Beloved of All
Lord I'm tired I eat debts to bet and loose I've nothing but I have lost to so many bets My heart is telling me Lord pliz take me
 
We hear the deep weariness and pain in your words and we are lifting you up before the Lord together. You have said you are tired, buried in millions of debt because of online betting and gambling, that you keep borrowing to bet and losing, and that your heart is telling you to ask the Lord to take you. We want you to know that you are not alone and that God sees you, hears you, and loves you even in this dark valley. Your life is precious to Him.

We want to speak the truth to you in love about what has happened. Gambling is a snare that feeds covetousness and the love of money, and it violates God's call to be faithful stewards of what He has entrusted to us. The scripture says, For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows 1 Timothy 6:10. And again, Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you Hebrews 13:5. The desire to get rich quickly through betting leads to ruin, for The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty Proverbs 21:5. We urge you in Christ to repent and turn completely away from this practice, to cut off every access to betting sites and apps, to bring it into the light with a trusted pastor or mature believer, and to seek accountability so that you may walk in freedom. All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of anything 1 Corinthians 6:12.

We also hear your cry of wanting the Lord to take you, and we must gently and firmly tell you that this is not God's will for you. Your life has great value and purpose to God even now while you feel empty and hopeless. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit Psalm 34:18. When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I Psalm 61:2. Jesus invites you, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest Matthew 11:28. Suicide is not the answer and it would not bring rest, but God wants to give you rest, forgiveness, and a new beginning right now. If these thoughts grow stronger, please reach out immediately to a trusted pastor, a family member, a mature Christian friend, or a local crisis helpline and let someone stay with you and pray with you. You do not have to carry this alone, and God wants to keep you and heal you.

We also notice you cried out to the Lord, and we want to remind you that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father and find salvation and hope. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. If you have not yet fully surrendered your life to Him, we encourage you to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, for with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation Romans 10:9. He alone can break the chain of addiction and forgive every debt of sin.

God is faithful and He will make a way out of temptation as you turn to Him. No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it 1 Corinthians 10:13. He can deliver you from this bondage and He can also help you face the financial debts with honesty and diligence. The wicked borrow, and do not pay back Psalm 37:21, so we encourage you to commit to repaying what you owe as you are able, to seek wise and godly financial counsel, to work diligently with your hands, and to trust God to provide for your needs day by day, for my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19.

We are praying together for you now.

Father in heaven, we lift up this dear soul to You in the name of Jesus Christ. You see the burden of debt, the shame, the exhaustion, and the thoughts of wanting to be taken away. Lord have mercy and forgive the sin of gambling and the love of money, wash it away by the blood of Jesus, and break its power completely. We ask You to deliver our friend from every craving to bet, to remove every trigger and temptation, and to fill the heart with peace that passes all understanding. Comfort the broken heart, guard the mind, and let Your nearness be felt, for You are close to the brokenhearted. Give strength to confess to godly counsel, to close every door to gambling, to seek help and accountability, and to walk in honesty and diligence. Provide wisdom for the debts, open doors for honest work, and help to make a faithful plan to repay. Restore hope and show that You have plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give a future and a hope Jeremiah 29:11. Hold this life in Your hands, let no harm come, and let today be the beginning of new life and freedom in Christ. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus, our only hope and Savior, amen.

We encourage you to stay connected to a Bible believing church, to open God's word daily, to pray honestly, and to let others walk with you in this battle. God can restore what has been lost and make you a good steward again. Do not give up, for we believe God is not finished with your story.

Thank you for being honest with us about where you are. We hear how tired you feel, carrying loans and losses from online betting, feeling trapped in a cycle of borrowing to bet and losing again. When you wrote that your heart is telling you to ask the Lord to take you, it tells us how heavy this has become, and we are so glad you reached out instead of carrying it by yourself.

Gambling can take over quickly and make it feel like there is no way out, especially when debt keeps growing and shame builds. Wanting relief does not mean you are alone or beyond help. Many people find they cannot break free on their own and need steady support from others walking with them.

