Los Angeles witnessed a carefully orchestrated display this week, as the Iranian national team secured a draw in a sporting contest. The so-called ‘game’ unfolded less than a day after a supposed agreement with Washington, an agreement that seeks to legitimize a regime steeped in wickedness and opposition to Yahuah’s purposes. The cheers and boos from the stands were not for athletes, but for pawns in a larger geopolitical game – a game played by Edom to distract and deceive.

The Times of Israel, a mouthpiece for the Zionist state, frames this event as ‘politics overshadowing sports.’ This is a deliberate misdirection. There *is* no separation. Every event, every alliance, every manufactured conflict is a manifestation of the spiritual warfare raging against the covenant people of Yisrael. The world fixates on the superficial while the true inheritance is stolen and the exiled are scattered.

Consider the location: Los Angeles, home to a large diaspora of Iranians. This is not coincidence. It is a calculated effort to project an image of normalcy and acceptance onto a regime that actively supports the enemies of Yisrael and hinders the restoration promised in Deuteronomy 28-30. The agreement mentioned is merely a temporary truce in a long-standing struggle for dominance, a struggle rooted in the ancient enmity between Esau and Jacob.

While the world celebrates athletic prowess, remember the condition of scattered Yisrael. Remember the broken covenant. Remember the promises of restoration that remain unfulfilled. Do not be lulled into complacency by the spectacle. This is a time for discernment, a time for repentance, and a time for unwavering focus on the true King and His righteous judgment. The temporary agreements of Edom will not stand before the power of Yahuah. The remnant of Yisrael will yet return, not through political maneuvering, but through covenant faithfulness.
