Summary:
President Donald Trump confirmed that Delta Force, the U.S. Army’s elite counterterrorism and direct-action unit, conducted the overnight operation in Venezuela resulting in the capture of Nicolás Maduro and his wife. Delta Force, officially known as 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment–Delta, specializes in high-risk missions involving high-value targets and operates under U.S. Special Operations Command from Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

Scripture: Psalm 33:10-11
"The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation."

Commentary:
The arrest of national leaders in sudden military operations shows just how quickly human plans can be upended. People sense a surge of uncertainty when governments are shaken overnight. No matter how skilled or secretive any operation is, every nation’s future ultimately remains in God’s hands. These upheavals reflect the prophetic pattern of rising unrest among kingdoms that is evident in Scripture. Even outside biblical lands, such geopolitical shifts signal the persistent fragility and volatility foretold for the nations.

Prophetic Trend:
Rapid regime changes and covert interventions are amplifying global instability and echoing prophetic patterns of unpredictable international shaking.
