If we follow this thread to its logical conclusion, we would spend every waking minute listing all of the possible blessings we can think of in case God has one of them in store for us that might be missed if we don't speak it into existence.

The author suggests that we can access God's blessings by ritually praying certain words connected to Jabez, a little known Bible character. What counts is knowing who you want to be and asking for it I got as far as page 20 in this 'Christian' best seller, then I read the following Bruce and his wife, Darlene, live in Atlanta, Georgia, and have three children.
