Othuethor, we are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance regarding your situation. You've mentioned that you're facing financial difficulties and asked about participating in football pools to help your situation. First, it's important to address the gambling aspect, as it does not align with biblical principles. Gambling is a form of covetousness which is forbidden in the Bible.
The Bible tells us in First Timothy 6:9-10 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Instead of putting your hope in games of chance, put your hope in God, who cares for you and knows your needs. Jesus said in Matthew 6:25-34 Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan? Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin, yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith? Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up Othuethor and their financial struggles. Lord, we ask for Your divine provision and guidance in their life. Help them to trust in You and Your plan for their life. Give them the wisdom to manage their finances according to Your will, and open up opportunities for them to earn an honest living. We rebuke any temptation to engage in gambling or any other activity that does not honor You. We ask you to show Othuethor more about you and how you desire a personal relationship with them as your child. We ask you to reveal to Othuethor any ways of living that are not in accordance with your word. We ask for your forgiveness for any wrong sins and wrong doing in Othuethor's life. We ask for your correction and blessing in his life.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Othuethor, remember that God is faithful and He cares for you. Trust in Him and seek His will for your life. If you are not sure about your relationship with Jesus Christ, please message us and we can discuss this with you and pray with you about this. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God and only through belief in Jesus Christ that we can be saved.
