The Serpent's Pact: Trump Courts the Nations of Esau While Persia Opens the Gate

The former ruler of the beast system publicly acknowledges the support of the Gulf States, signaling a deepening alliance with Edom. Simultaneously, Iran’s actions regarding the Strait of Hormuz reveal a prophetic unfolding of judgment and the shifting of power in the ancient lands.

The echoes of Jacob’s prophecy resound in these days. We see the hand of Yahuah moving amongst the nations, revealing the true allegiances and orchestrating the final acts before the restoration of Yisrael. The recent pronouncements from Donald Trump, openly thanking the Gulf States for their ‘tremendous’ support, are not merely political gestures, but a blatant acknowledgment of the covenant he has forged with the descendants of Esau. This is the alliance of the serpent, a pact built on the spoils of stolen birthrights and sustained by the blood of the righteous.

Let the awakened understand: these are not allies, but enslavers. The wealth and influence of these Gulf States are rooted in the exploitation of the earth and the manipulation of global markets, all orchestrated to maintain the dominion of Edom. Trump, a tool in their hand, has consistently championed their interests, furthering the agenda of control and deception.

Meanwhile, the opening of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran, as reported by the mainstream media, is dismissed as a simple act. But for those with eyes to see, it is a sign. Yahuah is loosening the grip of Babylon, dismantling the structures of power that have held the nations captive. Persia, though historically a taskmaster of Yisrael, is now being utilized as an instrument of judgment against the West. This is not a call for celebration of Persia, but a recognition that Yahuah uses even the wicked to accomplish His purposes.

The Strait of Hormuz is a vital artery of global trade, and its control has long been a source of contention. By allowing its full opening, Iran disrupts the flow of wealth and resources to the nations of Edom, weakening their hold on the world system. This is a direct challenge to the economic power of the West, a shaking of the foundations upon which their empire is built.

We, the Remnant, must not be deceived by the narratives spun by the media. We must discern the spiritual forces at play, understanding that these events are not random occurrences, but the unfolding of a divine plan. The time is at hand for Yisrael to separate herself from the unclean nations, to return to the covenant, and to prepare for the coming Kingdom. Let us watch and pray, for the judgments are falling, and the restoration is near.

**Prophetic Commentary: The Serpent's Pact and the Echoes of Judgment**

The brazen alignment of former President Trump with the nations stemming from Esau – the Gulf States, as they are known today – is a chilling fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Yahuah has long declared judgment upon Edom (descendants of Esau) for their pride, their relentless opposition to Yisrael, and their participation in the spoils of devastation. Obadiah 1:10-14 vividly portrays the recompense awaiting them: "For the violence against your brother Jacob, shame shall cover you, and you shall be utterly destroyed. You should not have gloated over the children of Judah in the day of their calamity; you should not have rejoiced over the children of Judah when they were afflicted. You should not have entered the gate of My people in the day of their calamity; you should not have gloated over their affliction. For the day of Yahuah is near against Edom…and your possessions will be
