Nigerian Muslims shot two Christian men
On August 4th, Islamic Fulani militants shot two Christian men in the Bokkos area of the Plateau State in Nigeria, reports International Christian Concern.
The men, whose names are being withheld for their protection, are thankful to be alive.
One of them said, “To the glory of God, we both survived.”
David John, the medical director of the hospital where the men are currently receiving treatment, said the hospital’s staff would provide them with the best medical care.
Bokkos was one of three Plateau communities targeted by Muslim Fulani militants during the Christmas Eve massacre in 2023. In those attacks, more than 200 Christians were killed, including 148 people in Bokkos.
According to Open Doors, Nigeria is the sixth most dangerous country worldwide in which to be a Christian.
Pray for God’s justice in Nigeria. Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.”
Ukrainian navy takes out Russian gas rig
Ukraine blasted a Russian gas rig in the Black Sea near the Dnipro River, killing 40 Russian soldiers, reports The U.S. Sun.
Dramatic footage shows a giant fireball erupting from the Russian headquarters after it was targeted by the Ukrainian Navy. The decimated rig was packed with “reconnaissance equipment” to help with Russia’s war effort.
Ukrainian officials claimed the gas rig used to be controlled by their military, but had become occupied by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s forces in recent years.
Harris leads Trump in 3 battleground states
Vice President Kamala Harris leads former President Donald Trump in three crucial battleground states, according to new surveys by The New York Times and Siena College.
This is the latest indication of a dramatic reversal in standing for Democrats after President Biden’s departure from the presidential race.
Harris is ahead of Trump by four percentage points in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan, 50 percent to 46 percent among likely voters in each state. The surveys were conducted from Aug. 5 to 9.
Trump: Kamala Harris not smart enough to hold news conference
Despite her rise in the polls, Donald Trump does not think Kamala Harris is smart enough to hold a news conference.
TRUMP: “She can’t do a news conference. She doesn’t know how to do a news conference. She’s not smart enough to do a news conference. I’m sorry. We need smart people to lead this country because our country has never been in this danger before, both economically and from an outside perspective.”
Kamala Harris: “Everybody needs to be woke!”
A video of Vice President Kamala Harris declaring that “everybody needs to be woke” in 2017 has resurfaced and gone viral on social media, reports Media Research Center.
Appearing with philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple Founder Steve Jobs, Harris spoke at the 2017 Recode Code Conference.
Listen.
HARRIS: “We have to stay woke. Like everybody needs to be woke. You can talk about if you’re the woke-est or woke-er, but just stay more woke than less woke.”
Send letters to 6 imprisoned pro-lifers
Pro-life rescuers either in or awaiting prison have made – and are making – gigantic sacrifices for practicing non-violent civil disobedience at abortion mills on behalf of their pre-born brothers and sisters.
By giving up their emotional support networks of family, friends, and colleagues, these pro-life heroes are in danger of a loneliness that can be felt even – or especially – in a crowded prison cafeteria or yard. Some of them have been handed years-long sentences, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
You can send letters to six of these imprisoned pro-life heroes through addresses you can access through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.
You can send letters to Jonathan Darnel, Will Goodman, Lauren Handy, Heather Idoni, Jean Marshall, and Bevelyn Williams at their respective prisons. Even a 2-3 sentence letter, which would take no time at all, especially from your children, would lift their spirits.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 says, “ Therefore, encourage one another and build each other up.”
Please read the 10 tips for writing them and sign the prayer pledge for the pro-life rescuers facing a decade in prison.
MacGyver-minded officer saves toddler
And finally, from Kansas comes the story of a quick-thinking rescue that hauled a 14-month-old toddler from a would-be tomb at the bottom of a drain pipe, reports Good News Network.
The terrifying ordeal was caught on camera and saw a Moundridge Police Department officer build on the spot a makeshift catchpole typically used for pulling varmints out of hard-to-reach places.
Secured under his shoulders, the loop of rope at the end of the catchpole was able to lift the boy, named Bently, out from where he was trapped 10 feet down a section of 12-inch-wide PVC pipe that had been buried vertically.
The parents said they called 9-1-1 just before 2:00 p.m. when they realized Bently had fallen into the PVC hole.
Blake, the father’s boy, described his emotions before the rescue to the local news station.
BLAKE: “Looking down at him as he was screaming, he wanted out of there, he wanted help and you can’t do anything. It’s complete helplessness. It’s horrifying, it’s haunting, to feel so helpless, knowing that your child is in serious need of help.”
When police, fire department, and EMS arrived at the family’s home about 40 miles northwest of Wichita, Officer Ronnie Wagner had an idea.
WAGNER: “I threaded some rope through a PVC pipe, tied a knot at the end of it so that it would slip, and we used it to wrap around under his shoulders here and lift him out of the hole.”
Watch a video of the dramatic rescue through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.
The toddler’s father was deeply grateful.
BLAKE: “It’s a blessing and a miracle to have a First Responder that lives right behind us. There aren’t words to express our gratitude.”
Zephaniah 3:17 says, “The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you … and will rejoice over you with singing.”
