Bible Reading: 1 Timothy 6:9-10
Memory Verse: Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless. Ecclesiastes 5:10 (NIV)
When the abnormal becomes normal, then a spirit is involved. Immediately this young man was paid #250,000 ($625), he went to a gambling shop and came back with nothing. He lost an opportunity that could have made him a multimillionaire in less than 10years had he invested wisely in a profitable business. Alike Dangote, the richest man in Africa started with about #500,000. Your opportunity shall not be wasted, in Jesus name. A generation of fast money makers who wants 100% returns in less than one month by doing little or nothing is fast emerging. Isn’t that a weird mindset?
Friend, be patient with yourself, your God and your destiny time. A maize seed takes 3 months to germinate and completes its entire life cycle while a mustard seed spends many years germinating before it completes its entire life cycle. Which do you subscribe to? Many students lurk around game houses and gambling shops during school hours. Even able bodied fathers do same these days.
They are all desperate to make it big and quick either by hook or by crook. No! Enduring wealth doesn’t happen that way. It must be precept upon precept; one step then another. It is one thing to “hit it big”, it is another thing to develop the capacity to manage wealth via process. The latter is more important. Ask yourself: why do I really want to be rich? Gambling has become a very big business. Both the rich and the poor get themselves involved. Many casinos are full of people who play cards, and gamble their properties, life time savings and investments away in one seating. Gambling is more than an addiction.
It is powered by hell. An evil spirit is involved. Haven’t you heard students who gambled their school fees, or house rents away? Wait until there is a match between big European club sides and you will see able-bodied men and sometimes women gamble their fortune for people or clubs that don’t know where they exist on planet Earth. Surely, an evil spirit is involved. Are you a gambler? Repent today. Enrol for deliverance. Change your circle of friends. Stay with your family instead of going to football centres to watch your favorite teams. Put your valuables, investment and money in charge of a trustee or in a bank until you are delivered. Get your mind profitably working for God and servicing humanity. Receive divine wisdom, in Jesus name.
Quote: Gambling is the surest way of getting nothing for something.
Prophetic Decree: I bind and cast out the spirit of gambling from your life, in Jesus name.
