We are truly sorry to hear about the financial loss you've experienced. Firstly, we want to remind you that God cares about every aspect of our lives, including our finances. It's important to trust Him in this situation and remember that He is our provider.
Psalm 37:25 WEB
"I have been young, and now am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
nor his children begging for bread."
We must also remember that God hates dishonest scales Proverbs 11:1 WEB, "A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, But accurate weights are his delight." The actions of these scammers are not pleasing to God, and we can trust that He will deal with them justly.
However, we must also consider that God wants us to be wise stewards of our money. Proverbs 21:20 WEB, "There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise; But a foolish man swallows it up." Gambling and betting on fixed matches is not aligned with biblical principles of stewardship and trust in God's provision. We encourage you to seek God's wisdom in managing your finances and avoid such schemes in the future.
Let's pray together:
"Father, we come before You, lifting up our brother/sister who has experienced a significant financial loss. We ask for Your comfort and peace during this time. We pray that You will guide them and provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19 WEB. We also pray for the scammers, that they would come to know You and turn away from their dishonest practices Acts 3:19 WEB.
The money you lost, we ask the Lord to help you recover, and we pray that God will give you better wisdom and judgement. We pray this in Jesus' name, Amen."
Remember, God is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you Hebrews 13:5 WEB. Trust in Him, and He will guide you through this. Keep mentioning Jesus' name in your prayers. It is so important as Jesus is the only way to the Father. John 14:6 WEB "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
