Biden Prepares To Hand America’s Sovereignty to the WHO 

Submitted by: Mat Staver
Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman 

The ultimate control over America’s health care and its national sovereignty will be put up for a vote next week at a meeting of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) governing legislative body, the World Health Assembly (WHA). 

On May 22-28, 2022, the 75th World Health Assembly will convene at the United Nations (U.N.) headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, with delegates from 194 nations, to vote on the Biden administration’s amendments that will hand over national sovereignty and authority to the WHO. 
. . . The contents of the proposed amendments were not made public until April 12, 2022, when a researcher discovered them. On May 6, the Biden administration finally posted the amendments for public comment, but the time to register expired after 24 hours and was open only to certain minorities. 

As can be seen in the highlighted text in Article 5 of the amendments titled “Surveillance,” the WHO will be monitoring “health threats” around the world and shall be developing early warning criteria for every country in the world for how to handle these “risks.” As stated, “WHO shall develop early warning criteria for assessing and progressively updating the national, regional, or global risk posed by an event of unknown causes or sources and shall convey this risk assessment to States Parties in accordance with Articles 11 and 45 where appropriate.” 

The amendments would also give “regional directors” within the WHO the legal authority to declare a “public emergency of international concern.” In addition, in the Article 6 titled “Notification,” it is now added that when the WHO informs a country that they are at a “potential risk of a public health emergency'” this country is obliged to hand over its public health information including “'genetic sequence data”' within 48 hours. 

Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver sated, “The proposed amendments would give the WHO global jurisdiction over the United States to declare health emergencies. We have already seen the lawless abuse of power under Joe Biden by the Centers for Disease Control, which the courts have fortunately blocked. Americans would have very little recourse against the WHO. The WHO has sovereign immunity, and an international court in The Hague would not consider the constitutional rights of Americans. America must not give up its sovereignty to the WHO. These amendments must be withdrawn immediately.” (Liberty Counsel) Read more here. 

- Father God, we REPENT that we have looked to man to solve our "health problems," and not to You. We REPENT that men have now created this Babylonian system of global governance, under which we would all function as "slaves" to the New World Order. Forgive us, Lord, for our own blindness and for not trusting You first in all matters that concern us . . .
 
We now call forth a PILLAR OF FIRE to STOP this deadly global treaty in its tracks, and in Your Mighty Name, we decree its demise, by Your mighty hand. Just as You stopped the Egyptians from attacking Your people at the Red Sea, that they not be harmed, we ask You for a miracle of divine intervention now that will stop this globalist enemy in its tracks. We speak confusion to these delegates and a cancellation of this vote, in Your Name Holy One, amen and amen!

    here is where your proud waves halt’."

Report: In 1st, US refuelers to take part in major Israeli drill for strike on Iran
Collaboration involving Israeli fighter jets and American refuelers seen as message to Iran regarding potential for US assistance in an actual Israeli attack  
The United States will participate in Israel’s largescale drill simulating a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities as part of the broader Chariots of Fire exercise later this month, Channel 13 reported on Tuesday evening.

According to the unsourced report, the US Air Force will serve as a complementary force, with refueling planes drilling with Israeli fighter jets as they simulate entering Iranian territory and carrying out repeated strikes.

The unprecedented Israel- US aerial collaboration in a drill simulating a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities is seen as a potential message to Iran amid long-stalled negotiations in Vienna over a return to the 2015 nuclear deal, a possibility Israel has repeatedly voiced its objection to, warning it would lead to “a more violent, more volatile Middle East.”

Large numbers of Israeli fighter jets –dozens, according to Kan TV news — will take part in the simulated attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities. The TV report noted that when Israel conducted a major drill for such an attack some 10 years ago, when it was widely reported to be on the point of striking Iran, the US did not participate.

The Israeli military has taken steps throughout the past year to prepare a credible military threat against Tehran’s nuclear facilities. The US, in turn, has expressed reluctance to prepare for a military confrontation with Iran but nonetheless said it would explore other options  if talks in Vienna fail. (Times of Israel) Read more here.  

- Thank You Father for the power of an overwhelming show of strength.  We pray that Iran would stop their plans to develop nuclear weapons and none of this exercise would be necessary.  However, we pray for wisdom and skill for every fighter pilot and that you would keep each one safe under the strength of Your might.  We bless Israel and ask You Father to show Yourself strong on their behalf.

