Prayer, Week of September 29
Being Reconstituted with Christ to Become God's Dwelling Place
"As the living Father has sent Me and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also shall live because of Me." (John 6:57)
"It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life." (John 6:63)
God wants to change our diet to a diet of Christ as the real manna sent by God the Father for God's chosen people to be reconstituted with Christ and to live because of Christ to become God's dwelling place.
By feeding on manna, God's people eventually became manna. Our constitution must be rearranged through the eating of Christ so that the church as the dwelling place of God may be built up. May the Lord change our diet so that we may be reconstituted with Christ and become God's dwelling place. (Crystallization-Study of Numbers, msg. 15, III.G)
ITERO in India
The International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones (ITERO) takes place this week from October 3 to 5 in Bangalore, India. Many saints will participate in blending trips afterwards. Please pray for all the preparations, that the Lord can head up all the arrangements for the rich release of His up-to-date speaking without any hindrance. Also pray for the smooth entry of the overseas saints and the health, food and transportation of all the saints.
Lord, may Your recovery advance in India and throughout the whole earth!

BfA Tour in Northern and Central California
Bibles for America staff members joined local volunteers for a distribution tour in Northern and Central California earlier this month. BfA tables were set up at colleges and other locations. At every venue, people of all ages were happy to receive the gift of God's Word. We gave away 323 Bibles, 244 ministry books, and around 1,130 gospel tracts. Many also signed up to be contacted by the local BfA volunteers.
Please pray that each recipient would read the materials with a hungry heart and an open mind. Pray also for the follow-up with those who requested one-on-one Bible studies with the local volunteers.
Germany – Meeting Hall in Berlin
The church in Berlin has purchased a large property and villa that will meet the needs of the church and support the Lord's testimony in this strategic city. The purchase price is US$5.6 million; there is a shortage of US$2.46 million. The closing date is November 15.
We believe this property is the result of the fighting prayer in the whole Body. We pray that the Lord will grace many in this financial fellowship. Contributions designated 'Berlin Meeting Hall' may be given to the church in Los Angeles or at http://www.lordsmove.org (click on Offerings for various ways to give).
The complete letter from Berlin with photos is at https://churchinlosangeles.org/prayer.
Myanmar
Please pray for the Electronic Version of the Holy Bible Recovery Version in Burmese to come out in October. Also pray for the Full-time Training in Yangon, which currently has 68 brothers and 34 sisters attending, that these ones would be fully gained and perfected by the Lord for His economy.
