Scripture Messages - Ephesians 3:14-21,1 Chronicles 4:9-10

Pastor Jacquie Leveron delivers Part 14 of the series "Impacting Prayers."Scripture 2 Chronicles 20:12-13Support the show

1 Chronicles 4 records the descendants of Judah. One of the notable descendants was Jabez, whose prayer to God and subsequent blessing is told in verses 9-10. What we learn is that Yahweh is ever attentive to the pleas of His children both small and great. We know nothing about Jabez except for his prayer seeking for the Almighty to bless and prosper him. Next the record tells of Simeon's descendants - perhaps we would have expected those of Reuben. But Reuben lost the position of firstborn through a disgraceful act (Genesis 49 verses 3-4). Ezekiel 17 records the parable of the two eagles. The eagles were those kings of Judah who were promoted to prominence by the king of Babylon. But the eagles did not maintain faith with Nebuchadnezzar but broke the covenant which they had made with the Babylonian monarch. Those kings rebelled and were savagely dealt with by the king of Babylon. Our God expects His children to be truthful at all times verses Matthew 5 verses 33-37; Zechariah 8 verses 16-17; Revelation 22 verses 14-15. Yahweh will exalt the lowly and abase the lofty verses James 4 verses 7-10; 1 Peter 5 verses 5-6. In Luke 13 the enemies of the Lord maliciously attack him by drawing his attention to the Galileans, who Pilate had slaughtered as they were sacrificing in Jerusalem. Jesus tells his audience of Judeans of a recent event where a wall in Siloam - Jerusalem's backyard - fell on many Judeans. Did it happen because they were bad sinners? No, on both counts - but both tragedies provided opportunities for reflection and repentance, as any report of suffering does for us today. This is followed in chapter 13 by the parable of the barren fig tree which represents Israel's failure to bring forth fruit to God. Jesus next, on the Sabbath day heals a woman with an unclean spirit. The parables of the mustard seed and the leaven come next in the record. Then the record speaks of the parable of the narrow door, through which every disciple must strive to enter. Our Lord Jesus Christ laments over Jerusalem - to be torn down stone by stone as the leprous house. He will be welcomed in the Kingdom, when they would say, "Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord" (Psalm 118 verses 26). Chapter 14 of Luke begins with Jesus healing a man on the Sabbath day. That man had clearly been planted as a test for Jesus. Would he heal on the Sabbath day? The Lord was invited to speak at a dinner for Pharisees and Jesus gives advice in the parable of the wedding feast. Then came another parable about the great banquet to which each invited class found excuses not to attend. These people who were called by the gospel to come to the wedding feast of the Son of God all adjudged themselves unworthy of eternal life in the kingdom. As a result of their rejection, we have graciously been offered a place. Two parables follow which tell us that as disciples of Jesus we must always count the cost of discipleship and wholeheartedly pursue that goal. Every disciple of our Lord must accept the peace that our Sovereign offers to us through the emissaries of the gospel and then make peace with Him verses Ephesians 2 verses 11-22. The chapter concludes with the need for zest and salt among our Master's disciples. Salt was an essential ingredient of every sacrifice and spoke of keeping covenant with the Almighty. And so, it is a vital component of the disciple's faithful walk before his/her Sovereign leading onto His gracious bestowing of eternal life on His saints. Salt speaks of sincerity in Christ's disciples as we are told in Colossians 4 verses 6.

Find out what it means to petition God with our prayers. Pastor Jacquie Leveron brings us Part 13 of the series "Impacting Prayers."Scripture 2 Chronicles 20:12-13Support the show

Guest Speaker Nathan Bumgarner focused his message on the theme of powerful prayer, using Jabez's story from 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 as a foundation. He emphasized four key aspects of Jabez's prayer: a request for blessing, an enlargement of influence, an assurance of God's presence, and a plea for protection. Nathan highlighted the importance of seeking God's blessings not merely for personal benefit but to serve as conduits for His work, thereby expanding God's influence for His glory. He underscored the necessity of relying on God's presence, especially as influence grows, to guide and empower efforts to impact communities and share the gospel effectively.

In this powerful episode of More Than Conquerors, Terry and Reneé Mize share how the gospel lifts people from shame, despair, and hopelessness into dignity and destiny. From the story of Jabez (1 Chronicles 4), to breaking free from generational cycles, to the mission field where the gospel transforms entire communities — you'll be inspired to see how God's Word changes everything. The gospel doesn't just save — it restores honor, dignity, and hope to every person who receives it.

Dr. Kenny Baldwin- PCC Opening Convocation Fall '25

Jabez is only in two verses in the Bible but has HUGE impact! Through Jabez, we see that prayer is not about informing God of what He doesn't know—it's about inviting Him into what you can't control. Our God still answers prayers and wants us to make our requests known to Him! STAY CONNECTED Website: www.oasisphx.comFacebook: Oasis Community ChurchInstagram: @oasisphx

Jabez didn't settle for an ordinary life—he cried out to God, and God answered.

