Psalm 20:7-9
King James Version
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses:
but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought down and fallen:
but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.
I first heard about it yesterday.
Qatar is to give president Trump a plane.
It will be a Boeing 747 worth US$400-M.
But isn't Qatar the nation "funding" Hamas?
Didn't Hamas attack Israel on October 7?
Isn't Trump Israel's friend?
Uh-oh.
Like I said, I don't like it when I get "uh-oh" moments.
Questions hover --
Is the plane Qatar's way of washing her hands from Hamas taking a young Israeli-American hostage who was released today?
Is this Qatar's way of washing herself "clean" from the whole "hostage" situation?
Is this 747 gift a "prepping up" for when Trump visits Saudi Arabia this week?
What is Qatar's real intention?
Early on, after the October 7 attack on Israel, it was reported that Qatar was "funding" Hamas.
First time I heard Qatar wanting to gift president Trump a plane, I balked.
Under NO circumstances must America
accept such a gift.
In behalf of Israel, and the hostages.
In behalf of the young Israeli-American hostage.
In behalf of all soldiers fallen, and families grieving.
Receiving such a gift may signify betrayal of Israel.
After Trump announced a "ceasefire" -- I believe I even heard Houthi's "SURRENDER" -- Israel felt "left out".
And now, this "shadow" plane.
Trump's relations with Israel will be precarious.
EXACTLY as Satan wants.
Trump must be careful the devil's "DEVICES".
America is rising in the world again because GOD allowed it.
Will president Trump step off GOD's "train" now, and start doing things on his own?
He must remember what the WORD of GOD/JESUS said:
Zechariah 4:6
King James Version
6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying,
This is the word of the Lord
unto Zerubbabel, saying,
Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit,
saith the Lord of hosts.
John 15:5
King James Version
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches:
He that abideth in me, and I in him,
the same bringeth forth much fruit:
for without me ye can do nothing.
GOD chose Trump to be president this second time around.
It's PURE GRACE that Trump was appointed president again.
If he consorts with Israel's "enemy", this will be the beginning of the end for Trump -- in GOD's eyes.
He must NOT accept that gift.
Under ANY circumstances.
It's all about "principles".
Qatar is moneyed.
America is in debt.
Qatar is a friend of Hamas.
America is a friend of Israel.
Qatar funds terrorists.
America is targeted by terrorists.
Qatar is not exactly a friend of Israel.
America, at the moment, is a supporter of Israel.
Qatar has seen a "button" to push, regarding Trump.
They're enticing him with a new plane.
Isn't ONE presidential plane enough?
Why would Trump endanger his relations with Israel, over one such plane?
Let not this plane cast a "shadow" over their relations.
What is Trump's plan?
We do not know his chess pieces.
The next days, and actions, will reveal more.
Israel and Qatar have some "curious" relations.
We can know a few here:
"Until 2009, Qatar and Israel maintained trade relations, but due to Operation Cast Lead, Qatar broke the trade with Israel."
"In 2013, Qatar reportedly assisted in an Israeli operation to bring a group of Yemenite Jews to Israel. The claim was made by a Lebanese Arabic newspaper. According to the source, 60 Jews fleeing Yemen were allowed to transition from Doha on a flight to Israel."
"Israeli leaders harshly criticized Qatar's diplomatic and financial support of Hamas in the wake of Operation Protective Edge, accusing the Qataris of being major sponsors of terrorism.[7] Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman called for the banishment of Qatar-based Al Jazeera journalists from Israel."
"In June 2015, the Qatari government facilitated discussions between Israel and Hamas in Doha to discuss a possible five-year ceasefire between the two parties."
"In June 2017, Israel backed the Saudi-led bloc of Arab states opposed to Qatar in the 2017 Qatar diplomatic crisis, and announced the expulsion of Qatari state-funded broadcaster Al Jazeera Media Network from Israel."
"During the Gaza war, Qatar mediated between Hamas and Israel.[14][15] They reached the 2023 Gaza war ceasefire and the exchange of more than 100 Israeli hostages for 240 Palestinian prisoners."
