I Prayed have prayed
God, we pray for Your truth to cut through all the lies and deception surrounding this conflict in the Middle East. We pray for a swift end to the fighting, and we pray for peace in Jerusalem!
Reading Time: 2 minutes

As conflict in the Middle East continues, many have been questioning the White House’s narrative, asserting that strikes on Iran were not necessary. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sought to put these criticisms to rest, informing doubters that Iran’s nuclear program was on the brink of becoming untouchable.

From The Times of Israel:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said early Tuesday that an attack against Iran was urgently necessary because Iran was building new underground sites to shield its missile and nuclear programs from attacks. …

In an interview with Fox News, Netanyahu said, “The reason that we had to act now is because after we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missile program [in June 2025]… they started building new sites… underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program and their atomic bomb program immune within months.”

“If no action was taken now, no action could be taken in the future,” he said.

In other words, our leaders had no choice but to act now. U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff echoed this sentiment, claiming that Iran’s top negotiators boasted earlier this year that they had enough enriched uranium to build 11 nuclear bombs.

Netanyahu also laughed off the idea that Israel dragged the U.S. into war, a claim many have been making in light of a quote from Secretary of State Marco Rubio made earlier this week. The Prime Minister called President Trump “the strongest leader in the world,” stressing that he only “does what he thinks is right for America” and “what he thinks is right for future generations.”

Furthermore, Netanyahu addressed fears that the U.S. is entering into another Middle East forever war. He claimed the war won’t last forever because “this terror regime in Iran is at its weakest point” since it’s founding, stressing that the conflict will be a “quick and decisive action.” Vice President JD Vance echoed this sentiment in his own Fox interview, insisting that Operation Epic Fury won’t drag on for years because the U.S. has a clear goal. According to the Vice President, the goal of this conflict is to change Iran’s “mindset” so that it will agree to never pursue a nuclear weapon.

You can view Netanyahu’s Fox interview in the embedded player below.

As this conflict continues, it seems that more and more people are using it as an excuse to turn on both Israel and the President. Let’s ask God to cut through the deception and unite people behind our leaders and behind God’s chosen nation in the Middle East!

It will be resolved as rapidly as President Trump can obediently continue to respond to the Lord’s leading.. and dems do not interfere
When has there not been outrageous and slanderous gossip, lies, & distortions in the story from the lazy self indulgent population who wants us to always ..”feel good all the time”, who also refuses to acknowledge evil in life.
Thank The Lord in heaven for the raising up of President Trump for such a time as this

Almighty God,
YOU alone know the future, based on the choices YOU allow your people to make here on earth. Since we are only little dust people, my best prayer is to pray Your best for Israel, Jerusalem, all Middle East countries and the United States of America. I have prayed before Your Throne so I trust Your best to happen. Thank you for guiding President Trump with Your Wisdom. I thank You in advance for ending this action for Peace quickly. Thank-You Papa for listening and answering. How Great Thou Art!

I praise God to be seeing the most powerful Military Alliance in History defeating the most evil Regime since the Nazis. Iran’s Regime protected Assad in Syria as he killed over 600,000 people and made 6-7 Million homeless. They have killed and murdered people in Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, USA, Saudi, Yemen, and partnered with Venezuela to poison hundreds of thousands of Americans with drugs. They have murdered tens of thousands of precious youngsters in Iran who only want to live and have a family. Thank You Almighty God for your Righteous Judgement and that You will do your own Will irregardless of what men think or want.

Iran tried to kill or they hired men to kill President Trump. They have killed a reported 400,000 people, mostly Christians. They have vowed to destroy Israel and the USA. That is all they have lived for, dreamed of and their goal in life. We had to do this and it was God’s perfect timing.
God protect the persecuted church in Iran, protect Israel and protect the USA

Lord Jesus, I pray for a decisive and total victory in this war with Iran .I pray for the peace and safety of Jerusalem and that Israel will continue to triumph over her enemies, specifically Iran. I pray that, that this conflict will end quickly, and that our troop losses will remain minimal. Mostly, it is my prayer for Your will to be done. Thank you Jesus.

