Pray with the global church

God of All Comfort, we bring Ribah in Kebbi State before You in the wake of this tragedy. Lives have been taken, families are broken, and fear has settled over this community. Shelter them beneath Your wings, and be near to those grieving deep losses. Restrain the hand of violence that seeks to claim more lives, and reveal the strength of Jesus to those who dwell in terror's shadow. Let not the darkness prevail — speak peace into their turmoil, and deliver those taken captive. Reveal Your justice and mercy to the perpetrators; meet them with the same grace that turned Saul from persecutor to Apostle. May Your light break forth like the dawn across this region. For the sake of Your kingdom and through Christ our Lord. Amen.
