Donald Trump on New Team, Victory: 'Thank You God'
|
|
The final tally of the presidential election is in with Nevada and Arizona being called for Donald Trump over the weekend, giving him victories in all seven battleground states. His total victory of 312 votes in the Electoral College is more than he won in 2016. Trump posted on Truth Social, “THANK YOU GOD! WON ALL SWING STATES, & THE POPULAR VOTE BY ALMOST 7 MILLION VOTERS…”
Democrats are fighting over who’s to blame for their decisive defeat. Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi told the New York Times that if President Biden had relinquished his candidacy sooner, more candidates might have jumped in to create an open primary. Others, like California Rep. Ro Khanna, say the Harris team failed to address the concerns of everyday Americans. “Anyone who’s saying now this was not a winnable campaign, didn’t say that back in August,” he said. “The reason we didn’t win ultimately, is that we didn’t listen enough to people on the ground… people who were saying talk about the economy, talk about people’s economic struggles. Convince people you have the better policies and better vision.” (Charisma News) Read More Here
- Lord, we shout HALLELUJAH for Your mercy and compassion upon America! We lift praise for Your miraculous Hand in Trump's victory through him winning ALL swing states and earning the popular vote!! We know this amazing favor on President elect-Donald J. Trump comes from You alone and we declare Your continual protection over him, so no harm shall ever come upon him or his family! We intercede for individuals being chosen to be on his cabinet and for those in Congress who will work alongside President Trump to restore Your righteousness within our government and upon our Land. All GLORY to You, Abba! In the powerful Name of Jesus Christ- Amen and Amen.
- "Moreover, look for able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens." (Exodus 18:21)

Rabbi Tuly Weisz Hails Trump's Dream Team Appointments as Ushering in Golden Era for Israel-US Relations
|
|
In his first week since being declared the winner of the 2024 presidential election, President-elect Donald Trump has wasted no time in assembling his foreign policy team – a move that has Jewish leaders like Rabbi Tuly Weisz, founder of Israel365, overjoyed about the future of US-Israel relations.
Among Trump’s high-profile appointments are Elise Stefanik as UN Ambassador, Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, and perhaps most significantly, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as the next US Ambassador to Israel.
In an interview with ILTV, Rabbi Weisz, founder of Israel365, described Trump’s picks as a “dream team” that will usher in a new era of unwavering support for the Jewish state.
“It’s only been a week and every day we wake up to better and better news,” Weisz said. “He’s putting together a dream team, and the policy is going to change from night to day – from bad to good. We’re going to see great things, especially when it comes to handling the situation in Israel.” Read more |
|
- Father God, we are so blessed to receive this word of blessing from Rabbi Tuly Weisz. As we now gaze upon the future of U.S. - Israeli relations, we thank You, dear Lord, that You have set in place men of strong leadership qualities on both sides of the ocean. We give You all the praise, Holy One, in Your name, amen and amen.
- "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." (I Thessalonians 5: 16,17,18)

Huckabee Ready to Support Annexation of West Bank as Trump's Ambassador
|
|
Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. ambassador to Israel, has expressed his readiness to support the annexation of the West Bank.
In an interview with Galei Tsahal on Wednesday, Huckabee discussed his vision for the territories and the implications of his appointment.
“This is an extraordinary day, and I’m honored that the president wants to give me this role,” Huckabee said, reflecting on his decades-long relationship with Israel, which began nearly 52 years ago. “It’s an extraordinary opportunity to represent my country in a land that I first fell in love with.”
When asked about the potential for annexation under the Trump administration, Huckabee emphasized his frequent visits to the West Bank, reiterating his belief in Israel’s right to a secure state. “I believe that the citizens of Israel deserve a secure state, and anything I can do to help achieve that goal will be a tremendous privilege,” he stated. However, he acknowledged that while he can influence outcomes, he does not set policy, as that responsibility ultimately lies with the president. Read more |
|
- Abba, we give You high praise for Your son Donald's decision to appoint Gov Mike Huckabee as US Ambassador to Israel, a man who truly has a heart for Your people and land. We ask for a new level of unity between the US and Israel, we ask for Your perfect will to be done as decisions are made concerning Israel's strategic plans focusing on Iran, Hezbollah and Gaza. Father God, You know what steps need to be taken and those that don't, we ask for Holy Spirit to speak that wisdom to all ionvolved, bringing an end to war in Your land. We ask this in the name Jehovah Sabaoth, The Host of Heaven't Armies.
- "The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,
and their tongues speak what is just."
(Psalm 37:30)

