The Prayer of Jabez 3

 “And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou ….. and that thine hand might be with me, …….” 1 Chronicles 4:10

The third prayer request of Jabez was that the hand of God should be with him. The hand of God with you implies the presence of God with you. This is the secret of rest at any time. This is the secret of the supernatural life. The hand of God makes you walk in the supernatural of God and gives you access to God’s authority and power. If you are conscious of the hand of God upon your life, you can never be afraid, no matter the case. The hand of God breaks the arm of wickedness.

“And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.” Exodus 33:14

“But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.” Luke 11:20

When the hand of God is upon you, you cannot fail, no matter your physical weakness and limitations. The hand of God will turn your life around and produce a glorious destiny, even if the situation looks hopeless. If you have tried and failed, pray until the hand of God is upon your life. Jabez did so, and he, who was a failure and downtrodden, became an honorable man in his generation.

May the hand of God be upon you in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, Let your hand be upon me in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The Prayer of Jabez 2

“And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou ….. enlarge my coast, …….” 1 Chronicles 4:10

The second prayer of Jabez is a prayer of increase; he asked God to enlarge his coast. An increase is of God (1 Cor 3:6).  Specifically, enlargement and increase are results of God’s blessings (Deuteronomy 28:1-13). In Gen 1:28, God pronounced man blessed for him to increase and dominate the world. You cannot truly experience enlargement without God’s power at work in your life. You can pray for enlargement, as Jabez did, but you must also walk in obedience to God.  

“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” Genesis 1:28

“Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.” Job 8:7

The enlargement of your coast is all-encompassing. It means an increase in influence and affluence. It means an increase in capacity and capability. It means getting better daily. This can be geometrical or arithmetical. Life is not stagnant, so it is important for you to experience enlargement so that you can be at the top of life situations. At the time Jabez prayed the prayer, he was under the curse of smallness. However, God heard him, blessed him, and enlarged his coast.

 

May God enlarge your coast in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, bless me and increase me in every area of my life in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The Prayer of Jabez 1

“And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.” 1 Chronicles 4:9

Jabez’s life did not start with honors, but with a curse. However, he became honorable after he prayed and God answered him. Jabez prayed, and his destiny took shape. God is not a respecter of persons, but He always respects faith; He will do for others what He has done for one. The first prayer of Jabez was, “Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed.” This was similar to the prayer of Jacob in Genesis 32. I believe the beginning of a change of story for anyone is by receiving the blessing of God.

“And Jabez called on the God 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 God granted him that which he requested.” 1 Chronicles 4:10

“And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.” Genesis 32:26

No one can do without God’s blessing. The good news is that the blessing is part of our redemption package. The blessing is one of the promises of the Spirit, and as such, it must be received through faith. Pray through for the blessing (Luke 18:1-8). Declare yourself blessed until you see the manifestation (2 Cor 4:13). Walk with God and in obedience with Him (Job 36:11, Isaiah 1:19). In any case, be desperate like Jabez for the blessing of God in your life, you cannot do without it.

I pronounce you blessed in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God bless me indeed in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

"Giving shape to your destiny”

Don’t be powerless

 “The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.” Psalm 110:2-3

As Christians, we must rule in the midst of our enemies, and that takes power. The table is set before us in the midst of the enemy; if we must eat, we need power. Scorpions and serpents surround us; if we won’t get hurt, we need power. We are in the midst of devils; if we are not going to be afflicted with sickness, diseases, and poverty, we need power. The land promised to us by our God is not vacant; if we must take possession of it, we need power. It takes power to be a witness for Jesus and recover everything the enemy stole. Please don’t be powerless.

“Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.” Luke 9:1

“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19

When Jesus was here physically, He had to give His disciples the power to carry out the assignment He gave to them. When He left physically, He transferred the release of power to the Holy Spirit. He told them that they would receive power when the Holy Spirit came upon them. This means we must connect to the Holy Spirit if we do not want to be powerless.

May you be full of the Holy Spirit and power in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, anoint me with the Holy Spirit and power in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

Don’t be faithless

 “And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.” Luke 9:41

You can be religious, but faithless. Religion cannot give you results, but faith in Christ Jesus will give you results, please don’t be faithless. You cannot live without faith. You cannot please God without faith. You cannot change things without faith. You cannot overcome the world without faith. You cannot move mountains without faith. You cannot receive answers to your prayers without faith. You cannot possess your possessions without faith. You cannot make heaven without faith. Faith is the wisdom of God in the present, which is acting on God’s word; therefore, faith is the principal thing, in all your getting, get faith.

“Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.” Mathew 17:21

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” Romans 10:17

If you find out you lack faith in any situation, spend time with the written word, pray and fast. Ask God to give you faith. Faith is so important that it is both a gift and a fruit. Faith does not doubt the word, to be faithless is to doubt the word and consequently disobey the word. Faith believes the word. Faith does the word. Faith prays the word. Faith declares the word. To overcome any challenge, you need a specific word that will generate faith in you.

May you be full of faith in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God give increase my faith in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

The issue of a conflicting covenant

“Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David enquired of the Lord. And the Lord answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites.” 2 Samuel 21:1

The issue of a conflicting covenant is the secret behind prolonged and mysterious battles in the life of a Christian. Evil dedication, unknown commitment, and evil covenants are examples of conflicting covenants. I want you to know that just as God is jealous over those in covenant with Him, the devil is also jealous over those who are dedicated to him, knowingly or unknowingly. The devil may fight your health and prosperity if you are dedicated to him, but you want to serve God. The good news is that through the finished work on the cross, Jesus has dealt with the covenants working against us.

“For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.” Hebrews 8:7

“Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;” Colossians 2:14

If you are struggling to live as a Christian or some areas of your life are under mysterious attack despite the fact that you are born again, you may need to engage the power of God to deal with a conflicting covenant. Cancel whatever that is legally working against you as a Christian by the power in the blood of Jesus in the name of Jesus.

May you enjoy the inheritance of the Saints in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God arise, smite the gods and the goddesses attacking my life in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.

"Giving shape to your destiny”

The issue of a broken covenant

 “….. and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.” Deuteronomy 7:9

There are challenges in life, but no challenge can overcome a covenant child of God unless there is an issue of a broken covenant. Your sure security in this wild world is your covenant with God, you have to consciously guide and protect it. Little is much if the covenant is in place. A useless instrument can be a great weapon of war, if the covenant is in place. The foolish thing shall shame the wise if the covenant is in place. The covenant gives you God’s full commitment and backing, please do not break it.

“Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff.” Joshua 7:11

“And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the Lord was departed from him.” Judges 16:20

Israel turned back and was defeated by a weak enemy because of a broken covenant. They disobeyed God, took the accursed thing, and put it in their own stuff. The presence of the Lord left Samson and he became an ordinary man because of a broken covenant. As a new covenant believer, you only have to trust and obey the Lord to keep the covenant. The covenant is your covering both in the rain and in the sunshine.

May you never be outside the covenant in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God arise and repair the broken edges in my life in Jesus name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.
