It's a journey that started since the year 2014 when I was in college at Mahatma Gandhi University, India. It is on record that nearly four in ten Nigerians (36%) gamble regularly, with up to 60 million Nigerians between the ages of 18 and 40 involved in daily sports betting, and they spend an average of 3,000 Naira every day on betting platforms. The current size of the market is estimated to be $60 million. It is also on record that approximately 10 million people in the U.S. have a gambling problem, so you are not alone. It's important to understand your motive for gambling and avoid gambling temptations and triggers. The main reason why most people like to gamble is to make quick and easy money. Gambling by nature appeals to greed, and greed doesn't please God. Jesus condemned greed and mentioned it in lists of some very "ugly" sin (Mark 7:21-23).
The Bible warns us that greed is destructive to our Christian lives (Ephesians 5:3). Note that money itself isn't evil, but being overeager to get a lot of it is dangerous. The desires that want to get more of what this world has to offer are actually the kinds of desires we're following when we choose to gamble. Remember, worldliness and Godliness is in enmity. How would you respond to someone who argues they only do a little gambling (e.g.., Bet9ja or other sports betting) for fun, and they don't care if they win? Gambling in any form is highly addictive; for greed has the potential to master us and also to change our priorities from God to self. The whole point of Gambling is winning money; without that goal it has no purpose. It is dangerous to even get a little involved in an activity that can lead to greed, debt, stealing, lying, and even spiritual ruin.