Your Complete Guide to Trump's Jewish Advisors and Pro-Israel Cabinet
|
|
President-elect Donald Trump began shaping his cabinet this week, rolling out nominations that feature people deeply connected to the Jewish and pro-Israel communities, including Mike Huckabee, Steve Witkoff, and Marco Rubio.
His first national security picks are die-hard Israel supporters, some of whom have denied the existence of the Palestinian people and back the annexation of the occupied West Bank. These loyalists are set to advance his “America First” and hardline populist agenda in a second term. They could signal some shifts in longstanding U.S. policy, especially regarding a possible conflict with Iran and resolving conflicts in the Middle East.
Here’s a running guide to the key players and candidates in Trump’s incoming cabinet and advisory circles related to Jewish and Israel issues.
Marco Rubio, Secretary of State
Why Trump picked Rubio: Rubio, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has vast national security experience and strong connections to secure a swift Senate confirmation.
What he’s said on Israel: Rubio, 53, has echoed Trump’s “peace through strength” doctrine and call to allow Israel to do what’s needed to defeat Hamas. In a viral video earlier this year, Rubio said he expected Israel “to destroy every element of Hamas.” Rubio likened the Israeli ground operation in Rafah, which was opposed by the Biden administration, to the Allies’ pursuit of Adolf Hitler during the Holocaust. Read more |
|
- Abba, we give You praise for all the men and women President-Elect Trump has picked for various positions in his Cabinet and government. Father God, there were so many who were praying, not just for the election, but for decisions that would have to be made following the election, we thank You that You heard our prayers. Father God, we ask that each one of these people be Your person for the job, that You will give them everything they need to be successful and to carry out Your intentions for them. Jesus, we ask Your protection over Your son, Donald, and each one of these chosen to serve, we ask for wisdom, knowledge, and hearts to understand Your plans and purposes for our nation. We ask this in the name Jehovah Jireh, The Lord Will Provide.
- "For I know the plans I have for You," declares
the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not
to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
(Jeremiah 29:11)

1. Dermer talks Hezbollah truce amid pressure in Israel to keep fighting - JNS
Israel’s Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer met with President-elect Trump during a visit to his Florida estate on Sunday, The Washington Post reported on Wednesday.
Sunday’s discussions at Mar-a-Lago centered on an Israeli ceasefire in Lebanon that involves Western and Russian cooperation, according to the Post. Dermer secretly visited Russia last week for follow-up discussions, after Russian officials visited Israel on Oct. 27 to discuss the plan.
The proposal calls for Moscow to prevent Hezbollah from resupplying via Syrian land routes.
According to Israeli officials, other details of the plan include moving the Hezbollah terrorist group north of the Litani River. The Lebanese military would then take control of the border area for a period of 60 days, overseen by the United States and Britain. (Read more)

2. US hands Lebanon draft proposal for ceasefire with Israel, sources say - Jerusalem Post
US ambassador to Lebanon Lisa Johnson submitted a draft truce proposal to Lebanon's speaker of parliament Nabih Berri on Thursday, as part of an intense push to end the IDF-Hezbollah war, two political sources told Reuters, without revealing details.
There is agreement on certain elements of a deal, but also sharp disagreements over Israel’s security demand, that the IDF would retain the ability to strike at Hezbollah if necessary to prevent it from rearming.
Lebanese officials say that "direct enforcement" by Israel has not been formally floated to Lebanon, but that it would be rejected by Beirut. (Read more)

3. IAEA chief: Iran’s nuclear sites ‘should not be attacked’ - JNS
International Atomic Energy Agency Director Rafael Grossi cautioned on Thursday against striking Iran’s nuclear sites, after Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz suggested they may be targeted.
“I say this with regards to Iran …, nuclear installations should not be attacked,” Grossi said during a news conference in Tehran, according to AFP.
Katz said on Monday that Iran was “more exposed than ever to strikes on its nuclear facilities. We have the opportunity to achieve our most important goal—to thwart and eliminate the existential threat to the State of Israel.” (Read more)

