UNICEF reports alarming sexual violence against children in Sudan’s civil war, with armed men raping children as young as one. 221 cases of rape have been reported since 2024, though the actual number is much higher. Victims, including boys, face societal stigma, which discourages many from seeking help. The violence has devastated many children, with some even attempting suicide. The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) are primarily responsible for these crimes. The US aid cuts have worsened the situation, reducing vital services for survivors.
GOD of justice, we cry out for Your righteous judgement upon the evil-doers behind the inhuman acts of violence in Sudan. We pray for the swift end to the war and violence in the country (The Holy Bible, Psalm 103:6).
Papa GOD, we plead Your divine Presence and Comfort for all the little souls in Sudan. Be with them, Father, and strengthen them to stand firm during this time of loneliness and uncertainty. Cover all the vulnerable people, including children, under Your Mighty Wings from all evil (The Holy Bible, Isaiah 43:2-3).
Jehovah Jireh, we pray for uninterrupted aid service for all the Sudanese people in need. LORD, we pray for Your divine provision for all the families in Sudan during this helpless time (The Holy Bible, Psalm 68:10).
