Prayer Ministry of the Church in Torrance (3/3/2026)
Upon your walls, O Jerusalem, / I have appointed watchmen; / All day and all night / They will never keep silent. / You who remind Jehovah, / Do not be dumb;
And do not give Him quiet / Until He establishes / And until He makes Jerusalem / A praise in the earth. (Isa. 62:6-7)
Thus says Jehovah, / The Holy One of Israel and the One who formed him, / Ask Me about the things to come concerning My sons, / And concerning the work of My hands, command Me. (Isa. 45:11)
Thus says the Lord Jehovah, Moreover for this I will be inquired of by the house of Israel to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock. (Ezek. 36:37)
** 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 #82 of Life-study of Genesis.

Please pray:
1. For the Shepherding of Seeking Ones after the Gospel trips in Italy:
Please continue to pray for the shepherding of the seeking ones who were contacted on the gospel trips during the Torch Relay and the Winter Olympics. Pray that new local churches will be raised up in Turin, Bologna, Prato, Naples, and other key cities, and that the churches in Rome, Milan, and Vicenza will be strengthened.
2. Southern Africa Blending Conference:
This weekend, March 7 to 8, there will be a conference for the southern African countries in Brits, a town near Pretoria, just over an hour’s drive from Johannesburg. Participating countries include Angola, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Mozambique, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. May the Lord bless everyone who attends and prepare their hearts to receive His present speaking to the churches.
Please pray:
• That the Lord be exalted as the One on the throne.
• That the saints all gain a fresh appreciation of His wonderful person and His Body.
• That the Lord lead and guide all the practical coordination and services.
• That the enemy’s attacks against the saints be restricted.
• That all the saints and churches in this region be brought on in the processes of maturing in life and being blended for the reality of the Body of Christ.
3. For the resumption of 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.
* Please pray for the follow-up to the orientation session for the YP serving ones and parents, which was held on March 1 (the past Lord’s Day).
* Please pray 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.
*Please pray that the Lord would bless the YP service and meetings in Torrance to raise up the next generation for His eternal economy.
4. For the memorial meeting for Brother Joseph Malet:
It will be held this Saturday, March 7, 2026, at 1:00 PM PST at the meeting hall of the church in Torrance.
* Please pray that the upcoming memorial meeting would be held in an atmosphere of resurrection and living hope through the bountiful supply of the Spirit.
* Please pray that the Lord would be glorified, magnified, and testified in the memorial meeting so that all the attendees, including guests and visitors, would be supplied and touched by Him.
5. For the club rush at El Camino, March 2-4:
*Please pray that there would be many divine appointments at the table where students are infused by the Lord.
*Please pray that all the local serving ones would serve in one spirit with one soul for the preaching of the high gospel on the campus.
6. For The Truth Sets US Free:
“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” (John 8:32)
“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free…” (Gal. 5:1a)
“For just as the rain comes down / And the snow from heaven, / And does not return there, / Until it waters the earth / And makes it bear and sprout forth, / That it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; / So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; / It will not return to Me vainly, / But it will accomplish what I delight in, / And it will prosper in the matter to which I have sent it.” (Isaiah 55:10-11)
It is evident that a spiritual seeking and hunger for the truth is increasing throughout the United States, especially among the younger generations. In 2026, two significant events in the United States will present a unique opportunity for preaching the gospel and distributing the NT Recovery Version: the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the FIFA World Cup matches. We have a marvelous opportunity to rise up and spread God’s interpreted Word to hungry seekers throughout North America.
This special time calls for a special response. The present burden is that as many saints as possible would rise up to pray, give, and go to participate in the Lord’s move this year. Our prayer and hope is that the Lord would blend the churches, vitalize the saints, and establish the Recovery Version as the definitive Bible translation read by believers in the US, thus preparing this country to be used by Him at the end of this age. May we all gain a taste for sharing the gospel and helping people know Christ and be set free by the truth!
7. For the Gospel preaching and Truth spreading in the Torrance area:
[John 15:5, 16] I am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart from Me you can do nothing. You did not choose Me, but I chose you, and I set you that you should go forth and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He may give you.
*Please pray for the vitalization of all the saints and the carrying out of the God-ordained way to bear fruits for the increase and spread of Christ.
*Pray that the Lord would bless the contacting of people through gospel preaching and the distribution of Bibles with ministry books, resulting in the bearing of much remaining fruit.
*Pray that the Lord would bring many young working saints and couples for the raising up of the next generation.
8. For the saints in Torrance who are ill for the sake of His divine interests (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.
9. For the Lord to strengthen His move in Europe, Asia, Africa, and all other countries:
