October 28, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – Iran Will Respond to Israel’s Response to Iran etc…etc…

Scripture: Jeremiah 17:14 “Heal me oh Lord and I shall be healed. Save me and I shall be saved for You are my praise.” 

Ephesians 1: 3,” Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ” . Psalm 150: 6, “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord, praise the Lord.”

Tom says after Israel’s retaliation it first appeared to not be that significant until reports came out. Tom says now its clear it was brilliant and God’s hand was upon it.

In the attacks to Iran Israel involved over 100 aircrafts. They first attacked air defense batteries in Syria and Iraq before going to Tehran. They said Israel’s planes were not detected. In a second wave Israel bombed Iran’s ballistic missile production facility. It has crippled Iran’s missile production, disabled air defenses. Also said the defense systems of oil refineries were destroyed. They say the regime is alarmed. Iran seems panicked and threatening.

Israel says it rendered critical energy defenses and left them vulnerable to future attacks by destroying air defense batteries that protect them. They say the strikes reflected capabilities developed over 2 decades that showed the ability for Israel to strike into Iran. Says this also restricts Iran’s abilities to fire missiles into Israel. 

Amir said according to reports more than over 20 were killed during that time in Iran. 

Israel is expecting a counter attack from Iran. 

The chief of Iran’s IRGC warns Israel of bitter unimaginable consequences. Iran warns it will use all tools to respond. 

Iran’s president says its not looking for war but obligated to respond appropriately. Iran is downplaying the strikes.

IDF chief said Israel restrained itself in the attack. Says they have the ability to do much more. 

Supreme leader of Iran, Khamenei said the Zionist regime made a miscalculation and must be taken into account. Says they must understand the strength and desire and initiative of Iran’s nation and the youth of the country. 

Khamenei is 85 and they say is in serious and terminal illness and looking for a replacement. 

On Saturday was a serious terrorist attack in Israel north of Tel Aviv. Up to 50 were wounded, many serious when a large truck rammed into a crowded bus stop. Many victims were trapped under the truck. 

Amir says they say Hamas still continues to refuse hostage deals. Refuses the offer of safe passage for Hamas men in exchange for Israeli hostages.

Reports Hezbollah is falling apart. Israel’s ground operatives have sparked mass desertions as Hezbollah terrorists flee to Syria ignoring orders and leaving posts in chaos. 

Netanyahu’s cabinet will no longer meet at a set time or place due to security concerns.

Hezbollah strongholds are being attacked in the city of Tyre. 

Putin warns the West of a direct war with Nato if it allows Ukraine to use long range weapons against Russia. Putin has been warning since September after Britain and the US let Ukraine use long range weapons against Russian targets warning this would put Nato at war with Moscow. 

A.I. news: a man in Utah contacted a home warranty company about a claim to replace his faulty AC unit. It promised the 3,000 dollars but it never came. Because it was a reply from A.I. The company told their customer it was his fault and declined to pay. The moral of the story is, talk to a human, not A.I. 

Tom wonders, what is about to happen? The election is 1 week from tomorrow. Sees chaos coming and doesn’t see a good outcome coming from this election. So many warnings, like cyber attacks. Looking at the things in the Middle East. Says we are running out of normal, running out of time. Tom believes Jesus is about to rapture the church, His hand is on the door knob to get us.

Gospel: 

Time is short, need to make a decision. Says this is a time like no other. Warns running out of time. 

We needed a Savior to rescue us from sin that keeps us from a Holy God. Since before time God planned to send His only begotten Son to be the perfect sacrifice that could remove all sins. He came from heaven, lived a perfect life without sin and gave His life on the cross. He shed His blood to remove all sins for those who believe and receive.

Must admit of sins and need for a Savior. When we receive by faith, believing in all He did, will be saved. Nothing we do or can do, He did it all, a free gift because He loves us. 

Will be saved, born again, receive Holy Spirit, changed, ready for the rapture to take us to heaven before the 7 year tribulation. 

Be saved today, together with the family of God and Jesus forever in heaven…
