Today is the last day of our 30 Jabez challenge that was thoughtfully begun by DonnaDi31Proverbi who clarified a new challenge distinct from the older Jabez challenge thread that inspired this.
For the spin-off wondering if anyone has any testimony about a Jabez experience that came about after the prayer...not necessarily this go round..but anytime.
I can share one....
the first time two prayer warriors ...when I was on a week long spiritual retreat... prayed it over me. It was the first time I'd heard of it. After they prayed ...they smiled and laughed and said Look out...things are going to change for the BIGGER. I just assumed then with God the manifestations are quiet and deeply spiritual... not in any outward external display. I thought no more about it.
The day I got home from the retreat.... I googled my name which I do sometimes to see any public updates on my book,because my publisher did not always communicate any updates and I found out my book had won a prestigious award....that was nice! & I gave thanks to God.
Then not even one month later..I was supposed to do a reading of my book with music at this large mutli-leveled public event/place. It was for their library..a small carpeted space holding about maximum about thirty children/families.
When I got there the coordinator said we have to change the room ...there's renovation going on in the library and we also anticipate more people. I thought there were going to substitute a room of equal dimensions
Casually said..Sure..where? and they showed me
..A CONCERT HALL.
I panicked & said no-no-no it's in my contract..my contract says says the library..and house manager said..we CANT do it there and we DONT't have TIME to debate ..we need to do a tech through...YOUR SOUND CHECK and LIGHTING.... RIGHT AWAY... What kind of lighting do you want? Soft and then full up? and then a fade?
I was like ..what is she talking about..I FREAKED OUT!!
and said Oh God is this what you meant by enlarging my territory I did not expect it so soon and so big...please let this not be what you mean
but I HAD to deal suddenly with a sound check for both guitar and vocals and lighting on me during the CONCERT...I cannot believe I went through with it .
There were over a hundred people and I gave a concert,instead of the quiet intimate acoustic library.... and there were two shows full houses and client was happy and said see ..they woudn't have FIT...in the library ...
all I could think was ....God oh God you have such a sense of humor
Now I routinely have audiences over 200 plus ...for now
The second time I did a Jabez study was with my sister and it was quiet.
Wondering about this time..wondering if anyone else has thoughts/testimony on Jabez ..
This thread can open to when the divine expansions begin coming in
Blessing in abundance
May our terriorities be enlarged and the hand of God ALWAYS with us

erplexed. How did they do that? I see a vision of my own church doing some awesome things and I have had a vision/thought of me being able to help in a way that will not only get the ball rolling, but keep it rolling until it wears out, only to replace that ball with a bigger one. lol
