This might be slightly biased, but in my opinion prophets+assyrians>prophets+egyptians. Razor and siegeworks become twice as useful, and let's face it, I did beat you with it today. Not saying you have to, it's just that there's a reason they came together ;)
Another green enhancement you might want to add is Benaiah Snatches a Spear. CBN negate=epic. Chariots of Fire might be nice too.
And throw in Ezekiel ;)

Daniel would be useful.
Hidden Treasures is a prophets must.
And Spiritual Warfare is necessary.

Daniel kills my enhancements that I put in storehouse, and this is a speed deck

First off, Storehouse only works well if you're using full-on Genesis. It has its uses, but unless you're utilizing every single one of them, in general, it tends to be a waste of space. Take it out unless you're using a Genesis offense with Genyptians on defense. Second, Storehouse only functionless while it's negated. Daniel negates Storehouse, yes, but only for that phase. You can still take enhancements out/put them in without a problem. Third, "Prophet Speed" is an oxymoron. Prophets are, by nature, slow, unless you get Hidden Treasures and (preferably) Hur out relatively early. Using a pretty poor (for actual blocking ability) defense to try make it faster isn't a good strategy. You're better off just using a fast offense, or using a strong defense so it not being as fast won't be a problem.

He's using the classic Green speed: Hur+gifts.

Two cards hardly constitute a "speed deck".

The egyptions also draw lots of cards.

Right, at the cost of not really being much of a defense at all. I'm all for Egyptian defenses, but if you're going to go that big on the defense, you should be using a strong overall defense, like Babylonians, Assyrians, or Israelite Kings. You shouldn't be relying on your defense to generate draw abilities.

You need a Evil Spirit.

I'm planing on changing to assyrians.
