1 Chronicles 4:10
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.
The Word of God is listing people, many people in the Tribe of Judah.
Suddenly, out of the blue, God announces prayer given, prayer heard and prayer Answered.
The prayer is in five parts:
1. Blessings, willing blessing.
2. Enlarge is territory - that's a lot of Blessing.
3. That God would stay, dwell, continue.
4. Being kept from harm, safety.
5. Free from pain.
This is what we would all like to ask Father God.
The people of God who have studied answered Prayer and miracles tell us not to try to yank God into place. His Willing Blessings flow. We ask, like David did, God's Overwhelming Mercy. Like the Parable of the Ten Talents, we believe in God's Goodness. His desire to bring us the Kingdom of God.
Jesus expands upon Jabez's prayer in one statement:
Luke 12:31-32
Seek His kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.
Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.
Fear. We have had a lot of fear. Fear our family would suffer. Death. Illness. Cost. Bills. Lack of safety. Becoming worry for one another. Perhaps, we have pushed down our concerns to provide safety for one another, and we did not feel showing worry as we did feel our own concerns. Maybe the states with more Covid-19 are worried. Maybe for the first time the younger generation is worried.
God says He will deal with pain. We can trust God is hearing the prayers of us all. We can trust God to give Him our sincere emotions and cares.
Every day.
Abba, Our Father,

So we fasted and petitioned our God about this,

Hebrews 11:6
And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God
must believe that He exists
and that He rewards those who seek Him.

and that He rewards those who seek Him.
Your Living Word:
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow (all You have Written)
all the days of life,
and we shall dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
You are merciful to Your Children, You call Beloved.
From the small blessings to the great ones -
Help us to reason to our thanksgiving.
One sincere part of Gratitude - lifts our burdens.
Help us to find what is our Blessing.
We ask You to put the Name of Jesus Christ upon us
and we are Blessed of God.
and we are Blessed of God.
Jesus Christ,
Please pray for us, Speak Your Word, bring more Heaven to earth.
We ask Your Abundant and Flowing Blessings upon us.
Keep us safe from disasters, quieten storms and keep the Oceans safe.
Help us to seek You first and Your Kingdom.
To Live Love, Joy and Peace. Uphold those we Love.
We Trust You.
We Trust You.
We ask for the virus to end and Joy in Recovery.
We pray for Your Healing Word.
Your Help for a vaccine.
