I only need seven in a row.
You know what Lord, I was just writing an article for my other blog and I got to thinking. Well, while everyone is at church, that I could have this little talk with you.
You see, on my way home I was thinking about numbers, I’m not the greatest mathematician in the world nonetheless I like numbers.
What I was thinking of was this, I’m kind of prone to the number seven, and I’ve always liked the number, seven. You see, I know that you like this number too and that you do things in sevens, the bible says so, and I got to thinking.
You like number seven and I like number seven, so here is my win, win situation. Now, please don’t strike me down with lightning, let me just finish what I have to say then you’ll see where I’m coming from, it goes like this.
First of all, I noticed that in our solar system you have about nine planets kind of lined up including earth, now, I know that they’re not exactly in a straight line, but, not bad. They’re out there you know, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and a few little planets that we don’t talk about too often.
You see Lord, some people don’t find these little unknown planets very important, but I do. I love the Galaxies and the vastness of the Universe.
Well, here’s the scoop, right now, the lottery for Lotto Max is 24 million, now, please don’t get upset until I finish. You don’t have to say yes, it’s just a proposition I’m making. I know that most people won’t ask you in this way, especially all the Christians who are at church right now and I’m sitting her kind of, writing my prayer instead.
Well Lord, I know it’s taking me a while to get to the point but here it is. Now please, just let me finish, that’s all I ask, well, not all that I ask, but here goes. Like I was saying or praying.You have all the planets all nicely lined up, I was thinking, if I bought a ticket next Friday for Lotto Max, and only if, is there any chance that you could make them all line up. You know, like the numbers on my ticket.
Now, here’s the deal, I know that you’re always talking about people giving you ten percent, okay, if by chance I get my miracle, that all my numbers line up, I will give you ten percent of my winnings. It will help me out and it will help the different churches out that I will send it to and help them with their ministry.
Think about it Lord, $2.4 million to church ministry, it could help them out quite a bit. In addition, aren’t you always saying that everything on the earth is yours anyway?
Therefore, maybe we could work together on this, I’ll make the investment, and you help the numbers fall into place. I know that you could do this Lord. I know, that if you can put all the planets in place, you can put all my numbers in place.
Now I know that you might think that I’m being just a little brazen here, well Lord you know what they say, there’s no harm in asking, all you can do is say no. What an opportunity Lord, it’s a win-win for both of us.
John 14:13
You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father.
After all, you do say in your word (The Bible) that if we ask anything in Jesus name it will be done, well Lord, I ask it in Jesus name that you will bless me with this prize money and in return I will help many, many people.
So Lord, what do you think?
Lord, I do hope this isn’t my last post. That if I’ve spoken out of turn that you will forgive me. In addition, if you really, really love me, sorry, just thought that I would throw that little bit in there.
Also Lord, please don’t let any Christians see this, you know how they are, they’ll start judging me and laying hands on me right away.
If you could maybe talk it over with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, maybe run it by the Angels too if you want.
Thank you Lord in advance for considering my request and earnest prayer, in Jesus name, Amen.
