Pray that the Lord raises up a Joseph for Egypt, He did it before He can do it again

Situation in Egypt is rapidly disintegrating


Al Jazeera has the fullest coverage of the crisis.  Here is a timeline of the rapid turn of events.

President Mubarak in Cairo on 2 Dec 2010


Not sure what you know about Egypt.  It's more than just an issue of President, bribery and corruption.

Egypt is on Israel's border and has a peace agreement with Israel.  The main opposition in Egypt is the Muslim Brotherhood.  It is strongly believed that Hamas is a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood and in control of Gaza.  Mubarak and Egypt have been helping Israel to stop arms being smuggled into Gaza.  The fall of Egypt to the Muslim Brotherhood means that Hamas now has free access in and out of Gaza.  Israeli newspaper just reported that the Muslim Brotherhood has just formed a unity government without Mubarak.

Mubarak and Netanyahu are friends.  Both are against the rising power of Islam and nuclear capability in Iran.  If Mubarak is removed, this will cut the muslim and arab opposition to Iran's nuclear aspirations.  Without Mubarak and Egypt, Israel will be left with only 2 "allies" in the middle east: Jordan and the Palestinian Authority.  Hardly good friends! - Jordan's king has refused to meet with Netanyahu, and last month the Palestinian Authority got latin american countries to recognise the independent state of Palestine with it's capital in Jerusalem!


What sparked the riots and protests?  Soaring food prices, coupled with unemployment and average daily wage less than USD6 per day.

Pray for Egypt.  Pray that the Lord raises up a deliverer for Egypt: a Joseph with Joseph solutions.  Just as the Joseph of old found a solution to the famine.  Just as the Joseph of old delivered Egypt, and not just Egypt but also Israel

A leader with deep insight and divine solutions - Genesis 41:33, 37-44
A leader acceptable to the Egyptians and favoured by them - Genesis 47:20, 
A leader who will not only deliver Egypt but also Israel - Genesis 45:5,7,8 and Genesis 50:20

Are the Queensland Floods the Result of Kevin Rudd speaking against Israel?

In December 2010, ABC news reported that Australian Foreign Minister and former Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd had spoken against Israel.  Kevin Rudd had sided with the Arabs to criticise Israel's nuclear program and urging for it to come under scrutiny.  Click link below to watch the program.


Andrew Bolt from the Herald Sun newspaper also blogged about it, hypothesizing why Kevin Rudd would do such a thing.  He speculated that Kevin Rudd was trying to win favour with the Arabs to get votes for a UN position.  Read more at the link provided.

Pastor Danny Nalliah from Catch The Fire Ministries in Melbourne, Australia on 11 January 2011 noted the spiritual ramifications of what Kevin Rudd had done.  He called upon Australians to pray and repent on behalf of Australia.  Refer to Pastor Danny's blog, click link below.  Pastor Danny also noted that Queensland, the state most badly affected by the flood, is also Kevin Rudd's home state.

Independent state of Palestine recognised, earthquakes and flooding follow!


On 2 January 2011 Haaretz reported that Chile and Paraguay and other latin american states were going to recognise the Palestinian state in the coming weeks, with the borders intact since 1967.  This puts the capital of the Palestinian state in East Jerusalem!  Haaretz also reported that Brazil and Argentina had already recognised the Palestinian state in December 2010.

The Bible says that God will curse those who curse Israel, and destroy those nations that come against Jerusalem.

Zechariah 12:3,9 “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people; And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem”.

Within days and weeks of the announcement of the recognition of the state of Palestine the following events occurred:

On 1 January 2011, a major 7.0 earthquake hit Argentina.  Click link to see USGS announcement.

On 3 January 2011, a major 7.1 earthquake hit Chile.  Click link to see USGS announcement.

On 13 January 2011, floods hit Brazil also resulting in landslides and mudslides.  Death toll exceeded 800 as at 28 January 2011 and is one of their worst disasters.  Click link below to see BBC news report on 13 January.  Disaster pictures below (many were omitted because of graphic scenes of death).

For those of you unbelievers who say that Chile and Argentina are on the pacific rim of fire and at high risk of earthquake anyway, please note that Brazil was hit by flood and not earthquake!
