112 Years Ago Today, ‘O Holy Night’ Was The First Song Ever To Be Broadcast Over The Radio By Canadian Inventor Reginald Fessenden On Christmas Eve
What was the first sound to go out over radio waves? It was “O Holy Night,” the Christmas hymn, played on a violin by Canadian inventor Reginald Fessenden.
What was the first sound to go out over radio waves? It was the sound of “O Holy Night,” the Christmas hymn, being played on a violin by Canadian inventor Reginald Fessenden.
There was a day in America where people put God first, and He was ever close to the hearts and in the thoughts of most people. When Samuel Morse was inventing the telegraph, the first words he ever typed into his new machine was “what hath God wrought?” Likewise, when Canadian inventor Reginald Fessenden was inventing broadcast AM radio on December 24, 1906, he sent over the radio waves a bible verse from Luke 2, and on his violin he played the Christmas hymn “O Holy Night”.
“And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” Luke 2:10-14 (KJV)
In the transition from the 19th to the 20th centuries, God blessed America with an outpouring of knowledge and inventions such like this world has ever seen. Those things gave America unprecedented wealth and world power that exists to this day. But somewhere along the way, America has forgotten to honor the God that had blessed them so mighty. In 2018, wishing someone a ‘Merry Christmas‘ is akin to hate speech, and Santa Claus has replaced Jesus Christ as the reason for the season.
America is not a theocracy, and we don’t rule from the bible. But our Founding Fathers made sure to include God every step of the way, imperfect as it may have been. If only we would remember Who it is that has blessed us and sustains our being. Reginald Fessenden invented broadcast radio, and on his very first transmission he gave glory to the God of Abraham.
On this Christmas night, as the darkness from the coming end times rushes at us from all directions, look up and listen. The Master is coming in the clouds as He has promised, and it won’t be long now.
“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20 (KJV)
112 Years Ago Today, “O Holy Night” First Song Broadcast Over Radio Waves
FROM PULPIT & PEN: On December 24, 1906, the first radio broadcast was made over what was then brand new technology. Reginald Fessenden was a Canadian-born inventor who did most of his work in the United States. He built a system of wireless transmission using amplitude modulation (AM).
During that first broadcast over radio, Fessenden also played the Christian song, Adore and be Still by Gounod, and finished by a closing Scripture, Luke 2:14, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” Some accounts recall Handel’s song, Ombra mai fu, being played as well.
Radio is widely regarded as the single greatest and most influential medium in the history of the world, even more so than television and – believe it or not – even the Internet. Radio certainly deserves the award for longest lasting non-written medium. No other medium besides print – which is quickly dying before our eyes – has so largely impacted human civilization as has radio.
From AM to FM, short-wave to even pirate, various forms of radio communication has connected the world, combined continents, reached into fascist regimes, spread democracy and most importantly, spread the gospel. Walls and censors cannot stop it. Long distances cannot readily impede it. It is a form of communication that truly was, and continues to be, revolutionary.
Two millennia ago, the Son of God came into the world and was born in a stable and laid in a manger. Three astronomers pursued him from the East to welcome him (they made it late) and that night, but that night, the only welcome party to Christ were a few lowly shepherds who were tending their sheep by night.
The angels came to those lowly shepherds and and sang the words of Luke 2:14. Few heard it that night. It was a humbling way for the Christ child to enter the world. The news of this baby’s birth would grow throughout the world, and continue to expand, well after that baby’s eventually death and resurrection.
How sweet is it, how surreal, that the first sound going out over the greatest form of broadcast media in world history, would be heralding the birth of this newborn king.
O holy night! the stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope – the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees!
