What do I tell people about luck good or bad

I have been receiving e-mails that tell me I am going to receive badd luck or good luck depending on whether I obey the forwarding of the e-mail. I am composing an e-mail to send and I want to be ale to convey to these people that they are cursing the ones they send this to in a way they are not aware.

I don't believe in luck good or bad. I do believe in curses.
James 3:10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing.
My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Do you see the blessing and the curse in the e-mails that tell you if you send it to 10 people etc. within x amount of time you will receive good luck. And if you don't you will die or have something horrible happen. It instills fear in people. I pray God will give them discernment when I send them the e-mail. I don't want to ignore this because I feel I am supposed to enlighten them.

I pray that someone can help me with this. I need counsel about what to say. Please pray with me that I will be able to do the will of the Father in this. I see it is speeding up as the Halloween season is approaching.

God bless and thank you.

Prayerwarrior-

All you need do is send Scriptures back to them showing how God is againsy witchcraft, sorcerry, the scriptures where God is against those practices of them and how they are participating in things that the devil and his followers want us to do, in order to discredit God.

But, let them know the Scriptures where God created Lucifer- satan, so satan is not worth following. That what he teaches ruins and destroys lives, not helps them in reality.

I pray this helps. It stopped all those types of mail and email from being sent to me.

God Bless!!

We get the word 'LUCK' from the name of the pagan god 'Loki'.

To have 'Good Loki' meant that the god was blessing you or at least leaving you alone.

To have 'Bad Loki' means that this Norse god of tricks and mischief was taking the time to mess with your life.

As Christians having good or bad luck has no meaning since we have no need of this pagan diety.

Those "Send it or else" emails should either be deleted or sent along heavily edited to remove the curse at the end.

Personally... I delete everything that tries to curse me in that way and send a reply to the sender asking them not to send any more curses to me or they will be blocked from my email account...

And yes, I have done that to my own father, siblings and other relatives.

They often do not respond well, try to use tack when you ask them to stop, remember that you are not dealing with them but the familiar spirits that want to curse you freely and you are stopping the curses.

Have no guilt over deleting something, if you think about it most of the stuff out there is just tricked up junk mail anyway... including those "candles" and "prayers" that tell you not to stop them.

Just Do It and let go of the guilt, God is NOT going to curse you!

I get tired of receiving that type of email too though I dont seem to get many of them anymore which I am thankful for and now that I think about it, I don't recall ever receiving any that threatened "bad luck" if it was not passed on, only ones claiming "good luck" if the email was passed on to so many others within so many minutes.

I found that interesting where our English word "Luck" comes from. Thanks for sharing that. so many times in a day we hear the word luck being spoken and its so common that we dont even think about it. I have several family members who complain quite frequently about the run of "bad luck" they are having. My elderly father complains that he has "no luck" at the casino anymore and my mother in law complains about having no luck at bingo or the casino. Most of my inlaws gamble regularly so I hear the word luck used often. I pray that one day soon their eyes will be opened to the truth. These same folks see no harm in Halloween or Harry Potter or astrology either. Lord please give them a mighty revelation of the Truth concerning these things which satan has been using to blind and deceive them. This I ask in Jesus' name, amen.

Thank you so much for this information. I have revised many but I want to send information to those who are doing this out of ignorance. Many people would not do this if they had some revelation of the tricks Satan has devised.

I am so blessed to have the Holy Spirit, God's Word and brothers and sisters in Christ to help me see in the spirit.


Be blessed

Your Sis in Christ

Good answer JeriRose. The problem is, even back in Old Test days, people following false beliefs, giving curses or blessings not of God, were actually seeking demons, unknowingly, to do this on the person.

Thats why in a couple accounts I can recall, God had His children confront groups of such people. In one, recall they could not get a responce from thier pagan deities to answer thier pleas. If recall correctly, God then destroyed thier altar or whatever it was built to show God the Father is and was even then, the creator and in contol, of all things.

God Bless!!

I stopped saying "good luck" or anything with the word luck in it a few years ago. I realised that as a Christian I have to business saying that. Luck means that things happen by chance or (for some more New Age-y people) that it's controlled by the universe as to where your chips will land. Or for some luck can be "controlled" by doing good things like putting "good vibes" out into the universe and good things come back and with it that good luck etc. . If God is the source "...from whom all blessings flow" and that "Every good and perfect gift is from above coming down from the father of heavenly lights..." then we've got our answer. He is the source of every good thing and He has nothing to do with luck. I say "blessed you" instead of "lucky you" for example in order to give God the honor He is due. My 2 cents... :>

When I get those "forward this to 10 people or have bad luck" emails, most of the time I delete them, unafraid. Some of them are actually very good inspirational emails which have been blemished by the addition of "forward this to X-amount of people within 5 minutes". If the email has a positive message which I feel would be appreciated by those on my email list, I simply delete the impending bad luck message and forward it on.
My friend Lee once told me while we were out "junking" (a nicer term for garbage picking) and I was not yet a Christian.
She had found a bunch of clothes which her sons could wear. the clothes had been washed, dried and folded and put into a plastic hamper. She was so overwhelmed and grateful for all of the goodies she had found and she kept saying "God is so good, all the time" and "I am so blessed". Not wanting to be left out, I said,"I'm blessed, too!"
Lee looks at me and said,"No! You are lucky because you consider yourself lucky! But one day your luck will run out. My blessings will never run out because God is so good, all the time!"

Man! What do you say to that?!

Jesus said the entire Kingdom of God works on the seedtime and harvest principle. There is no such thing as luck, except for in the carnal mind which is enmity against God and cannot be subject to the Word of God.

Luck can be traced back to it's source...lucifer!
