Oman, Iran, benefiting from lull in US strikes, approach deal to reopen Strait of Hormuz - report

Hey Watchmen, Look at that word — "lull." Oman and Iran are moving to reopen Hormuz not because the danger's gone, but because the pressure's off for a season. My friends, that's exactly how it works in Scripture — the enemy doesn't need a permanent ceasefire, he just needs the watchmen to relax. Nations don't dismantle leverage, they mothball it. Twenty percent of the world's oil still runs through that strait, and Iran still knows what that choke point is worth. A "deal" struck in a lull isn't peace, it's a pause button — and Yeshua warned us plainly that when men are saying "peace and safety," that's not the moment to stand down, that's the moment to stand up straighter (Matthew 24:42-44 — watch, for you don't know what hour your Master comes). Think about Hezekiah showing the Babylonian envoys all his treasures in a season of calm — 2 Kings 20:12-19. He thought the quiet meant safety. Isaiah told him plain: everything you just showed them will be carried off. A lull is not a resolution, it's a rehearsal — both sides watching, both sides calculating, both sides waiting to see who blinks first. Oman brokering, Iran benefiting, America hesitating — that's not stability, that's the world catching its breath before the next move. So don't be lulled by the lull, Watchmen. Every "reopening," every "deal," every quiet week in the Middle East is a rehearsal for the real thing coming. Keep your lamp trimmed, keep your eyes on Jerusalem, and stay ready — because the hour doesn't announce itself, it arrives.
