Six Christians were executed by Islamic State terrorists in Democratic Republic of the Congo June 3, and eight on June 24.
A local field contact said that locals have observed the terrorist group moving their activities to other areas in order to avoid being infected by the Ebola virus, which has been spreading in the northeast of the DRC.
Please pray today for Christians in this area of the DRC who are fearing further violence. Pray especially for the families of the victims in this attack.
Open Doors Canada, Facebook, July 12
Lord, please have mercy. Bring an end to the horrific violence. Heal the wounded. Comfort those who mourn. Speak tenderly to Your people and let them feel You near. Give them Your supernatural power to forgive those who have done such terrible acts against their loved ones. Make Your love and peace so evident in Christians’ lives that persecutors will lay down their weapons and pursue Love instead. Give church leaders and members wisdom and courage as they help each other deal with trauma. Protect Christian women especially from abduction and abuse. Be a Shield around every believer in DRC. Provide for them safe places they can go to be sheltered from evil attacks. Surround them with such a powerful wall of angels that whenever those bent on evil come against them, they will see the angels, fall to their knees in fear of the You, and repent. Give every Muslim extremist such a powerful encounter with Your Son that they turn from violent paths to follow the Living God. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
