As European nations prepare to sanction Iran over its noncompliance with President Obama’s nuclear deal, Russia is stepping in to protect the Islamic nation.
Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.
From Breitbart:
Russia’s First Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Dmitry Polyanski, confirmed at a press conference on Tuesday that Russia is circulating a draft proposal at the U.N. to block sanctions against Iran.
“Russia and China want to give more breathing space for diplomacy and provide some possibilities for an active quest for a diplomatic solution to this issue,” Polyanski said.
“The choice of the international community should be in favor of peace and diplomacy, not in favor of war — and that is what our draft is about,” he said, strongly implying that anyone in favor of punishing Iran for noncompliance is attempting to start a war with the Islamic Republic.
Breitbart reports that France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, collectively known as the “E3,” are pushing for snapback sanctions against Iran. This comes after the International Atomic Energy Agency in June declared Iran “to be in breach of its obligations under not just the JCPOA, but also the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).”
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, more commonly referred to as the JCPOA, is President Obama’s controversial 2015 nuclear deal. The deal is set to expire on October 18 of this year. It’s expiration will trigger sanctions against Iran — unless Russia’s draft proposal goes through.
The fact that China is also apparently working with Russia to block sanctions is concerning. This is yet another way in which America’s enemies are growing closer together, strengthening their new axis of evil. And of course, it’s a bad sign for the United States.
Let’s pray that God would sever all ungodly alliances between America’s enemies, and let’s pray that Iran would be held accountable for its flagrant disregard for international nuclear standards and agreements.

Lord Jesus, may Your will be done in this mess.
Does anyone else find it interesting that the opposition to Godly commentary and intercession has nothing of merit to say and tries to simply detract by throwing ads into the mix. I can keep reporting as long as you keep posting, so you might want to quit wasting your time and ours. Ads are not welcome on this site.
More strange bedfellows!! What a hypocritical statement from either Russia or China – “The choice of the international community should be in favor of peace and diplomacy, not in favor of war — and that is what our draft is about.” Russia is continuing to war against Ukraine, and China and Iran not only threaten other nations, but war against their own people. Psalm 2 comes to mind –
Psalm 2 – “Why are the nations in an uproar, the peoples grumbling in vain?
The earth’s kings are taking positions, leaders conspiring together, against YHVH and his anointed.
They cry, “Let’s break their fetters! Let’s throw off their chains!”
He who sits in heaven laughs; YHVH looks at them in derision.
Then in his anger he rebukes them, terrifies them in his fury.
“I myself have installed my king on Tziyon, my holy mountain.”
“I will proclaim the decree: YHVH said to me, ‘You are my son; today I became your father.
Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance; the whole wide world will be your possession.
You will break them with an iron rod, shatter them like a clay pot.’ ”
Therefore, kings, be wise; be warned, you judges of the earth.
Serve YHVH with fear; rejoice, but with trembling.
Kiss the son [or: Kiss purely], lest he be angry, and you perish along the way, when suddenly his anger blazes. How blessed are all who take refuge in him.
Judge these evil regimes, Lord, and bring them into alignment with the prophetic destinies You have declared over them in Your Holy Word. May the peoples of Iran, China and Russia be presented with Your gracious offer of salvation through repentance and faith in the atoning sacrifice of Yeshua and in choosing the Kingdom of God – shake their nations!!
My comment is that the endtime prophecies of the Bible are rapidly unfolding,
