So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
Royal blood

1 Chronicles 4:9-10
Jabez was more honorable than his brothers.

Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
Faith pleases God. God loves for us to ask Him for big thing because we are honouring Him

Ask for big things and God will exceed them
Those who pray the prayer of blessings is more honourable than his brothers
Ask for big things and God will have to exceed that
