While thanking the almighty God for His intervention that gave the Church in Nigeria the first relatively massacre-free Christmas in a decade, the last quarter for 2025 still recorded not less than 55 Islam-inspired attacks, on largely Christian communities. According to compilations made on the website of TheRegligionofPeace, 270 people were killed and 183 others wounded and maimed in these attacks which occurred between Oct 1 and Dec 31 2025. November had the highest number of attacks (24) with 104 people killed. October had 15 attacks with 99 people killed, while December witnessed 16 documented attacks and 67 killed.
One of the deadliest periods in the decade was 2023
Christmas which saw massacres recorded in over 17 Christian villages across Plateau
State leaving estimated 200 people dead and thousands displaced. Similar number of people were killed the previous year in Zamfara where Islamists demanded that all Churches be closed (see )
We are very hopeful that the long-prophesied breakthrough
for the Church in Nigeria is on the horizon.
Part of the ongoing global show of force by the almighty God being
manifested in diverse key countries including El Savador, the United States,
Israel, Poland, and currently Nigeria and Venezuela.
All pointing to the soon-coming of the Lord. It's harvest time!
Shalom.
Church Arise!
