Feeling like you’re having a streak of bad luck often comes from facing challenges in life, which God uses to strengthen your faith and resilience.
As a believer, you can take comfort in knowing that Satan cannot prevail over you, so you need not fear any misfortune.
You are protected from curses, so rest easy.
Keep in mind that we live in a world where unfortunate events occur, but trust that our loving God is always in control and can turn even the toughest situations into something good.
It’s Not About Luck: You Were Born To Win
You are born to win, You are of God, and as such, your faith is anchored in the embrace of a mighty and compassionate God, who has pledged to accompany you along every twist and turn of this earthly journey.
Yet, at times, we may find ourselves drawn to superstitions and rituals, seeking a shield against misfortune.
However, I urge you to turn your gaze instead to prayer and the word of God, where you will discover reassurance in God’s protective embrace and trust in His power to safeguard you from adversity.
For example, in Psalm 91:10, a beacon of reassurance shines forth, dispelling our fears and offering a haven of peace.
This verse proclaims, with unwavering conviction,
“No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling.”
These words enfold us in the comforting embrace of God’s protection, affirming that as long as we ground our faith in Him, no harm can penetrate our spiritual fortress.
In the shelter of this divine promise, we find solace and strength.
Rather than succumbing to the allure of superstitions and rituals, we can turn wholeheartedly to God, surrendering our fears and doubts to His capable hands.
His unwavering presence, like a celestial shield, wards off misfortune, keeping us safe and secure in His everlasting love.
As you navigate the complexities of your life, draw upon the timeless wisdom of Psalm 91:10, finding hope in God’s promise of divine protection.
Cast aside superstitious practices, replacing them with an unwavering trust in the power and love of our Creator.
For in Him, we discover the ultimate source of peace, protection, and everlasting hope.

What the Bible says about Bad Luck
The Bible does not teach the concept of luck, but rather the sovereignty of God over all things.
Luck implies randomness or chance, while God is in control of every situation and circumstance.
The Bible also teaches that God can use apparent bad luck or adversity for His good purposes, such as testing, refining, or disciplining His people.
Therefore, as Christians, we should not fear or rely on luck, but trust in God’s providence and plan.
Some Bible verses that specifically relate to this topic are:
Proverbs 16:33
The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the LORD
Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
James 1:2-4
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
Hebrews 12:5-11
And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says, “My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.” Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

Let me be real, there are moments when life will hit us so hard that we feel ensnared by an unrelenting torrent of misfortune, as if an unseen hand conspires against our every step.
The clouds of doubt and despair gather, obscuring the radiant sun of hope.
Yet, there is hope in God, and amidst the darkness, we can find hope in the radiant light of scripture, and we will discover the power to break free from the chains of ill fortune.

By meditating on this verse, and other such verses, you position yourself to break and conquer any curse or misfortune that threatens to engulf your life.
Embrace the transformative power of scripture, let its verses penetrate the depths of your soul, and watch as the chains of bad luck shatter into fragments of light.
For in the words of the Most High, we find the strength to overcome any obstacle, to rise above the trials that beset us, and to forge a path of prosperity and abundance.