O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Donald Trump Didn’t Finish The Job As Iran’s IRGC Boasts That Surviving America’s Attacks Has Opened The Door For Islam To Rise Up And Rule The World
President Trump started a war with Iran that remains wholly unfinished, and that is allowing Tehran to turn defeat into a resounding victory that is energizing them
The fact that Iran’s top military commander Ahmad Vahidi can stand before the Islamic world and boast that Tehran has brought the United States “to its knees” tells you everything you need to know about President Trump’s claim that America had “finished the job.” The job was not finished. Iran was hit, Iran was damaged and Iran was bloodied, but the Islamic regime was left standing—and now it is transforming survival into victory. President Trump has put America in a very dangerous position by not eliminating the Iranian regime, and it is already coming back to haunt him.
“And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.” Zechariah 14:9 (KJB)
Ahmad Vahidi is not speaking like the commander of a defeated nation, he is speaking like the leader of an emboldened Islamic revolution. He is openly declaring that Iran’s battlefield performance proves “Islam can be made to rule the world.” Those are not the words of a government that has been neutralized. Those are the words of a regime that believes it endured America’s best shot and lived to continue the war. Trump attacked Iran’s military machinery but left the revolutionary engine running. The IRGC still commands, the missiles are still flying, and the Strait of Hormuz remains a battlefield. American forces and Gulf infrastructure remain under attack. Tehran’s Islamic leadership remains in power, issuing threats, preaching conquest and promising the arrival of worldwide Islamic government. That is not mission accomplished, that’s an unfinished war.
Iran does not need to defeat the United States conventionally to claim victory. It only needs to survive. Every additional day the regime remains standing allows Tehran to tell the Muslim world that the Great Satan attacked with everything it had and failed to destroy the Islamic Republic. Vahidi is already turning that survival into a recruiting message for jihadists, militias and Islamic revolutionaries around the world. This is the price of fighting a war halfway. Infrastructure can be rebuilt. Missile launchers can be replaced. Nuclear facilities can be reconstructed underground. Commanders can be promoted to replace those who were killed. As long as the Islamic regime and the IRGC remain intact, the threat remains intact. From a military persepctive, that spells potential disaster for America.
READ THIS: Understanding The Muslims Plan For World Dominance Through Islam And Sharia Law
Iran’s leaders are not hiding their objective, they are proclaiming it before the entire world. Islamic rule, Islamic conquest and the overthrow of the existing world order. Tehran believes this war has opened the gates for a global Islamic uprising. America’s political leaders should listen carefully, because Iran is telling us exactly what it intends to do. Trump did not finish the job, he postponed the next phase of it. Iran will rebuild, rearm and return unless the Islamic Republic is permanently dismantled. Anything less merely gives Tehran time to prepare for the next round while presenting its survival as proof that Allah has delivered America into its hands. President Trump, do your job and finish this war with military victory. Anything less is unacceptable, and unAmerican.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Flock Safety Cameras Are Building a Nationwide Surveillance Grid And American Citizens Have Begun To Fight Back
Flock Safety Cameras Are Building a Nationwide Surveillance Grid That Tracks Innocent Americans While Government Sells Mass Monitoring as Public Safety and Protection
Flock Safety tells Americans that its cameras are about stolen cars, missing children and public safety, but the system records every passing vehicle whether the driver is suspected of a crime or not. Your license plate, vehicle description, location, direction and time of travel are captured, stored and made searchable across a growing network of police departments and government agencies. That is not simply a camera watching an intersection—it is a digital memory capable of reconstructing where ordinary citizens go, when they go there and how often they return. Public safety may be the sales pitch, but mass collection is the product.
“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.” Proverbs 15:3 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the most dangerous part of this system is not what a trustworthy sheriff might do with it today, but what an unaccountable government could do with it tomorrow. Databases built to find car thieves can just as easily identify people attending churches, political rallies, gun shows, medical offices or protests during the next manufactured emergency. Flock cameras are not the mark of the beast, and Bible believers should not confuse modern surveillance technology with the literal fulfillment of Revelation 13. But they are helping construct the culture and infrastructure the coming beast system will require: universal observation, centralized information, artificial-intelligence profiling and a population trained to surrender privacy whenever the government whispers the word “safety.” This is how freedom disappears—not always through soldiers in the streets, but through cameras on poles, databases in the cloud and citizens who insist they have nothing to hide. The issue is not whether these cameras can solve crimes; the issue is whether every innocent American should be tracked like a potential suspect without a warrant, public consent or meaningful accountability. Demand strict limits, short retention periods, transparent audits, real penalties for abuse and judicial oversight before this surveillance grid becomes too large to restrain. The camera may not be the beast, but the Beast architecture is being assembled one pole, one database and one emergency at a time. The Countdown continues toward the rise of the New World Order.

