Do you think that any of your prayers impressed God? There was a man who prayed and found it placed in God’s Holy Writ.
1 Chronicals 4:9-10
Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.
Jabez considered the pain in his past, the promises of God, and his present need.
Are you a Jabez or just a pain?
Give it some thought.
