Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
Even well-versed Biblical scholars might be perplexed if asked about Jabez, a little-known man listed in 1 Chronicles, chapter 4. Yet his simple petition is the cornerstone of The Prayer of Jabez and has become a call to live a more "blessed life" for countless readers.

The prayer is a simple one: "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."

In an era where many Christians shy away from anything that smacks of "name it and claim it," author Bruce Wilkinson alleviates misgivings by putting the prayer into perspective. Wilkinson, founder and president of Walk thru the Bible Ministries and a popular speaker for Promise Keepers, writes in a persuasive, conversational style that will woo even the most cynical reader. He has used the Jabez prayer for more than 30 years, and testifies enthusiastically to the changes it has wrought in his own life. Wilkinson challenges readers to recite the Jabez prayer every morning and keep a record of the changes that occur. The power, he emphasizes, is not in the prayer itself, but "rather, the power is in what you believe will happen as a result of the prayer, and the action you take." Wilkinson makes a convincing case. --Cindy Crosby

Product Description
Dr. Bruce Wilkinson, president of Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, takes readers to 1 Chronicles 4:10 to discover how they can release God's miraculous power and experience the blessings God longs to give each of us. The life of Jabez, one of the Bible's most overlooked heroes of the faith, bursts from unbroken pages of genealogies in an audacious, four-part prayer that brings him an extraordinary measure of divine favor, anointing, and protection. Readers who commit to offering the same prayer on a regular basis will find themselves extravagantly blessed by God, and agents of His miraculous power, in everyday life.

Do you want to be extravagantly blessed by God?

Are you ready to reach for the extraordinary? To ask God for the abundant blessings He longs to give you? Join Bruce Wilkinson to discover how the remarkable prayer of a little-known Bible hero can release God’s favor, power, and protection. You’ll see how one daily prayer can help you leave the past behind -- and break through to the life you were meant to live.

5 out of 5 stars Transform Your Perception of God   July 29, 2008
If you have ever been exposed to a negative image of God, then you must read this book. This book will change your perception and you'll find a kind, loving God who wants everything good to come to you. The practice of asking God for what you want is encouraged in a prayer that will change your life. The belief that God wants everything positive for your life transcends off the pages into your heart. Bruce examines the belief that giving to others will make your life abundant and fulfilled. Have faith, ask God and believe. After reading this book, you know God has answers and miracles just for you.


5 out of 5 stars best book ever   July 29, 2008
one of the best books i have ever read..was able to read it in one sitting could not put it down..the prayers are so helpful


1 out of 5 stars Trinidad?   April 7, 2008
I think my favorite part was where he told a group of seminarians to ask God for the island of Trinidad.

This prosperity gospel nonsense is the most destructive popular theology to come out in the past hundred years, and this time it's drawn from an obscure genealogical table in a faux-historical book in the Ketuvim. The implication of this book, of course, is that the prayers for mercy rising up from good Christians in impoverished Africa are just, well, not sincere enough.



5 out of 5 stars prayer of Jabez   February 22, 2008
most powerful, and lifechanging books. God listens.
i can't keep this book on my shelf. i must have given
away over 20 copies.and will probably continue to share
more than that.



1 out of 5 stars Nonsensical booklet   February 8, 2008
Another ploy from a smart, savvy t author to sell a quick fixer for needy souls. Pity they prey on people's spiritual need and begin a while marketing campaign using one verse of the Bible. Shame on you, money makers!