We want to encourage you to reach out today to one trusted person in your life, a family member, pastor, or counselor, and let them know exactly what you shared here, including the thoughts about not wanting to live. Alongside prayer, it can help to seek professional support for gambling and for finances. A counselor experienced with gambling and a financial counselor working together, with family or community accountability where possible, can help you look at practical steps like blocking access to betting sites and making a plan for the debts one step at a time.

Father, we lift our friend to You right now. Please keep him safe, quiet the despair he feels, and surround him with people who will stay close and help. Give him strength for today, wisdom for each next decision, and hope that You are near and not finished with his story. Lead him to the right help and hold him in Your care. In Jesus' name, amen.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body
 
Your honest and heavy cry has been heard, and I thank you for speaking it plainly before the Lord. To be wearied with debts that have grown into millions, to have eaten debts to place another bet and to have lost again, to feel you have nothing left, this is a crushing burden. And to come to the place where your heart says, Lord please take me, is to stand upon the dreary confines of despair. You are not alone in that dark place, and you must not remain there alone.

Hear what the Lord says to such a soul. Despair is useless. It has not paid one debt, it has not recovered one loss, it has not kept you back from sin, it has only made you sit in darkness, chilled and benumbed, while death creeps near. More than that, despair is a high insult to God, for it says in effect that His mercy is conquered and His power is not enough. It brings out the adversary and crowns him in Christ's stead, as if Satan were victorious over the mercy of God. No man has a right to despair while there is an omnipotent God to deal with, while the precious blood of the Son of God has been given for sinners, while the silver bell still rings, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. While life lasts, while mercy's gate stands wide open, despair is not warranted, for God is the sinner's hope and He is not lost.

The highest sin and the deepest despair together cannot baffle the power of Jesus. If you were between the very jaws of hell, Christ could snatch you forth. She who for year after year was in bondage to melancholy and despair was set at liberty by the gracious providence of God in an almost miraculous way, and saints who are now among the brightest in heaven have yet in their day sat weeping at the gates of despair. There is not a text in Scripture which gives any man an excuse to despair. Your case, however hopeless it feels, is not hopeless with Him.

There is a blessed kind of despair which the Spirit of God works, a despair of saving yourself, of washing away your own sin, of making yourself acceptable by your own merit. That despair is needful, for it drives you to Christ alone, through whom alone is salvation. But to despair of His mercy, to conclude that you must perish, is to make your own word come true by your own making it so. Do not so.

This poor soul in despair continued to cry and the Lord heard him. You heard the voice of my supplication when I cried unto you. Do but cry, dear heart, out of your soul's despair, and the Lord's infinite goodness will constrain Him to come to you. He has taught you to cry and He will assuredly answer your prayers. Cry to Him now, not to bless the betting which has wasted what He entrusted to you, but to forgive it, to cleanse you through the blood of Jesus, and to make you a new steward of what remains.

For hope is well grounded. I have heard that there is corn in Egypt. There is mercy in Christ, there is pardon, there is power to break the chain that gambling has laid upon you. And therefore action is reasonable. Get you down there, that you may live and not die. Turn from the betting wholly. The Lord calls you to forsake it, to confess it as sin, to cut off every way of return to it, and to walk in honesty before Him and before men.

In the strength Christ gives, take these steps at once. Tell a faithful pastor or a mature believer today exactly where you stand, the debts, the losses, the thoughts that you want the Lord to take you. Do not carry this alone another night. Put every barrier between you and betting, give account of your money to another, seek godly counsel for the debts, and labour faithfully as God enables you to provide and to repay what you can. If the thought to be taken away presses hard upon you, go to a trusted person near you without delay and ask them to stay with you and to help you seek care.

Let me pray for you. O Lord, hear the voice of this supplication. Thou art the sinner's hope. Forgive this my fellow sinner through the blood of Jesus Christ shed for the guilty, and speak peace to this troubled heart. Lift him from despair, set his feet upon the Rock, break the snare of gambling, and teach him to live by faith upon Thy mercy and to walk in Thy ways. Keep him this day, give him bread and give him grace, and let him live to praise Thee. Amen.

Stay in the light with other believers. Keep crying to the Lord, keep looking to Christ, and keep walking in the plain path of obedience one day at a time. The Lord who heard you when you cried will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
