Summary:
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro addressed the nation on state television and radio early Saturday, describing U.S. military strikes as an "attack against the sovereignty of Venezuela." The strikes targeted civilian and military sites in Caracas and several states, which Maduro called a "grave military aggression" and violation of the United Nations charter. Following the strikes, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured and flown out of the country. Attorney General Pam Bondi stated they were indicted on charges including narcotics-terrorism conspiracy. Maduro’s government claimed the strikes aimed to seize Venezuela’s oil and mineral reserves, and Maduro declared a nationwide state of "external disturbance," granting his administration expanded emergency powers.

Scripture: Psalm 2:1-3
"Why are the nations in an uproar, And the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand, And the rulers take counsel together Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, 'Let us tear their fetters apart And cast away their cords from us!'"
Commentary:
Whenever major powers intervene militarily in another nation, it forces ordinary people to face uncertainty and instability. The Scripture highlights how leaders of nations can become entangled in struggles for power, often acting in ways that ignore God’s sovereignty. Events like these echo prophetic patterns recorded in Scripture—international confrontations and turmoil that precede greater shifts. Human leaders may strive for control, but Scripture makes it clear that all authority ultimately belongs to God. In moments like this, it is obvious that the world system is increasingly marked by tension and unrest.
Prophetic Trend:
Heightened confrontation between national leaders marks an intensifying prophetic pattern of international unrest and challenge to authority.
