Pray with the global church

God of All Comfort, we lift up the women in Shiroro and surrounding communities who suffer under the weight of unspeakable violence. You see their tears and hear their cries; not one is hidden from Your sight. Reach into their pain, binding up the wounds that others intend for harm, and turn despair into hope. Reveal Jesus as the light to the oppressors who walk in darkness, that they may find forgiveness and new life. Strengthen Your church in Niger State, equipping them with love and courage amidst threats. Let Your righteousness shine like the dawn over these lands. We ask this, trusting that You, the God of all comfort, will act for Your glory. Amen.
