God of Truth, we lift up Nigeria as the court reopens the appeal for the Madalla Christmas Day church bomber. Many survivors still carry wounds and sorrow fifteen years on, while answers remain elusive. In their cries for justice and healing, reveal Jesus as the One who binds up the brokenhearted and restores what the locusts have eaten. Restore hope to displaced families and those searching for missing loved ones. Sustain Your people in Nigeria, and move among officials and leaders with truth and righteousness, that they might govern with integrity. Let forgiveness and justice meet in Your presence, that all might see Jesus as Lord. In the name of Christ, our Shepherd and Healer. Amen.
