PRAYER REQUESTS FOR
November 14, 2025
Please pray for...
​
...protection for Christians in the Democratic Republic of Congo, especially in the eastern part of the country where Muslim groups are responsible for ongoing violence.
​
...courage for churches in Mozambique, where Christians make up 62% of the population of 34 million. Islamic terrorists randomly slaughter congregants and abduct clergy. Pastor Jonathan reports, “Yes, we are persecuted, but many Muslims are receiving Jesus.”
​
…Syrian Christians. After a recent church bombing by Muslim radicals, an elderly church-goer stated, “How can we worship when death stalks us even inside the church?”
IN THE NEWS: NIGERIA
On October 28, Nigeria suffered its first attack claimed by JNIM, the al-Qaida-linked terrorist group that is active in Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, and Benin. Militants attacked a security post in western Nigeria, killing one soldier, kidnapping another, and making off with motorcycles, ammunition, and money. This attack indicates the expansion of the group into a nation that already harbors at least 20 known terrorist groups, some just forming and some well established. At the same time, the Church in Nigeria has been strong and growing. Let’s pray for Nigeria.
​
-
Pray for God’s protection over His people. Almost 50% of Nigeria’s people claim to be Christians, and are the preferred targets of jihadist attacks. A report from Nigeria’s International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law states that from January 1–August 10, 2025, 7,000+ Christians were killed and 7,800 abducted. One pastor remarks, “At night, we pray and wish each other a good night. If we see ourselves alive in the morning we say, ‘Thank you, Jesus.’”
​
-
Pray for Nigeria’s Muslims. Most are them are moderate and are also targeted and killed by jihadists for not adhering to their radical agenda. Pray that they would begin to question Islam and seek the truth about God.
​
-
Pray for wisdom for government authorities. May the Holy Spirit move leaders to respond effectively to the plight of innocent Nigerians and their communities. May Jesus, in His mercy, reveal Himself to key leaders, that they might find new life in Him.
The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
James 5:16
Additional Prayer
Requests
BENIN: A worker asks us to pray for his nation. “The terrorist threat persists in the northwest and east of Benin, but government authorities are not speaking about it. Pastors and missionaries are fearful, and we are concerned that this threat may hinder the work in these areas.”
-
Pray that the Lord would give strength and courage to these workers, that they might in turn strengthen and encourage His people to stand firm.
-
Pray that, rather than hindering the work, this context of instability would give believers unprecedented opportunities to share their faith with their neighbors and lead many to the Prince of Peace.
-
“Pray that the current political issues will not open the door to these [Islamic] fundamentalists,” who seek to take advantage of any social unrest to further their own agenda.
PRAY FOR KIDNAPPED
MISSION PILOT
Last Tuesday (10/28) an American pilot working with a missions agency was kidnapped from his home in a “highly secure” neighborhood in the capital city of Niger. While no group has claimed responsibility, a diplomatic source noted he was likely being taken to Mali, where kidnap victims are often sold to Islamic State members. Pray for this worker’s safety and release, and for his family. Pray that Jesus would reveal himself to those involved and glorify His name.
PRAY FOR MALI
​
Please continue to intercede for this nation in the Sahel, where jihadist activity is having a growing impact on the economy, daily life, and freedom of worship. Pray that the Lord would intervene in the following situations:
​
-
This past week a Pentecostal pastor and village chief were summoned to meet with jihadists. The militants demanded that every member 18 years old and older pay 25,000 cfa (about $45) within two weeks, or the church will be closed. This practice has become increasingly common, and several Catholic and evangelical churches in the area have already closed and will be allowed to reopen only when payments are made.
​
-
Mali’s government has closed all schools and universities for the next two weeks as severe fuel shortages hamper normal commutes for teachers and students. Jihadists continue to block the main routes into Mali from Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal, preventing the passage of fuel tankers and other goods into this landlocked country. Since the blockade began on September 9, militants have destroyed at least 250 tankers and buses.
​
-
Classes at the Bible Institute are continuing, but the lack of fuel delayed the teacher’s arrival this week, and the teacher scheduled for next week is already concerned about being able to make the trip to the campus.
