Pray Like Jabez
Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.—1 Chronicles 4:10 (NIV)
Today's daily devotion
Lenten Blessings
But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.—Matthew 6:17–18 (NIV)
Embrace the opportunity to engage in practices of fasting, prayer, and self-examination. Open your heart to God’s transformative work within you. Look forward to moments of intimacy with Him, and seek His guidance and grace as you journey toward renewal and restoration.
Dear Lord, may this time of reflection bring about a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper connection to Your presence in my life.