Pastor Dancan Just Sent A Very Heartfelt Message Of Gratitude To Operation Africa! And The Entire NTEB Family For Our Willingness To Be Used Of God
God is using each and every one in our NTEB family to work a mighty miracle for Pastor Dancan and the orphans in Kisii, Kenya through Operation Africa!
Operation Africa! has been going at full-speed the last many months, working to accomplish in Kisii, Kenya, what I can only call a true miracle in our midst, and a powerful testimony of what God can accomplish through the body of Christ when we yield ourselves to His will. In 1872, evangelist D.L .Moody was meeting with a group of his fellow preachers as he listen to Henry Varley say these words – “The world has yet to see what God will do with and for and through and in and by the man who is fully and wholly consecrated to Him.” As those words flooded over him, Moody said within himself, “by God’s help, I aim to be that man”. Today, the NTEB family is that man, and I want to share something with you that will truly encourage you here in these last days.
“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Philippians 4:13 (KJB)
We started on this journey 3 months ago, and it began with a relatively simple request for some Bibles from Kenya. 200 Bibles became 400, then 600, then a thousand, and then a little over 1,100. The sudden appearence of the preserved word of God in a place where it had not previously existed sparked revival, and Pastor Dancan’s church grew by 30% within weeks. I began to disciple him, teaching him right division of the scripture, sending books he needed for his spiritual education. Then I noticed the smiles had left the children’s faces, malaria and typhoid from drinking river water had sickened them. So we sent enough medicine to heal all 84 orphans. To solve the river water problem, we sent a 10,000 liter water tank, and filled it twice with clean drinking water. After that, we built them a well, 60 feet into the earth, hooked it up to the water tank, and solved their water problem. No more malaria and typhoid, but then we found out about their sleeping condition. Cardboard on a dirt floor and bedbugs that left welts on their little bodies. We purchased the proper chemicals to kill the bedbugs, threw away the cardboard, and gave each and every orphan a brand-new mattress with a nice, clean blanket. The photo at the top of this article shows you some of the new bedding. This morning, Pastor Dancan sent me a message that brought tears to my eyes, and I want to share it with all of you.
He writes – “Pastor, words cannot fully express how grateful we are for everything you all have done for our orphanage and our church. In just a few months of knowing you, we have witnessed a transformation that we never imagined possible.
Our orphanage has changed tremendously. The children have experienced love, hope, care, and a brighter future because of your kindness and generosity. Things that once seemed impossible are now becoming a reality before our eyes.
You have not only supported us financially; you have touched lives, restored hope, and reminded us that God can send the right people at the right time. Every time we look at the children, we can see the impact of your love and sacrifice.
Pastor, we may never have enough words to thank you. What you all have done for us will forever remain in our hearts. We pray that God continues to bless you, strengthen you, and multiply everything you have given to others. We are truly grateful, and we thank God for bringing you into our lives. ❤️🙏”
For everyone who prays for Operation Africa!, he wrote that letter to you. For everyone who donates any amount, large or small, he wrote that letter to you. Pastor Dancan, his entire congregation, everyone of those orphans and everyone who lives in his town have watched God do a miracle in their midst. You talk about a testimony of the power of God to do the impossible through the body of Christ, there it is. Thanks to each and everyone one of you in our NTEB family, this work continues in Operation Africa!, the Gospel Witness Billboard Program, the Free Bible Program and Bibles Behind Bars. Please keep all of this in your prayers as the Lord brings it to your remembrance, and come help us to finish strong. We need you!!
