Pray with the global church

Most High God, we lift the people of Gwoza and the Christian refugees in Pulka before You as violence threatens their hope. You are their refuge and stronghold, a shelter from the storm and a shield against the threats around them. Guard these families who fear "convert or face attack" threats, and surround them with peace that passes understanding even when safety feels distant. Break the power of those sowing terror, dismantle their plans, and let mercy overcome enmity. Reveal Jesus to members of Boko Haram and ISWAP — hearts that wage war can still find grace. Let Your presence be their light in darkness and lead many to salvation in Nigeria. To You belong deliverance, strength, and glory forever. We trust Your will to prevail, Amen.
