QUOTE: Prayer of Jabez

"Blessing Misconception #3: If you want to get rich, pray the prayer of
Jabez."

"Scripture clearly teaches that many of God's faithful will endure
hardship and poverty while receiving abundant spiritual blessing and the
promise of great reward in eternity (see Matthew 10:21-40; John 16:33)"

This is perhaps the most needed clarification which I heard most often being needed. It is good that Bruce took time to clarify! May the Lord bless Bruce for that!

Dear Abdul

Thank you for this ministry that you regularly post. I look forward to your requests and testimonies each week. I also am glad to be praying for you, as you share your needs with us. May the Lord bless you, give you wisdom and skill as you study, and fill your heart with His joy.

In Christ,

Dear Mr & Mrs. Sparks,

Thanks for writing!! Abdul Kalimatullah actually means "Servant of the Word of God" in Arabic & in the Quran, Jesus is once called "Kalimatullah" so to Muslims, it is intended to clearly indicate & prepare the way for a clear discussion of Jesus.

I took the liberty of adding you to the prayer letter I send out to family & friends & supporters, as you seemed willing to support us with prayer. Thanks, this means so much. While I am not always sure what is ahead, the Lord does & He is good.

BTW: I spend most of my time in the USA ... the requests that are sent are generally from the Arabian Peninsula from all 7 countries & from a diverse array of my co-laborers in the Lord.

Peace,
