Prayer for the saints to set aside definite times to pray each day:
Pray that the saints would make their vow practical by setting aside definite times each day to persevere in prayer (Dan. 6:10; Psa. 55:17; Acts 10:9 and notes 91 and 92).
Continuing steadfastly in prayer and in the ministry of the word:
We suggest that we all read one Life-study message at the prayer meeting every Tuesday night before we begin to pray for the following prayer items. Tonight, let’s read Message #107 of Life-study of Genesis.

1. For the Fall 2026 Middle-age Full-time Training in Anaheim:
Fall 2026 Term will begin on September 7.
The Purpose of the Training
1) To build up the trainees in Christ in the growth of His life unto maturity — Ephesians 4:15; Colossians 1:28.
2) To equip the trainees in the realization of the divine truths according to the Scriptures by the revelation of the Holy Spirit — 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 1 Timothy 2:4; 2 Peter 3:18.
3) To raise up the trainees in the cultivation of their spiritual capacity in the preaching of the gospel, the nourishing of the young believers, the perfecting of the saints, and the prophesying of the word of God for the building up of the local churches, consummating in the building up of the Body of Christ — Matthew 28:19; 1 Thessalonians 2:7; Ephesians 4:12; 1 Corinthians 14:1.
Please pray that many middle-aged saints will heed the Lord’s calling and take up a burden to be trained and apply for this term of training, so that they may be perfected in life, truth, the gospel, and service through the training, for the building up of the local churches, consummating in the building up of the Body of Christ.
2. For the 2026 European University Training:
It will take place from September 5–9 at Woodland Camp in London.
Please pray:
That the Lord speak a personal word to the university students and call them into a deeper experience and enjoyment of Him.
That this generation of students and young adults become useful to the Lord in their localities and on their campuses for the building up of the Body of Christ.
3. For September 2026 ITERO in Amsterdam (24-26 September):
The September 2026 International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones (ITERO) will be held in person on 24-26 September in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The general subject will be “The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
Please pray that the Lord will release a timely word to all the leading ones and the saints in Europe and around the globe, and that the saints everywhere will receive the revelation and the life supply in this word that will enable them to cooperate with the Lord for the building up of the Body and the preparation of the bride to end this age.
4. For the end of the war between Ukraine and Russia:
Please pray that the Lord would preserve the tripartite being of all the saints in these two countries and bring an end to this war, so that His move in Russia, Ukraine, and throughout Europe may advance to prepare His Bride and consummate this age.
5. Translation of the New Testament Recovery Version into Czech and Slovak:
Please pray for the translation team in their uninterrupted work of translating the NT text and footnotes.
6. Special prayer requests for the sick ones for the sake of God’s divine interests:
“Then they cried out to Jehovah in their trouble, / And He saved them out of their distresses. He sent forth His word and healed them…” (Psalm 107:19-20)
“And if they return to You with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their enemies, who have carried them captive, and they pray to You toward their land that You have given to their fathers, the city that You have chosen, and the house that I have built for Your name; …Then hear their prayer and their supplication in the heavens and maintain their cause.” (1 Kings 8:48, 45)
1) Sister Iris: She had radiation on her brain last Friday on Aug 28 and on Monday August 31. She will see her oncologist on Sept 4. Sister Iris asks the saints to pray for her and her husband brother Les.
2) Baby Naomi (daughter of Branden & Katrin): The swelling on her neck is much smaller now. There’s still drainage coming out. She finished her antibiotics. She had diarrhea from antibiotics. The doctor said to continue to observe the swelling on her neck.
Please pray that the infection and swelling on Naomi’s neck area will be completely resolved soon.
(Footnote for 1 Kings 8:48)
Verses 31-48 mention seven conditions concerning God’s listening to the prayers of His elect. In this, the last, condition three things are stressed (v. 48): the Holy Land, typifying Christ as the portion allotted by God to the believers (see note 71 in Deut. 8); the holy city, signifying the kingdom of God in Christ (Psa. 48:1-2); and the holy temple, signifying God’s house, the church, on the earth (Eph. 2:21; 1 Tim. 3:15). These are the three crucial things regarding God’s economy. During the Babylonian captivity Daniel prayed toward the Holy Land, the holy city, and the holy temple three times a day by opening his window toward Jerusalem (Dan. 6:10). This indicates that God will listen to our prayer when our prayer to God is toward Christ, the kingdom of God, and the house of God as the goal in God’s eternal economy. This means that no matter for whom we are praying, our prayers should be aimed at the interests of God, i.e., at Christ and the church as God’s interests on earth, for the fulfilling of God’s economy.
7. For the Young People’s Service/Meeting in Torrance:
We should pay particular attention to the young people in our work in each locality. Today Satan’s organizations and philosophies pay particular attention to young people. Can we not infer that God is paying attention to young people as well? This does not mean that the souls of older people are not precious in God’s eyes, but it does mean that for the sake of God’s work and for the future of the gospel, there is more hope with the young people. Our gospel work should place special emphasis on high school and college students. We should spend and pour out our all to save, cultivate, edify, and lead these young ones. (The Collected Works of Watchman Nee, vol. 55, p. 49)
Please pray:
* That more saints would rise up and take the burden to pray for and shepherd the young people.
* That our current young people would be properly cared for in life and in truth, so that they may become the loving seekers of Christ in this evil age.
* That the Lord would bless the YP service and meetings in Torrance to raise up the next generation for His eternal economy.
8. For the dormant and backslidden ones to be recovered through our shepherding them according to the pattern of the apostle Paul, who shepherded the saints as a nursing mother and an exhorting father in order to take care of God’s flock.
9. For the resumption of the campus work at CSUDH (California State University, Dominguez Hills):
Please pray that the Lord would open a clear and effectual door for the resumption of the campus work at CSUDH, preparing the interceding ones, serving ones, the environment, the administration, and the students’ hearts for His move on the campus.
“Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest that He would thrust out workers into His harvest.” [Matthew 9:38]
10. For the saints who have lost their loved ones or are ill for the sake of His divine interests (The all-inclusive Christ, the Kingdom of God, and the House of God):
Please pray that the Lord, the true Physician, would care for the sick saints and grant them healing through His all-sufficient grace, that they may experience and enjoy more of Christ throughout every medical procedure for His divine interests.
