*BLESS ME INDEED BEFORE ENLARGEMENT*

*By Pastor E O Gabriel  09 July 2024:Share*

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, 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! And God granted him that which he requested - *‭1 Chronicles 4:10 KJV‬*

*One of the Lessons we can learn from the Prayer of Jabez is that God must take care of the Anti-Enlargement Forces in our lives before our Enlargement can begin to find Expression.*

*Jabez called on God to bless him indeed before he requested an Enlargement.*

*Why did he make the Request?*

*(1)* He was asking for a removal of Anti-Enlargement Forces operating in his Life. 

• His mother, through Negative Utterances, had caused evil forces to work against him.

• Jacob similarly released Anti-Enlargement Forces against Reuben - *Genesis 49:3-4*

The Tribe of Reuben was going into extinction before Moses removed the forces that opened the way for his Enlargement - *Deuteronomy 33:6*

*(2)* Enlargement is easy when the forces of Heaven and the Earth are working in your Favour. 

• When Isaac blessed Jacob, he said God give you the dew of Heaven, the Fatness of the Earth, and Plenty of corn and wine - *Genesis 27:28*

• This Blessing from Isaac opened the door of Enlargement for Jacob. 

The Bible says, Jacob increased Exceedingly - *Genesis 30:43*

*Therefore, when God blesses indeed, Enlargement is sure.*

*Prayer:*

Father, in Jesus Name, Please bless me and my family indeed in Jesus Christ Name.
