Has American leadership totally lost its collective mind, or are they intentional about destroying our country? It’s a fair question.

Often, Iran boldly and blatantly makes their intentions known. For example, for decades they have clearly and repeatedly stated their desire to wipe Israel off the map, and would have, if not for significant actions taken by Israel, the US and (at times) other allies.

Now, in very clear language, Iran’s Army Chief of Staff, Mohammad Bagheri boasts:

“If the criminal sanctions are lifted, Iran will be the largest arms supplier in the world, apart from the 3 largest powers in the world. Even the big countries in Europe will not have our power.”

~Jerusalem Post, 2/7/2022

Take him at his word! Unlike others, in the Middle East, you mean what you say! Words are not threats, but promises.

This, among other worldwide threats, begs important questions: Where do we put our hope? Who is the anchor of our faith?

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;
But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.

~Psalm 20:7

But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord;
I say, “You are my God.”

~Psalm 31:14

In God I have put my trust;
I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

~Psalm 56:11

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”

~Psalm 91:2

Friends, not matter what you are facing and no matter how far off the rocker our world falls, never misplace your hope, your faith or your trust! God is on the throne, and Jesus will, one day soon, redeem us from this sin-sick world. Hold fast!
