Editorial note: As this unfolds and more details are made known, pray for a wave of freedom to sweep Venezuela, Iran and other countries that currently are in ruled by dictators and regimes.

From Breitbart: U.S. President Donald Trump announced Saturday morning that Venezuela’s socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores have been “captured and flown out of the country”, a message that came after a series of explosions hit Caracas.

“The United States of America has successfully carried out a large scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country. This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement,” President Trump said in a Truth Social statement. He added that further details would follow at a press conference to be hosted later today at Mar-a-Lago.

President Trump’s bulletin comes hours after a series of apparent airstrikes hit several locations across the capital city of Caracas and other regions of Venezuela.

U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a copy of Trump’s Truth Social post on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

Maduro, who has maintained himself in power through a series of sham presidential elections, is actively wanted by U.S. authorities on multiple narco-terrorism charges. The U.S. has an active $50 million bounty on information leading to Nicolás Maduro’s arrest and/or conviction. . . .

U.S. courts accused Maduro in 2020 of being a leading figure, if not the leader of, the Cartel of the Suns, an international cocaine trafficking operation led by top members of the Venezuelan regime that for years sought to “flood” the United States with cocaine to harm its people.

Epoch Times reports, “President Donald Trump said on Jan. 3 that Secretary of State Marco Rubio has spoken with Venezuela’s Vice President Delcy Rodriguez, who he said agreed to cooperate with Washington as the United States moves to oversee the country’s political transition following President Nicolas Maduro’s capture.

Trump told a press briefing in Washington that Rodriguez, who he said was sworn in as president after the U.S. operation, held a lengthy conversation with Rubio and indicated she would comply with U.S. demands.”

He changes times and seasons;
he removes kings and sets up kings;
he gives wisdom to
the wise and knowledge
to those who have understanding; Daniel 2:21 ESV

Why it fits: Daniel reminds us that God is the ultimate orchestrator of political shifts, deposing unjust rulers and installing new ones. In light of recent events, this underscores prayer for divine wisdom in the transition.

God,
Thank you for Proverbs 15:3 that tells us that the eyes of the Lord are everywhere,
keeping watch on the wicked and the good , meaning God you are omnipresent, observing all people and actions, both righteous and wicked, reinforcing your constant awareness and ultimate judgment or favor.. I pray this scripture over the U.S. Strikes Venezuela. Bring Justice Lord.
I pray, President Trump will seek guidance from all counterparts who may have to be involved in any decision making in moving forward. This should look like its coming from an united front of our lawmakers in Jesus Name

Praying now for a God ordained president over Venezuela, one in whom the Venezuelan people know to be good and who will do the will of the Lord there. May our God and King bless them in every way as they navigate this and as they elect a Godly president. In Jesus Name, Amen.

whack-a-mole. a situation in which problems arise faster than one is able to cope with, resulting in piecemeal, incomplete, or temporary results.

“Second front: How a socialist cell in the US mobilized pro-Maduro foot soldiers within 12 hours” foxnews.com

Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu, (Avenu), Melech ha’olam. Traditional Hebrew Blessing (I add)
“Blessed are You Lord our God, (our Father) King of the Universe.”

Your indignation left no part of me intact; my sin made my whole body sick; for my iniquities loom high over my head as a heavy burden, too heavy for me. Psalm 38:4-5

What the Messiah has freed us for is freedom! Therefore, stand firm, and don’t let yourselves be tied up again to a yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1

Dear Father, You are Almighty God. You are King of the Universe to all who have yielded their lives to You, all who (one day) will and even all the ones who refuse to. You see everything clearly and in truth. Please LORD, continue to expose the evil surrounding the good. Please LORD, continue to reveal the bitter embedded with the sweet and for each person complicit in the corruption of Your good, I pray You will overwhelm them in guilt until they yield their lives to You. LORD, You set us all free so please continue to support us. Support us so we can REJECT the enemy’s yoke of slavery. I pray in the Mighty Name of Christ, for freedom to abound in the US, in Israel, Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Iran, Ukraine, Russia, China…..You know all needs LORD! I am praying to the Glory of God for what is best for His people. Amen
