Hi, I'm Summer with World News WEEKEND EDITION as of Friday, July 18th 2025
Israel & the Middle East
The Israeli military has entered a high-readiness posture as border conflicts intensify. Skirmishes with Hezbollah in the north and renewed rocket threats from Hamas in the south have stretched Israel’s defense lines. Many within the Israeli remnant are calling on the nation to repent and return to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
In Iran, military exercises and covert operations continue as the regime expands its influence over regional proxies. Believers see this as further confirmation of the prophetic alliances forming in Ezekiel 38.
Christians in the region report growing openness among some Muslims to hear the gospel, even as persecution escalates. A spiritual shaking appears to be underway in the shadows of war.
Europe
Tensions continue to rise across Europe as economic instability and violent social unrest grow. France, Germany, and the Netherlands remain under tight security following anti-Christian demonstrations and public desecration of churches.
The European Union’s push for digital centralization has entered a new phase, sparking concern among Christian leaders who warn that such mechanisms could easily be used to silence the faithful.
Believers in Western Europe are experiencing a growing sense of urgency and isolation, while Eastern European churches are standing stronger, openly resisting globalist mandates and calling for revival.
Russia & Ukraine
The battlefield in Ukraine remains active with heavy artillery exchanges near key border zones. Civilian infrastructure is again under fire, and both nations are hardening their rhetoric.
Russian alignment with China, Iran, and authoritarian regimes continues to take clearer shape. This geopolitical axis is increasingly hostile to Christianity and Western values.
Ukrainian churches, despite war, remain a beacon of hope—conducting baptisms in basements, holding services in bunkers, and preaching the gospel to soldiers and refugees alike.
Asia-Pacific
China has announced the next phase of its Taiwan unification agenda, backed by aggressive military drills in disputed waters. Many regional governments are bracing for further escalation.
Believers in Taiwan are preparing for spiritual resistance and humanitarian service. Churches have mobilized to pray day and night for protection and boldness as pressure grows.
Elsewhere in Asia, new religious restrictions are being implemented under the guise of “national security.” Underground Christian networks continue to operate in secrecy, yet revival is breaking out in unexpected places—house churches, factory floors, and mountain villages.
United States
The spiritual divide in America is widening rapidly. While lawmakers press forward with agendas hostile to biblical values, Christian resistance is growing. A wave of grassroots revivals, home churches, and public prayer meetings is spreading from coast to coast.
Economic uncertainty and rising lawlessness have many Americans fearful, but Christian leaders are reminding the Church that these are days of harvest and preparation.
Multiple legal cases now threaten the ability of Christian schools, ministries, and families to operate freely. Some states are considering legislation to ban “faith-based bias,” a thinly veiled attack on biblical convictions.
Nevertheless, remnant believers are organizing in cities, counties, and school boards—reclaiming ground and speaking truth boldly without fear.
Latin America
In Venezuela, believers are calling for national repentance as the country faces unprecedented inflation, food shortages, and violence.

Latin America
In Venezuela, believers are calling for national repentance as the country faces unprecedented inflation, food shortages, and violence.
Central America is seeing a revival among youth despite ongoing cartel threats and government hostility. Large gatherings are springing up in soccer fields, beaches, and parking lots where thousands are turning to Christ.
In Mexico, Christian missionaries continue to work under heavy risk near cartel-controlled zones. But salvations are being reported daily, and many families are turning to the Lord in the midst of chaos.
Africa
Persecution in Nigeria has increased again, with entire Christian villages facing displacement. Despite the brutality, believers remain unwavering, holding services under trees, in ruins, and by candlelight.
In East Africa, revival services are filling fields as the gospel is preached amid famine and disease. Believers in these regions are crying out for Jesus—not just for provision, but for His return.
Spiritual warfare in northern Africa is intensifying as Islamic militancy grows bolder. Yet, courageous Christian witnesses are boldly proclaiming the cross in the face of death.
Global Prophetic Trends
Natural disasters continue to surge—earthquakes, floods, and fires intensify across multiple continents. Many believers see this as the Earth groaning in anticipation, as Paul wrote in Romans 8.

Artificial intelligence, biometric tracking, and cashless systems are becoming normalized across the globe. What was once viewed as future prophecy is now operational reality. The foundations of Revelation’s global control system are visible.
The rise of one-world language, religion, and governance rhetoric is gaining traction in elite circles. Christian leaders warn this movement seeks to erase national identity, family design, and faith in Christ—making way for the man of lawlessness.
Weekend Prophetic Watch
We enter this weekend with the world on edge—militarily, morally, and spiritually. Nations are rising against nations. Truth is being cast down. Lawlessness is increasing. Yet amidst the darkness, the Bride of Christ is beginning to shine.
Prophetic voices are calling for urgency, purity, and preparedness. This is not the time for comfort or compromise. This is the time for the Church to rise in holiness, courage, and faith—clothed in righteousness and watching for the return of the King.
