Becoming a refugee is not something anyone would wish to become. It means being forced out of one’s place or abode to live a beggarly life somewhere else. It is painful, and it often come with some trauma. Sometimes, they are evacuated to another location for safety, treatment, and care by those offering humanitarian service to save their lives.
There are three major reasons or causes for which people may become a refugee either in their own land or outside. These causes are war, persecution, and natural disasters. In this piece, we shall be raising prayer points for refugees. The prayers will be divided into three divisions based on the cause. The prayers will be raised in two dimensions for each of the categories which are the one prayed by refugee themselves and the ones prayed for the refugees.
