#566: God Has a Controversy With Our Nations
It is clear that God is no longer blessing the nations of America and Britain. But Bible prophecy says God goes beyond just refusing to bless these nations—He actually has “a controversy” with them! (Hosea 4:1). God is cursing America and Britain. Why? After the Prophet Hosea was inspired to write that God has a “controversy” with our nations, he explained why: “[B]ecause there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood” (verses 1-2). Could there be a more accurate description of America and Britain today? On this episode of the Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss why God is besetting our nations with so many curses.
#565: Why Won’t God Answer Our Prayers?
After the Charlottesville, Virginia, tragedy in August, President Donald Trump and many in his administration prayed that God would heal America. Just days after their prayers, Hurricane Harvey hit Houston, inundating the city with water in what will likely be the most expensive national disaster in United States history. After Harvey, the Trump administration prayed again. President Trump even declared a national day of prayer in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. A few days later, Hurricane Irma, the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded, hit the Caribbean and triggered a mass evacuation in Florida. Is God answering the prayers of America’s leaders? These events speak for themselves. The question now is, Why isn’t God blessing America? Why isn’t He healing our land? We answer these questions and more on today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show.
#564: The Rise of the Irreligious
More and more people across America and Britain are identifying themselves as nonreligious. Several reports in recent weeks have highlighted a dramatic shift over recent decades away from religion to atheism and agnosticism. Those who continue to hold on to their religious views suffer from increased persecution from the major media. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss true religion and the assault that is taking place against Christian values in America and Britain.
#563: Hurricane Irma and the Pope’s Visit to Colombia

#562: Can America Recover From Two Catastrophic Hurricanes?
Hurricane Irma appears to be on course to hit Florida over the weekend. It is the most powerful hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean. Is the United States about to suffer another major disaster just two weeks after Hurricane Harvey caused one of the most expensive catastrophes in U.S. history? What is the cause of these unprecedented storms? Could it really be man-made climate change as so many people believe? On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss the real cause of these natural disasters and explain the hope-filled message behind why they are happening.
#561: Is There Life After Death?
There are two main schools of thought regarding life and death. In the religious sphere, there are variations of the immortal soul doctrine, which teaches that the dead are not really dead. Outside of religion, there is the idea that ignores God and assumes that death is the end. Both of these ideas are false. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss what the Bible says happens after death, and we explain the inspiring plan that God has in store for every person who has ever lived.
#560: A New World Is Coming
Prophecy speaks of a utopian world on the horizon. But before it gets here, conditions on the planet will deteriorate as men fight and war, struggling with the curses God sends their way. His Church is charged with sharing this prophecy with the world. Hydrogen bomb explosions and natural disasters should actually sharpen our focus on how best to give to this world and what will have the most dramatic impact.
#559: Burning Man: Celebrating Sodom and Gomorrah in a Lonely Nevada Desert
A lightning strike ignited a wildfire last Sunday that caused the main road to the Burning Man festival to be closed down. Revellers, eager to begin their festival, dismissed the fire as a mere coincidence. What goes on at this festival is abominable. Yet tens of thousands of people journey out to the middle of the desert every year to engage in gross acts of immorality. The ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were just as proud of their rebellion against God’s law—God razed those two cities with fire from heaven. God does not respond lightly to rebellion. God says He is going to punish the nations of America and Britain specifically for their rebellion against His law. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss how God responds to people who celebrate sin.
#558: Roundtable Discussion: KT zu Guttenberg’s Comeback
Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg is back in German politics! KT made his first major political speech last night in Germany since his resignation from politics in 2011 over a plagiarism scandal. The Trumpet has been watching Guttenberg as a potential leader in Germany for more than 10 years now. After his departure from the political scene, we told our followers to continue watching this man. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, Stephen Flurry and Brad Macdonald discuss KT’s astonishing comeback and his rock-star level popularity in Germany.
#557: Will the Hurricane Unify a Deeply Divided America?
National disasters usually provide an opportunity for people to put differences aside and pull together. Hurricane Harvey has provided that opportunity, and many people in Houston and around America are working together to help out. But how long will the unity last? Already, America’s major media has started politicizing the disaster in Houston. The waters haven’t even receded, and the media is back to business as usual. The division in America is getting deeper, and Bible prophecy says it will result in the downfall of America. On today’s Trumpet Daily Radio Show, we discuss the impact Hurricane Harvey is having on a divided America.
