Main Scripture
Ephesians 6:18-23| Hebrews 13:3
This week we turn our focus to bring special awareness on the global crisis that is the persecution of our Christian brothers and sisters. This Sunday is the International Day Of Prayer for the Persecuted. Christianity is the most persecuted religion on the planet. Since bringing this message, I received and email clarifying that the number of Christians murdered for their faith since January 1st of this year is now around 11,700.
This week pastor Sam shines a light of awareness to the genocide of Christians happening right now, in Nigeria. Nigeria accounts for 70% of all the persecution happening against Christians in the world. This year alone in Nigeria:
- 7,000 Christians have been murdered.
- 4,000+ Christians have been abducted and held for ransom.
- Over 5 million have been displaced.
- On Father’s Day 210 Christians were murdered in one village alone.
Join us this week as we prayer for our persecuted family. Prayer is the 7th piece of the Full Armor of God, and it is powerful. Listen to the stories of those who are suffering for their faith. Be encouraged by their stubbornly-surrendered passion for Jesus. Be inspired by how the Gospel is spreading the fastest in these place where persecution is the greatest. Watch Now and be encouraged!
