The Prayer of Jabez 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 Scripture Reading Ps 67

“Oh that You would bless me indeed…” Is Jabez acting selfishly here? – Like a child who wants everyone to notice him – Like a televangelist obsessed with himself…bless me, give me, pay attention to me

“Oh that You would bless me indeed…”

“Enlarge my territory…” My territory means my country, my domain, my boundary, my limitation Jabez is not only asking for more territory, he is asking for more responsibility and work as well

“That Your hand would be with me” Without God we can do nothing Zec 4:6 Jn 15:4 Ps 37:23-24

“That Your hand would be with me” John 10:28 “And I give them eternal life and they shall not perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of my hand”

“That You would keep me from evil” Jabez acknowledges that his request is spiritually dangerous Deut 32:15 Wealth and comfort cause people to forget that all comes from God Has been true throughout history

“God granted him what he requested.” Just as God received Jabez’ unselfish prayer, God will also receive our prayers to, “Bless us, enlarge our territory, keep His hand on us, and keep us from evil”
