God does not give us luck, but blessings.@LC627said:
"The moral of Noah's Ark is that God wants you to have a yacht!" ...
Ummmmmm, it would seem that BOTH of you will "laugh" your way to you graves:
Lke 22:35 And he said to them, “When I sent you out with no purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.” 36 He said to them, “But now, let him who has a purse take it, and likewise a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his mantle and buy one.
Personally, I have a "lifeboat" in a remote location which provides shelter, food, water, and fuel to last some 6 months. And I've been working on providing for my family for some 7 years to make things ready. I'm not through, and only have about another year until I expect we'll need to "evacuate".
So you might consider preparing your provisions as Jesus instructs. But you only have about a year.
Good Luck,

And that is quite optimistic of you would you agree? Emmanuel tells us that no one but the Father knows what you claim shall occur in about a year.
Further, if you will indulge me, the prosperity doctrine that is taught today by what appear to be materialist humanists carried by a large following of $ustainers, is in no wise reminiscent of Emmanuel's teaching.
Emmanuel was God walking among us in his time. He did not have to walk everywhere he and his Disciples ventured, but he did. He said, the son of man has no place to lay his head, while after he arrived on earth he and his family were given riches that were to insure they would want for nothing. He lived simply, as did his followers. He preached to the poor, the disenfranchised, and he warned the rich and materialistic against their ways.
Whatever you ask for in his name shall be granted unto you, as Jesus said, is a promise that in my experience has been lashed to death by those who think a mansion, great expensive rides, furs, bling, and more and more cash, are proof they are beloved by God. For the treasures they lay up here on earth do not translate to Heaven.Flesh and blood is not able to inherit the kingdom of God, nor does decay inherit immortality.
Jesus did not teach today's prosperity gospel. Unless the Lord leads them to a change of heart, today's prosperity humanist materialists with a following of $ustainers shall find that out. Eternity is a long time to be wrong.
"The Lord commonly gives riches to foolish people, to whom he gives nothing else."
Martin Luther