Why are people supporting this statement by Shlomo? “Zionists posing as lovers of Christ”-?? This sounds like an outright accusation against Jewish people. Like what we’re hearing out of protesters here in America, such as Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and all of their ilk.
People!! Start realizing what you’re hearing out of these people, especially Tucker and Marjorie and shame on Megyn for supporting these people and excusing Candace Owens. Don’t give them the ratings on YouTube! I have been onto this for quite some time now I’m glad that the president has also said the same and in a recent ABC interview. It is like the 30’s and 40’s all over again-it is extremely scary. I pray that they change. I never would’ve thought I’d be saying things like this about these people back when the elections were going on in 2024 but here we are-wake up everyone and get your eyes open. I’m glad to see the president has, and I hope people like Turning Point get away from these people as they should be.
If anyone is ignorant of what I’m talking about know that Tucker Carlson isn’t what he may have seemed to be in the past. He has had with welcoming arms and praise anti-holocaust historians several times on his show and now with his outright statements that have been getting increasingly loud and angry, with the latest angry tirade that he did over the war against the president along with Megyn and Marjorie Taylor Greene on Megyn’s podcast, I think most people are starting (I would think) to get onto him.

Please, if I am wrong about your statement clarify, but this does not look good what you’ve just written. And we really don’t need it site on this if that was your intent. And right after an article like this!

    I want to be clear-I myself am saying it’s getting like 30’s and 40’s-with some people’s beliefs-not the president. It may have read like that was a quote from him, but he has spoken out against Tucker in a recent interview saying that he’s known about him for quite some time which I’m glad to hear.

    And to correct my typo above: “and we really don’t need it on a site like this..”

    Seeing everyone who pressed “Amen” has me concerned that people are not getting it when they read things or see things. Last time I’ll say it… everyone better wake up.

      Please, pray without ceasing. Trying to change people’s mind is not beneficial. We are all in need of a Savior, and do not have the knowledge or wisdom we think we have. Just pray!

        Gail when I see things that look very troubling, I call it out. Like at least one other person did here thankfully. We are called to do that. Certainly on a site/article like this. And I am in much prayer always.

        There’s nothing wrong with calling out things that do not line up with Christian beliefs. This is a Christian website and therefore, when seeing some people agree with something that looks anti-Israel, I must take a stand. Ultimately, only God can open people’s eyes-I know that all I can do is inform what I know and have seen.

      Thank you Liz. I agree with Gail that only continuous prayer will change peoples minds and I do pray much about that, but seeing so many people look like they agree with the one comment I felt I had to speak up-and now yet another new concerning one from a woman since I last wrote… but I’ll just leave my comments as they stand and hopefully have informed some people concerning those in the media/government who may have fooled people in the past. Or just didn’t know. Very sad and shameful. And VERY concerning.

    I am in total agreement with what you wrote. It is quite disturbing to see the division happening with those who claim to believe in Christ. This may be the separating of the wheat from the chaff. One must always make sure one’s stance lines up with Scripture and turn away from those who say otherwise. We must also continue to pray for those who have been mislead and are continuing to mislead others who believe every word they say.

Isaiah 46:10-13

10 I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’
11 From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that I will bring about; what I have planned, that I will do.
12 Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, you who are now far from my righteousness.
13 I am bringing my righteousness near, it is not far away; and my salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion, my splendor to Israel. God will bless Israel at the Expense of the Islamic regime of Iran which is the bird of prey as you see on its present flag.

As of February 28 2026 God’s word has been fulfilled to take down this demonic regime which the Lord himself spoke thousands of years ago.
A Message About Elam
34 This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, early in the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah:
35 This is what the LORD Almighty says: “See, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.
36 I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven; I will scatter them to the four winds, and there will not be a nation where Elam’s exiles do not go.
37 I will shatter Elam before their foes, before those who want to kill them; I will bring disaster on them, even my fierce anger,” declares the LORD. “I will pursue them with the sword until I have made an end of them.
38 I will set my throne in Elam and destroy her king and officials,” declares the LORD.
39 “Yet I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come,” declares the LORD.
NO DOUBT the lies against Israel cannot stand because the Lord God Jehovah Emet is true and everyone else are liars.

