Satan’s Mouthpiece (the Corporate Media) has been LOADED with articles touting the huge POWERBALL jackpot and promoting the idea that ANYONE–even the reader (who never wins ANYTHING that big)–CAN WIN!
The talk is NOT of MILLIONS OF DOLLARS: the talk is of BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!
The stories published by Satan’s Mouthpiece cover nearly EVERY aspect of the giant prize–including many that would prove little more than small annoyances IF the reader won.
- Today’s Powerball jackpot is expected to hit a record $1.9 billion
- The $1.9 billion Powerball jackpot — the largest ever — is up for grabs. Here’s the tax bill if there’s a winner
- What are the luckiest Powerball numbers of 2022?
- World Record Powerball Jackpot Grows To $1.9 Billion
As was previously stated, the media drones on and on and on about JUST IMAGE IF YOU WIN!
- Powerball’s $1.9 billion jackpot is the biggest ever—but Mark Cuban and Kevin O’Leary disagree on what to do if you win
- Powerball madness: Residents of Utah flood Arizona stores for their chance to win $1.9 billion
- Financial advice if you win the Powerball jackpot
- What should you do if you win record Powerball drawing?
NOW, here’s a bit of COLD WATER to wake the reader from his waking dreams of easy money.
- It has been said that one’s chances of getting struck by lightning–TWICE IN THE SAME DAY–is still better than the chances of winning Powerball.
- ALL lottery games are schemes of man–which take from the (ignorant) MANY and give to the (elite) FEW. Something for the reader to keep in mind the next time he mistakenly believes that JUST ANYONE CAN WIN!
- WHY does the reader believe that Powerball (and ALL lotteries) jackpots are PROMOTED so heavily by the government’s media?
- WHY does the reader remember the stories of the Powerball winners whose money brought them nothing but misery? WHY does the reader believe the media has published and republished those stories?
So, ‘lotto fever’ will strike UNTIL THERE IS A WINNER, or UNTIL THE JACKPOT grows to a HUGE amount of money.
The media will be FULL of ‘What would you do with all of that (easy) money’ stories.
TRUE STORY: There was a regular player of the state lottery who would NOT play the lottery WHEN the jackpot hit a certain size.
He claimed he was waiting until it got bigger; until ‘it was worth playing for.’
Even though it was pointed out that ‘$10 million is a LOT more than you have now,’ he remained unconvinced.
His playing habits have remained unchanged UNTIL THIS PRESENT DAY.
Another TRUE STORY: One of the little ‘games’ non-lottery-obsessed folks play from time to time is guessing HOW LONG the government/media will stoke the fires of LOTTO FEVER by allowing the jackpot to accumulate HUGE amounts of money.
One week?
Two weeks?
A month?
Two months?
How long will the suspense go on?
God’s Word has PLENTY to say about man chasing after ‘easy money.’
The following is just ONE of those things.
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”
–1JOHN 2:15
Will the reader catch ‘lotto fever’?
Has the reader EVER suffered from this strange condition in the past?
It is not YET too late–although time is surely running out: there is still a LITTLE time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.
DOES the reader believe he is saved?

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
—1 Corinthians 15:1-8
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
