- Three north-eastern states in Nigeria are under a state of emergency amid an Islamist insurgency by the Boko Haram group. Boko Haram is fighting to overthrow Nigeria\’s government to create an Islamic state and has launched a number of attacks on schools, churches, government offices, homes, police and army institutions. Many people have been killed, maimed and a lot of people are now refugees in their own country.
- Pray for the healing of individuals and families that suffered losses, businesses that were affected, employers and employees that have lost their means of livelihood because of the insurgency of this group.
- Pray that the Holy Spirit who comforts will raise people and situations that will hasten the healing process.
- Proclaim 2 Tim 1:7 – Pray against fear that comes upon a territory when evil events take place. Pray against the spirit of fear among the people for that is bondage to terrorists.
- Pray that the Holy Spirit will brood over the nation and release a spirit of power, love and a sound mind shielded from deep traumatic effects of the events.
