Trump’s Peace Deal: Could This Be The First Step Toward Daniel’s Final Covenant?
Trump has already boasted how this plan is not just about Gaza, but the start of something for the whole Middle East. This is just the first phase and clearly there are plans to bring about something bigger in the future. For students of Bible prophecy, all eyes are on what happens next as we see parallels to what scripture has already foretold.
After years of war, Israel and Hamas have agreed to move forward with a U.S.-brokered peace plan designed by President Donald Trump. The deal, which includes the release of hostages, phased ceasefires, and a new governing structure for Gaza, has been accepted by all parties and backed by an international coalition.
A “Board of Peace” — reportedly with potential oversight from both the United States and European figures like Tony Blair — will supervise the agreement’s implementation. Multiple nations will act as guarantors. The fighting will stop. Gaza will begin rebuilding.
For much of the world, this looks like a long-awaited miracle.
But for students of Bible prophecy, it also raises profound, even chilling, questions. Could this be the beginning of the peace Daniel foretold — the one that sets the final prophetic clock ticking?
- A Covenant “Confirmed” — Not Created Anew
Daniel 9:27 describes a figure who will “confirm a covenant with many.” The wording is striking — not “create,” but “confirm.” The Hebrew implies strengthening or enforcing an existing agreement.
Trump has already boasted how this plan is not just about Gaza, but the start of peace for the whole Middle East. This is just the start and clearly there are plans to bring about something bigger in the future. For now it is one step at a time until there is momentum for a much bigger peace plan with more nations involved.
If that sounds familiar, it should. Daniel’s prophecy suggests that a future world leader will one day make firm an already-existing covenant involving Israel and “the many.” In prophetic language, that act of confirmation marks the beginning of the final seven-year period of history — the time leading to the return of Christ.
Are we there yet? Almost certainly not. But this could be the kind of foundation that one day evolves into that covenant — an early stone in a structure that prophecy says will one day dominate the world’s attention.
- A Third-Party Guarantor — and a “Board of Peace”
What makes this peace deal unusual is its multi-national oversight. It’s not just between Israel and Hamas. It’s guaranteed by a coalition of outside powers: the United States, Arab nations, and reportedly, European involvement through figures like Tony Blair.
At the center of this structure is something called a Board of Peace — a global oversight body that will help govern Gaza and ensure compliance. That may sound administrative, but spiritually, it’s fascinating.
Revelation 13 and 17, and Daniel 2 and 7, all describe the rise of a final world power with ten leaders or “kings” who share authority under one dominant figure. The “beast with ten horns” in Revelation represents a political alliance that ultimately serves one ruler — the Antichrist.
Could Trump’s Board of Peace, or its future evolution, be a first step toward such a structure — a prototype for global oversight that later expands into a “council of ten”? It’s far too early to say. But it’s worth watching.
Prophecy tells us that the final covenant will not just be signed by Israel and its neighbors — it will be enforced and confirmed by an outside authority. This peace plan, for the first time, creates exactly that mechanism: a multinational body empowered to “guarantee” Middle Eastern peace.
That’s new. And it’s deeply significant.
- A Seven-Year Framework — The Key Piece To Be Watching For
While the current agreement doesn’t publicly specify a seven-year term, some reports suggest a long-term phased arrangement — possibly with multi-year checkpoints or reviews.
For prophecy watchers, that detail matters enormously. In Daniel’s timeline, the “final week” represents seven years — the period in which the Antichrist rises, Israel experiences false peace, the temple is desecrated, and the world moves toward the climactic return of Christ.
So while there is currently no talk of a seven-year term, this is a key prophetic watchpoint. If, at any stage, this peace plan or its successor is publicly fixed to a seven-year duration — or formally “confirmed” by a major world leader — we would be staring at one of the most dramatic prophetic markers of our lifetime.
For now, we simply note it — and stay watchful.
4. Israel at Peace — The Calm Before the Storm?
Ezekiel 38 speaks of a time when Israel will be “living securely, all of them without walls.” It describes a season of apparent calm — a peace so convincing that enemies later strike without warning.
If this peace plan holds, Israel may soon enjoy something like that: open borders, normalized trade, regional partnerships, and quiet streets after years of rockets and chaos. No doubt this will take years after the trauma of October 7th but this is truly what the people of Israel long for… peace.
And it will one day feel like peace. But sadly it will be the kind of peace prophecy calls false peace — a calm before judgment. The Apostle Paul warned, “When they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them” (1 Thessalonians 5:3).
5. What We Should Watch For Next
If we are witnessing the early stage of something prophetic, several key developments could follow:
Expansion of the Board of Peace: If it grows to include 10 nations or 10 leaders, that could mirror the “ten kings” imagery of Daniel and Revelation.
A broader regional accord: If this peace plan extends beyond Gaza to encompass Saudi Arabia,Lebanon, Syria and others — “with many” — that would fit Daniel’s phrase precisely.
A confirming world leader: Prophecy points to a single “prince” who enforces and guarantees peace. If a future figure rises to take credit or authority over such a covenant, that would be another crucial sign.
A defined seven-year term: As noted, if the peace structure ever becomes explicitly seven years in length, the prophetic countdown could truly be ready to begin.
Each of these would move the world closer to the fulfillment of Daniel’s words.
6. Watch, Pray, and Stay Grounded
It is tempting, in times like these, to look at the headlines and say, “This is it.” But God warns us to watch carefully, not carelessly. Prophecy is meant to prepare us, not panic us.
We must remember: God’s plan is perfect, His timing sovereign, and His wisdom far above ours. No leader, no treaty, and no board of peace will move one inch beyond what He allows.
Yet, Jesus also said, “When these things begin to happen, look up, for your redemption draws near.” (Luke 21:28).
So we watch — not in fear, but in faith. We discern world events with sober minds and open Bibles. And above all, we stay ready — because the same Lord who warned of false peace will one day bring everlasting peace when He reigns from Jerusalem Himself.
Until then, the headlines may keep coming, but prophecy will never change: the world is racing toward a covenant that only Christ Himself can truly fulfill.
Are you ready?

