Two places where the scripture speaks of enlarging tents: Jabez: 1 Chronicles 4.9,10, Israel: Isaiah 54: 2

The first one is a prayer for God to broaden the territory, enlarge the tent, enlarge blessing, influence, finances, people. This is the desire for increased responsibility, increased works done through the power of God, increased mouths fed, increased resources to pour out on the poor.

The second one is God saying: open your eyes! the enlargement is coming... broaden your tent, sieze opportunities to enlarge your territory that I am bringing! think and plan in a way that prepares for enlargement! It is coming! Believe! Do not hold back

Who will be in my tent?

The poor, the helpless, the destitute, the hungry, the needy. Luke 14: 12-14, James 2:5
