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).
Dan. 6:10—Now when Daniel came to know that the writing had been
signed, he went to his house (in his upper room he had windows open
toward Jerusalem) and three times daily he knelt on his knees and
prayed and gave thanks before his God, because he had always done so
previously.
Psa. 55:17—Evening and morning and at noontime / I complain and moan,
/ And He hears my voice.
Acts 10:9—And on the next day as they were journeying and drawing near
to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray around the sixth
hour.

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 #108 of Life-study of
Genesis.

service through the training, for the building up of the Body of
Christ.

bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ for the carrying out of
the training.
2. 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.
3. For the New Semester of El Camino College Gospel Work:

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.
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 last Friday. Pet scan was done last Thursday.
Her right shoulder is in pain after all the treatment and some of her
veins are slightly inflamed from IV insertion.
From sis Iris:
Please pray for me and bro Les.
2) Baby Naomi (daughter of Branden & Katrin): There’s no swelling and
no more pus coming out from the previous infection and swelling on the
neck of baby Naomi. Thank the Lord.
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.
