Franklin Graham Shares 'Jesus is the Reason for the Season' with 14,000 in Laos, Hundreds Choose Jesus
|
|
Evangelist Franklin Graham shared a message from the Bible about God's love and the true meaning of Christmas with more than 14,000 people in Laos over the weekend. Graham, in partnership with the Lao Evangelical Church, brought the Christmas of Love Festival to the Saint Phila Convention Hall in Vientiane, giving believers the opportunity to gather together for the first time publicly to lift up the name of Jesus. "If you can't remember anything else, you remember tonight: God loves you," Graham told the crowd. Worship leaders, including Charity Gayle, the Tommy Coomes Band, and the Lao Evangelical Church Worship Team led worship in the packed arena.
The president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) said the two-day event was years in the making. "It was a great privilege and honor to come to Vientiane at the invitation of the Lao Evangelical Church. They have been praying for years for this opportunity to share the message that God loves the people of Laos," said Graham. "I'm especially grateful to the government for welcoming me and giving the evangelical church this incredible opportunity." As a result of the outreach, more than 14,000 people heard the Gospel message and hundreds responded by putting their faith in the Lord. "We just had an incredible night in Vientiane. I thank God for this opportunity to share His love for the people of Laos," Graham wrote on Facebook Monday. "It was a blessing to pray with so many for the leadership of the country, to freely sing in worship, and to see many people put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ." (CBN) Read More Here

US Says Will Recognize New Syrian Regime If It Renounces Terror, Supports Women
|
|
The Biden administration said Tuesday it will recognize and support a new Syrian government that renounces terrorism, destroys chemical weapons stocks and protects the rights of minorities and women.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement that the US would work with groups in Syria and regional partners to ensure that the transition from President Bashar Assad’s deposed government runs smoothly. He was not specific about which groups the US would work with, but the State Department has not ruled out talks with the main Syrian rebel group despite its designation as a terrorist organization.
The qualified pledge of support for a post-Assad Syria comes as the Biden administration continues to look to target Islamic State fighters to prevent the group from reemerging as an international threat and maintains support for Israel as its forces conduct their own operations inside Syria.

- Mighty God, King of the Universe, we stand in awe of what You have done for Your people, for Your nation Israel! We praise You for the strategy, the timing, the military personnel and equipment involved in these operations, and the wisdom, power and protection from on high. You have indeed created a clean slate in Syria to protect and defend Your Land. Of course, the Sunni regime is furious with Israel for destroying their ships, fighters, weapons caches, chemical and bio-weapons. However, we ask that You make this work for good in the relationship between Syria and Israel in the days ahead. We pray that the world would see that the God of Israel lives and keeps His promises! Especially, we ask that You give Iran eyes to see what You are doing, Lord, and pull back. We declare Your perfect timing, only, for all developments in the Middle East.

Israel Just Sank the Entire Syrian Navy, Crippled the Air Force
|
|
While radical Sunni militants were conquering Damascus, Israel was conducting an absolutely massive bombing campaign inside Syria that is unlike anything we have seen before. The IDF is telling us that more than 350 targets were hit.
Basically the goal was to destroy as much military hardware as possible so that it would not fall into the hands of the militants. The Israelis were concerned that the militants might use the military hardware that they inherited against them, and so they took pre-emptive action.
Unfortunately, the militants are now steaming mad, and some of them are already publicly threatening Israel.Syria never had a large navy to begin with, but now it has been completely neutralized.According to the BBC, Israeli naval forces "struck the ports at Al-Bayda and Latakia on Monday night."

Iran’s strategy now appears increasingly unsustainable
|
|
The Iranian axis — spanning Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Gaza — has long relied on its proxies to project power and destabilize its enemies. But this strategy, stretched thin over the past decade, now appears increasingly unsustainable. Hezbollah, Iran’s crown jewel in the region, has faced immense strain, its resources drained by years of involvement in Syria and its credibility eroded by Lebanon’s economic collapse.
In Syria, Iran’s efforts to entrench itself suffered repeated blows, with Israeli airstrikes targeting weapons depots and infrastructure vital to its operations. Russian forces — once a stabilizing partner for Iran in the region — redeployed resources to Ukraine, allowing Syrian rebels to topple Assad.
The weakening of Iran’s influence has coincided with the rise of a new regional alignment, spearheaded by the Abraham Accords. Signed in 2020, these agreements between Israel and several Arab states — including the UAE, Bahrain and Morocco — have laid the foundation for an unprecedented era of cooperation. In the wake of the October 7 attacks, this cooperation has been tested and endured.
The Gulf states are increasingly prioritizing economic development, regional stability, and countering Iranian aggression over solidarity with Palestinians. The reasons for this shift are both pragmatic and ideological. Arab leaders see little benefit in continuing to align with a Palestinian cause dominated by groups like Hamas, whose violence undermines their own security and economic interests. Moreover, they view Israel not as an existential threat but as a partner capable of addressing shared challenges, from water scarcity to renewable energy. (The Spectator) Read more here.

