Nigeria: The most dangerous country in the world to be a Christian. - Part 2

 

SPECIAL MEDIA PRESENTATION
Second of a Two-Part Series

 

VOMC's production team has filmed on location in Nigeria a special two-part "Persecution & Prayer Alert" video series. We now invite you to view the second part of this informative series. (To watch the previous week's video presentation, and/or to explore published written reports addressing persecution in Nigeria, visit our country report.)
 

Stephen Wesley is teaching a class in Nigeria.


The focus of this week's video presentation shifts to the vital need for unity among members of the Nigerian church, where a divide has emerged between persecuted believers in the north and the more prosperous Christian communities in the south. Encouragingly, some church leaders in the south are beginning to recognize this separation and, as a result, are calling for greater solidarity and support for fellow Nigerian believers who are suffering horrific abuses for their faith.

Stephen Wesley, VOMC's Director for Global Education and Discipleship, leads us in prayer for healing, love and unity to take place among the body of Christ in what is statistically known as Africa's most populous nation. Please join us in this special time of intercession as we prayerfully uphold our Nigerian brothers and sisters in Christ.

  • Pray that the Holy Spirit will move powerfully among members of the Nigerian church – spanning across all regions, denominations and backgrounds – so that followers of Jesus throughout the country will unite together in love, humility and purpose.
  • Please remember the grieving families of those who have been tragically slain because of their faith in Christ, asking that they would tangibly experience the great comfort of the Lord's abiding presence with them.
  • Continue to pray that the peace of God would reign – not only within the hearts of His people in Nigeria but also throughout the nation as a whole.
