為埃及禱告 Egypt is Bleeding

转:埃及弟兄姐妹紧急代祷:亲爱的朋友我想与你分享这样你就可以为我们祷告。
 
今天,埃及局势已变得非常困难。7点钟,警察部队接管了广场,穆斯林兄弟会的支持者在露营。因此,所有的穆斯林狂热分子在全国非常生气,开始攻击警察局和教堂。 许多教会都被烧毁了。 在Dirmawas,他们烧了15种不同的基督徒经营的商店。
 
我能听到在街上的猛烈的枪炮声,我被囚禁在我的房子和所有的基督徒都是相同的方式。我们不能出去在街上因为穆斯林狂热分子是攻击任何他们在街上看到的基督徒。我并不害怕,但我希望情况将很快结束,因为它是每况愈下每过一个小时。我们在Assyut教堂受到攻击,到现在为止他们已经烧毁了5个不同的厄尔Minia城市的教堂和一个大的基督教学校。骚乱仍在继续。我们的FM在Assyut教会遭到袭击,他们烧毁巴士和书店以及圣经公会。我们需要你的祷告。
 
请分享你认识的每一位弟兄姐妹,让我们携手同心哭求我们的天父 ,对于基督教和实玛利的儿子应回到天父的心,而不是仇恨落入撒旦的陷阱”愿世界和平,愿主的慈爱住在被他所造的的每一个他自己的子民心中。!阿门!启6:11……,又有话对他们说:“还要安息片时,等着一同作仆人的和他们的弟兄,也像他们被杀,满足了数目。”弟兄姊妹们,我们的手或脚正在被烈火焚烧的患难中,你却不能说没感觉到疼痛所以不必代祷,求主向埃及同工肢体们伸出医治安慰的手,奉主耶稣的名求,阿们!


SANTA ANA, Calif., Aug. 15, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- 
The following analysis about the horrific violence across Egypt was written by a Christian leader in Egypt. He is unnamed due to security concerns:
    The words are heavy to put together this morning. The sad day of yesterday (Aug. 14) resulted in a sleepless night not only for me, but also for millions of Christian and Muslim Egyptians who love this country and genuinely seek its good and welfare. It was a day of many tears, pain and agony for what Egypt witnessed for the violence that resulted. According to the official report of the Egyptian Ministry of Health, there were 235 deaths and 2,001 injuries. The number of casualties and injuries reported by the Muslim Brotherhood and promoted by Al-Jazeera and other Muslim Brotherhood-supporting media channels are of course much higher.
    This is not the time to sit to at a discussion table to decide who is right and who is wrong or what should or should not have been done in the first place. The issue now is not either to decide whether Muslim Brotherhood protesters who were forced to leave Rabaa-el Adawia and Nahda Squares (where they have camped and blocked the streets for the last 45 days) were peaceful protestors who had a legitimate political case to defend or were not. I can pretty much go further to say that it's not even the time to weep over tens of churches, Christian buildings, schools, Bible bookshops, shops and houses of Christians that have never systematically been targeted, looted, attacked or burnt down like what happened yesterday in Minya, Assiut, Sohag and several other cities.
    The murder last week of the 10-year-old girl, Jessica Boulos, as she was walking back home from her Bible study class at one of Cairo's evangelical churches by a fanatic Muslim gunman is unbearable and continues to throw it's shadows of pain on her broken family and the entire Christian community of Egypt.
    In all of this mess, the loss of church buildings is great, but not to be compared with the loss of the many souls, the pains of the wounds and the fear and anxiety that have filled the hearts of all that can yet happen in Egypt today and the days to come. Buildings can eventually be re-built, but when lost, souls can never be restored.
    It was announced last night by our interim President Adly Mansour for Egypt to follow the emergency law for one month. Fourteen governorates (including Cairo, the capital) are now under curfew from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. after the numerous attacks of the Muslim Brotherhood on public services buildings and private properties. 
    We see and hear angry Muslim Brotherhood members coming on TV screens threatening to burn Egypt down entirely to form what is so called "Egypt's free army" and fight against the current army to accelerate the battle with the Jihadists in Sinai and that Egyptians will not be able to sleep until former president Morsi is back into office.
    Please continue to pray for my country. Those are the hardest days we've ever witnessed. The peaceful Egypt is now soaked into violence, hatred and desire to revenge. My heart and the hearts of millions of Christian and Muslim Egyptians are bleeding as we see Egypt turning into a strange country we've never knew before.
    Please pray for:
    • Peace to come back to our cities
       
    • Wisdom to Egyptian police and army forces as they handle the major upcoming security issues that are facing them
       
    • Tremendous power of love and forgiveness to fall on the hearts of the Christians as we seek to follow to the teachings of Jesus to pray for our attackers and persecutors and forgive them
       
    • The voice of reason to come back to the crowds of Muslim Brotherhood protestors so the brainwashed followers may stop, think and follow the sound of reason, not the orders of deceiving leadership
    •  
    "Ya Rab" (my Lord) save Egypt from evil!
