As Christians, we are called to pray for God’s guidance and wisdom. At Rapture Ready we feel it is more imperative than ever for believers to stand together in prayerful unity as the world continues on a downward spiral toward the Tribulation hour. Calamity causes people to waste huge amounts of time fixated on watching the destruction instead of praying for protection and God’s miraculous interventions.
The Bible is filled with verses encouraging us to stay focused on praying for God’s will for our lives; for the safety and
Up to the final moments of our days on earth, until the day of the Rapture of the Church, we are dedicated to be prayer warriors for the cause of Christ. We have added this new page to invite and motivate our fellow believers to pray for the most pressing needs of the day.
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty” (1 Timothy 2)

Michigan Dems Push For ‘Radical’ Sex Ed Changes Before Control of State House Flips To GOP. The changes range from allowing schools to distribute condoms to giving schools a green light to teach students that abortion is a “method of family planning” and “reproductive health.” Proposed Dem amendments would also add leftist gender terms and require that schools “affirmatively recognize that individuals have different sexual orientations and gender identities.”
Islam Incursion
Sweden Crushes Free Speech: Politician Rasmus Paludan Jailed for Daring to Criticize Islam. This lays bare Sweden’s dangerous abandonment of free speech, where courts silence dissent and protect Islam from critique—even as they condemn a politician already hunted, violently attacked and forced to live in constant fear for his life simply for defending Western values.
Talibanization of Bangladesh: ‘Genocidal Campaign against Minority Hindu Population.’ Ever since Bangladesh’s prime minister was forced to flee, images, videos, and accounts streamed in of atrocities against the Hindu minority, whose numbers have depleted over decades almost to extinction.

Those Consumed By a Hatred of Jews Are Picking a Fight With God. Dozens were injured when a mostly Muslim mob attacked Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam. The attacks appear orchestrated and coordinated via social media. Those who hate Israel, seek to kill the Jewish people, and desire to wipe them off the face of the map are, in reality, picking a fight with God. They ought to tremble!
God’s hidden hand: Europe isn’t safe for Israelis anymore. The attacks on Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam serve as a stark illustration of growing concerns Israelis face when considering even brief visits to Europe.

Israel’s national anthem booed, scuffles break out during soccer match in France.

Feminists protest election with call to end marriage. After the majority of Americans voted for the economy over abortion, furious feminists announced they’d no longer date, marry, or have children. In the past, Americans protested by refusing to pay taxes; now, leftists are protesting by refusing to have children because of their frustrated eagerness to kill those same children in the womb.
Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics
Spike protein generated by mRNA covid vaccines is a cardiotoxin, a participant tells gathering of New Zealand cardiologists. Cardiology waiting rooms and hospital cardiac wards are full, especially with young patients, and the problem is getting worse.

In response to repeated Russian aerial incursions, NATO forces mobilized as Italian and Norwegian fighter jets intercepted multiple Russian aircraft straying close to NATO territories. These interceptions were necessary, as Russian aircraft ignored international aviation protocols.
Ukraine Is at War with Russia … & North Korea & Iran. North Korea’s regime has deployed up to 12,000 troops to fight alongside Russia nearly three years after Russia launched its brutal aggression against Ukraine. As Americans ventured to the polls, North Koreans did the same in Russia’s Kursk salient, where they clashed with Ukrainian forces, the first time an outside party fired a shot in this war.
Horrors of Hamas continue as IDF exposes torture videos of Gazans. Filmed torture of Gazan prisoners at the hands of Hamas has been found by Israeli troops.

Satellite imagery showed the Taleghan 2 site reduced to two piles of rubble by Israel’s Oct. 25 strikes. The facility was being used to design the explosive mechanism needed to detonate a nuclear bomb. Israeli strikes also destroyed three other nearby buildings that were being used to mix solid fuel for ballistic missiles.
New Israeli FM Sa’ar warns Iran getting closer to The Bomb; military operation possible if necessary. Gideon Sa’ar has been Foreign Minister of Israel for a week, and he’s already dealing with 3 global crises. First is the very real threat that the Iranian regime is about to break out and build not just one nuclear weapon but an entire arsenal.
Ready Or Not, An Apocalyptic Global War Is on Our Doorstep. There has been a lot of talk about “peace” and “safety” recently, after all the war we’ve witnessed in 2024. But global events are taking us in the other direction very rapidly. An apocalyptic global war is on our doorstep, but most people in the Western world are still in denial about what’s happening right in front of our eyes.
Concluding Scripture
“Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured [helped] thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 5:20-21 and 6:1-2).

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:11-17).
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7).
