The document summarizes the prayer of Jabez from 1 Chronicles 4:9-10. Jabez prayed that God would bless him, enlarge his borders, have his hand upon Jabez, and keep him from evil. The prayer is broken down into four parts: 1) bless me, 2) enlarge my borders, 3) have your hand upon me, and 4) keep me from evil. The document encourages praying for others and being available for God to use and strengthen. It suggests being willing to attempt things you can't do on your own and that greater spiritual significance brings greater temptation from evil.
