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:
High-level summits can look decisive on camera, yet the real leverage often stays hidden in briefings, back-channel messages, and unresolved disputes. That’s not new. Proverbs roots authority under God’s hand even when leaders speak of “good faith” while tensions remain over security and technology. People watching markets and headlines feel the whiplash first.

Prophetic Trend:
Major powers keep signaling dialogue while deep fault lines persist, reflecting an ongoing pattern of shifting alignments and fragile coexistence.
