Young Fulani Christian Smuggled from Captivity

[222] prayers in [17] nations have been posted for Aliyu.

Aliyu Abubakar, 23, is a new Christian who has already suffered and escaped from persecution. He is a member of the Fulani, a nomadic people group across west and central Africa. Some Fulani groups are militant Muslims who attack Christian communities, and when Aliyu accepted Christ, he was locked in a room for days with little food to separate him from the friend who had brought him to Christ. He escaped by being smuggled from his village. Aliyu said he likes Psalm 23 because it encourages him to continue with his walk with God, knowing that God is his shepherd. He requests prayer for his family to come to know Christ and to receive him as their Lord and savior. He also asks for prayer that he will stay firm in his faith and live in peace with others.
