Pray with the global church

God of Peace and Protector of the weak, we lift up the Irigwe communities in Plateau State facing the threat of violence. You are a refuge and strength for those in distress, a fortress in times of trouble. Guard these villages under the shadow of Your wings, and let fear be dispelled by Your presence. Restrain those who plot evil, turning them from paths of violence to the way of peace. Reveal Jesus to both the anxious and the aggressors, that hearts may turn to seek reconciliation and peace. Sustain the believers in this region with courage and unshakable faith, that they may shine as lights in the darkness. All authority and peace are Yours, now and forever, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
