Israel, Egypt and Assyria - a blessing on the earth

Did you know that Middle Eastern Muslims are turning to the Lord in droves because of dreams and visions? Shine FM posted an article from Mission Network News today, giving a few more details on what's happening there. I find all of this interesting in light of Isaiah 19:19-25. The chapter deals with God's judgment on Egypt, but true to His nature, He concludes that message with grace... and a promise. He declares that Israel, Egypt and Assyria will worship Him together and be a blessing on the earth. Take a look at the map; it's roughly a combination of these areas then and now (the highlighted portion being Assyria, Israel and Egypt). God is fulfilling that promise. Read a few of their stories, and the doom and gloom in the news pales in comparison. God's kingdom is being built!
On the other hand, there is severe persecution in these areas. These Muslim background believers need our love, support and prayers. Find out how God is working right now to fulfill His promise to the Middle East. Read detailed stories of God's hand at work. There's a special this month on some great resources. Watch http://www.persecution.tv/ to see videos of those who have come to Christ and are serving Him there. Go to http://www.persecution.net/ and learn all you can, then take some time to be the expression of Christ's love.
