You are invited to bring a spiritual
view, and therefore spiritual power, to the “Bring Back Our Girls” campaign
protesting the abduction of 276 female students in Nigeria 500 days ago (only
57 escaped). A video released last May by Boko Haram showed 100 of the girls in
Muslim attire. It announced that they had converted and were now married. Today’s march on the capital and evening
candle-lit vigil marks the 500 days. Although this incident has received
world-wide attention, the hope of rescue is dwindling – it is a call for
compassionate spiritual support which reaches into every nook, crevice, or
hiding place with its presence, light, spiritual power, and protection. It is
reported that the military knows where these female students are located but
are in a quandary as to the rescue operation as it would endanger the lives of
the captives. Please prayerfully meditate on the presence of the I AM as Light,
as a gentle light present with the girls. Additionally, please quietly affirm
with feeling that this Light permeates the thoughts of those in command
militarily to provide the strategy that will successfully bring release to
these innocent ones whose families are in despair. The fact that they can be
released is illustrated by the divine power and law as seen the disciple, Peter’s,
miraculous release from prison, as recorded in the book of Acts, chapter 12. He
is kept in the “inner” prison, sleeping between two soldiers, “bound with two
chains” (verse 6). The faithful ones were praying for him continually. This is
the set-up we are looking at today with the abducted girls, and we are the ones
who are praying. The text says that “a light shined in the prison.” Let us pray
to realize this light, the presence of the gentle Love that is God, be made
manifest tangibly for the girls. Then an “angel of the Lord” came and woke
Peter, and told him exactly what to do. He was commanded to stand (and the
chains fells off), to dress, to put on his shoes, and to follow. Peter did so,
and every obstacle was removed until he found himself out on the street – free.
He then went to the home where the others were praying for him. Our
compassionate desire of the heart is for the kidnapped girls to make their way
back to their homes as well. Please affirm that angel thoughts are coming to
each one and telling them exactly what to do to be safe and to be rescued and
freed. Then let us thank the One Power operating in the universe, that is ever
present and all good, knowing its omnipotence and tender love and action over
all it own beloved children.
