DEALING with RUSSIAN aggression

 

Jeremiah 1:13-14

King James Version

13 And the word of the Lord came unto me 

the second time, saying, 

What seest thou? 

And I said, I see a seething pot; 

and the face thereof is toward the north.

14 Then the Lord said unto me, 

Out of the north an evil shall break forth 

upon all the inhabitants of the land.


How can wars be fought, and won?

Are wars necessary at all?

How can we avoid it?

SPIRIT, through Scripture, taught me what causes wars.

Today, He led me to THREE short videos explaining what's happening to Russia, Ukraine, and western Europe now.

And where America's place is in all these.


From the three short videos, you will recognize these -- 

What American president Donald Trump has been trying to achieve.

Why he met Putin last week.

Why he met with European heads of state yesterday, including NATO's chief.

And the methods Trump has put in place, to achieve his objectives.


Trump's plan has always been peace.

So far, the Nobel Peace Prize has been kept out of his reach.

And I do hope he not care about that.

GOD did choose him to be president at these critical times.

When you serve the LORD, expect no credit.

Expect lots out outrage, especially if your mission is peace.

The defiant Dems have had their chance and they've messed up.

Now, Republicans have to take back their power, and support this peace-loving president.


FIRST video:

It took a military historian, Victor Davis Hanson, to explain the mess Obama and Biden have done regarding Ukraine.

But the Dems and woke left won't give Trump credit for trying to foster peace.

Nope, they won't give him that compliment.

They'd much rather go to war and add to the 1.5 million souls that have already perished, or have been captured, because of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

From Obama, to Biden, it's all been a Ukrainian mess.


SECOND video:

It also took an astute Fox News anchorwoman, Dana Perino, to explain the facts regarding president Trump's meeting with European heads of state. 

She also spoke of the pivotal role America's first lady took towards trying to change Putin's mind.


Those two, short videos explain to us what's really happening, and the motives behind all these "power" talks.


THIRD video:

It took a former White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, to explain the meeting the seven European leaders had with president Trump.

At how they sat across his desk, like students facing a principal, for some misdemeanor, or something.

Or at how they asked for his help.

And how they finally see how Trump had been right, all along.

But you know Trump, he's master showman, and negotiator.

He knows how to "set" deals, and talks, for maximum gains.

He knows how to reprimand ungrateful leaders of nations.

We all know he likes to set the tone for negotiations.

So far, it's worked.


Even his previous spat with Ukraine president Zelensky seems forgotten.

The latter conceded and wore a black jacket over his usual black gear.

At the previous meeting Trump was not too happy with his casual garb.

Not to mention his "attitude".


Seems Trump was also not happy with my own president's white "barong" (our national costume) when Marcos met with him.

But that's Trump.

He likes a certain protocol, and "look", for when he meets leaders, for the press.

Something about showing respect for the president, the White House, and the American people.

But if that's all he can be faulted with, then it's no big fault at all.


All these meetings with Putin, and the seven European leaders all point towards peace between Ukraine and Russia.

Europe wonders if Russia's taking over Ukraine is just a springboard for Putin taking over the whole of western Europe.

With Putin, a former KGB head, you never know.

And it had to be president Trump to "broker" the peace, and strategy talks.

After all, America has regained her power in world leadership.

Thanks to GOD's GRACE, Trump's tough stance, and decisiveness.

But Victor Davis Hanson noticed something the press had not really focused on.

Perhaps, they keep waiting for Trump to stumble, and had not realized there was a GREAT gem of TRUTH that was given by one, particular European president, whose border was right next to Russia.


President of Finland, Alexander Stubb, explained his own country's  approach to Russian aggression, back in 1939.

He did mention an 800-mile-long boundary Finland shared with Russia, and vice-versa.

Finland knew how to deal with Russia in those terrible days of World War II.

It's worth taking note of Stubb's reminder in the latter part of Hanson's short video.

Something we can all surely learn from.

Especially the proud, and wily presidents of the world.


Last of all, whether you're born again, or not, you need to remember THREE things --

Only GOD can make things possible.

Matthew 19:26

King James Version

26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, 

With men this is impossible; 

but with God all things are possible.


PEACE can only COME through JESUS.

John 16:33

King James Version

33 These things I have spoken unto you, 

that in me ye might have peace. 

In the world ye shall have tribulation: 

but be of good cheer; 

I have overcome the world.


Romans 5:1

King James Version

5 Therefore being justified by faith, 

we have peace with God 

through our Lord Jesus Christ:


1 Corinthians 14:33

King James Version

33 For God is not the author of confusion, 

but of peace, 

as in all churches of the saints.


Only through JESUS can we accomplish anything.

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.
