There is power in a name - Part 1
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Español)
I want to share with you a very interesting character in Scripture, it is Jabez who appears very briefly in Scripture and yet contains a series of very profound teachings about the power of prayer, the power to envision in the Spirit new possibilities, the power of positive confession, the power to declare our dreams before God and turn them into bases for God's goodwill and favor for our lives, and how the faith of a man and His cry can change his destiny and can even change generational curses that would have condemned him to a very different destiny, very dark, but that through the confession of faith and through the visualization of possibilities in God ends up having a totally different future .
In First Chronicles chapter 4 we have a mention of this fascinating character. It says in verse 9 of First Chronicles chapter 4: "And Jabes was more illustrious than his brothers, whom his mother called Jabes saying: to birth with pain. And Jabesh invoked the God of Israel saying: oh if you would give me a blessing and expand my territory, and if your Hand were with me, and would deliver me from evil so that I did not harm me, and God granted him what he asked.