4. Coalition leaders condemn 'coup for all intents and purposes' against Netanyahu - Israel National News
The leaders of the coalition parties published an unusual message of support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this evening (Thursday) after declarations that Netanyahu is "unfit" by members of the Opposition.
"We, the leaders of the coalition parties, reject outright any attempt to declare the Prime Minister unfit to serve, even for a limited period of time. Any such declaration lacks a legal basis and is therefore invalid. Such a move would constitute a coup for all intents and purposes," the party leaders wrote.
They added, "At this time, the Prime Minister must continue to be at the head of the security and political campaign. We view this as a national interest. We stand and will stand in defense of democracy. Only the people, through their elected representatives in the Knesset, will determine who will lead them and who will serve as Prime Minister."
The statement was signed by all the heads of the coalition parties, including the new Foreign Minister, Gideon Sa'ar. The Likud representative who signed the letter is Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Minister Yariv Levin. (Read more)

5. Pro-Hamas Rioters Take Dam Square Again, 281 Detained, Only 15 Stay in Jail - Jewish Press
281 Pro-Hamas rioters were arrested overnight Thursday after defying an emergency order banning demonstrations and rioting in Dam Square, next to the Oost red-lights district in Amsterdam’s old city. According to reports in the Netherlands, the rioters were put on police buses and driven away from the city center. About 15 of the hundreds of protesters remained in custody, suspected of possessing objects likely to disrupt public order or cause injury, insulting a police officer, vandalism, and disobeying a police officer’s order.
All protests and rallies have been banned in the city under an emergency order following attacks on Israeli and Jewish soccer fans in Amsterdam last week. Supporters of Maccabi Tel Aviv were accused of provoking Arab fans through vandalism and offensive remarks; however, officials stated this was “no excuse” for the excessive violence that ensued after the Israeli club’s match against Ajax on Thursday. Approximately 35 people were injured, around 70 were arrested, and additional rioting occurred in the days that followed. Also, many commentators noted that the attack had been prepared well before the first visiting Maccabi fan ripped a Palestinian flag off a storefront.
Since last week’s clashes, officers in the Dutch capital, armed with expanded stop-and-search powers, have detained or removed hundreds of demonstrators under emergency measures in effect until Thursday. When the demonstration started on Thursday, Police in riot gear surrounded the group, detaining them and escorting them onto buses. (Read more)

1. Elon Musk’s Bold Plans for Department of Government Efficiency Face Roadblocks – The Hill
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are set to take the reins of the brand new “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) under President-elect Trump — a panel with bold ambitions of slashing government costs and restructuring federal agencies.
However, it is likely to face numerous roadblocks in its efforts to effect change in the next
administration given its seemingly advisory role, experts said. “There’s the executive branch that might be in their way. The Congress might be in their way. The Constitution is a bit of an obstacle,” said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, president of American Action Forum. “Other than that, clear sailing,” he told The Hill.
Trump announced Tuesday evening that the pair of tech entrepreneurs would jointly lead
the panel, which will “provide advice and guidance from outside of Government.” (Read more)

- Father God, we pray that You would empower this team with the wisdom to do exactly what it was formed for--to cut waste and duplication in our government. Give them sensitivity as to how to approach their task so that their suggestions are heeded and implemented in a way that brings real change to our bloated government. In the name of Jesus we come against all strongholds that are holding back our leaders from operating efficiently with our money. Protect these two men as they go about their new job from all the expected criticism and hostility.
- "Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful." (I Corinthians 4:2)

2. Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan’s Message for Blustering IL Governor Pritzger’s Posturing on Immigration Policy: “Game on. We’ve got no problem going through him” – The Gateway Pundit
President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for “border czar,” Tom Homan, is uninterested in Illinois Governor JB Pritzker’s whiny bluster.
Pritzker recently puffed his ample chest out to pledge to keep Illinois a sanctuary for undocumented immigrants and hinting that his administration will continue to put illegals ahead of citizens.
Pritzker said, “If you come for my people, you come through me.” Homan joined Charlie Kirk and clapped back at Pritzker’s disastrous approach and bluster. Homan replied simply, “Game on. We’ve got no problem going through him.”
“I’ve got 20,000 men and women in ICE who are going to do their job with no apology. Congress has enacted a law that protects this country. People need to understand… entering this country illegally is a crime.” “Every illegal alien in this country committed a crime to get here. So they’re all criminals.”
“And look, there’s some worse than others, I get that. And even if they’re not a criminal alien, when you cross that border and you overwhelm the border patrol… that’s when the fentanyl comes across to kill a quarter-million people. That’s when you have a 600% increase in sex trafficking. That’s when you have a record number of terrorists crossing the border. Illegal immigration is not a victimless crime.” (Read more)
|
|
|
- Oh Lord, we rejoice at the refreshing boldness with which Mr. Homan answered the critics of the proposed policy of the incoming administration. We pray that the men and women of this agency are encouraged and heartened by this positive attitude toward carrying out the law as written and not ignoring it as it has been in the outgoing administration. Lord, we pray that You would cause resistance to all just laws to fall before this agency so that the rule of law can again reign in our country and the spirit of lawlessness will lose its foothold in our national life. Bless You, for this, Lord.
- "I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart." (Psalms 40:8)

