Today is Tuesday, July 28th, Here’s what we know:

  Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the first day of World War III. It began in a way I was not expecting, but if I had opened my eyes earlier to this tragedy, I would have seen that it began in 1979. Fifty-two American hostages were held at an embassy in the middle of Tehran for 444 days. This was the opening move by the Islamic Republic of Iran, led by a despotic leader, Ayatollah Khomeini. He was the ringleader in this kidnapping and tried to play it off as though he had no control, when in fact he had total control. Iran has tried to bully us since the Carter administration, and they lost their entire navy in two hours during the Reagan administration. After that, they supplied terrorist organizations inside the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and are responsible for the murder and dismemberment of thousands of people around the world. However, their favorite target would be the good old United States, or as they refer to us, “The Great Satan.”Back to the ugly here and now, Iran is on the verge of becoming a pothole in the earth. The United States has hit them with everything short of nuclear ICBMs, but the bunker-buster ordnance is hitting places Iran thought impenetrable, and the explosions that are seen resemble the sickening mushroom cloud of nuclear devastation. God forbid it goes that far. Speaking of the Father, He has plans for Iran, or Persia, as mentioned in the Bible. Ezekiel 38 & 39 mentions the nation of Persia, which is the former name of this nation. Get in your Bible, child of God or interested observer; test me on this issue, and I’ll be happy to explain it to you. Lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths.
