This week we focus our prayers on the Somali people. Pray the Lord would ‘bind the strong man and plunder the house of Islam’ particularly the room of Somali (Mark 3:27). O Lord, do a new thing among the Somali people. Have mercy on those who have committed acts of violence. May they repent and find forgiveness and shalom in Jesus. Have mercy on those who have suffered persecution, would you strengthen weak knees and give grace to stand firm in the faith. Have mercy on those who are weary of war and feel hopeless. May they find hope in Jesus.
