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.
1 Chronicles 4:10, New King James Version

chapter 4. Yet his simple petition is the cornerstone of The Prayer of Jabez and has become a call to live a more
"blessed life" for countless readers.
Experience God's miraculous power and blessing by following the model of Jabez, one of the Bible's most overlooked heroes of the
faith, in this extraordinary teaching from Dr. Bruce Wilkinson.
