  • Pray that God’s throne will rule in Israel and the Middle East, in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, in the United States as it undergoes a change in administration, and in every nation and region of the world, so that God’s wisdom and Christ’s victory over the forces of darkness will be manifested and God will carry out His move to gain His chosen ones, work Himself into them, and build them up into His corporate expression that would be His prepared Bride for whom He would return.

Regional

  • Pray for those of the household of the faith, that the saints’ needs would be met by the Lord directly and through the attentive care of the fellow members of His Body, so that none would be overwhelmed but would experience Christ in this time of loss, trial and uncertainty.

  • Pray for the people of Los Angeles, that the existing campus labor, especially at UCLA and USC, would continue and would bear much fruit, and that in the communities the saints will be one with the Lord to show compassion and care to those in their circle to bring the Lord’s healing presence to them.

  • Pray that the Lord will protect the interests, assets and properties for His move in Los Angeles and in the adjacent communities, including all the churches in Southern California and the Oak Glen Conference Center.

  • Pray that the Lord will head up all things in Christ through His constructive economy amidst the destructive chaos.

  • Pray that the Lord’s hand will follow His word released in this weekends’ Spanish-Speaking Saints’ Conference in Anaheim, and the saints will enter into all the matters that they heard.

Local

  • Pray for the leading brothers in the church in Irvine, that the Lord would protect and cover them in every way for their service to the Lord and the church.

  • Pray for the Lord to bless the campus work and the church life of the college students and those serving them, as a new quarter and semester begin at UC Irvine and IVC.

  • Pray for the strengthening of the full-time team.

  • Pray that the Lord would grow in all of the students and would solidify the new ones in the church life, so that they would remain to be built into God’s house.

  • Pray that the enemy would be bound and his works destroyed so that God’s interests on the campuses would be advanced in an unhindered way.

The above are some of the current prayer burdens that the saints may bring to the Lord in their personal or corporate prayer; however, the saints should be exercised to follow the leading of the Spirit in their prayer.
