Bible verses about good luck!
Do things happen by chance or is everything under the sovereignty of God? Let’s explore the concept of luck and, with examples from the Bible and some Bible verses about good luck.
Ecclesiastes 9:11-12 suggests that events may seem to be a matter of luck or chance from an earthly perspective, but they are ultimately under God’s control.
2 Chronicles 18:33 and the book of Ruth ( Ruth 2:3 ) illustrate that what may appear to be chance occurrences are actually a part of God’s plan.
Proverbs 16:33 suggest that even the random results of casting lots or tossing a coin are ultimately under God’s control.
Everything that happens is under God’s sovereignty, whether through His active or passive will, and Christians can trust that God works all things together for good for those who love Him.
So, in short, there is no such thing as luck or chance as everything is under God’s sovereignty.
