The Former U.S.S.R.
Notice I used the adjective “former” to describe the U.S.S.R. President Putting of Russia is trying to rebuild it.
(the following quote is from the Prophetic Messenger March/April 2015 - Is Russia Rebuilding The Former Soviet Union? - Part III)
In another article titled “Putin’s Push to Reinstate Soviet Power Will Grow, ex-CIA Chief Says” it says
“The former top CIA official is warning that even if Russian President Vladimir Putin were to measurably tone down his expansionist rhetoric in the near term, his push to grow Russia’s influence over former Soviet states ‘seems only to have just begun.’ ‘Even if we see a quieter Putin in the coming weeks and months, we’ll do well to remember the size of his arsenal and the scope of his ambitions,’ John E. McLaughlin, deputy CIA director under former President George W. Bush, wrote in an article published Thursday. Mr. McLaughlin, who also briefly served as the agency’s acting director in 2004, says recent moves by NATO to protect Eastern Europe from Russian military aggression ‘may be too conventional to thwart Putin’s ‘hybrid warfare’ strategy, which subtly combines special forces, cyber tactics, propaganda, media control, mainline troops and manipulative public statements.’ Following Russia’s March 2014 annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula, the Obama administration has successfully led an effort to level U.S. and European Union economic sanctions against Moscow — a tactic designed to pressure Mr. Putin away from using his so-called hybrid strategy to absorb a wider swath of Ukraine. . . . One imagines the Baltic member states — Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia — tempt [Mr. Putin],” Mr. McLaughlin wrote. ‘In Estonia, for example, the economically depressed city of Narva on the Russian border is 80 percent ethnic Russian, and 36 percent already hold Russian passports.’ ‘It would not be hard for Putin to add fuel to already resentful citizens’ grievances there — they have to learn Estonian to qualify for citizenship or state jobs — and claim a need to ‘help’ them on humanitarian grounds.’”

Memory Verses
As Christians if we want to live in victory and if we want to be able to share the Word Of God with others we must know the Word of God ourselves. Let's see what the Bible says about this. "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." Psalm 119:11. "If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you." John 15:7. "Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed." John 8:31. We encourage you to put the following scriptures in your heart: Matthew 27:62, Ecclesiastes 8:1, I Kings 18:46, Romans 2:11, Proverbs 29:17, Deuteronomy 28:49, Proverbs 17:26, Luke 6:46, Daniel 7:17 John 1:3.
