During our overnight last night (Friday night) it was daytime in Iran. Iran’s weekends are Thursday and Friday, so Saturday would’ve been a regular workday, like our Monday. However, since it’s a national holiday – Ramadan – the workday would’ve still been in process, but with a bit of a reduced workforce in place. The U.S. and Israel had planned an attack on Iran for tonight since months and years of negotiations between the U.S. and Iran had failed so many times, it had become clear that no amount of time would ever solve the impasse: The U.S. insisted that Iran give up any goal of ever having nuclear weapons, and Iran would not do it. They stalled and stalled and stalled – all-the-while continuing to enrich uranium to weapons-grade; getting ever-so-close to having a nuclear bomb. At the same time, the extra time they were wasting was increasing the risks to the entire region as they continued to develop their ballistic missile arsenal. (**Update as of 3/3/2026: President Trump’s Special Envoy, Steve Witkoff, has now publicly stated that the Iranian negotiators came to the table and proudly announced that they now had enough enriched plutonium for 11 nuclear bombs. Knowing the one “Red Line” the president had was that they could not have ONE nuclear bomb, this was how the Iranians opened up the discussions.)
President Trump, having warned them 10 days ago that they had 10 more days to “make a deal” had agreed with Israel it was time. But, as I said, the plan was to attack tonight. And then something remarkable happened. Israeli intelligence picked up that the top Iranian leaders including the Ayatollah, were about to meet, providing the United States and Israel with an opportunity no one saw coming: the opportunity to take out several of the psychopathic regime’s leaders at one time. Suddenly, “Operation Epic Fury” had to be moved up in time. And it was.
(Update as of 3/3/2026: It was the U.S. CIA that obtained the intelligence that several top Iranian officials were meeting together Saturday, providing the chance of a generation to wipe many of them out all at once – we provided that intel to the Israelis and that is exactly what happened. And then, once again, the next rung of leaders – having lost the Ayotollah, his daughter, son-in-law and other family members and officials – the next tier of leaders met all together yesterday to elect a new Ayatollah, and we bombed them and killed them all, too. Now reports are that 49 Iranian officials have been killed.)

Here is much of the reaction online, minus the reaction of the democrats, who I couldn’t care less about listening to:
I was a freshman at LSU in 1979 when disgusting subhumans attacked American sovereign soil in Tehran, overwhelming a handful of our Marines, seizing our embassy and taking American hostages. We’ve been looking forward to today for 47 years. The perfect alignment of leaders at… pic.twitter.com/fMPXADoaNd
"Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead. This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei…" – President Donald J. Trump pic.twitter.com/oXZTFGg5pS
This has been our day. All day—sirens & we do the “shelter shuffle”. But there is something worse than dodging Iranian missiles & that is having Iran scream “Death to America” for 47 years. @realDonaldTrump is saying “Enough!” I’m proud of our @POTUS! pic.twitter.com/BkdBLzyrle
They hung kids for tweets. They cut women’s eyes out for wearing makeup. They threw gay folks off of buildings. They murdered Americans. Who will grieve for this dirtbag? pic.twitter.com/jO6bct5fLj
Toronto (Feb. 28) — Iranian dissidents gather to chant, “Thank you, thank you, USA & Israel” in the first day of war on Iran’s regime. The protest contrasts heavily with Canadian liberals & leftists who spread anti-American hate. Video by @BethBaisch: pic.twitter.com/Sf354oKwza

