How to Pray for Egypt

Early this morning via their Facebook page, Operation World presented one Egyptian’s nine-item list of How to Pray for Egypt:

We have just received the note below from an Egyptian friend who has been involved in the prayer ministry in Egypt, but also involved on government level. This note is really helpful to understand the situation in Egypt and helps us to pray with insight. Please read it and pray fervently for this very special nation:

"Thank you for your messages and prayers for the Nation of Egypt. I have been in a state of disbelief and a little confused and now amazed as to what is taking place.

Many have asked me how we should pray for Egypt and to be honest I was not sure. The news is conflicting at the same time the things said do not match with my knowledge and understanding of the reality of Egypt and the people.

The past two days, listening to news on Al jezeera, BBC, and talking to parents and then talking to friends…. Each one had their own analysis and view about what is going on to an extreme… Confusion, confusion, confusion…

But one thing I sensed with them and agreed on is that last Friday, evil was unleashed in Egypt.

The Protest started as [….]

So, please Pray for:

1. A peaceful transition of power. Wisdom and revelation for the leaders and to the way they address the people of Egypt.
2. A quick end to this protest and the economic crisis accumulating.
3. That the evil unleashed will hit a wall, and the plans of the enemy to start a civil confrontation will not succeed.
4. Peace and security to return to the streets of Egypt
5. A restraining of the Muslim Brotherhood and other political parties who have evil hidden agendas.
6. For the Church to have a prophetic voice at this critical time. For Wisdom and revelation from the father to speak life and revealed truth to the Church and the Nation.
7. The Church to move prophetically and know how to handle this difficult time with confidence and boldness.
8. That Egyptians will not be taken lightly or mistreated any longer.
9. That President Mubarak will leave with dignity and honor, and non of His family will be harmed.
