WorldLink’s Biblical Encouragement – Gambling Addiction application provides encouraging Bible verses for the myriad of emotions and symptoms associated with gambling addiction. The app facilitates a personal and meaningful conversation between you and God.

Start by telling God how you are feeling today about your gambling addiction. Addicted? Anxious? Doubtful? Frustrated? Losing your will? Met your goal? Missed your goal? Ready to give up? Struggling with backsliding? Tempted? Worried about lifestyle changes? Not seeing results? And more. Then let God encourage you through His word, the Holy Bible (New International Version).

Easy to use – simply select one of more than 35 popular emotions and symptoms dealing with gambling.

Personal - displays a series of relevant Bible verses specific to how you are feeling currently about your addiction.

Unique - includes a brief encouraging commentary on each verse.

The verses and comments will provide comfort and encouragement to you in a very personal and meaningful way.

For example, Mark is about to take a business trip to Las Vegas. As a recovering gambler, he is anxious and scared about the looming temptation. He launches the Biblical Encouragement – Gambling Addiction application. He selects the Anxious/Fearful category. The app displays:

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” – Psalm 23:4
COMMENT: God is with you. His presence and guidance provides you the strength for giving up gambling.

Now Mark is remembering that he has previously turned his battle with gambling over to God. For one more bit of confirmation, he presses the MORE button. The app displays:

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” – Joshua 1:9
COMMENT: Take courage in that God leads the way. He leads the way wherever you go. So exchange your fears about giving up gambling for confidence in Him.

Mark feels much better now and gains confidence about his upcoming business trip. He marks the verse as a “favorite”, and then emails the verse as an encouraging note to a friend who is also a recovering gambling addict.
