Kano, Nigeria - 110 Cities

Let's broaden our global perspective and pray for the city of Kano, Nigeria.

Nigeria is a country located on the western coast of Africa. Nigeria has a diverse geography, ranging from arid to humid equatorial climates. However, Nigeria's most diverse feature is its people. Hundreds of languages are spoken in the country, and there are an estimated 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria. South Nigeria is the most economically developed part of Nigeria as the country's major industrial centers, and natural resources are concentrated in the region. In the arid north, Jesus followers live their lives under the constant threat of attack from Boko Haram, the Islamist extremist group.

Persecution in Nigeria has been brutally violent in recent years as extremists aim to rid Nigeria of all Christians. In addition to terrorism, Nigeria is dealing with many social challenges, from food shortages to abandoned children. Despite being Africa's wealthiest, most populous nation, more than half of the country lives below the poverty line. Northern Nigeria suffers the world's third-highest level of chronic undernutrition among children. Kano, the historical kingdom and traditional emirate in northern Nigeria is home to the Hausa people, the largest unreached tribe in Africa.

Like the surrounding region, the metropolis has experienced violence from extremist groups and sustained drought. Nationwide systemic deterioration such as this poses a significant challenge for the country's central government but a tremendous opportunity for the Nigerian church to advance the Kingdom of God through words, works, and wonders.

Pray for an Acts 19 movement to reach every unreached people and place in Kano, Nigeria and the surrounding regions.

Prayer Points: 

  • Pray for the spread of the Gospel and for multiplying house churches among the Haabe Fulani, Hausa, Borora Fulani, and Sokoto Fulani people.
  • Pray for the gospel SURGE teams for wisdom, protection, and courage as they plant churches.
  • Pray for the advancement of God's Kingdom throughout the 8 languages of this city.
  • Pray for a mighty movement of prayer to be birthed in Kano that multiplies throughout the country.
  • Pray for a resurrection of God's divine purpose for this city.

Understand the Urgency

February 4, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Understand the Urgency of the Task Jesus tells his disciples that we will not know the hour in which he will return, but that we should always be ready. Disciple Making Movements focus on the urgency of the task at hand - all peoples, nations, tribes and languages hearing the good news of Christ.

Rejoice and Sing!

February 3, 2025

Psalm 66:4-7 "Everything on earth will worship you;     they will sing your praises,     shouting your name in glorious songs. Come and see what our God has done,     what awesome miracles he performs for people! He made a dry path through the Red Sea,     and his people went across on foot.     There we rejoiced in him. For by his great power he rules forever.     He watches every movement of the nations;     let no rebel rise in defiance."