3. What to Know About Tulsi Gabbard: From Bernie Back to Trump Intel Nominee – The Hill
Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination to become President-elect Trump’s national intelligence director opens a new chapter in a whirlwind national political career that largely launched alongside the progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
After a decorated military career and four terms representing Hawaii in the House, Gabbard sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, running on a progressive platform and railing against U.S. involvement in foreign wars. Two years later, she announced she was leaving the Democratic Party, and then in August of this year she endorsed Trump for president.
Gabbard praised Trump at the time for “having the courage to meet with adversaries, dictators, allies and partners alike in the pursuit of peace, seeing war as a last resort” and condemned the Biden administration for the U.S. “facing multiple wars on multiple fronts in regions around the world and closer to the brink of nuclear war than we ever have been before.” (Read more)

- Dear Lord, You are the one who turns the hearts of kings and You are fully able to guide the heart of this nominee for high office. As she will be responsible for so much sensitive and guarded information, we pray that You will keep a close eye on her to keep her in the path that our President-Elect has chosen for her. We pray that she will seek Your wisdom in all that pertains to our country and that she will come to know You in close and personal ways she has never imagined before. Lord, may our country's intelligence information be safer than ever as You guide her in this new job. Amen.
- "Wisdom is the principle thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding." (Proverbs 4:7)

4. Consumers are Drowning in Debt as Hordes of Businesses Fail All Over the US – The Economic Collapse Blog
U.S. consumers have piled up the largest mountain of household debt in the history of the world. If the federal government was not almost 36 trillion dollars in debt, the fact that U.S. households are nearly 18 trillion dollars in debt would be making a lot more headlines. Sadly, our entire society is absolutely saturated with debt at this point. Government debt on all levels is spiraling out of control, corporate debt has ballooned to absurd levels, and consumers have been gorging on debt as if there will never be any consequences. Unfortunately, a time of reckoning has arrived, and it is going to be incredibly painful.
On Wednesday, we learned that total credit card debt has surged to a brand new record high of 1.17 trillion dollars.
Collectively, Americans now owe a record $1.17 trillion on their credit cards, according to a new report on household debt from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Credit card balances rose by $24 billion in the third quarter of 2024 and are 8.1% higher than a year ago.
Needless to say, incomes have not increased by 8.1 percent over the past year. (Read more)

- Faithful Father, consumers in America are in debt now more than ever. With prices rising, and paycheck staying the same, Americans have had to rely on credit cards to get through this inflation. Please help us dig our way out of our financial mess. We need your help. We love you and praise you, in Jesus' name, amen and amen.

5. Has the Biden-Harris Administration Set a Recession Trap for Trump? - Prophecy Newswatch
Overheating the economy with a massive increase in government spending, disguising employment with public sector jobs, and soaring federal debt. The foundation of Neokeynesian economics always rests on the idea that an economy must prioritize government spending, leading to full blown socialism.
When the economy is growing, government spending rises because, allegedly, it is time to borrow and grow. When the economy overheats and enters the inevitable recession, government spending must rise again because it needs to support growth. See? The size of government in the economy increases both during and after a recession. Taxes constantly rise, but debt rises faster. Upside-down economics.
The Biden-Harris administration has followed exactly the policies of the Greek, Spanish, and French socialists into an election year prior to their countries' crises. The strategy involves inflating the GDP through excessive government spending, creating an uncontrollable deficit during a period of economic recovery, and masking employment through government jobs financed by increased debt. In the process, the printing of money results in the highest inflation in decades.
Why would a government do this?
Firstly, it serves to present inflated headline GDP and employment figures.
Secondly, they can attempt to attribute inflation to supermarkets, corporations, and anyone else besides the government, which prints currency without any control. (Read more)
|
|
- Lord God, Please help us with our collapsing economy. The Biden administration has been criminally negligent, both with our spending and fake job numbers. It’s going to take a miracle to bring us back. Please intervene with your help to make America strong again. We believe in you and trust you will grant our leaders wisdom and knowledge to accomplish this victory. We pray in the mighty name of Jesus, amen and amen.
- "Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said , “ I will never leave you nor for sake you.” (Hebrew 13:5)

