Oil Prices Spike as Threats Grow at the Strait of Hormuz

Faith Facts:

• We see how security in the Strait of Hormuz matters for stability, trade, and families worldwide.
• Recent disruptions can lift oil prices, raising costs for food and everyday necessities.
• Conflict pressures in the region can also affect supplies tied to agriculture and future harvests.

Iran has launched Operation Epic Fury, aggressively targeting the Strait of Hormuz to hold the global economy hostage through maritime terrorism.

As a vital chokepoint for 20% of the world’s petroleum, this Iranian aggression represents a direct assault on the stability of nations and the livelihoods of families everywhere.

President Trump is rightfully demanding that international allies share the burden of securing these waters, refusing to let America carry the cost alone.

This conflict serves as a test of resolve against a regime that has functioned as a primary state sponsor of terror for decades.

We must pray for a swift restoration of order and for leaders to act with the courage necessary to end Iran’s reign of terror.

Our nation stands at a crossroads where we must defend the principles of freedom and justice against those who seek to use chaos as a political weapon.
