1 Kings 19:12 And after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire the sound of a low whisper.
1 Cor 15:57-58 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
Over the weekend, the United States launched a bold operation aimed at ending Iran’s nuclear program. In the quiet of the night, unseen by human eyes, B-2 Spirit bombers initiated Operation Midnight Hammer—a precision strike designed to eliminate hidden threats before they could bring harm. With unmatched stealth, they cut through the darkness, delivering a decisive blow against danger.
In much the same way, God moves in the unseen battles of our lives. When the enemy plots in the shadows, our mighty Deliverer initiates His own midnight operations. Without fanfare, without earthly applause, the Lord acts with precision, power, and purpose.
Elijah heard God not in the fire or the earthquake but in the still, small voice (1 Kings 19:12). Likewise, we may not always see or feel the hand of God at work, but rest assured—He is always advancing His plan. The enemy may think he has the upper hand, but God is never outmaneuvered. He is the Master of holy stealth, sending forth His Word, His angels, His Spirit to hammer down every scheme of darkness.
Are you facing hidden battles or feeling overwhelmed? Don’t fear—God sees every scheme, and even now, the hammer of heaven is striking where it must. The Lord of Hosts is on the move! Victory isn’t distant or uncertain; it’s here, ready to be claimed. The victory was secured at the cross and sealed by the empty tomb. Now, stand firm, pray boldly, and walk in the victory Christ has already given you. No force of darkness can stand against Him.

Prayer is more than a request — it’s an invitation. God, who respects the freedom He gave us, does not force His will upon us. But through prayer, we open the door for Him to move fully and freely in our lives.
As we ask in His name, and we see our prayers being answered, we realize how real and faithful our God is. But I want to focus on the life that is overflowing with JOY!
When the apostle Paul wrote this letter to his young student Timothy, he taught him some profound truths that I often apply in my life. I suppose when Timothy received these instructions, he was about my age – a young man still developing his skills at evangelism, teaching and instructing.
Yeshua (Jesus) knew the heart of every man and woman. As a totally pure and righteous human being, His experience of every other sin-filled person is really impossible for us to imagine. He knew that every repulsive thought, attitude and action of every person in the world would soon fall on Him, and that He would carry them…away. And so Yeshua did not come with a spirit of condemnation — but with a spirit of grace and truth.
As we are entering some of the most turbulent times in history, we’ve been receiving an unbelievable amount of email expressing concern about the future. But I want to tell you a little something – the future is VICTORY!
How often, in all the issues we have to deal with talking with people, we know or we feel we are right; our idea, our position, our interpretation is it, and we’re ready to fight for it…
