From out of the blue, incongruously buried within a long list of biblical genealogies, this prayer of Jabez can be found. ( 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 )
This is a prayer for self; but it can also work for any one, and for any or all nations.
“Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, "I gave birth to him in pain." 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.” ( 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 )
Jabez Prayer Warriors pray for a day when all the nations of this world might join hands together to pray and receive God’s blessings, enlargements of their territories, God’s guidance, and protection from harm so that they will be free from pain.

Dancing With the Lord!
Brother,
As I told you in worship services this morning; you delivered one of the best sermon's this morning that I have ever heard. I have a few years up on you, and I say Amen, from my own experiences and studies. All that you preached was absolutely true. You have a good grasp on those scriptures. And I must say, that you deliver them with tremendous force and sincerity. I love to hear my brothers in Christ preaching from their hearts, and accurately in God's word. We also appreciate all the "little" things that you do for us behind the scenes. I don't know how you manage it all. Besides delivering an excellent sermon this morning; you freed up our professional preacher and evangelist, to help enlarge our territory even more.
When it comes to the Jabez prayer; my prayers are turning more and more to, "Thank you Lords." It is hard to ask God for these things, while we can see with our own eyes and ears that He is is already answering them. And it's not even 40 days yet! We might turn more of our requests now over to Thank you's and how much we look forward and request continuation of His taking our hand, not only in keeping us from harm, and freeing us from pain, --but for dancing with us!
