Do you know what? You can pray anywhere and at any time! The Bible says, "pray without ceasing." One practice I have been doing for several years is to pray for my family as I back out of the driveway each morning. I pray the simple "Prayer of Jabez" that is recorded in the Bible, 1 Chronicles 4:9-10.
"[9] There was a man named Jabez who was more distinguished than any of his brothers. His mother named him Jabez because his birth had been so painful. [10] He was the one who prayed to the God of Israel, Oh, that you would bless me and extend my territory! Please be with me in all that I do, and keep me from all trouble and pain!"
And God granted him his request.
The for things that I pray for my life, my wife, my children and my ministry are:
- Bless us!
- Enlarge our territory!
- Lord, let your hand be with us!
- Keep us from pain and harm!
Do you know what else? God granted Jabez his request. He will also grant your request if you will join Him in prayer.
