Under Communism, for years she prayed without hope for a church. In Romanian language and songs.  

A Marine with two purple hearts. He was wounded twice in two separate engagements in Vietnam. The second one almost cost him his life, and God looked down from heaven and said, "I want to use you." 

      “Burlington Tent Revival” It began in May with a revival service led by evangelist C.T. Townsend at New Hope Baptist Church, pastored by Randy Hobbs and ended on July 29 after 11 weeks of services in Burlington, North Carolina. The meetings were extended and eventually moved into a large tent where there were two services a day, Monday through Friday. Many thousands attended.

The Church That Was Started in a Welding Shop. At first a few men met for prayer after work, and it grew from there.

As a baby they threw him against the wall, broke 17 bones, tried to drown him, and as a small boy he endured aftereffects, but God used him.

“For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.” (I Corinthians 1:26-29) 

A sailor right out of boot camp starts a Bible study on an aircraft carrier and even some of the officers came.  

I knocked on the door of a man who had literally lost all hope. He had been a naval officer in the Vietnamese navy and his boat patrolled the Mekong Delta. When Saigon fell (Ho Chi Minh City) he fled to the USA awaiting his wife and two sons to join him. It took much longer than he thought...

The Red Sea crossing by Israel was in front of the Sphinx and Great Pyramid. Yes, it was “Yam Suf” and yes it was deep water, Isaiah 51:10 “[T]he waters of the great deep...”

The Bible says Israel’s Exodus from Egypt was from the west side of the Nile. (Isaiah 11:15-16). As does Flavius Josephus (1st century Jewish historian) Antiquities, II, 15, 1. And Artapanus (Jewish historian, 3rd–2nd century BC) also has Israel leaving from the west side of the Nile, Praeparatio Evangelica (IX, 27).

The Dead Sea Scrolls, the Genesis Apocryphon (2nd–1st century BC): “I proceeded by the Red Sea until I reached the extension of the Reed Sea which goes out from the Red Sea, and then I turned southward, until I reached the Gihon River….” (“Nile”, “Pyramid”, and “Sphinx”, are not Egyptian but Greek names. Ancient Jewish writers call the Nile, “Gihon”.) The person in this account was already on the “Red Sea” and goes to the “extension” of it, which he calls the “Reed Sea,” and then to the Nile, or “Gihon.” He is telling us that in his day the Red Sea was connected to the Nile by the Reed Sea. Modern Egyptians commonly call the Nile River “El-Bahr” = The Sea.

Legends of the Jews, when speaking of the ark of baby Moses that Miriam put in the Nile, said it was the Red Sea. “And then she abandoned the ark on the shores of the Red Sea” (vol. II, Moses Rescued from the Water). Babylonian Talmud (3rd century AD) also believed the placement of Moses’s ark was in the “Yam Suf” (Sotah 12a). The ancient Targums, Jonathan and Jerusalem (Aramaic translations of the Pentateuch), both connect the Nile to the Red Sea/Yam Suph: “and the Gihon had carried into the sea of Suph….”
