Last week, the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a wrote a prayer for Lesson 80 (Torah Peh), which is currently being studied as the "temporary lesson" by the 'Afuyim B'Libo' project. Before you is the full prayer as written by our teacher, the Rav shlit"a:

Prayer for Lesson 80 (Torah Peh)

Malchus she'bi'Gevurah (Kingship within Strength). Master of the Universe, Almighty One from whom no purpose can be withheld, merit us to fulfill everything written in Lesson 80 (Torah Peh), and to pray with supreme mesirus nefesh (self-sacrifice), word by word and every single letter. May no word or letter leave our mouths without kavanah (holy intent), Heaven forbid. Through this, may we unify Jacob and Joseph, the secret of "Hashem is the Builder of Jerusalem," for Jerusalem is the secret of the mochin (divine consciousness) which one merits only through prayer with kavanah (intent) and supreme mesirus nefesh (self-sacrifice)—being ready to give one's life at every moment and second for Kiddush Hashem (the sanctification of Hashem's Name), and to die through all the tortures and sufferings in the world, like in Auschwitz and Treblinka; that the dogs should eat all my limbs as happened in Auschwitz and Treblinka, where they threw people alive into the fire and to the dogs.

For Joseph is comprised of the feet and hands, as it is written, "and without you, no man shall lift his hand or his foot."

And like Nachum Ish Gamzu, who became an amputee in both his legs and both his hands, and blind in both his eyes, and his entire body was filled with shchin (boils) (Taanis 21a), due to the great pain and anguish of soul that he missed by one minute the rescue of that poor man he met in the heart of the desert, who was loaded with three donkeys full of food, drink, and delicacies. Thus, a person must always be careful, like Nachum Ish Gamzu, not to cause pain to any Jew.

And to always be like Yosef HaTzaddik (Joseph the Righteous), of whom it is said, "I seek my brothers," for Joseph was comprised of Chasadim (kindnesses) and Gevuros (strengths). For all the time, he only cared for his brothers—"I seek my brothers"—and he sustained them for 71 years [from age 39 to 110]. Yet on the other hand, he was not afraid to rebuke them regarding the matter of ever min hachai (eating a limb from a living animal), even though he knew they would sell him. But in truth, it was not actually ever min hachai, as the holy Or HaChaim explains.
