Bible Question: I need scripture relating to luck being a blessing. I'm putting together a youth devotion replacig the word luck with blessing |
Bible Answer: Dear Spiritfilled - I'm not sure of your plan or purpose. You will find neither the word "luck" in the Bible nor the concept of chance or caprice being taught in the Bible. Are you seeking to find more scripturally-oriented phrases to replace such common expressions as "good luck" and "lucky me"? Since Scripture recognizes no such reality as luck, I don't see how you can engineer a devotional such as you describe. I'd opt to forget about the idea of luck altogether and build instead on the idea of God's blessings to His people. The Beatitudes of Matthew 5 come to mind. They will require some digging on your part in order to be able to explain them to the youth, but they are excellent material for devotional thought and reflection. May God guide you in your preparation. --Hank |
