Winning the Powerball Jackpot

Winning the Powerball Jackpot

- January 14, 2016

Lottery

Last night, the biggest lottery jackpot in recorded history was up for grabs. And it was miracously won not once, not twice, but three times by three different individuals in three different states.

Jackpot

And the jackpot won was for 1.6 billion US dollars.

To put in perspective how big that amount is, it is actually bigger or roughly equivalent to the gross domestic product of 30 countries. Meaning the winner (if it was won by one person) would have been richer than 30 nations.

Easy to Win?

And all you had to do to obtain that ridiculous amount was to correctly choose just 5 numbers plus pick 1 red power ball number.

Easy right?

Not quite, the odds were less than 1 chance in over 292 million -- meaning it would have been easier to be voted in as the next US President.

Th Real Jackpot

What most people are forgetting is that the real jackpot is far more easier to receive than that. And all one needs to do to obtain it is to choose the real red power ball. And His name is Jesus of Nazareth. And no it's not jolly old Santa.

There will for sure be other bigger power ball lottery jackpots in the future, but the odds of winning any of those would still be the same and would still be lower than you being struck by a meteor. But yes, there is a chance.

While the odds of you obtaining the real jackpot is really all in your hands. Your call.

The Shepherd and His Flock

“I tell you the truth, the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The man who enters by the gate is the shepherd of his sheep. The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech, but they did not understand what he was telling them.

Therefore Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

John 10 (NIV 84)

If you have issues with Hillsong or Bethel or Elevation or any of the so-called heretical churches or preachers, we are not condoning any false teachings. There is always something we can find wrong in all churches, including the one we call ours. But there is one faith, there is one baptism, there is One God, there is One Spirit and One Savior, Jesus Christ. If we agree on all these then let's all work together for good. The Lord is coming back. Let us stop wasting time with nitpicking, criticizing other believers because they wear strange clothes or sing weird songs, or read a version of the bible we don't, or speak in tongues or do or believe something which we don't, instead let us do what God has really called us to do. God has called each one of us to do something. Let's do that.
