Finish Strong—A Blessing for Day 30 of Our Jabez Prayer Journey

Welcome to day 30 of our pursuit of God! What a wonderful month it’s been—so many stories of salvation, reconciliation, healing, provision, and God’s hand of protection and guidance. Let’s press in together on this final day of our annual June Jabez Prayer Challenge. Today, we’re linking arms with believers all over the world and finishing strong with the simple, focused prayer that’s changed countless lives: “God of Israel, bless me indeed, enlarge my territory, may your hand be upon me, and keep me from pain.” And God granted his request.Whether you’ve prayed this every day or are just discovering its power, let’s make it our heart’s cry—trusting that Papa God’s heart and hands are wide open toward us with kindness and generosity.Heavenly Father,Thank you for these thirty days of seeking your face together. As we step into what’s next, bless us indeed—pour out your favor and your goodness. Enlarge our hearts, our influence, and our capacity to receive, love, and serve others. Walk with us every step; may your presence be unmistakable in our homes, workplaces, and communities. Keep us from harm—physical, emotional, financial, and relational. Let your hand be upon us, guiding, protecting, and strengthening. Lord God, our Shepherd, let the blessing of Numbers 6 rest on all who’ve journeyed with us: May your face shine upon us and be gracious to us; lift up our countenance, give us supernatural grace and peace, and let your joy be our strength.Amen.As we close this 30-day journey, I want to thank my co-author, Dr. Amy Lykosh, who helped write Seek for Glory: Praying the Prayer of Jabez, first in 2022 and again this year in an updated edition. Whether you’ve journeyed with us for years or just joined in, Amy Joy and I are honored to pray for you—morning, day, and night.And now, as many priests and pastors have done for centuries, we speak this blessing:May the peace of God, which passes all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord. And the blessing of God Almighty—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—be among you and remain with you always.Amen.
