimes targeted Israeli security forces. (Read more)

6. Hamas disarmament plan sees Gaza's tunnels destroyed, arms given up in stages - The Jerusalem Post
Hamas would be required to allow the destruction of its vast Gaza tunnel network as it lays down its arms in stages under a disarmament plan that was presented to the terrorist organization by US President Donald Trump's "Board of Peace," and viewed by Reuters.
The plan follows an eight-month timeline that begins with a US-backed committee of Palestinian technocrats taking security control of Gaza and concludes with Israeli forces withdrawing completely upon "verification that Gaza is free of weaponry."
Hamas' disarmament is a critical sticking point in talks to implement Trump's plan for Gaza and cement an October ceasefire that halted two years of full-blown war. Hamas has long rejected calls to lay down its weapons, which are believed to have largely been transported and stored in tunnels under Gaza. (Read more)

The Fire, the Shadow, and the Fulfillment
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, March 30, 2026
Leviticus 6:1(8)-8:36, Tzav (“Command”), continues the detailed instructions for offerings, but beneath the procedures sit something deeper, a pattern of relationship between God and His people. Burnt offerings remain on the altar through the night. Grain offerings are mixed with oil and frankincense, with one portion for ADONAI and the rest for the priests. Sin and guilt offerings are eaten in a holy place, while peace offerings are shared among the one who brings it, the priests, and even invited guests. This is fellowship, order, and access to a holy God. The portion closes with Moses consecrating Aaron and his sons for seven days, establishing a priesthood set apart to maintain that connection daily. But there is a lot more to this.
At the center of it all is a command that carries both weight and clarity, “Fire is to be kept burning on the altar continually; it is not to go out” (Leviticus 6:13). That fire represents God’s presence, His holiness, and His ongoing engagement with His people. It echoes the fire on Mount Sinai and becomes a daily reminder that God is not distant. The priests were to guard it carefully, never substituting their own source. Even when the Tabernacle moved, the embers were preserved and carried forward. That picture still speaks. Our faith is not meant to run hot one day and cold the next. As Romans 12:11 says, “Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.” The fire may need tending, but it must never be allowed to go out. Read More

Hamas disarmament plan sees Gaza's tunnels destroyed, arms given up in stages, text shows

Hamas would be required to allow the destruction of its vast Gaza tunnel network as it lays down its arms in stages under a disarmament plan that was presented to the terrorist organization by US President Donald Trump's "Board of Peace," and viewed by Reuters.
The plan follows an eight-month timeline that begins with a US-backed committee of Palestinian technocrats taking security control of Gaza and concludes with Israeli forces withdrawing completely upon "verification that Gaza is free of weaponry."
Hamas' disarmament is a critical sticking point in talks to implement Trump's plan for Gaza and cement an October ceasefire that halted two years of full-blown war. Hamas has long rejected calls to lay down its weapons, which are believed to have largely been transported and stored in tunnels under Gaza.
'One authority, one law, one weapon'
The plan's full text, which was first reported by Al Jazeera, was shared with Reuters by two Palestinian officials involved in the talks. A Hamas official confirmed its authenticity. The Board of Peace presented the plan to Hamas last week. Hamas has not commented publicly on it.
The plan includes two components: a 12-point document titled "Steps to Complete the Implementation of Trump's Comprehensive Peace Plan for Gaza," and a five-stage timeline during which Hamas would surrender its arms over eight months.
The document says that all armed factions in Gaza, including groups like Islamic Jihad, will participate in a disarmament process that will be overseen by the Palestinian technocrats, known as the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza.
"Gaza will be governed under the principle of one authority, one law, one weapon, whereby only individuals authorized by (NCAG) may possess weapons, and all armed factions will cease military activities," the document says.
The disarmament process will be "verified by the Weapons Collection Verification Committee," a body to be established by Nickolay Mladenov, the Board of Peace's lead envoy, the document says.
Reconstruction will only be allowed in areas that are designated as demilitarized, it says.

Jehovah Adonai,
Thank You, Holy One, for President Trump as he continues to try and bring Hamas to the point of being willing to lay down their arms and allow the destruction of their tunnel networks. Lord, You continue to make a way where there seems to be no way! This new plan presented by the Board of Peace to Hamas has two components: a 12 Point Document titled "Steps to Complete the Implementation of Trump's Comprehensive Peace Plan for Gaza," and a five stage timeline during which Hamas would surrender its arms over a period of eight months. We pray that Hamas will stick to this plan, Lord. We pray for
a miracle!
At what point, Lord, will enough be enough of allowing Satanic regimes to continue to plague the world with wickedness? Almighty God, we lay Iran and Hamas at the Judgement Seat of Your Throne! The world cries,"peace, peace" but Your word says there is no peace except in You. During this time of uncertainty, we pray for protection for the US, Israel and all of Your people. This plan says "One Authority, one law, and one weapon" and we love this saying. But Holy One, as we relinquish all control to You and lay all of our cares before You, we give You alone these words, for You are our Authority...You are our law.... and You are our weapon! Once again, Father, we declare, "Your will, not ours"! Together, we are standing on Your promises! In Jesus' name. Amen.
" And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." (Colossians 3:17)

