300 Killed, 30,000 Displaced in Mangu, Nigeria

Over the past month, Fulani terrorists murdered 300 Christians, destroyed 28 church buildings and 2,000 houses, displaced 30,000 people from their homes and looted 150 trailer loads of grain in Mangu County, Plateau State, Nigeria. (See the full Morning Star News story here.)

Lord, please comfort those who mourn, heal the bodies and minds of every survivor of these horrific attacks, and provide for all their needs. Speak tenderly to their broken spirits. Conquer devastating memories with the healing power of Your love and grace. Father, have mercy. Change the tide of violence in Nigeria. In this most deadliest place in the world for Christians, we speak, “LIFE, in the name of Jesus!” Protect the innocent. Bring every persecutor to their knees before You, as You did Paul, and show them who You are. Haunt their dreams, visit them throughout the day, topple the lies they believe with Truth, and show Yourself strong on behalf of victims in such miraculous ways that every violent offender will tremble in fear, drop their weapons and fists, and repent, surrendering to Your love and salvation. Be a Shield around every believer, guarding them and their families from harm. Empower them by Your Spirit to speak Truth and act in love, joy, peace, forgiveness and faith, with a demonstration of Your power, as You perform miracles and wonders in the sight of their persecutors and leave crowds in awe of You. Heal the sick, the lame, the wounded, the blind. Raise the dead to life. When guns or other weapons are aimed at Christians, cause them to misfire and drop to the ground. When fists or feet are lifted to beat or kick a believer, freeze them in place so the persecutor is unable to move and must ask the Christian to pray for them first before they are freed. Send shockingly visible angels to surround every believer and step in front of them, blocking enemy attacks. Turn every curse spoken against a Christian into a blessing instead, and bring such disastrous events into the lives of persecutors that they know beyond any doubt You are the One who protected that Christian, and that only in surrender to You will we find Life. Move as never before in Nigeria, O God. Awaken every heart to Your love. Bring witchdoctors to faith in You, leading whole villages to burn their fetishes and choose You as Lord. Break the power of demons over every life, Jesus, so those who have lived in fear will now hunger for You and seek You desperately until they find You. Lift the veil from their eyes, break their bonds, set them free from the enemy’s clutches, so they can see You as You truly are, choose to worship You alone as God, and finally live the abundant life they were created for. John 10:10. Raise up a generation holy unto You of preachers and missionaries who will take Your Good News into every dark corner of Africa and beyond, penetrating the darkness with Light and changing lives forever with Your love.
