July 17, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – It’s a trap, do not fall for it!

Reads well known and loved Psalm 23. 

Tom feels a strong need today to address something he feels is important that he sees happening. As he watches what is going on with the events around Trump. Many seem to be elevating him, almost to the status of “messiah.” That he will save America, make everything better. Says he even sees it on his comments. Or some say he is the antichrist. Neither.

Tom says he has been done with politics, as he knows many others say the same thing. That we look to Jesus and not let this take our eyes away from him. This is become a major distraction.

Tom doesn’t see an election. Doesn’t think they will allow it. The WEF and other elite gatherings said Trump stalled their 2030 agenda by 4 years and they are not going to make that mistake again. He will not be elected. 

Many have even predicted another assassination attempt in the coming weeks. The news was put out that the security around Trump was increased due to threats Iran has made to an assassination in recent weeks. But it didn’t look like there was increased security that day. And Iran has made those threats since 2020 when Trump ordered the assassination of Iran’s major General Soleimani. 

A very troubling event in the convention was the benediction they had that was shocking. They closed it with the prayer given to a pagan god by a member of a waheguru group. A genderless god of the seek religion that believes in the rebirth and Karma. A high profile republican attorney went to the podium and covered her head and chanted the pagan prayer to their one true god they say, and seeking protection and blessing to Trump. 

What was really astounding was the reaction. This is claimed to be a Christian party group. The audience bowed their heads as she sang her pagan prayer. 

Tom says many may say there is 80% that is good so we just overlook the 20%. But the bad part is very bad! 

Tom pleads, we are in the last days, don’t fall into that trap! Keep our eyes on Jesus, the same One that came to save the world by His blood on the cross.

News: Latest estimate is IDF has captured some 14,000 terrorists in Gaza war including 20 battalion commanders and over 1,000 terror operatives in the past 2 weeks. IDF cut down escape routes in tunnels. Says half of Hamas leadership has been killed so far. 

Amir says reports are that IDF thinks Hamas leader Sinwar is hiding in tunnels beneath Kham Yunis. Reported he is coming under increased pressure to stop the war and accept a ceasefire deal. 

Yesterday leader of Hezbollah gave a speech on one of their holy days. He threatens to attack new communities, going in deeper to Israel than staying in the north. Iran threatens to shoot missiles to Israel to areas not yet targeted. They repeat to say as long as Israel is in Gaza they will not stop. 

Last night police shot and killed a suspect who had a gun near the secure zone of the convention in Milwaukee.

Amir reported many rocket came into N. Israel but were intercepted by Iron Dome.

Tom recommends on Bubba News as he uses his information and comments regularly. He has a you tube and gives updates. 

He said Hezbollah has been changing its tactics lately. From day time attacks to increased night time attacks. Also shooting rockets at some of the same places over and over in attempt to find weak spots in the Iron Dome. Switching from drone warfare to more rocket warfare in the northern border and Galilee. Bubba thinks they may be planning something, especially when Netanyahu is said to come to the US to speak next week, July 24.

Tom strongly feels the closer to the rapture the distractions will increase. Pleads to keep eyes on Jesus and be in God’s Word. 

S. Korea reports N. Korea is planting tens of thousands of land mines and wall fences on the border. The N. Korean military are forced to work in the sweltering heat and monsoons and have multiple casualties.

Weather: on July 15- 16 its reported more rain in central China in one day than a whole year.

Residents in a town in S. Illinois told to evacuate as a dam failure is imminent.

Reports in New Jersey of loud bombs and shaking July 16.  Headlines said Nasa said a 34,000 mph meteor passed the Statute of Liberty and burnt up in the air.

Gospel: God sent His Son to be the perfect sacrifice required to take away all our sins forever so we can live with Him forever. Believe and be saved today.

Today’s Scriptures:

Psalm 23:1-6 KJV

[1] The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. [2] He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. [3] He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. [4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. [5] Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. [6] Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Psalm 83:1-18 KJV

[1] Keep not thou silence, O God: Hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. [2] For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: And they that hate thee have lifted up the head. [3] They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, And consulted against thy hidden ones. [4] They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; That the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. [5] For they have consulted together with one consent: They are confederate against thee: [6] The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; Of Moab, and the Hagarenes; [7] Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; The Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; [8] Assur also is joined with them: They have holpen the children of Lot. Selah. [9] Do unto them as unto the Midianites; As to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison: [10] Which perished at Endor: They became as dung for the earth. [11] Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: Yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna: [12] Who said, Let us take to ourselves The houses of God in possession. [13] O my God, make them like a wheel; As the stubble before the wind. [14] As the fire burneth a wood, And as the flame setteth the mountains on fire; [15] So persecute them with thy tempest, And make them afraid with thy storm. [16] Fill their faces with shame; That they may seek thy name, O LORD. [17] Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; Yea, let them be put to shame, and perish: [18] That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, Art the Most High over all the earth.
