BE GOD’S BLESSING!

1 Chronicles 4:10 – Devotional

1 Chronicles 4:10

“And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.”

Several years ago I made this prayer of Jabez my prayer. I was anxious for the Lord to expand my territory of ministry. Little did I realize that He had a world-wide ministry in which I would write daily encouragement that would reach hearts of people I have never met and will probably never meet until we are gathered together in heaven. What a day of rejoicing that will be!

It is on this date that I celebrate my 89th birthday. Across the years I stand in awe at the way the Lord has answered my prayer. I had never imagined that I would still be involved in active ministry at this age, but the Lord had other plans for me I look at the date above and it causes me to bow in humble adoration before the Lord Jesus Christ.

I want to thank each of you who write from time to time and share how God has used a particular E-Votional to meet a need in your life. Keep me in your prayers!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
