Any Religious Guys Pray Over Your Bets?

[ttrace35]

Lot of religious talk lately. I wonder if any guys say a prayer or a blessing before hitting "confirm. God works miracles. Look at Tebow. I can remember a game denver vs chicago. I had denver and chicago was up. All they had to do was run out the clock. One more first down and would have been able to run the clock out. Forte runs for the first down but fumbles and denver recovers. Kicks a fg and wins. I know many remember this game. Surely God did this. Maybe prayer is the key. I am going to try this. Maybe a thread. Says no where in the bible that gambling is bad or a sin. Amen

No, should not pray for bets. If you find yourself in that situation it is time to quit gambling. Why would God contribute to your disease? That is like saying if you are a druggie, and prayed to God to find some money to buy drugs.

Whoever loves money never has money enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with his income. This too is meaningless. (Ecclesiastes 5:10, NIV)

"No servant can serve two masters. [Jesus said.] Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money." (Luke 16:13, NIV)

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. (1 Timothy 6:10, NIV)

I dont agree with the analogy. Drugs are bad. And dont help you become prosperous. Gambling winnings help you become proserous.

[Sam Odom]

For the few here with retirement vehicles in the markets YOU ARE GAMBLING

Both are an addiction that are detrimental to your health. Drugs can be good to, but when abused, they are not. Gambling when abused, can cause all sorts of problems. Moderation won't create a problem, but excessive gambling will cause all sorts of negative side effects.

[ttrace35]

Seaweed i dont see a direct mention of gambling. Preachers are rich and they pray a lot. Like the guy in the bahamas that died yesterday in the plane crash. Pastor had his own lear jet. Tracer wants a leer jet too.

[jjgold]

I use to

Athough Bible says no

[DOM_Toretto]

I pray to be the best I can be, to make good decisions, stay out of trouble (I ain't eva goin back to jail), and to spread happiness to the ones I care about.

And trust me, when I'm winning, it's much easier to spread happiness to those I care about.

Once when I was overbetting I got down and got mad and decided to go Martingale to get it back. I prayed to the Gambling Gods that if they were benevolent, I would never bet stupid again. Put it on the under on Baylor-Oklahoma State and it cashed. I credit them for the win along with the 28 degree weather. Thank you Gambling Gods, Oh Mighty Ones!!

[TheLangster]

what happens if you are praying for the under and some other shmuck is praying for the over? what then?

does god interrupt the game so they both get a refund?


does the team that has the most people praying for it win?

Depends on who is praying harder and who the Gambling Gods love more.

there are no gambling gods, that is propaganda perpetrated by the vegas agenda. there is only one true god, revealed to us through the embodiment of his son Jesus Christ, praised be thy name, amen.

maybe the side that god has his money on wins, I doubt that god would let his bet lose just cause some clueless degenerate went all in on the jets

[seaborneq]

I try not too. I have lost so much over the last 15+ years that I don't think even prayer would help me on some of my bad beats.

[mcdonae101]

i say "please god" at least 15-20 times on a normal college football saturday and nfl sunday. does that count?

[Jayvegas420]

After this weekend I am certain that Jesus is not an LSU backer.

[Snicklefritz]

In order for God to perform miracles on sporting events, He requires a higher number of prayers on the winning side, than the losing one.

Oh, they exist. Don't go falling for that one true God stuff. There are many and they are all bastards.

[Ralphie Halves]

There's gotta be a saint out there that you can pray to that would be a better option. Patron saint of chance, or opportunity, or something like that.

Depending on what it's for, I pray to different saints. Based on the idea that God doesn't have time for my BS, and the saints are probably just happy somebody remembered them. Hey, it's just as plausible as anything else out there.

[jjgold]

I would think gambling does more financial damage than drugs

[Big Bear]

i do not think it is right to ask god to make you win a specific wager. That is not something you should ask for.

However i see nothing wrong with asking god to give you the brain power, confidence, and knowledge to trust your gut and handicap games to your best ability so that you can reach your full potential and later give back to the community.

Just remember to stay humble. Always give thanks and dont take shit for granted.

[The Kraken]

The more bets you win, the bigger your 10% is. God knows this, of course he wants you to win.

[ttrace35]

Good point krak. You saying i should start paying my 10 percent weekly at the local church?

[MoMoneyMoVaughn]

Get the fuk a hold of yourselves men. Threads like this are a downward spiral.

Spend more time capping, less time bible-ing.

[The Kraken]

Tracer maybe one week. After that, you should see a sharp increase in win%. Then don't go back. Pocket the profits

Corbins prayers usually end up with same result.... the gloryhole

[boomer62]

It is really amazing at the response of many when the word "GOD" is mentioned.....Many deny, make insecure jokes,act tough but are just separated from "OUR CREATOR" our "SOURCE", the "UNIVERSE"..... Be CAREFUL because when you are very low and in a very bad place and down on your knees,,,,THERE IS ONLY ONE SOURCE TO TURN TO AND THE OMNIPOTENT IS ALWAYS THERE AND ALWAYS FAITHFUL.