We Christians have a lot to pray about these days. A lot.
#1) The first thing I’d like to propose for your daily prayer list is to pray for the United States to be returned to a Christian nation, and that there will be a massive light that will go off above our land so the people will see the Truth about Jesus Christ – that He is real, that He died for each of us, and people need to realize that to rebel against Him is to commit eternal suicide.
2 Corinthians 10:5 – We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
#2) Pray for President Trump’s protection and safety (and by extension, his family and cabinet members and their families). Pray that righteous people will rise up in our government; that the people can see the truth about our government and know that they must not only accept Christ, but also denounce and defund the anti-Christ political party, the democrats. If it is to be the Republican party that God continues to use to save the country, then, Lord Jesus, please allow smart, wise, moral Christian candidates to grow in stature and popularity, and please give Republicans a great majority next year in the mid-term elections. We pray against all corruption and dishonesty in our government.
***Thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving President Trump’s life, more than once, and please continue to keep him safe. In order to save the country, please also preserve and protect the President’s orders and directives so that his effectiveness can be maximized.
#3) Another thing we each need to be praying for, in light of today’s events* is for the Lord to cause the policies of the Trump administration to go forward without impediment, and that all the mountains and obstacles put up against them would all be knocked down.
***Lord, today America’s enemies use activist judges; tomorrow, who knows? Whatever tool they use to obstruct Your will from going forward, Lord Jesus, cause it to be completely powerless and futile. Let no weapon forged against the United States of America, prosper:
Isaiah 54:17– no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me,” declares the Lord.
*Today, Thursday, June 12th, a federal judge ordered President Trump to release Palestinian, Anti-Semitic activist, Mahmoud Khalil. He is 30 years old and leads a group of activists on the Columbia University campus (he isn’t even a student there), which broke into the university president’s office and started a fire, and this group has harassed and terrified Jewish students there. And so, the Trump administration wishes to revoke his work visa, which they have every right to do: (https://www.courthousenews.com/judge-orders-trump-to-release-palestinian-activist-mahmoud-khalil/).
*Also today, another federal judge ordered President Trump to release command of the Californian National Guard – taking them out of his control and giving command of them to California Governor Gavin Newsom, effective Friday at 12 noon. This – removing command of the NATIONAL Guard from the President of the country – is illegal.
But they don’t care! They are lawless and in rebellion against God.
***Lord Jesus, today I pray that the judge who ordered the Trump administration to release Mahmoud Khalil gets reversed on appeal, and that the anti-Semitic activist, Mahmoud Khalil, will get deported. Forever. We also pray that command of the California National Guard is restored to President Trump Friday morning. Lord Jesus, we appeal to the highest court – Your Court in heaven – that these activist judges get reined in. SCOTUS will have to do this, Lord – and so we pray for this to happen, and quickly. In the meantime, let nothing impede the Trump administration from taking action to restore this country to You and to the people, and undo the damage caused by the wickedness of the democrats. Remove all of their power, Lord.
***Lord Jesus, please lower every mountain and raise every valley to make all of President Trump’s crooked paths straight toward effective and popular policies, including the removal of the 15-20 million Illegal Aliens that the democrats brought in, including horrible criminals, in an effort to create a new constituency for themselves and radically change the United States into a nation that serves their master – the devil. We cannot let this happen, Lord, so please help us prevent this. Use us. Guide us. Stir up the spirit of the people to support President Trump and the Republicans and quash the rebellious acts of the enemies within. Thank You, Lord.
Destroy the Evening Wolves, Lord Jesus.

Enough is enough of this nonsense.
In this Scripture, for the present time in America, I believe “she” is the Democrat Party and the woke left, who are in all-out rebellion against the country and the Lord:
Zephaniah 3:2-4,17-20
2 She obeys no one, she accepts no correction. She does not trust in the Lord, she does not draw near to her God. 3 Her officials within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves, who leave nothing for the morning. 4 Her prophets are unprincipled; they are treacherous people. Her priests profane the sanctuary and do violence to the law.
But for Christ:
17 The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
18 “I will remove from you all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals , which is a burden and reproach for you. 19 At that time I will deal with all who oppressed you. I will rescue the lame; I will gather the exiles. I will give them praise and honor in every land where they have suffered shame. 20 At that time I will gather you; at that time I will bring you home. I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes before your very eyes,”
(emphasis mine)

Today a federal judge ordered the Trump Administration to pull back the National Guard from California and hand their command to Gavin Newsom:
Pay attention to what this order says in addition to the words Breyer used today during the hearing.
He repeatedly suggested Trump was acting as a "king" or as head of a "monarchy."

