ICEJ Report: The Prayer of Jabez
Published on: 12.1.2014Expanding the influence of the Kingdom of God
There is a beautiful prayer in the Bible that captures the essence of God’s will for us to be an influence, and to enlarge our influence on earth, for His glory and for His Kingdom. In I Chronicles 4, Jabez asks God to enlarge his sphere of influence to be more effective in His Kingdom.
The ICEJ has prayed this prayer, and like Jabez, our prayers have been answered by heaven, allowing us to be an influence and make a difference among the people in Israel. The ICEJ’s Haifa Home for Holocaust survivors is one such example of a project the Lord has given us that is not only changing lives, but impacting many Israelis with our acts of kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity.
But, we want to do more, to enlarge the work and expand the Haifa home to help more survivors in need. To do this, a further $500,000 is now needed.
You can play a part in this wonderful project with a donation of any amount and by lifting up this work in your prayers.