Iran strike on Saudi Arabia’s Sultan Airbase destroys key US Air Force platforms
|
|
|
|
An Iranian strike that wounded US troops at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia also damaged multiple aircraft and likely completely destroyed an E-3 Sentry aircraft. The attack some 60 miles south of the capital of Riyadh in the early hours of March 27 is said to have involved a coordinated precision barrage of at least one Iranian ballistic missile and several attack drones.
According to reports, some 10 to 12 American service members were injured in the attack, with at least two in serious condition. The base, a major operating location for US Air Force platforms during the war, has been attacked several times since the beginning of Operation Epic Fury/Operation Roaring Lion. Earlier in the week, 14 others were wounded in an attack, and another missile strike on the base on March 1 killed one service member.
The strike on Friday hit an installation housing troops and also caused significant damage to US KC-135 Stratotanker refueling aircraft that are essential for sustaining long-range US and Israeli air operations, along with the E-3 Sentry AWACS, one of the most important command-and-control platforms in the US inventory.
The attack left a clear trail of destruction across the installation, seen in satellite images and photos shared across social media. At least two photos showed the rear fuselage of one E-3 burnt, and the radar dome destroyed on the tarmac next to the plane.
The loss of an E-3 Sentry AWACS carries strategic consequences far beyond the physical destruction of a single airframe, as it degrades the ability to detect incoming hostile threats and coordinate any retaliatory response. (Jerusalem Post) Read more here.

God Almighty,
Your Word promises us that the wickedness of the wicked will come to an end and everything will be in Your timing and not ours. Father, it grieves us to see our young men and women in our military being killed or injured in this war with Iran. We pray for comfort for their families, Lord! We pray, Lord, that You would destroy every ballistic missile and attack drones that were used to attack our troops in Saudi Arabia at our Prince Sultan Air Base!
We declare the destruction of every missile launching site in Iran and their partner entities whether above ground or underground. Destroy and lay to waste every nuclear site rendering them useless! Almighty God, save the people of Iran from this wicked regime and give them the peace that You have promised all of us. As Operation Epic Fury and Operation Roaring Lion continue, we pray for wisdom and keen supernatural discernment for our leaders. Let them strike when You say strike!
We ask that everything that the US and Israel have lost during this war will be restored sevenfold and the ability to detect hostile threats and co-ordinate retaliatory responses will be increased! Repair or replace the E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System Boeing 707 Aircraft quickly Lord. Lord Jesus, we are certain that You will never leave our troops or us because Your word is faithful and true! We turn this battle over to You and the Angelic Armies of heaven as we lay this prayer before YOU. In Jesus' name. Amen.
"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid and do not be discouraged." (Deuteronomy 31:8)

ADAMA, a maker of active ingredients and crop protection materials, says its Makhteshim plant in southern Israel is the one that was hit earlier in the Neot Hovav industrial zone.
The company says the factory was struck by either an Iranian missile or debris from a missile, adding that no injuries have been reported.
ADAMA, part of the Chinese-owned Syngenta Group, says the damage to the plant is not immediately known. (Times of Israel) Read more here.

Joining war, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis launch missile
attack on southern Israel
|
|
|
|
Yemen’s Houthis launched a ballistic missile attack at southern Israel on Saturday morning, triggering sirens in Beersheba and surrounding areas, in the first offensive from the Iran-aligned group since the start of the war with Iran.
In a statement, the Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack, saying they had targeted “sensitive Israeli military sites” with a “barrage of ballistic missiles.”
The IDF said one missile fired from Yemen was successfully shot down by air defenses.
The ballistic missile set off sirens in southern Israel, and no injuries were reported.
Several hours later, a cruise missile launched from Yemen was shot down over the Red Sea, according to the IDF. No sirens sounded in Israel for that attack, as no towns were under any threat, the military said.
In the evening, a drone, suspected to have been launched from Yemen, was intercepted by air defenses over the southernmost city of Eilat, according to the IDF.
The attacks came a day after the US-designated terror group warned it was prepared to intervene militarily if other countries joined the United States and Israel in their campaign against Iran, or if the Red Sea was used to launch attacks on the Islamic Republic.
“We confirm that our fingers are on the trigger for direct military intervention” if any new alliances join Washington and Israel against Iran and its allies, or if the Red Sea is used for “hostile operations” against Iran, the rebel group’s military spokesperson Yahya Saree said in a televised speech late Friday evening.
Saree also said the Houthis were prepared to act if what he called the escalation against Iran and the “axis of resistance” continued, but did not say what form any intervention would take. (Times of Israel) Read more here.

Father God, now that the war against Israel has increased its boundaries, we call forth more resources, both in heaven and on earth, who will take down every attack launched by the Houthis. We thank You, O Lord, that the victory belongs to YOU!
In the Name of Yeshua, we offer this prayer, amen and amen.

Europe's Deadliest Supervolcano Is Waking Up in Italy
|
|
Beneath the beautiful streets of Naples, something dangerous is stirring. Campi Flegrei isn't a typical volcano, it's a massive supervolcano that has been quietly breathing for centuries. But now, the ground is rising 15 millimeters every month. Thousands of earthquakes are shaking the area. And scientists say magnitude 5 earthquakes are not just possible, they're likely. Half a million people live inside the Red Zone. Another 800,000 are in the path of potential ashfall. And the ancient buildings were never built to survive what's coming. Is Italy facing an eruption worse than Pompeii? And what happens when a supervolcano finally wakes up? Animation is created by Bright Side.

"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."
