And Jabez called on the G-D of Israel, saying, Oh that Thou
wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that Thine
hand might be with me, and that Thou wouldest keep me from
evil,
that it may not grieve me! And G-D granted him that which he
requested.
It’s a
timeless ancient prayer that produces timely results even for
the nowadays generation! It takes readers to (1
Chronicles 4:10)
to discover how they can release God’s miraculous power and
experience the blessings God longs to give each of us. The life
of Jabez, one of the Scripture’s most overlooked heroes of the
faith, a five-part prayer that brings him an extraordinary
measure of Divine favor, anointing, and protection! Readers who
commit to offering the same prayer on a regular basis will find
themselves extravagantly blessed by God, and agents of His
miraculous power, in everyday life!
The Prayer of Jabez reveals that Jabez
understands what many people do not -- there is only one God and
He should be the center of our work God wants to bless every
life. But, we must first make the choice to invite God into our
life and ask for His blessings. Jabez wants to succeed and
increase his sphere of influence for God. The specific sphere of
influence is not important. What is important is that when we
want to reach for goals and accomplishments that we have God on
our side.
It
is critical to understand and practice this in a close
relationship with God. Further, it is equally important to stay
close to God and rely on His continued support and guidance
throughout life. Jabez clearly knows and prays specifically to
the One who can protect him from evil
and pain
-- God. At the end of the verse it is clear that God approved of
this faithful prayer by granting it.
God is faithful in caring for those who seek Him.
Jabez sets a great example of how God wants everyone to come to
Him through constant and passionate prayer. If you are looking
to start a relationship with God or improve your existing
relationship with Him, start with prayer. God answers prayers
when you trust Him!
And it is G-D's desire to lavish His love on you simply because you are
His child and He is your G-D! He offers you more than your earthly father ever could, for
He is the perfect Father!
Every good gift that you receive comes from G-D's hand, for He is your provider and
He meets all your needs.
His plan for your future has always been filled with hope, because
He loves you with an everlasting love! Related site:“Warfare-Prayer”