Faith On Trial: the US Supreme Court To Decide Future Of Christian Counseling

With profound implications for counselors, clergy, and families nationwide, the stakes are high. If your not paying attention to this case you need to be.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a pivotal case examining whether Colorado’s 2020 ban on so-called “conversion therapy” infringes on First Amendment rights.
The practice — designed to provide minors grappling with same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria access to guidance and counseling — was outlawed under Colorado’s Prohibit Conversion Therapy for a Minor law. This legislation declares that any effort to “change an individual’s sexual orientation, including efforts to change behaviors or gender expressions, or to eliminate or reduce sexual or romantic attraction or feelings toward individuals of the same sex” is inherently harmful and ineffective. Violators, including licensed therapists, risk losing their professional credentials and facing penalties of up to $5,000 in fines.
With profound implications for counselors, clergy, and families nationwide, the stakes are high. Here’s a closer look at the key dimensions of this landmark clash.
The Case in Court
Central to this constitutional showdown is Chiles v. Salazar, a 2022 lawsuit filed by Kaley Chiles, a licensed Colorado therapist and faith-based counselor. Chiles argued that the ban unconstitutionally suppresses her First Amendment rights by outlawing talk therapy sessions that delve into clients’ unwanted same-sex attractions or gender dysphoria through methods like counseling, prayer, or behavioral strategies.
As Family Research Council emphasized, “Colorado has labeled her counsel ‘conversion therapy,’ denied religious exemptions, and is now trying to silence her. If they succeed, it sets a precedent that threatens every pastor, counselor, youth leader, and Christian parent in America.” Yet, FRC also pointed out the potential upside of a favorable ruling: “A ruling for Kaley Chiles would be a major step toward protecting free speech, defending religious freedom, and giving hurting people the opportunity to find freedom in Christ.”
The legal journey has been turbulent. A federal district court initially enjoined the ban on First Amendment grounds, viewing it as an overreach into protected speech. But the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed course, classifying the prohibited practices as “professional conduct” subject to state regulation rather than free speech.
Now, the Supreme Court’s nine justices will weigh in. In anticipation, FRC issued an urgent call to action: “Join us in praying for truth and discernment while the Supreme Court hears oral arguments and deliberates on the case.”
The Reality on the Ground
Beyond the courtroom, the case underscores a chilling atmosphere for open dialogue on sensitive topics. Supporters of Chiles had organized a rally outside the Supreme Court to amplify their message of free speech and faith. But in a stark illustration of escalating tensions, the event was canceled over credible safety threats.
The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which is spearheading Chiles’s defense, had to make the difficult call. “We were told by our security team that it’s not safe, given the current political climate, for us to even be outside speaking about this issue,” ADF Senior Counsel Kate Anderson shared with The Daily Caller. “Instead of having free debate in our country, we’re seeing people resorting to violence and to threats. And that’s particularly sad [and] disturbing when we’re talking about a case that’s all about free speech and allowing people to debate the things that are most difficult and most controversial in our country, so that we can come to good solutions that will help and save kids.”
ADF CEO Kristen Waggoner echoed these concerns, framing the cancellation as a symptom of broader societal fractures. “Sadly, the usual supporting rally outside the Supreme Court will not take place. Experienced security professionals warned that the threats of violence at an outdoor event were too great.” She continued, “Our allies sponsoring the rally couldn’t simply ignore those threats. We’ve all witnessed the wave of violent attacks in recent weeks — many of which are politically motivated, with apparent ties to radical gender ideology. And that ideology is at the center of this case.”
Waggoner drew a sharp line between legitimate protest and intimidation: “It’s no coincidence that some who blur the line between speech and violence also feel justified using violence to stop speech.” She vowed resilience, adding, “And make no mistake: we won’t allow violent activists to have a permanent veto over public rallies either.” Waggoner asserted that it’s “imperative that Americans — both our policymakers and our people — redraw a bright line between the two. Violence is violence. Speech is speech. And speech should be free.”
Charting the Path Forward
Escalating threats may thwart outdoor assemblies, but they don’t appear to be dampening the resolve of faith communities turning to prayer amid the uncertainty.
Parents Beware: The U.N. Plans To End Homeschool Freedom

The United Nations just put a giant target on the backs of homeschooling worldwide. Under the guise of “human rights,” the U.N.’s controversial “education” bureaucracy is officially demanding that all governments regulate and control home education–if they allow it at all.
