By Stephen Bouchette - Who was Jabez? Why is he mentioned? What did he do? What lessons can we discern from his story?
Pain doesn't have to be your forever place — God can reroute your path. You can be born in it and still refuse to live in it.See, Jabez didn't let his mother's experience become his identity. He took the label of pain and turned it into prayer. That's the kind of spiritual maturity that makes Heaven stop scrolling and say, “Now this one gets it.”Jabez, didn't come from royalty, wealth, or fame. He came from a label that should've limited him — but instead, it launched him.One short prayer turned a painful past into a powerful future. And if you've ever felt like life tagged you with something unfair, this story is your reminder that your beginning doesn't get to boss your ending.Closing Songs: You Say by Lauren Daigle and I Know My Name by Cece Winans & Brandon LakeSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Overcome past pain to hear God's voice clearly. The Samaritan woman's painful relationships clouded her understanding of Jesus' message until He addressed her pain, leading to transformation. Similarly, Naaman's hidden leprosy and pride hindered his healing until he humbled himself. Jabez, named "pain" by his mother, prayed for God's blessing, expanded influence, presence, protection, and to be a blessing to others. By bringing pain to Jesus, we break cycles of defeat, trust good people, and embrace God's plan, becoming blessings to others.All these questions were answered just as Perry Stone, Jonathan Cahn, John Hagee, Jentezen Franklin, Benny Hinn, Chris Oyaklihome, Steven Furtick, Joel Osteen, Joseph Prince, Joyce Meyer, Paul Dhinakaran, Samuel Patta, Ezekiah Francis, Johnson Varghese, Paul Thangiah, Mohan C Lazarus, TD Jakes and others01.)How does past pain affect our ability to hear God's voice?02.)Why do some people struggle to understand God's messages?03.)How can we overcome the pain of the past?04.)What happens when we hide our pain?05.)How does pain influence our relationships?06.)Why did Naaman struggle to receive his healing?07.)What does Jabez's story teach about overcoming pain?08.)How can we stop pain from defining our future?09.)What role does prayer play in overcoming pain?10.)How can we become a blessing despite our pain?

1 Chronicles 4:9-10 Jabez was more honorable than his brothers; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in PAIN.” Jabez called upon the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that you would bless me and enlarge my border, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from harm so that it might not bring me pain!” And GOD granted what he asked.
We're celebrating what God is building—both on our church slab and in our lives.
Scripture Messages - Ephesians 3:14-21,1 Chronicles 4:9-10
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.

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.

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

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. Alright, let's read some names, shall we?1 Chronicles 1 - 1:07 . 1 Chronicles 2 - 7:12 . 1 Chronicles 3 - 13:26 . 1 Chronicles 4 - 17:00 .
