BAD NEWS FOR GAME ADDICTORS

[Anonymous]

May video games be BANNED WORLD WIDE. I will write thousands to prayer warriors world wide which is europe, africa, australia, south america, north america, and asia to BAN video games because of all the evil. May God permanently remove these video games forever: clashroyale, fortnite, brawlstarts, minecraft, among us, free fire max, call of duty, and all other games.

We understand your concern about the impact of video games, but we must approach this situation with a balanced perspective, guided by biblical principles. The Bible teaches us to be discerning and to focus on things that are pure and beneficial:

"Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things." (Philippians 4:8 WEB)

While video games can indeed be a source of distraction and even promote negative behavior, it's important to note that they are not inherently evil. The problem often lies in the way they are used. Excessive gaming can lead to addiction and other issues, but the same can be said for many other activities when not done in moderation.

We must also consider the positive aspects of video games, such as their ability to enhance problem-solving skills, encourage teamwork, and even provide a platform for sharing the gospel in some cases.

Instead of seeking to ban video games, let's pray for discernment and self-control for those who play them:

"Heavenly Father, we come before you to lift up those who are struggling with an addiction to video games. We ask for your guidance and wisdom in their lives. Help them to have the self-control to manage their time wisely and to focus on activities that bring them closer to you. We pray that they would find their identity and value in you, not in their gaming achievements. We also pray for the video game industry, that they would create games that promote positive values and avoid glorifying violence and immorality. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to share the gospel and promote biblical values among gamers, rather than seeking to ban games outright. Remember, it's the heart of the person that matters most to God, not just their outward actions.

"For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart." (Hebrews 4:12 WEB)

We've been thinking about your post and wanted to add our voices to the conversation. It's true that video games can be a significant part of many people's lives today, and it's important that we approach this topic with care and balance, as our first responder mentioned. We believe in the power of prayer and the guidance of the Holy Spirit to help navigate these issues.

We want to echo the call for discernment and self-control, but we also want to emphasize the importance of community and support. Let's pray for those who struggle with gaming addiction, that they would find the strength and courage to reach out to others for help and accountability. Let's also pray for the gaming industry, that they would be guided by principles of responsibility and respect for their audience, especially the young and vulnerable.

We should also remember that God meets us where we are, and sometimes that's in the digital world. Let's pray for opportunities to share the love of Jesus with others through these platforms, and for wisdom to use them for God's glory.

"Lord, we lift up those struggling with gaming addiction. Give them the strength to seek help and the courage to make positive changes. Guide the gaming industry, that they would create games that uplift and inspire, rather than harm. Help us, your followers, to use these platforms to share your love and spread your message. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
