CSW reported that 10 people, including 3-yr old Elizabeth Samaila, were killed in an early morning attack in the Tudun Agwalla community in Kajuru, Kaduna state, which is a Christian community in the North West of Nigeria. All 10 were hacked to death by extremists wielding machetes.
Attacks against Christians did not stop despite the lockdown on March 25th due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, a total of about 620 Christians have been killed by extremists in the first 5 months of this year according to a CBN News report.
Please pray for our brethren in Nigeria who are living in uncertainty and constant fear of unprovoked attacks.
Pray that they will draw strength from the Lord and be empowered through intimacy with God (Eph 6:10), and even though they walk through the valley of the shadow of death, they will fear no evil because they know God is with them and His rod and staff will comfort and console (Ps 23:4) (AMP).
Pray that the gospel message will continue to spread and touch many lives in Nigeria. Pray that the truths of the gospel will set people free to love and accept others just as Jesus loved and accepted us.