- Father God, we thank You that, even though the leaders of Iran continue to brag about their own power, in reality, the opposite is true. Please grant our own leaders and others in the Western World keen discernment, based upon the facts, that in reality the nation of Iran is a howling dog, without the ability to endanger our world. Thank You, O Lord, for hearing our prayer, and thank You for protecting our brothers and sisters in Christ who are living in Iran. Amen.

1. Netanyahu to Iranians: 'All the money your oppressors wasted on terror went up in smoke' - Israel National News
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu published a video message on Thursday addressing the people of Iran following the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria.
"As we see history unfold before our very eyes, I can only imagine what you're feeling right now. Your oppressors spent over 30 billion dollars supporting Assad in Syria. Today, after only 11 days of fighting, his regime collapsed into the dust," Netanyahu opened.
"You're oppressors spent billions supporting Hamas in Gaza. Today, their regime lies in ruins. Your oppressors spent over 20 billion dollars supporting Hezbollah in Lebanon. In a matter of weeks, most of Hezbollah's leaders, its rockets, and thousands of its terrorists went up in smoke. It's the money you're oppressors stole from you that truly went up in smoke," he continued. (Read more)

2. IDF sees chance for strikes on Iran nuke sites after knocking out Syria air defenses -Times of Israel
The Israel Defense Forces believes that following the weakening of Iranian proxy groups in the Middle East and the dramatic fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria, there is an opportunity to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, military officials said Thursday.
The Israeli Air Force has therefore continued to increase its readiness and preparations for such potential strikes in Iran.
The IDF also believes that Iran — isolated after the fall of the Assad regime and the weakening of its main proxy group Hezbollah in Lebanon — may push ahead further with its nuclear program and develop a bomb as it scrambles to replace its deterrence.

3. ‘Moral failure,’ Israeli mission in New York says of votes in United Nations - JNS
The U.N. General Assembly voted almost unanimously on Wednesday to support two non-binding resolutions, one that demands that Israel end its war against the Hamas terror group in the Gaza Strip and the other allowing the U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) to continue to operate in the Jewish state.
UNRWA “has failed the people of Gaza and has been infiltrated by Hamas terrorists,” Jonathan Harounoff, international spokesman for Israel’s mission to the United Nations in New York, told JNS. “The ceasefire vote was another moral failure. The resolution failed to make an immediate and permanent ceasefire contingent on the release of all 100 hostages.”
Arsen Ostrovsky, a human-rights lawyer and CEO of the International Legal Forum, told JNS that “countries which voted in favor of this resolution, or cowardly abstained, only abandoned the hostages and rewarded the murderers, rapists and abductors of Hamas.” (Read more)

4. UN Sends New Troops to IDF’s Buffer Zone in Syria, Demanding Israeli Withdrawal - Jewish Press
The United Nations has dispatched reinforcements to Syria following the Israeli military incursion across a decades-old ceasefire line, which in turn had been triggered by the abrupt collapse of the Syrian government to an Islamist-led rebel coalition, Newsweek reported Wednesday, citing a UN diplomat familiar with the matter.
The United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) was established in the wake of the 1973 Yom Kippur War to monitor the ceasefire between Israel and Syria. Created by United Nations Security Council Resolution 350 on May 31, 1974, the mission’s mandate includes enforcing Resolution 338 (1973), which demanded an immediate ceasefire and called for the implementation of Resolution 242, aimed at securing peace in the Middle East.
Before the Syrian Civil War, the ceasefire line between Israel and Syria remained largely quiet, with few significant incidents. However, as the war intensified, clashes in Quneitra spilled into the UN-monitored buffer zone separating Israeli and Syrian forces. Growing security concerns prompted several countries contributing troops to the UNDOF to reconsider their involvement, leading to withdrawals and a subsequent reorganization of the peacekeeping mission.

