Iran Could Pivot to Cyber Warfare
America’s victory over Iran was a miracle. In one swift attack, our military reportedly crippled the Islamic nation’s nuclear facilities, preventing it from obtaining nuclear weaponry.

However, as The Daily Wire pointed out in a recent article, our leaders shouldn’t forget about the other weapons at Iran’s disposal, especially those that are more digital:
Even as diplomats trumpet the ceasefire, cybersecurity professionals are aware of the dangers that still exist. In 2025, a nation doesn’t need fissile material to cripple its adversaries, it only needs a cadre of skilled operators, a menu of stolen exploits, and a willingness to play dirty in the world’s most critical networks.
Iran’s embrace of cyber operations is hardly a new development. In a 2012 cyberattack U.S. intelligence attributed to Iran, the Shamoon virus wiped tens of thousands of computers inside Saudi Aramco, a major Saudi Arabian oil company, reducing corporate IT to smoking rubble — digitally speaking. Since then, Tehran’s capabilities have matured steadily.
Today, Iran’s cyber forces are well-trained and highly motivated. And given the loss of their nuclear infrastructure, they now possess ample incentive to reassert influence through other means. Cyber warfare is attractive precisely because it offers an asymmetrical advantage: the power to disrupt, humiliate, and retaliate without risking a direct military clash.
Iran may have lost the potential for nuclear weaponry, but that doesn’t mean it’s down for the count. The nation could still attack Israel or the United States digitally and, as The Daily Wire pointed out, it has “ample incentive” to do so.
It’s important to note that Iran is not the only nation to be sharpening it’s digital fangs. China and Russia have also been training their cyber forces. With so many of America’s adversaries targeting our cybersecurity, it’s important that we stay vigilant.
Amid these cyber threats, it’s important that we pray. Let’s pray for our leaders as they seek to navigate this new digital threat!

Father, we ask that You have our leader navigate these digital threats, in Jesus’s name, amen.
Lord we pray for our leaders to have wisdom against these attacks. Give them your strategies so that they can counterattack all these foreign ideologies that have invaded our country for so long.
Also we pray that the people will wake up and turn their hearts to you so that blindness will be taken off their eyes .
In the Name of Jesus under the authority we have through Jesus Christ we cancel all cyberattacks and harm from Iran, Russia and China and other countries.
Thank you Lord in Jesus Name we pray.
Jer 49:38-39 I will put my throne in `Eilam and destroy their king and leaders,’ says YHVH. But in the acharit-hayamim, I will bring back the exiles of `Eilam,’ says YHVH.”
Eilam is modern-day Iran, ancient Persia. Since part of Your declared judgement of Eilam includes the promise that You will destroy their king and leaders (the current evil regime), and You will put Your throne there (Your righteous rule), then I am confident that in Your perfect timing and way You will bring down this evil regime. I agree with Joel Rosenberg that it will result in freely coming and going, resulting in the release of the Gospel in an unprecedented flow from that nation. We eagerly anticipate that, Lord!
Until then, please protect us from any cyber attacks this regime may be planning – may their evil plans boomerang against them – may they fall into any pits they have dug to ensnare their ‘enemies’. You are Sovereign and Almighty God, and have authority over the prince of the power of the air. We trust You to wage war in the heavenlies on behalf of those who love and serve You. Cyber space belongs to YOU.
Amen and amen!!!