Get inspired to pray boldly and trust God fully in this powerful message!

Jeff Hoover sits down with Russell County PVA Tim Popowell to talk about how property assessments have changed over the past 15 years, why values have climbed, and what that means for homeowners. They discuss the homestead exemption, the appeals process, and how technology has shaped the PVA office. Tim also highlights growth in areas like Eli and Jabez and shares resources available to the public through the PVA office.

Das Gebet des Jabez kann Grenzen überwinden! Wer es betet, traut Gott mehr zu als bisher. Dabei geht es nicht um den eigenen Vorteil, sondern um Glauben und Hingabe. Wünschst du dir, dass der Heilige Geist durch dich an anderen wirkt? Dass du im Schmerz nicht zynisch, sondern stärker wirst? Dann könnte das Gebet des Jabez auch dein Gebet sein! In dieser Folge erklärt Bayless Conley, wie Gott dich aus Begrenzungen befreien und dir Segen und Einfluss schenken will.

The Prayer Of Jabez | Pastor John WhiteheadWatch The Video Version

Pastor Jared Lyons continues our five-part series, The Prayers of the People, with sermon two.

Lesson presented at The Crossings Church Collinsville in Collinsville, IL – a non-denominational church that meets Sunday mornings at 2002 Mall Street, Collinsville, IL just outside of St. Louis.

In this transformative session, Rev Paul Jeyachandran shares the key to breaking limitations and fulfilling your calling — accessing God's supernatural power.We're not called to serve God in our own strength. If what you're doing is fully possible in your own ability, you don't need God — and that's not the life He's called you to.

Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm that it may not pain me!" And God granted him what he requested. (1 Chron. 4:10)Read more here.Support the show

What if the thing holding you back isn't your past, your pain, or your failures but your belief that you're not meant for more? Inspired by Coach Carter's powerful story and the bold prayer of Jabez, this message challenges the labels we wear and the limits we place on our own lives. Through biblical insight, practical examples, and personal reflection, we unpack how to break free from fear, step into your God-given purpose, and live beyond what you've ever imagined. You don't need perfect faith, just the courage to believe again. It's time to trade your labels for God's glory.

Sometimes the best theology is found on the back deck. A small bird on a simple patrol caught the attention of a friend, and in that moment the truth came to light. That mockingbird, later named “Jabez,” seemed to be extending its reach, enlarging its territory. And just like that, we're reminded of a prayer tucked quietly into 1 Chronicles 4:10, a prayer that asks God not for riches or comfort, but for blessing, for growth, for protection, and for freedom from pain. But it's not self-centered, it's a vision of hope in the face of the world's curse, a longing that our lives might be vessels of blessing for others.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.

Alright, real talk: this episode probably isn't going to change your life, but there are some interesting little nuggets to be found in between the names and genealogies. For instance, there's, “The Prayer of Jabez,” right? which, if you didn't live through 90's Christendom, is the title of a book that says you can be blessed with prosperity if you pray prayers like Jabez. Although the author probably lined his pockets with that book, the section on Jabez simply describes something that happened; it isn't prescribed for all believers. You might as well say, “Pray Solomon's prayer and you'll be blessed with wisdom, a kingdom, and a temple!” It doesn't quite work like that.

Let us pray the prayer of Jabez today! Who is Jabez? We only read about him once in the Bible as he prays a bold and powerful prayer to God. Jabez whose name means pain chooses to look to God and not his past pains. He refuses to take on the labels other  people place on him. Instead Jabez prays to God saying  God to bless me, expand my territory (influence). He says Lord let your hand (presence and power) be with me and keep me from harm and pain. The Bibles tells us that God answered his prayer. We encourage you today in whatever area of your life or as a whole that you need help/expansion/presence and protection from pain, pray the prayer of Jabez and open your heart to the presence of God who wants to interact with you and to answer your prayer.To support the ministry of Melbourne Inclusive Church go to: www.michurch.org.au/giveMelbourne Inclusive Church boldly and proudly proclaims Christ's equal love for all people regardless of their ability, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, age, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture.Melbourne Inclusive Church is part of the EMI Global family of churches.

Jabez Background : 1 Chronicles 4:9-10(06/18/25)

1 Chronicles 4:9-10 Dr Egerton shares from his heart on the prayer of Jabez.  

The book of 1 Chronicles begins with chapters of genealogy all the way back to the very first man, Adam. Long lists of strange names that today seem rather unimportant to us. 4 chapters in, after reading over names of fathers and their sons, sprinkled with a few wives and daughters names, there's a surprising […]