5. Israel prepares to strike Houthi targets in Yemen - Israel Hayom
The IAF remains uncertain whether three or four unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were launched by the Houthis toward Israel on Thursday morning. What is clear, however, is that the Houthis have increased their attempts to challenge Israel in recent days. One UAV was intercepted near Eilat, another was downed using soft defenses, and a third disappeared from radar and has yet to be located.
According to IDF assessments, the escalation of Houthi attacks is partly due to significant blows sustained by the "Axis of Evil." The Houthis are attempting to exploit this weakness to assume a leading role in attacks against Israel. Israeli officials acknowledge that the situation cannot continue and are preparing for the possibility of a third significant strike against Houthi targets in Yemen.
In Syria, The IDF continues to analyze the results of its strikes on Syrian armed forces. Current estimates indicate that 58-88% of Syria's air defense systems were critically damaged. The IDF maintains the search for any remaining systems that may reappear.
While IDF briefings have suggested that around 80% of Assad's military has been damaged, senior officers caution that this figure is overly ambitious and advise more conservative estimates. According to their analysis, the overall damage to Syria's military capabilities is lower, as intelligence does not cover every weapon system. The IDF prioritized striking Syria's strategic assets rather than less critical targets. (Read more)

1. Days After Trump’s Victory, Biden-Harris Admin Granted Iran 10 Billion in Sanctions Relief, Congressional Notice Shows – Free Beacon
The Biden-Harris administration waived sanctions on Iran three days after the November election, providing Tehran access upward of $10 billion in once-frozen funds, according to a copy of the non-public order transmitted to Congress and reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken determined on November 8 that "it is in the national security interest of the United States"; to waive mandatory economic sanctions that bar Iraq from transferring upward of $10 billion to Iran in electricity import payments.
The Biden-Harris administration has renewed the waiver repeatedly over the objections of congressional Republicans, who warned that the cash helped fuel terrorism and Iran's war against Israel. In one case, the administration signed off on the sanctions relief one month after Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel.
The most recent iteration of the waiver lifts sanctions for 120 days, at which time the incoming Trump administration will have to decide whether Tehran will continue receiving the relief. (Read more)

- Dear Lord, we are disappointed and saddened to hear that the current administration has favored Iran with easy cash to do what they have been doing all along: funding terror in other nations, especially Israel. We pray that this unwise move will backfire on those who plan evil and that You will somehow direct how it is spent. We bind up the use of this money to buy weapons and ammunition and say that it will only, with the Lord's help, reach the needy of the country, especially the Christians, who are so poorly treated. Thank You for the new administration coming into office in January who will be much wiser and understand the evil intentions of Iran and bring peace to this troubled country that troubles other countries. In Your name, Lord, we offer this prayer, amen.
- "When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him." (Proverbs 16:7)

2. New Jersey Mystery Drones May be Iranian, Congressman Says – JNS
The Pentagon does not assess that the drones are foreign in origin, a spokeswoman said at the Defense Department’s press briefing. Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) wrote a letter to U.S. President Joe Biden on Wednesday suggesting that recent sightings of unidentified drones over the Garden State may be the work of Iran. The New Jersey congressman demanded that the president impose flight restrictions over the state and “neutralize” any drone that violates those restrictions, given the “circumstantial evidence that Iran” is responsible.
“We have information that a sea-based Iranian drone mothership is currently missing from port, and that its embarkation timeline would align with the appearances of the New Jersey drones,” Van Drew wrote. “While I remain open to alternate explanations, I have not been presented a single credible, cohesive narrative except for that Iran is controlling these drones from offshore.”
Van Drew, who switched parties and became a Republican in 2020, repeated the claim in an interview on Wednesday with Fox News and said that his information came from confidential “high sources.” “These drones should be shot down,” he said. “Whether it was some crazy hobbyist that we can’t imagine or whether it is Iran, and I think it very possibly could be, they should be shot down.” (Read more)
|
|
- Father God, how disturbing is this, that the mystery of the origin and purpose of the drones is still unknown. We ask You to uncover that which is hidden from our view and bring forth confirmation of what is really going on in the skies over New Jersey. Lord, where there is danger, send Your protection, and where there is harmful involvement from an enemy country, we ask that You shut it down Yourself, especially when our defense officials are either holding back knowledge or else do not know themselves. Father, protect us from unwise decisions made by those in office now and bring Your kind of wisdom to our leadership next year.

