September 28, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – Nasrallah is dead, what is next?

Hebrews 10: 23-25, Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering. For He who promised is faithful. Let us consider one another to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together in the manner of some but exhorting one another so much more as we see the day approaching.

Titus 2: 13 Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.

Tom says it shocks him the church doesn’t realize we are in the last days. Think could be 70-80% of the churches. The born again believers in Jesus will go in the rapture. Tom asks, if everyone who got raptured knew the rapture was about to happen why would they get crowns? Tom says its a very small sliver of the body of Christ who really understands how soon His return is. Tom says he has never seen an excitement and enthusiasm in the watching community as he is now. 

News last 24 hours: 

Quotes of some of Netanyahu’s speech from yesterday: we will not stop hitting Hezbollah until all our goals are achieved. He said he didn’t plan to come this year because his country is at war but decided to in order to respond to the lies against our country. Said Israel will win this battle because they don’t have a choice. Says after generations in which our people were slaughtered, no one raised a finger for our defense. We now have a state, a brave army of incomparable courage and defending ourselves.

As soon as his speech was over word was out Nasrallah was killed from a strike in Beirut.

Amir remarked could it be Netanyahu’s speech at the UN was a trap designed to bring Nasrallah to its headquarters to watch the speech from there? Amir said the decision to eliminate Nasrallah was made on Wednesday. The flight, a deceptive maneuver. They thought of canceling the trip but decided to maintain with the appearance as business as usual to Hezbollah. 

Netanyahu met with his defense minister at the hotel room just a half hour before the speech and was informed Nasrallah was present at the location. The Prime Minister approved the operation. Israel’s chief of staff oversaw the attack from the Air Force command center. 

Tom says he sees God’s hand on the nation and supernatural guidance in these things. 

Reports are that with Nasrallah the remaining leadership of Hezbollah that were there were killed at the same time. Also present were 10 Iranians that were killed. They had come for a secret meeting with Nasrallah. Many other people were killed that were  in the building above the bunker where they were hiding.

After that Iran’s leader Khameni held an emergency meeting at his home compound. 

Reports are Israeli air forces are now striking terrorist targets on Hezbollah in the area of Beirut. Striking buildings that stored weapons and command centers. Striking South and deep inside Lebanon.

Amir said rockets hit into Israel, no one was hurt. Says Hezbollah is diminished but remains dangerous.

Evacuations continue in Beirut. 

Another report says Israel’s Air Force eliminated the head of Hamas terror network in S. Syria Friday night. He had been responsible for carrying out terror attacks against IDF troops in Israel and S. Syria, firing to the Golan Heights area.

Hurricane Helene has devastated the South East US with at least 42 killed. Cat 4 hurricane affected Florida, Georgia, S. Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. Over 3.5 million without power.  Latest power outages, 1.19 million in S. Carolina, 899,000 in Georgia, 745,000 in N. Carolina, 676,000 in Florida, 329,000 in Ohio, 231,000 in Virginia, 209,000 in Kentucky. Need our prayers, major, so long to recover.

Gospel:

Time is short. Believers in Jesus that received salvation will be taken to heaven soon and those that have not will be left here during the 7 year tribulation on the earth. 

Make the choice to believe in what Jesus did to rescue us. He came to earth to die for all sins, shed His blood so we could be saved from the penalty of sin. 

Admit of being a sinner and need for a Savior. Jesus, perfect, no sin, gave His all because He loves us and wants us to be in heaven with Him. 

Believe and receive and will have sins, past present and future, forgiven forever. Will be saved, born again, receive Holy Spirit and rapture ready. 

Be saved today, with Jesus and the family of God forever.

Today’s Scriptures:

Hebrews 10:23-25 NKJV

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

2 Peter 3:3-4 NKJV

Knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”

2 Peter 3:8-9 NKJV

But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

Titus 2:11-13 NKJV

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 NKJV

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.  Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.  Therefore comfort one another with these words.
