Category: WARS & RUMORS OF WARS
Summary:
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi has declared that Egypt is in a "state of near-emergency" due to the economic threats posed by the ongoing conflict involving Iran. He warned that individuals engaging in price-gouging could face trials in military courts. Additionally, shipping companies are avoiding the Strait of Hormuz near Iran and consequently have stopped using the Suez Canal, further impacting Egypt's economy.

Scripture: Proverbs 11:1-2 (NASB 1977)
"A false balance is an abomination to the LORD,
But a just weight is His delight.
When pride comes, then comes dishonor,
But with the humble is wisdom."
Commentary:
When leaders warn against price-gouging, Scripture’s concern for honest scales comes into focus. Bread and fuel prices hit families first. In Egypt, rerouted shipping and the Suez slowdown expose how fast economic pressure can tighten daily life and push governments toward emergency measures, even military courts. This is a familiar prophetic pattern: instability spreads as trade routes are disrupted and nations jostle under conflict-driven stress. Stay clear of exploitation and deal straight while fear pressures markets.
Prophetic Trend:
Conflict-driven trade disruption is pressuring regional economies, increasing emergency powers and market manipulation as instability spreads across key Middle East corridors.