"Despite Qatar's support of Hamas, Israeli leaders have maintained direct contact with the emirate. In January 2007, in his last months as vice premier, former President Shimon Peres paid a high-profile visit to the capital city of Doha. Peres also visited Qatar in 1996, when he launched the new Israeli trade bureau there."
-- "Israel-Qatar relations" (Wikipedia)
With regards to America, here's where Qatar stands with her:
"In the 21st century, Qatar emerged as both a major non-NATO ally of the United States and a middle power in the Arab world. Its economy has risen rapidly through its resource-wealth,[25][26] and its geopolitical power has risen through its media group, Al Jazeera Media Network, and reported support for rebel groups financially during the Arab Spring."
-- Wikipedia
President Trump must tread carefully on this one.
Plane, or no plane, he must remain loyal to Israel.
America's success today is tied up with Israel's "anointing".
GOD made Trump president again, for this purpose.
I know that for a fact, for I am witness to the verse indicating Trump's "win" -- TWO days before he won:
Ecclesiastes 3:15
King James Version
15 That which hath been is now;
and that which is to be hath already been;
and God requireth that which is past.
I am also witness to another verse given by the HOLY SPIRIT on 12 November 2024 -- soon after Trump won.
A verse, given in "warning" --
"Should he get all proud, and forgetful."
Daniel 5:20
King James Version
20 But when his heart was lifted up,
and his mind hardened in pride,
he was deposed from his kingly throne,
and they took his glory from him:
GOD knows Trump's heart.
Let not Trump give Democrats ammunition to bring him down.
Let not Trump disappoint his Jewish supporters.
My heart grieves that president Trump didn't "shoot down" the "plane" idea, right from the start.
He could have said, "Thanks, but no. I've got a good, decent plane from the American people."
Or perhaps, Boeing could gift the American government a NEWER presidential plane.
If Trump's current planes is at least 40 years old, the newer plane can last as long.
Of course, it will be tax-deductible -- that's fair.
Better to be retrofitted within America itself.
Safer for the president, and his staff.
On the other hand, this is where GOD will "test" Trump.
Maybe the president DOESN'T need ANOTHER plane.
Maybe he thinks he does, but this is where he has to "make do".
Let not covetousness, pride, and greed, cloud the president's judgment.
JESUS was clear:
Luke 12:15
King James Version
15 And he said unto them,
Take heed, and beware of covetousness:
for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance
of the things which he possesseth.
Scripture is clear:
Ephesians 5:1-3
King James Version
5 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us,
and hath given himself for us an offering
and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
3 But fornication, and all uncleanness,
or covetousness,
let it not be once named among you,
as becometh saints;
Ephesians 5:5
King James Version
5 For this ye know,
that no whoremonger, nor unclean person,
nor covetous man, who is an idolater,
hath any inheritance
in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Colossians 3:5
King James Version
5 Mortify therefore your members
which are upon the earth;
fornication, uncleanness,
inordinate affection, evil concupiscence,
and covetousness, which is idolatry:
Hebrews 13:5
King James Version
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness;
and be content with such things as ye have:
for he hath said, I will never leave thee,
nor forsake thee.
1 John 2:15-17
King James Version
15 Love not the world,
neither the things that are in the world.
If any man love the world,
the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh,
and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life,
is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof:
but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
Covetousness is "idolatry".
GOD was clear about having no other "gods":
Exodus 20:1-3
King James Version
20 And God spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God,
which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt,
out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Isaiah 45:5
King James Version
5 I am the Lord, and there is none else,
there is no God beside me:
I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Trump's "faith office" at the White House is headed by Paula White.
She's known to be a "prosperity" teacher.
As such, she won't be able to "guide" the president appropriately.
That's why we pray Trump steps away from these now.
JESUS had nothing, while He was on earth.
All He had was GOD, and the mission He needed to do.
As Beloved SON OF GOD, He was given EVERYTHING.
The "King of Kings" didn't need any worldly stuff.
We, children of GOD, must follow JESUS' example.
He's all we need to make the RIGHT decisions.
