Prayer Burdens for Berlin for the Week of 12 April 2022

Dear saints, the suggested prayer burdens are given as a help to pray for matters that we feel are important for the Lord's interest at this time. These do not need to be followed in the way of legality; we want our prayer to be organic by following the leading of the Spirit. Also please pray for the ones that you are burdened for and the needs that you are aware of in the groups.

And knowing that a man is...justified...through faith in Jesus Christ, we...have believed into Christ Jesus that we might be justified out of faith in Christ and not out of the works of law, because out of the works of law no flesh will be justified. (Gal. 2:16)

1. On 13-15 April the leading brothers in Europe will receive the Lord’s word spoken in the spring ITERO on God’s Economy in Faith, and on 16-17 April the annual London International Blending Conference will take place. Please pray that all the leading brothers and the saints will be strengthened and supplied by the Lord’s rich speaking to give the Lord their highest cooperation in the carrying out of His economy in these crucial days. Pray for the blending that will bring us into the reality of the Body of Christ.

2. Prayer regarding the situation in the Ukraine

• Pray that the Lord’s testimony in the Ukraine would be preserved and pray for the Lord’s shepherding of the saints that are still in the Ukraine.
• Pray for our receiving of the saints from the Ukraine that have come from Gut Elim to Berlin. Pray that many saints in Berlin will participate in the care of these saints in a way that will minister life to them.
• Pray that the teams that will be going out to proclaim the gospel among the refugees in Eastern Europe will find many sons of peace who will open their hearts to receive the Lord and be gained for the church life.
• Pray that through these gospel trips the existing churches will be strengthened and new golden lampstands will be raised up. Pray that through these gospel trips the Lord of the harvest will thrust out workers into the harvest in Europe.
• Pray that the Lord will strengthen and burden the saints in Berlin to rise up and participate in the preaching of the gospel in Berlin together with the gospel teams.

3. Pray for our practice of the burden released in the last God-ordained Way Practice Training meeting - pray for our personal prayer to absorb and express the Lord; pray for our corporate prayer in harmony for the ones on our list; pray for the building up of the habit to daily contact one person related to Christ and the church.

4. Pray for the continued prayer and care for the young people by the parents and the serving ones. Pray that the homes of the saints would be open regularly and consistently for the shepherding of the young people in a loving atmosphere to build up their companionship and nurture them in the Word and in the enjoyment of the Lord.

5. The new semester begins all in person classes next week, on April 18th. Please pray we would not miss the opportunity but we’d rise up, show strength, and take action for the gospel to spread among the students in Berlin and for the church to bear remaining fruit for the future of the Lord‘s testimony in Berlin and Europe.
