DECREE A THING, IT SHALL COME TO PASS conclusion

By looking at how to decree the prayer of Jabez. The prayer of Jabez was amongst several prayers uttered in the bible that
effectively moved the hands of God and God answered.

It was one of such prayers that was strategically rendered to God out of desperation, need and desire.

Jabez was a descendant of Judah and the name Jabez was given to him as a result of the pain that his mother endured
during his birth.

His name was thus affiliated with pain
and sorrow. Name defined a person's future in biblical terms and Jabez was determined to rid himself of the
sorrow and pain associated with him.

The entire prayer of Jabez was thus triggered off as a result of the dire need
of ridding himself of the stigma that was associated with his life.

He applied certain strategic approach in his plea to God, first he asked God to bless him, secondly to enlarge his territory, thirdly to be with him and fourthly
to keep him from harm.

Note the sequence of his approach. He cried out to God because his name was
drenched in sorrow and affliction. God answered his prayers.

The success that he enjoyed outweighed the sorrows of his beginning. If you are facing constant challenges, persistent problems or impossible situations in
your life, perhaps it is time to resort to doing exactly what Jabez did.

Issue a decree by using these powerful
prayer points. Jabez had confidence in the power of God, as such he placed a demand on Gods power.

While this prayer is truly effective in moving Gods hand and has indeed proved effective over the decades to many, it must be emphasised that it is not a harbinger of prosperity, good fortune or wealth as it is sometimes made to believe.
Nothing happens outside of Gods will.

Jabez applied his faith and made a passionate plea to God and was
subsequently able to defy the course attached to his hopeless name and dysfunctional beginning.

This was what made the prayer of Jabez stand out. You have every right to do the same by virtue of the power of decree
that you carry.

Go ahead and issue a decree 'OH THAT
THOU WOULDEST BLESS ME INDEED, AND ENLARGE MY COAST, AND THAT THINE HAND MIGHT BE WITH ME, AND THAT THOU
WOULDEST KEEP ME FROM EVIL, THAT IT MAY NOT GRIEVE ME' 1Chr4:10. God bless you all.
