Live updates • Iran warns U.S. attacks on nuclear sites would expand war, trigger retaliation

Hey Watchmen, Iran telling the world that any strike on their nuclear sites means the war goes wide — that's not a bluff, my friends, that's a nation showing you its heart. I've said it before: Iran wants blood, wants revenge, and they've got the stomach for a fight in a way I don't think Washington ever has. Every round of talks has been America pushing for the table, not Tehran. So when Iran says "expand the war," believe them — they mean it. And when a regime backs itself into that corner, publicly, on the record, it's no longer posturing. It's a threat they intend to keep. But here's what stirs in my spirit reading this: nations don't get to dictate the terms of judgment, no matter how loud the warning. Elohim raised up Nebuchadnezzar to be a hammer in His hand, and Nebuchadnezzar thought it was his own strength doing the swinging — right up until he was eating grass in a field. "Doth the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith?" (Isaiah 10:15). Iran can threaten retaliation all it wants; that doesn't put them outside the sovereignty of the Most High. He still sets up kings and takes them down. The Moedim are still marching forward on His calendar, not Tehran's, not Washington's. So watch the rhetoric, but don't be ruled by the fear in it. When leaders start drawing red lines and swearing to "expand" conflict, that's exactly the kind of hour Yeshua told us to stay sober and alert for — wars and rumors of wars, but the end is not yet, and our job is not to panic, it's to watch. Keep your eyes up, my friends, keep your lamps trimmed, and don't let Tehran's warnings shake what only the Father decides. Stay watching. Stay ready.
