Day 12
Egypt
Lord inspire the Churches to declare to the people of the nation of Egypt that God will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Cause the government to strictly enforce the approved harsher penalties for sexual harassment and related crimes and upgrade them to felony offences and curb sex-related assaults in a nation where women have long felt disadvantaged. Empower the Egyptian women activists to promote the legal amendments and initiate moves to strengthen laws protecting women in the socially conservative, Muslim-majority nation. Lord make the partnering efforts of the Egypt’s Ministry of Health and Population with the Chinese firm Sinovac as a part of Egypt’s strategy to produce the first local batch of the COVID-19 vaccine (The Bible, Isaiah 2:4).

Egypt remains the most populous country in the Arab world and holds great regional and global influence. Amid an increasingly repressive government, Egypt is terrorized by Islamic extremism. Egypt was a Majority-Christian nation and today it remains home to the Middle East’s largest body of Christians – the Coptic Church (12%). Evangelical Christianity is on the rise, though still only about 3% of the population. Yet Islam remains the state religion and the faith of 87% of its people. Though the Egyptian Church has endured persecution, recent instability and the presence of the Islamic State have intensified its suffering.
