FEAR Extinguishers (DAY 23) - Holy Week adventures
Holy Week has begun and we had the chance today on a long prayer walk to encourage a number of Christians who can't attend services this week. And with the Muslims and Hindus we met, we got to pray for them and tell some of them that this was a special week for Christians before our most important Holiday (HOLY Day)!
Again we had so many opportunities to naturally pray for people, doing so without violating anyone's personal space.
We engaged people in public on a walking path and in a couple of restaurants we stopped in on our way home.
With one Egyptian muslim man after praying for him, I got to show him a video of Fr. Makary (a Coptic priest) praying and he already knew about him!
May Christians open their eyes to people around them - many are fearful and no one we are meeting hasn't appreciated the prayers we are praying - for protection, for financial provision, for ongoing job security, for their families back in their home countries, for deliverance from fear!
This is the hour for Christians to BE CHRISTIAN! WWJD?? He would surely be busy in these days as a "fear extinguisher"! And so must we.
...for such a time as this!
