Pray with the global church

God of strength and endurance, bring healing and restoration to Nigeria in the wake of the recent abductions. You have seen the suffering of Your people and heard their cries; You are near to the brokenhearted and save those crushed in spirit. Strengthen the mother who escaped with her children, and let Your healing flow through her body and spirit. Reveal Jesus to the Fulani militants and to all who perpetuate violence, that they might encounter the One who brings true peace. Sustain the churches across Nigeria as they gather in faith, and let Your light shine through the darkness. For the glory of Your name, we trust in Your unfailing love and commit these prayers into Your hands. Amen.
