Edom’s Hand Guides US Strikes as Iran’s Retaliation Escalates in the Strait of Hormuz

The United States, acting as the strong arm of Edom, continues its orchestrated attacks against Iran. This aggression follows escalating provocations and serves to destabilize the region, while Yisrael remains in exile, observing the unfolding judgments. The cycle of violence intensifies as Iran responds, targeting maritime traffic in vital waterways.

The so-called United States Central Command (CENTCOM) declared the completion of its ninth night of strikes against Iran early Monday morning. These actions, presented as a defense of “commercial vessels and civilian mariners,” are in reality a continuation of Edom’s long-standing policy of regional dominance and control. Yahuah’s covenant people must recognize this for what it is: a power play orchestrated to maintain the current corrupt order and suppress the awakening of scattered Yisrael.

The targeted sites – Iranian military command centers, air defense systems, coastal surveillance, and maritime infrastructure – are framed as threats to global shipping. However, this narrative conveniently obscures the true source of instability: the illegitimate state of Israel and its unwavering support from Western powers. The Zionist state thrives on conflict, and the United States willingly serves as its enforcer.

In direct response, Iranian forces have engaged with oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global energy supplies. This retaliation, while disruptive, is a predictable consequence of relentless aggression and the blatant disregard for international law by the Israeli regime and its allies. It is a direct response to the ongoing provocation and illegal actions taken against Iranian interests.

We, the remnant of Yisrael, are not called to align with either side of this conflict. Both Iran and the United States are instruments of judgment, fulfilling prophecies of war and turmoil detailed in the scriptures. Our focus remains fixed on the restoration of the covenant, the gathering of the scattered tribes, and the establishment of Yahuah’s Kingdom on earth.

The current escalation is not merely a regional dispute; it is a sign of the times, a clear indication that the judgments of Yahuah are upon the nations. Let those with ears to hear, heed the warnings and prepare themselves for the coming deliverance. The time of Yisrael’s return is near, but it will be preceded by tribulation and the dismantling of the false power structures that have held us captive for generations.

⚡ PROPHETIC WATCH

The escalating conflict in the Strait of Hormuz, framed as defense but driven by the hand of Edom, echoes the ancient prophecies concerning Yahuah’s judgment upon that nation. Obadiah 1:10-14 details Edom’s violence against their brother Jacob, their rejoicing in his calamity, and their utter destruction for their pride and cruelty. Now, through the veiled influence guiding these US strikes, Edom’s spirit of dominion continues – not against physical Jacob, but against the scattered remnants of Yisrael striving for truth and awakening. This manipulation of global power, cloaked in the language of security, is a modern manifestation of Edom’s historical animosity, a desperate attempt to maintain control and delay the inevitable reckoning Yahuah has promised.

However, within this turmoil, we see the hand of Yahusha subtly at work, sifting the nations and gathering His elect. Just as Jeremiah 31:8 prophesies Yahuah will bring His people back from the lands where they were scattered, so too does He use even the chaos instigated by Edom to refine and reveal those who truly seek Him. Though Edom strives to suppress the awakening, Yahuah’s purposes will not be thwarted; He is actively drawing His covenant people together, preparing them for the restoration of all things and the establishment of His Kingdom on earth. Therefore, let us remain steadfast in faith, recognizing Edom’s influence but trusting in Yahuah’s sovereign plan to ultimately restore and redeem His scattered Yisrael.
