Scripture: Proverbs 21:1 (NASB 1977)
"The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD;
He turns it wherever He wishes."
Commentary:
National schedules can change fast when war pressures leaders to stay close to home. That’s real. Proverbs frames even top-level decisions as ultimately steered by the Lord’s hand, not just by optics or diplomacy. In moments like a postponed summit, people on the ground feel the uncertainty first while headlines shift.

Prophetic Trend:
Wartime pressures are tightening leaders’ movements, reshaping diplomatic timing, and escalating instability around Israel’s covenant land without settling relationships.
