(Worthy News) – In a forceful address delivered from an investor forum in the Saudi capital, President Donald Trump issued a stark ultimatum to Iran, declaring that the Islamic Republic must choose between diplomatic engagement or face severe consequences over its nuclear ambitions.

“We will never allow America and its allies to be threatened with terrorism or nuclear attack,” Trump declared. “The choice is theirs to make… This is an offer that will not last forever. The time is right for them to choose — right now.”

The speech marked Trump’s most direct public comments yet on the status of U.S.-Iran negotiations, which are currently being mediated by Oman. Four rounds of indirect talks have taken place, including the latest on Sunday, but have yet to yield a breakthrough.

“If Iran’s leadership rejects this olive branch and continues to attack their neighbors, then we will have no choice but to inflict massive, maximum pressure… and take all action required to stop the regime from ever having a nuclear weapon,” Trump warned. “Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.”

Despite the tough rhetoric, the president indicated that a deal was still possible and suggested a shift in tone from previous administrations. “In the case of Iran, I have never believed in having permanent enemies. I am different than a lot of people think. I don’t like permanent enemies. Sometimes you need enemies to do the job and you have to do it right. Enemies get you motivated,” he said.

“I want to make a deal with Iran. I can make a deal with Iran. I’ll be very happy if we’re going to make your region and the world a safer place,” Trump added.

Special envoy Steve Witkoff has been dispatched by the Trump administration to engage in nuclear talks with Iranian representatives via Omani intermediaries. While the channels remain open, Trump’s speech suggested the window for diplomacy may be narrowing.

The president also launched a broadside against Iran’s foreign policy, accusing Tehran of fostering instability across the region. “Iran’s leaders have focused on stealing their people’s wealth to fund terror and bloodshed abroad. Most tragic of all, they have dragged down an entire region with them,” Trump said.

He blamed Iran for “countless lives lost” due to its support for the now-defunct Assad regime in Syria and Hezbollah’s influence in Lebanon, which he said led to “the downfall of Beirut, which was once called the Paris of the Middle East.”

“Can you imagine all of this misery and so much more was entirely avoidable, absolutely avoidable,” Trump added.

The President also criticized the Biden administration, alleging that its decision to ease sanctions on Iran helped fund terror groups like Hamas. He linked the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel to what he termed “reckless appeasement” of Tehran.

Trump’s renewed pressure on Iran coincides with a broader diplomatic and economic push in the region. His visit to Saudi Arabia includes meetings with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and the signing of historic investment and security agreements.

Still, Trump maintained that reconciliation with Iran remains possible.

“If only the Iranian regime had focused on building their nation up instead of tearing the region down,” he said. “Yet I’m here today not merely to condemn the past chaos of Iran’s leaders, but to offer them a new path and a much better path toward a far better and more hopeful future.

“In fact, some of the closest friends of the United States of America are nations we fought wars against in generations past,” he added, emphasizing his willingness to reset ties.

Whether Iran will respond to the ultimatum remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: Trump’s warning has added new urgency to nuclear negotiations already hanging in the balance.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
