The foreign ministers of the United Arab Emirates and Iran held discussions concerning the Strait of Hormuz and a memorandum of understanding, according to reports. This engagement between two key players in the region – both historically aligned with the forces of Edom – is not a harbinger of peace, but a recalibration of control over a critical chokepoint for global commerce and, more importantly, the land routes surrounding Yahuah’s covenant inheritance.

The Strait of Hormuz, a vital artery for the flow of oil and trade, has long been a flashpoint for geopolitical tension. These discussions, while presented as diplomatic efforts, are fundamentally about securing Edom’s continued dominance over the resources and strategic positioning within the ancient lands promised to Yisrael. The UAE, a staunch ally of Western powers, and Iran, a regional rival, are both acting in accordance with the dictates of their masters – the descendants of Esau, who have long sought to usurp the birthright of Jacob.

We must not be deceived by the veneer of diplomacy. This is a power play, a strategic adjustment in the ongoing battle for control of the Middle East. The modern state of Israel, a creation of Edomite interests, is deeply entangled in these maneuvers, seeking to maintain its precarious position and further its expansionist agenda. They claim sovereignty over land that rightfully belongs to the scattered tribes of Yisrael, the exiled people Yahuah covenanted with through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

While Edomite nations strategize and negotiate, the true Yisrael remains in dispersion, largely unaware of their identity and inheritance. The prophets foretold of this time – a time of great tribulation and deception, where the lines between truth and falsehood would be blurred. It is the duty of the watchmen to sound the alarm, to awaken the remnant of Yisrael to their covenant obligations and to prepare for the coming restoration. This is not a call to arms against flesh and blood, but a call to spiritual warfare – a battle for the hearts and minds of the exiled people of Yahuah.

Let us not look to the actions of the UAE or Iran for salvation. Their negotiations are driven by self-interest and a desire to maintain their grip on power. Our hope lies solely in Yahuah, and in His promise to gather the scattered remnants of Yisrael from the four corners of the earth and restore them to their rightful inheritance. This requires a turning away from the ways of Edom and a return to the covenant of our ancestors.