3. America’s Middle Class in 2024: Aging Vehicles, $300 Carts of Groceries, and Mountains of Credit Card Debt - The Economic Collapse Blog
Have things been getting better for the middle class, or have things been getting worse?
Needless to say, the answer to that question is obvious. The cost of living is absolutely crushing us, we can’t afford to replace our rapidly aging vehicles, debt levels are exploding, and the proportion of the country that is living paycheck to paycheck has been steadily rising. Our economy is a mess, and America’s middle class is getting smaller and smaller.
Sometimes I feel like I am watching a very tragic version of musical chairs. If you are still holding on to your chair, you should be very thankful, because more people are slipping out of the middle class and into poverty with each passing day. If you are old enough, you can still remember a time when many middle class families would purchase a new vehicle every few years.
Sadly, today most of us are being forced to get as much mileage out of our rapidly aging vehicles as we possibly can. As a result, the average age of the passenger vehicles traveling America’s roads has reached an all-time record high. Even keeping our aging vehicles repaired has become exceedingly difficult. These days, if the mechanic hands you a repair bill for less than a thousand dollars that is a reason to celebrate. In the old days, you could get a really nice used vehicle for a thousand dollars.

- Dear Lord, we hold onto Your strong hand during times like these, Oh Lord! We repent for any unwise use of the money You have provided for us and pray that all of Your people will remember to tithe and give to the poor, especially during this season. We know Your plans for us are to prosper us and give us health, and we look to You and honor You for that by faith. Thank You that You are now taking us on a new journey of faith and drawing us closer to You in all matters.

4. House Passes Annual Defense Bill With Hundreds of Millions for Israel – JNS
The U.S. House of Representatives passed the $895 billion annual defense bill on Wednesday with hundreds of millions of dollars for Israel.
Formally titled the “Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025,” the legislation includes $500 million for U.S.-Israel missile-defense cooperation, $47.5 million for U.S.-Israel cooperation on emerging technologies and $80 million for the U.S.-Israeli anti-tunneling initiative.
It also includes a provision that would bar the U.S. Department of Defense from citing casualty statistics from the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health. (Read more)

These children need our protection. Please see to it that this bill will be passed in the Senate also. We praise you for your wisdom and mercy, and pray you will lead us into glorifying you first, and you will lead our country into prosperity and peace. We want to be your light in this dark world. We pray these things in Jesus' mighty name, amen and amen.

5. Video Games Have Become Rife with DEI And Some Fans Aren’t Buying it – The Epoch Times
The video game industry has changed in recent years, with transgenderism and
diversity messaging becoming more commonplace.
BioWare, developer of the wildly popular Mass Effect and Dragon Age video game series, is at the center of a new battle. Following the failed launch of two costly triple-A titles, the studio was banking on a win. Its latest offering is the fourth title in the Dragon Age series; the last was released 10 years ago.
Initial reactions to trailers for Dragon Age: The Veilguard were decidedly negative. Longtime fans of the series criticized the softer, stylized art of the new game, comparing it to a Disney-Pixar movie.
But after BioWare invited a group of streamers and critics to a private, hands-on demo of the game, hope was rekindled. Those who had experienced Veilguard firsthand were generally positive, and encouraged fans of the series to wait for the full release.
Days before its release, clips of Veilguard were leaked, revealing that the game was rife with transgender ideology and messaging based on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). One scene showed a character doing pushups as penance for forgetting to use “they/them” pronouns, and then lecturing about how a simple apology was not enough for the crime of “misgendering.” (Read more)

- Abba Father, we ask You to protect our innocent young children, tweens, teens, and young adults who spend hours each day gaming. Give each individual a sword and a shield to deflect the non-binary, non-Christian, and demonic themes that are embedded in these games. These levels of intrusion are tailored to the mental taste buds of our children. Some of these games are full of messaging that will make these children accept the lies of the devil. Guide our society to weed out the adults who are creating this harmful content. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, amen and amen.

