While I was in the shower this morning, I felt led to post this thread. Would anyone be interested in praying the prayer of Jabez over the next 30 days starting lets say June 7,2005. It was very popular about 3 years ago and many people experienced breakthroughs after praying that prayer along with their other prayers/conversations with God.

The prayer is found in 1 Chronicles 4:9-10. Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request.

It is a four part petition
  1. "bless me indeed" (that is, pour out every bit of blessing that You have intended for me);
  2. "expand my territory" (that is, take my ministry, business, and so forth and give me new opportunities to do big things for You);
  3. "may your hand be with me" (that is, use Your power to sustain these blessings); and
  4. "keep me from evil" (that is, remove temptations from me so that I will not sin).
Anybody want to go on this prayer fast with me? At the end of 30 days perhaps we could come back and testify?
 
I pray for those things nightly anyway, just not in those exact words. Do you have to say the exact prayer of Jabez word for word or would my version count? Just curious, not trying to be a smarty-pants :p
 
I really don't know. I read the prayer of Jabez book a very long time ago and I think I gave it away, cause I can't find it. But I think that as long as you hit all four points it would work.
 
I'm definitely in...I didn't know this included a fast until I read the post again this evening...I felt the spirit of the Lord moving me to a fast prior to me reading this post thoroughly...so I'll bet this is God's way of saying, I need to fast along with saying this prayer. So just let us know when we're going to start so we may all be on one accord.

I'm already claiming and expecting God to do a new thing in me/us...to show up and show out on me/us...I/we give Him the glory right now in advance...Thank you Jesus...for what you've done...what you're doing and what you're going to do in the mind/body/soul/heart/spirit of your daughter/s...Amen.
 
I had a hard hard day at work, your prayers have really been a tremendous help to me. Okay I will let everyone know when to get started.

The joy of the lord is my strentgh.

I am sorry ladies, i've been so busy. Let's start our 30 day count down Starting Saturday the 11th. Also I will be praying for everyone on this thread as well so pray for me and I'll pray for you. I can't wait to hear the testimonies.
 
Whatever the Lord leads you to do. I find that I can't fast unless he calls me to do so.

Saturday it is...:yep:

I'm ready for whatever kind of breakthroughs God has in store for me.:)

I will keep everyone lifted up and covered in prayer and I am in full anticipation of several testimonies. Stay encouraged ladies.
 
Ladies just want to remind you to continue to pray the prayer of Jabez not only for yourself but for our loves ones and each other. The breakthrough normally comes after the 30 days. God is Good, and his mercy endureth FOOOOOOOOOREVER.

God bless you indeed.
 
No, 19 sweetie just keep going.

Today bishop Jakes said that God said "His hand is right over your head' translation for me "He is about to Bless you indeed!!!!"

He said God wants to give you MORE. He said ask GOD for MORE. to increase you God wants to give you MORE. WHich lines up with "enlarge my territory" But more than that I was in court not to long ago and it looked like I was losing. SO in my panick I had to still my mind because I was very anxious and almost in a panick, so I called my husband and my sister for back up (isn't it nice to have back up) I told them what was going on an to pray for me. So we were on a break I closed my eyes so that I could say a silent prayer and I heard the lord say to me "this is a year of increase" u will not loose. I came out with major victory more than I even thought. But shortly after that on my new job the Lord said pay attention to what I am doing, (he has said so many things to me) and I was listening and looking but nothing became Rhema to me. SO on my way home the Lord was talking to me about my "position" at work and I was saying well LOrd you already know what I do but he said what do you do? so I said I am over the MORE program (Glory to God) he said yes the MORE program. WHich is all about managing MORE opportunities. He said that I would have MORE victories and MORE opportunities this year than ever! And it is true I've had a couple of job offers in the last week.

One day I was coming from work tired as all outdoors He said turn here I want to show you something, I said Lord I am tired can I see it another day He said yes, he proceed to say watch what I do with your people. I am going to bless (AA) like never before. Houses, businesses, peace, joy, wealth all of that. I am looking and expecting HIS GOODNESS!

I have so much to say but it would take me forever to type it out. I will tell more later.

God bless you all with his CHoices blessings, and expect MORE.
 
Wow. Yesterday, I was trying to figure out what/how to pray in regards to a situation I have. This prayer popped in my mind. I did a search on this prayer yesterday and couldn't find anything. But, today here it is. :eek: This is a sign I'm sure.
 
BUMPING, Anybody interested in doing the 30 day challenge again. A friend just gave me the book today. I thought I already had it but cant find the copy of the one I'm sure I had, guess I lost it when I moved. Ah well wanna do it again ladies?
