US Intercepts Possible Iranian Islamic Regime 'Sleeper Assets' Trigger

Intercessors For America

BCN Editor's Note: While we should all remain alert to things around us, as Believers in Jesus we do not have to be fearful. God tells us in the Bible to "Fear not," or "Do not be afraid" many times, and doing a search on those verses will be very helpful in gaining courage for the times in which we live. So when we hear of sleeper cells in our country or abroad, instead of becoming terrified, keep this verse in mind: "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you." (Deut. 31:6) And remember: "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." (2 Tim. 1:7) -Aimee Herd, Breaking Christian News

As Operation Epic Fury progresses, Americans are in danger. The US reportedly recently intercepted an Iranian "operational trigger" likely intended to activate "sleeper assets" within our borders.

From the Daily Caller:

An alert citing "preliminary signals analysis" was sent to multiple law enforcement agencies, according to ABC News, which reviewed the alert. The intercepted signal was reportedly sent to multiple nations following the killing of the former supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, by a joint US-Israeli attack on Feb. 28.

The signal, "likely of Iranian origin," was seemingly meant to be accessed by "covert operatives or sleeper assets" in possession of the encryption key without relying on the internet or cellular networks, according to the alert.

The communication could have been "intended to activate or provide instructions to prepositioned sleeper assets operating outside the originating country," the alert read, according to ABC.

The message was reportedly unclear, containing "no operational threat tied to a specific location." However, the alert still claimed that it "warrants heightened situational awareness."

The Caller highlights two recent attacks that may have been inspired by the fighting in the Middle East. In one instance, a gunman allegedly killed three people in a bar on March 1. The suspect wore clothes bearing Iranian symbols, including the nation's flag. Additionally, two men threw explosives at a crowd of protestors in New York City on March 7. Both men later claimed to have been inspired by ISIS. While neither of these attacks have been confirmed to have been coordinated by Iran, they both highlight the need for prayer.

As Operation Epic Fury continues, we will likely see more and more terrorist threats around the world, even within our nation's borders. Let's pray for a swift and decisive end to the conflict in the Middle East, and let's pray for protection [of] every American citizen! Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
