Pray with the global church

Lord of Hosts, we lift before You the embattled communities of Adamawa State where soldiers have once again defended against violence. In the face of threats and suffering, You are their refuge and shield. Sustain the hearts of believers in Nigeria whose villages stand on the frontline of aggression, and let their faith hold fast amidst such trials. Quiet the chaos brought by those who seek to destroy, and reveal Jesus even to the attackers that they may be turned from darkness into light. Guard these troops in their mission to protect others, and let Your peace take root in every community. For the glory of Your name and Your Kingdom's advance in this troubled land, we ask this through Christ our Redeemer. Amen.