Today, as the United States and Israel carry out operations against Iran’s tyranny, they deserve recognition and support. These are the only countries standing between the world and a state that has terrorized its citizens and the global community for nearly half a century.
Lord, please protect the United States military and the Israeli military, covering them with Your blood, as they fight this spiritual battle. Give them boldness, courage, strength, and Your wisdom and knowledge as they move forward to fight this battle. And give Your people eyes to see and ears to hear the truth behind this spiritual battle.

Mr Netanyahu has been warning about Iran having nuclear weapons for literally decades. The situation is far less clear than many understand. God is undertaking Psalm 2 in real time which is marvelous but Dispensationalism has damaged the Gospel and deluded many. No Christian who understands the Epistle to the Hebrews could possibly support the construction of another Temple in Jerusalem. My prayer is that God would raise another Cyrus in Iran.

You appear to be against Yeshua’s Inheritance Land and how He is MOVING! Since 10/7/2023, we (One New Man Body of Christ–for we are called to pray for Israel (Ps 122) have been fighting the Psalm 83 war and YHWH HIMSELF is actively fulfilling a 3rd PURIM REPETITION with DIVINE REVERSALS as per Jer. 39:34-39 while also working on Zech. 9. HE is actively SWINGING HIS PLUMBLINE of JUSTICE and RIGHTEOUSNESS of Isaiah 28+Psalm 99+Psalm 96!
God is “going to remove the blood from between the teeth of the Gazans” and they will be given the chance to join YHWH and be a part of Judah. That land does NOT belong to the Gazans it belong to YHWH and He says it is a part of Israel and within the Judah portion. This is HIS PLAN and the “earth is HIS and the fullness thereof”.(Ps 24)
Israel MUST take back as much of the UNI-LATERAL EVERLASTING ABRAHAMIC COVENANTAL LAND because He has 700 Promises that there will be restoration and 64 ALIYAH PROMISES that He Who exiled them will REGATHER them as it shows His SOVEREIGNTY. Ezekiel 37 is a 2 step process: first they are regathered (bones joining together) and THEN the RUACH-The Holy Spirit will enter them. The largest rising Jewish Harvest ever is now seeking and FINDING YESHUA (Jer. 29:11-14). This is GLORIOUS–the other side of the Cultivated Olive Tree is growing and returning! (ROmans 9-11) They need the Land God PROMISED so they must arise like Numb.23-23-24. Christians are NOT called to spew political narratives, Anti-Semitism or Replacement Theology which opposes SCRIPTURE. This is an age of great deception but we are called to SPEAK HIS IMMUTABLE WORD and KNOW HIS TEMPLATES–to love Israel (Our King’s Inheritance), and love and pray for every Jewish person to come to Messiah and for Christians to KNOW HIS WORD (Gen.1:1-Rev.22:21) so well that it provokes “the Jewish person to jealousy”(Romans 9-11:11). Israel must protect itself for the Jewish people are no longer safe in the nations–and that will only bring JUDGMENT (Zech 12:2-3, Joel 3) we are graciously grafted in to the New Covenant which has 3 aspects: Jer.31:31-34, Ezk.36:22-31, Isaiah 59:20-21. Our KING is RETURNING to ZION so as Christians we are called to be pro Israel and love-not hate the Jewish people–for they will be family when they come to faith!
Focus on YHWH and what He is DOING and not on political narratives.

Yes, I will keep praying for America’s and Israel’s military forces, and all leaders associated with this conflict! May they have wisdom and discernment in their decisions with this conflict.
Also, praying that God will give victory over this terrorist regime just as He did when America and Israel became nations as well as all other wars. Father God, please put a hedge of protection around
Israel as they are surrounded by other countries who do not know you!
Just as when Moses led the people from Egypt, Exodus 14:13 “Do not be afraid. Stand Firm and you will see
the deliverance the lord will bring you today.”