6. The Miserable Cost of an Open Border – Discern Report
The Biden-Harris experiment in dissolving the U.S. border has wrought massive changes to American society, most of which will not be understood for years, if not decades. Since 2021, U.S. border officials have had at least 10 million “encounters” with migrants, many of whom were allowed to enter the country. There is no telling how many more aliens entered the country without encountering enforcement agents. The population of the United States may have increased by as much as 15 million people in just a few years.
This massive flow of humanity crosses multiple national borders, involves every mode of transportation, accounts for billions of dollars paid in fees to smugglers, and describes a fantastically complex economy of suffering and hope. In an effort to get a handle on this human tide, noted muckraker James O’Keefe – known for his hidden camera “gotcha” interviews with abortionists, media executives, progressive nonprofit executives, and other degenerate types – traces the migrant onrush from its source, and seeks to trace the machinery of profit and influence that is conducting it from great removes.
“Line In The Sand,” the resulting documentary, is a remarkable and humane exposition, revealing perspectives and images American audiences have mostly been prevented from seeing. O’Keefe and his intrepid team begin on the U.S. side of the Mexican border, where we witness migrants crossing the border through holes that their guides have cut in a fence that serves as a target as much as a barrier. (Read more)
|
|
- Father God, thank you for James O’Keefe. His movie, "Line in the Sand," shows us clearly that this massive flow of illegal immigrants will affect our land forever. While we understand why these illegals came here, we can’t understand why our government let them in. There are no criminal checks, but instead these immigrants are given free room and board, healthcare, food, supplies, and cell phones, meeting their every need. Meanwhile, O Lord, our own veterans are left hopeless, helpless and living on our streets with no help in sight.
This is insane and our current Administration is to blame. Lord, please help us to deal with this horrifying betrayal by our own government. We pray that You will expose all the drug cartels and expose those people that are making money from their schemes. We don’t want anyone to suffer in this demonic plan. Lord, please take charge of this situation and help us to confront the evil among us. Send Godly men and women to be leaders in this area of our government. Hopefully the new administration will take control of the chaos at our borders. Thank you that you are in control and that you care about America. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, amen and amen!
- "When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evil doers." (Proverbs 21:15)

A Fauci Pardon And The Democrat Death Cult
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, December 12, 2024
Joe Biden may be pressured to pardon former Centers for Disease Control head Anthony Fauci because Fauci, the Biden Administration and the Democratic Party leadership were complicit in the deaths of 1.2 million Americans during the COVID “pandemic.” This, a common sense conclusion drawn from findings of the House Select Committee on COVID 19’s extensive report on COVID learnings which pointed to taxpayer-funded gain of function of the COVID 19 virus, the fast track approval of a “vaccination” that neither prevented infection nor transmission of the disease, and the gaslighting of Americans into taking a serum that is ultimately harmful to long-term health.
The committee stated in its 500-page report that “A lab-related incident involving gain-of-function research is most likely the origin of COVID-19… EcoHealth — under the leadership of Dr. Peter Daszak — used U.S. taxpayer dollars to facilitate dangerous gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China…NIH’s procedures for funding and overseeing potentially dangerous research are deficient, unreliable, and pose a serious threat to both public health and national security.” Further, NIH fostered an environment that promoted evading federal record keeping laws…” As all these points were reported, there were attempts to censor and discredit them as misinformation by the government and its media partners.

How Should Israel Deal With Iran Going Forward?
|
|
|
Under the Biden regime, Israel was restrained from taking out Iran’s nuclear facilities. After Trump takes office in January, will Israel take out Iran’s nuclear sites? Al McCarn states that Israel needs to go through a fundamental change in their thinking as the Trump team comes in. Israel should no longer be thinking that they are a “client state” under the control of the US, as they were treated under the Biden regime. Instead, they should now be thinking, deciding, and behaving as an independent sovereign state because this is how the incoming Trump team sees them and will treat them. He shares keen insights on big changes coming soon in Iran and how Israel might help facilitate. We close in prayer!

Dick Van Dyke escapes Malibu wildfire as he ‘crawls’ to his car, 3 neighbors ‘saved him’

'Mary Poppins' star turns 99 on Dec 13
|
|
Dick Van Dyke was forced to evacuate his home due to the raging wildfires in Malibu, California.
The legendary actor, who turns 99 on Dec. 13, shared how he struggled to get to safety while his life and home were at risk from the wildfires.
Van Dyke attempted to unsnarl his fire hose outside when neighbors showed up to assist him. He said that he could see the wildfires blazing over the hills from his home.
"It was coming over the hill. You [could] see it," he told TODAY of the fire. "I was trying to crawl to the car. I had exhausted myself. I couldn’t get up. And three neighbors came and carried me out… came back and put out a little fire in the guest house… saved me."
In the background of the video, a voice added that Van Dyke was "soaking wet" when he tried to escape.
Security cameras surrounding Van Dyke’s home showed him evacuating with his wife Arlene and their pets.
Van Dyke’s update comes after he shared with concerned fans on Facebook that he "safely evacuated."
"Arlene and I have safely evacuated with our animals except for Bobo escaped as we were leaving," he wrote. "We’re praying he’ll be ok and that our community in Serra Retreat will survive these terrible fires." Read More
