“Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.” I Chronicles‬ ‭4:9-10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

A supernatural turnaround is inherently a miracle; without the miraculous, there is nothing supernatural about it. The Bible offers numerous examples of people whose lives experienced such miraculous changes.

Jabez’s situation was deeply rooted in his foundation. His mother, who cursed him, was likely deceased by the time he realized his problem had a spiritual origin. Despite his hard work and influential connections, nothing could change his circumstances. With all other options exhausted, he turned to God.

Jabez prayed fervently. The brief prayer recorded in the Bible is a summary; such deep problems require more than a few lines of prayer. He cried out loudly, prayed with groanings, and likely fasted as well.

Prayer is a powerful tool for supernatural turnarounds. If initial prayers seem ineffective, more prayers are needed. Persist in prayer until there is a breakthrough. If a situation remains unchanged, it is not your Pastor’s fault; it indicates a need for more earnest prayer. Continue praying and crying out to God until your situation transforms for the better.

Prayer:

“Father, turn my situation around supernaturally. Let everyone who sees me acknowledge that it is Your miraculous hand at work in my life, in Jesus’ name.”
