Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Comfort, we lift up the grieving communities of BinPer Bwai in Plateau State, Nigeria, where violence has claimed many lives. You see the cries of those in anguish and are near to the brokenhearted. Establish Your peace in this land, where fear and sorrow have taken deep root. Strengthen the church in Mangu to stand firm in faith and love, even as they mourn. Dismantle the schemes of those who bring violence, and reveal Jesus to the attackers and those in authority, that they may turn from darkness to light. Let Your righteousness and peace embrace this community, overcoming the shadow of death. For the glory of Your name and the healing of this land, we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen.
