Flooding in Nigeria: 603 Dead

Posted byMikaela Vincent, Author, More Than A Conqueror Books, www.MoreThanAConquerorBooks.comPosted inPray for the worldTags:, ,

Deaths due to floods in Nigeria have doubled from last month’s 300 to now more than 600, with 2,407 people injured (up from 500 last month) and 1.3 million displaced (up from 100,000). About 82,000 homes have been destroyed and 108,000 hectares of farmland damaged, increasing concerns over rising food shortages.

Father, please have mercy. Help those who are trapped and in need of rescue. When they cry out to You, answer them in mighty ways so that they know it is You. Provide shelter, food and clean water for those who have been displaced and others who are in need. Bring Christians quickly to their aid to show them Your love and to share Your Good News with the lost, praying for their healing and offering comfort to those who mourn. Provide so miraculously for those in need that they will know it is You and feel drawn to You. Give every person affected by these floods such a hunger for You they will seek You with all their hearts and find You. Bless Christians so abundantly they will gladly share of their provisions with those in need and use the opportunity to gently lift those who are hurting up into Your arms so You can carry them through this hard time. Father, Muslims in this country have long terrorized Christians. Please use this time of need and suffering to turn their hearts from violence to humbly seek You. May they see Your love in the Christians who are sharing of their possessions with others, and feel drawn to You at last. Tear down every barrier. Lift the veil from their eyes so they can see You as You truly are and surrender to You. Awaken Nigeria to You, O God. Awaken the lost to Your salvation, and those who are saved to more and more of Your love flowing through them. Multiply Your church by the thousands, Lord, and bring about a great revival in Nigeria and beyond. Awaken every heart to the wonders of Your love. Bring from out of this tragedy something good and for Your glory. As You rebuild the country after the floods, and provide for those in need, may Your name be praised in every home and village. In Your name, Jesus. Amen.
