1,347 displaced Nigerians killed by Muslim extremists
International Christian Concern visited 17 different camps for Nigerian Internally Displaced Persons in three counties that were attacked by the Fulani Muslim militants between December 2023 and January 2024.  
Tragically, 1,347 displaced Nigerians were killed from last year until now, most of whom were women, children, and older adults who could not run to escape.  Specifically, 741 people were killed in Mangu County, 397 people were killed in Bokkos County, and 209 people were killed in Barkin Ladi.  
Naomi David, a 43-year widow in Barkin Ladi County said, “Help us with food.”  Nine people were killed in her family, including her husband. She explained, “My village was attacked by Fulani [militants] on Christmas Eve. The total number of 22 people [were] killed from the attack. … Fulani have occupied our land to graze their cattle.”
Continue to pray for our Nigerian brothers and sisters in Christ and consider making a donation through International Christian Concern to help.
Democrats upset with Biblically-sound prayer in Congress
On February 15th, 26 Democratic Congressmen expressed their outrage that Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills, California was allowed to pray as a guest chaplain in the U.S. House of Representatives on January 30th, reports The Christian Post. 
In a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson, who had invited him to lead the prayer, they blasted Hibbs as a Christian nationalist who was guilty of “spewing hateful vitriol” toward homosexuals because he has dared to affirm a Biblical view of marriage and sexuality.  They were especially upset that he claims that America was founded as a Christian nation.
In a subsequent appearance on “Ministry Now” on Daystar TV, Hibbs explained the motivation of our founding fathers.
HIBBS: “Our founding fathers said we're not going to start the business of the nation without prayer. People don't realize that.”
He also noted some of the strange rules that governed his prayer, some of which he disregarded.
HIBBS: “There are existing rules that say, for example, you're to avoid ‘Father.’ That might offend some people. You can't bring up Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior ..."
Co-HOST: “What?”
HIBBS: “...because that's proselytizing.”
Listen now to the powerful prayer of Pastor Jack Hibbs from January 30th in the opening moments of Congress.
HIBBS: “Almighty God, and Father of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Together, we come before You in humility, as a people in need of Your forgiveness, Your mercy, Your goodness, and Your grace for these 250 or so years.
“Our fathers, in this Congress, have prayed for Your guidance and protection. And so we stand here, in humble petition, that You today might do the same, that this nation and its unparalleled Constitution, Your great gift to all freedom-loving people, might be renewed here, and across this land, as a beacon of hope to all who seek peace.
“I ask You today, Father, to bring to us a great awakening of righteousness and confidence in You, Who alone is mighty to save. Hear my cry in this hour of great need, that we might be humbly blessed before You in the repentance of our national sins.
“You, Almighty God, are the source of all wisdom, and there is no wisdom, but that which comes from You. So please, come upon those here who are the stewards over the business of our nation with Your wisdom which comes from above and with Your holy fear, knowing that Your coming day of judgment draws nearer, when all who have been, and are now in the authority, will answer to You, the great Judge of Heaven and Earth for the decisions that they make here in this place.
“I offer this prayer to you Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son and our crucified Savior and resurrected Lord. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
