Influence Is Greater Than Possession

Jabez’s prayer for enlarged territory was not about acquiring more land or possessions, but about expanding his influence for God’s purposes. God desires to use your life as a testimony to His goodness, making you an ambassador of blessing to those around you. Influence is not about power or control, but about living in such a way that others see God’s work in you and are drawn to Him. Whether in your family, workplace, or community, your life can be a billboard declaring, “God is good, all the time.”
Psalm 37:4-5 (ESV)
"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act."
Who in your life needs to see God’s goodness through your actions this week, and how can you intentionally influence them for Christ?