6. How Many Christian Churches Became Actively Opposed to God’s Chosen People – Prophecy Newswatch
The theological drift in mainline Protestant denominations began as early as the late 19th century, influenced by European theological liberalism. During this period, some theologians began challenging the inerrancy of Scripture, often arguing that the Bible should be read metaphorically rather than literally.
This trend had far-reaching effects on Christian teachings about Israel and the Jewish people. The literal promises made to Israel in the Old Testament were increasingly interpreted as either outdated or metaphorical, applying instead to the Church--a view often called "replacement theology."
This perspective suggests that the Church has taken the place of Israel in God's plan, negating God's promises to Israel regarding land and nationhood. Replacement theology has often accompanied a diminished sense of obligation toward Jewish people, casting them as incidental or even irrelevant in modern theological frameworks. Some denominations may not openly preach replacement theology, yet their teachings indirectly reflect this perspective by emphasizing the universality of God's promises while downplaying Israel's central role.

- Holy God, we see you as the head of our church. We trust you to lead us into all truth. We believe you love your chosen people, and also the Gentiles. Please open the eyes to all churches and leadership, that we owe it to Israel to pray for them and help them as our most trusted ally. God bless Israel and God bless the USA, in Jesus' mighty name we pray, amen and amen!
- "And I will put my spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I am the Lord; I have spoken , and I will do it, declares the Lord." (Ezekiel 37:14)

Anger, Accountability, And The Word Of God
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, November 14, 2024
Celebrities, politicians, news media and many people in American society are having a serious meltdown after Donald Trump’s presidential win. They are boiling over with fear and anger and are telling those who voted for Trump they are racists, bigots, fascists and worse. Some are threatening to leave the country. Others are encouraging women to withhold sex if their men voted Trump. Still others are demanding that family members isolate themselves from loved ones who voted for Trump. Even many who call themselves Christians have distanced themselves from family members who voted for Trump. This is the result of over a decade of media bombardment fomenting hate toward anything Trump. What gives?
The 24/7 news and entertainment cycle filled with extreme leftist talking heads has become a superhighway for fomenting anger. Many have written and said they have family members who are ballistic over the election. Herein, we as followers of Christ have a responsibility to respond appropriately. Christ has called us to overcome evil with good; to be the light of the world. We cannot do this if we return anger for anger. These poor undiscerning people have allowed the voices of disinformation and hate to skew their understanding and comprehension of the world, even their own loved ones. Maybe they were fearful or angry to begin with over something that they perceived were injustices that occurred to them. The negativity has fed their fear and anger. It’s not an excuse for their behavior, but perhaps, an explanation. Read More

The president-elect is confirming Cabinet members a week after winning the 2024 presidential election.

Here’s who Trump has selected for his Cabinet so far, with most pending Senate confirmation next year:
Matt Gaetz, US Attorney General
Trump picked Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) as his nominee for U.S. attorney general, pending Senate confirmation.
“Matt is a deeply gifted and tenacious attorney, trained at the William & Mary College of Law, who has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice,” Trump wrote in a statement on Truth Social.
“Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations, and restore Americans’ badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department.” (The Epoch Times) Read more

Historic Leonid Meteor Shower to Peak
in Weekend Sky
|
|
|
The Leonid meteor shower has previously erupted into spectacular meteor storms, but stargazers should temper their expectations as it peaks on Saturday night.
Most people have heard of meteor showers, when a few dozen shooting stars may dash across the night sky when the conditions are right. However, the next meteor shower on the calendar has a rich history of producing epic meteor storms that sound like science fiction rather than reality.
Leonid meteor storms
The annual Leonid meteor shower is responsible for some of the most staggering celestial spectacles in modern history. The mid-November event usually produces around 15 to 20 shooting stars per hour during its height, but this pales in comparison to its full potential.
Outbursts are rare, with the most impressive shows being documented in 1833, 1866 and 1966.
"Rates were as high as thousands of meteors per minute during a 15-minute span on the morning of November 17, 1966. That night, Leonid meteors did, briefly, fall like rain," EarthSky explained on its website. Read More
