Nigerians Sing Praise Despite Persecution

07/18/2022 Washington D.C. (International Christian Concern) – We recently received some powerful footage from a prayer conference in Nigeria’s Plateau State. If you’ve followed ICC for any length of time, you know that this region is a hub of violence where Christian communities are constantly being targeted by radical Fulani militants.

Yet, as the video shows, these believers have a depth of joy that cannot be stolen. This calls to mind a passage from Habakkuk in which the prophet expresses his praises to the Lord despite the destruction unfolding around him.

Whether in modern-day Nigeria or ancient Israel, the message remains the same. The Lord is worthy of our praise regardless of our circumstances and we can always trust in Him throughout the storms of life. God bless.