- " . . .'to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me."     (Acts 26:18)

In Context: Nations Reciprocating Freedom
Sometimes, in the midst of heated national debate a controversy, it's helpful to take a step back to remember our history and be grateful for how God has blessed this Nation.

One such occasion that naturally prompts reflection is when a leader of another nation comes to ours, meets with our leaders, and shares words with them in a formal address. This past week brought exactly that with the visit and
address to Congress by His Excellency Kyriakos Mitsotakis from Greece. The “elected leader of the people who created democracy” addressed “the elected Representatives of the people who founded their country on the Greek model.”

Freedom is something to celebrate: “The birth of democracy in ancient Athens brought about an explosion of the creative spirit in Greece that produced the architecture, the art, the drama, and the philosophy that have shaped Western civilization ever since. The establishment of democracy in the United States has brought about the greatest expansion of human freedom and human progress the world has ever known. Ladies and gentlemen, last year, Greece celebrated 200 years since the beginning of our war of independence. And in a very strange but interesting twist of historical fate, it was the Greek people who were inspired by the foundation of American democracy when they rose against their oppressor to fight for their own freedom.”

Freedom is something to defend: “In the words of our Declaration of Independence: ‘Have we something lesser than other nations, that we remain deprived of these rights, or are we of a nature lower or less civilized, that we should view ourselves as unworthy to enjoy them and instead be condemned to an eternal slavery, subjected, like automata or beasts of burden, to the absurd caprices of a cruel tyrant. . . . These are rights which within Greece we have never ceased to defend by arms when times and circumstances have permitted.’”

Freedom is something to pass on: “The first school for girls, Madam Speaker, Madam Vice President, in Greece was founded in Athens in 1831 by an American pastor, John Hill. The Hill Memorial School still continues to teach Greek children today in the historic center of Athens. … And in its own way, Greece reciprocated. Among the Greek orphans who were brought across the Atlantic into the United States to escape the fighting after 1821 were a future Congressman and a commander in the U.S. Navy. Young Greeks saved from the war became American educators and writers. Many of them were dedicated abolitionists, for the eradication of slavery was a cause whose urgent necessity spoke directly to men and women who had once been enslaved themselves.”

In one of his closing thoughts he said, “One of the qualities that Greeks value the most is ‘sophrosyne,’ a word best translated as ‘self-control, temperance, and harmony.’”

US Congress makes Mitsotakis feel at home

Mitsotakis draws on common democratic bonds in US Congress speech: “On Tuesday Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis delivered a wide-ranging speech before a joint sitting of both houses of the US Congress in which he reflected on the common influence that the founding fathers of both nations drew upon, namely the ancient Greek idea of democracy to also highlight Ukraine's plight, divided Cyprus, the Parthenon Sculptures and the need to uphold the rule of law over authoritarianism and war.”

As the first to address Congress since COVID-19 began, Greek leader
warns Congress about internal democratic erosion, citing his country’s history: “The Greek prime minister said the U.S. and Greece are entwined both by the inspiration America's founding fathers drew from ancient Greek philosophers in their efforts to establish U.S. democracy and the example the American Revolution set for Greek revolutionaries in the early 19th century when they waged an eight-year war of independence from the Ottoman Empire.”

Turkish Media: Mitsotakis Was Applauded 37 Times In 42 Minutes In US Congress: “…he indirectly called upon Congress to be extremely cautious in reviewing Turkish arms procurements, as the Biden administration is reportedly poised to sell Ankara 40 F-16 fighter jets and kits to upgrade dozens more in its fleet.”


Father, we thank You for our heritage both in You and in the work You have done in the West to give freedom to people in many nations. We trust in You to complete the good work you've begun until the day of Jesus Christ.

“he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come” (Acts 24:25)

Access Code: 150411#


Dear Saints,

A lifestyle of REPENTANCE is so close to the heart of God.


Indeed, He commands us to  "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!" Matthew 3:2

How, then, can we approach His Throne of GRACE, in repentance?

We invite you to join us every week on Sunday evening, as we explore this vital topic together. We present a different prayer focus each week, leading us into repentance, so that we might approach His Throne of Grace in repentance, presenting ourselves to Him as a pure and a spotless Bride, without spot or wrinkle. (Ephesians 5:27)

Praying together, we desire to fulfill the mandate of Psalm 139:

" Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; 24 And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting." Psalm 139:24


You can join us, any Sunday evening, at 10:00 p.m. EST by calling:

712-770-5350
Access Code: 150411#

WELCOME!

 

". . . and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

"Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place."
(2 Chronicles 7:14,15)
