This marvelous event was mentioned on our IDOP call yesterday. Believers in Egypt believe this coukd be the start of a move of God.

Dear God just as you called you Son out of Egypt, may you call many sons and daughters out of Egypt.

Yes it is, dear brother, but it sad that it had to take a masacre when the army fired on and killed a bunch of Coptic Christians for an event like this to take place.

I guess man's nature never change. It sound like reading the history of the children of Israel all over again.

Plesase join in prayer with them that God would bring a revival to this nation.

Hello murrcolr,

Many ancient churches or monasteries in Egypt are built in caves, and are isolated, built at a time when the Christian religion was outlawed within the Roman empire in the first century.

Perhaps this picture would give you an idea.

I went back and looked at the photos of this marvelous event in the cave out of Cairo. One intriguing thing stood out. Very few of the Coptic sisters were wearing the head covering. It seems their sole purpose was to worship Jesus.

One report said that Egypt had not seen a orayer event like this in over a thousand years. Could it be our brothers and sister in Egypt are focussed on more important things.......like prayer.

And one must wonder why we do not see revival in America???????

Blaine, you must despise those of us who believe one should be obedient to ICorinthians 11...as hard as you fight this obedience. It sure would be nice to hear some love from you towards us sisters who believe this.

I grieve deeply...

God is still on the throne, do not forget that...
