1 | Is casting lots excepted today | Num 27:21 | organicsplus | 164044 | ||
In the Bible and also in my life I have been asking for confirmation on certain and important matters, and Im confused on what to do. I noticed in Old and New Test. They would ask of God a awnser by casting lots. My question is, is this a exceptable way of getting an awnser from God? And if it is what is the Biblical definition of how to cast your lots? | ||||||

Hi organicsplus, I can offer 4 suggestions: 1. You may want to type in "Casting lots" in the Search function,at the upper right on this Forum. There has been much written about it that may help your understanding. 2. There are numerous references to "casting lots" in scripture. However, casting lots was primarily OT. The NT references in each of the Gospels are a fulfillment of OT prophecy!. Most prominently, we have the casting of lots in the choosing of Matthias to replace Judas in Acts 1:26. 3. My caution would be that you don't delve into a mystical approach to scripture and seeking God by resorting to this type of practice. 4. Try this: Pray and meditate on Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight. It has all the elements of prayer. Why don't you pray this scripture back to God and formulate your request around these truths? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
