Watch this video and you will know why the outcome of the Egyptian protests came out as best as it could be. For years, Egyptian Christians have been praying fervently for their nation, the Arab region and the entire world. Their regular prayer meetings usually draw 1000 people each time. Is there any wonder why God is moving so powerfully now?
Miracle on Friday, February 11th
Mubarack supporters started to attack peaceful demonstrators midway through the protests at Tahrir Square. The situation seemed bleak, as though everything would turn violent, giving Mubarack the excuse to use force. To worsen matters, a few thousand convicts were either released from jail or had escaped on their own and were causing havoc on the streets.
On Friday, February 11th, the number of protesters swelled because it was the day of worship. However, they were also most vulnerable because of it. (They prostrate themselves in prayer.) What better opportunity for the trouble-makers to cause disruption to the protests. Then the Christians took the initiative and did a most gallant thing. They held hands and formed a human protective wall around the Muslims so they could fulfil their religious obligation.
Miracle on Sunday, February 13th
The Kasr El Debora Evangelical Church is located right next to Tahrir Square. For a few weeks its 8,000 regular worshippers were not able to get to the sanctuary to pray.
On February 13th, they took the bold step of taking their worship to the Square. This would have been totally unthinkable just a month ago. In the past, this would be illegal and would draw serious and deadly consequences not only from the government but from the public. The Church thought it would take another 50 years before their dream to worship openly would become a reality, but on February 13th they took a big step of faith.
250,000 were at the Square that day, most of them Muslims. Due to the Christian gesture on February 11th, the worship went on without any disturbances. In fact, many in the Square joined in the worship, in prayers and in singing.
Miracle on Wednesday, February 16th
With this historic breakthrough, Christians invited Muslims to come to Church to pray for the nation, for peace and for the new leader. Amazingly, one thousand Muslims joined 2,500 Christians in prayer. Could we be experiencing the partial fulfilment of Isaiah 19:22-25?
22 The LORD will strike Egypt, striking but healing; so they will return to the LORD, and He will respond to them and will heal them.
23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrians will come into Egypt and the Egyptians into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 In that day Israel will be the third party with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,
25 whom the LORD of hosts has blessed, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.”
God is shaking up Egypt to call Israel to repentance, to return to Him in repentance and in trust:
For thus the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said,
“In repentance and rest you will be saved,
In quietness and trust is your strength.”
But you were not willing,
And you said, “No, for we will flee on horses,”
Therefore you shall flee!
“And we will ride on swift horses,”
Therefore those who pursue you shall be swift.
Isaiah 30:15