This is another one of those orders by Democrat activist judges that is so lawless and dangerous to our national security that the President of the United States, as commander-in-chief, has the constitutional duty to ignore it. https://t.co/X0zbtLFfdH
#4) We need to pray daily for protection and safety for Israel and the U.S. – and all our “ships at sea” (meaning: all of our military personnel, diplomatic staff, etc. – all Americans in the Middle East) – to be protected from potential retaliatory attacks from Iran, in light of the fact that Israel is striking Iran tonight. They are too close to obtaining and launching a nuclear weapon with the development of 12-15 warheads (allegedly), and Israel knew it’s window of opportunity was closing. Yesterday all American staff were ordered out of Iraq, with reports that the risk of attack by Iran was high. President Trump has called an emergency National Security Council meeting tomorrow morning at 11:00 a.m.
He (President Trump) is in the Oval Office tonight, and it will be a long night for him, undoubtedly:

Israel is currently striking Iran’s capital, Tehran.
*It’s worth noting, that although the United States is saying we aren’t involved in these attacks, exactly 61 days ago, President Trump gave the Iranians 60 days to come to the table to reach a diplomatic solution.

There are a lot of Christians in Iran, with the church growing there more than anywhere in the world over the last ten years. I know this first hand, because I was an online missionary for 7 years and received emails from people in Iran with questions about the Bible, and ministered to them constantly. So many made a first time decision for Christ to me, over those years, I lost count.
If you search the question: How many Christians are there in Iran today?, the Wiki-AI answer is this: “There are approximately 300,000 to 370,000 Christians living in Iran, with some estimates suggesting that the number of Christian converts from Islam could be between 800,000 and 3 million.”
According to news reports tonight, Israel is being so specific with these attacks – they are being launched with pinpoint accuracy. The IDF bombed apartments – singularly – and killed the IRGC leader, the Nuclear Science doctor who was the leader of the Iranian Nuclear Program, and other strategic Iranian military leaders. People are awed by Israel’s ability to strike and hit only the targeted individuals, without hitting the people next door. Since there has been such a conversion of Christians there in recent years, I am grateful for these pinpoint attacks because we don’t want people who live there, and don’t want to live under such an oppressive regime, to be collateral damage.
***We pray that the people of Iran would be set free of this evil regime; that wisdom for Israel and the United States abounds; and that no other country – not Russia or China – props up this evil, corrupt, self-enriching and oppressive Iranian government. They need to fall completely and the people there set free. Also, Lord Jesus, we pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Keep Israel and America, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and all of the Middle East, safe. Protect, Lord.
#5) Pray that the democrats fall into the pits they dig for their enemies and that all of their chaos-inducing antics backfire on them. Today this grandstanding One-Dog-Pony-Soldier- some Senator from California – rushed through the doors at a Press Conference and charged Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem. Since he was wrestled to the ground by security, the dems are now screaming “Victim!”, “Authoritarian!!”, etc. They are the party of satan, and I think it’s perfectly appropriate to pray that they continue to fail, and that the damage they cause is not just limited, but completely reversed by our Original Founder and Savior – Jesus Christ. MACA – Make America Christian Again!
He can barely say his name correctly. He’s dressed like a janitor. No official identification. There was no way any cop/security officer believed he was a U.S. Senator.
In the Cold Civil War we are in here in our country, there are evil forces, such as the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that are funding much of the sowing of chaos in our country and they are obviously using the democrat party. The democrat party has become the party of Satan and the party of Communism, and they CANNOT have control of our government – ever again – or this country will be destroyed. Please,
***Lord Jesus, see to it that the democrat party is completely wiped out in America as the Holy Spirit sweeps across this land. Please save America from all of her (and Your) enemies. Thank You for all You’ve done to create and continuously save America. Amen.
#6) The people have had enough of the wild and insane democrats. They really have, and we need to pray that the Cold Civil War we’re in doesn’t turn hot (even though I believe the Lord has shown me that it will). 20 million veterans are FED UP, that I can tell you for sure.
***Lord, please bring peace to our land. But if we have to fight in order to make that happen, let us do so with only Your guidance and direction (and protection). If our Cold Civil War becomes hot, Lord Jesus, we pray for the protection of the innocent and righteous people, and success for us as well. In Jesus’ Name.
OMG.
