Book ReviewThe Prayer of Jabez, by Bruce WilkinsonThe book, The Prayer of Jabez: Breaking Through to the Blessed Life, is a short work and a compelling read. It is based on a brief, two-verse Biblical account of an obscure ancient man, Jabez. All that is known of Jabez is recorded in these two versus, which includes a short bio, a brief prayer, and a concise pronouncement of the result. The book greatly expands on these two verses, informing readers of the man, his life, and his character, before delving into his concise prayer to God. Only five lines long, Jabez's succinct entreaty carries with it great meaning and significant applications for us living several thousands of years later. Throughout the book, Dr. Wilkerson shares his own thirty-year journey with the prayer of Jabez, educating and inspiring readers in the process. Although Jabez lived a long time ago, Jabez and his prayer is still relevant today, being insightful and instructive to all who will consider it's deeper meaning and applications.
