All faith comes from God. God measures out to every creature
their portion of faith. Faith is a Spirit. The Spirit of Faith.
The Spirit of Faith is God and one of the seven Spirits of God.
Great Kings and Lords in the Kingdom of God rule by
The Laws of the Spirit of Faith.

They are the foundation
of all that which was, of all that which is and all that to which
is yet to come into the present.

Without them there would be nothing.

They are God.

There is a farmer and a rancher and they both live on their land joining one another
the farmer prays to God and ask God to keep it from raining
so as he can gather his harvest from the fields. If it rains the crops will be ruined.

The rancher on the other hand prays to God
and ask God to make it rain and make it rain much
for if it does not rain causing the grass to refurbish his pastures
he will not be able to feed his cattle. And they will die.

Which one prevailed with God?

Everything is determined by faith.
Therefore everything is predetermined
in the process of time.

Hence you have the Spirit of Prophecy.
To which is one of the seven Spirits of God.

If you have faith in a lie then you will reap the rewards of the lie.
If you have faith in the truth then you will reap the rewards of the truth.

Luck is simply chance (probability), but chance itself is a weighted die when God is sovereign. Ever read Ecclesiastes? Solomon describes (in his own way) how victory doesn't necessarily go to the strong or the swift.

Ecclesiastes 9:11 King James Version (KJV)

11 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

Time and chance, happening to them all. Yet, here is something to ponder. When the dice is rolled, who determines its landing?


Proverbs 16:33King James Version (KJV)

33 The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord.

Luck then is more so the grace of God, wouldn't you say? Oh yes, God is sovereign. Ever in the affairs of man, no matter our ignorance. One might ask God, "What blessings have I missed that were of you? To where do I owe you gratitude?" The answer might surprise you. :)

Right believing is very important, and especially in whom or what you believe. Who do you place your faith in? God? Where do you place your faith? On the promises of God? Do you notice the trend? God is at the heart of faith, we may have faith because He Himself is faithful. His character, His identity, so enthralls us that we trust Him. Who He is, is the catalyst for faith.

Cannot God cause the clouds to part in one area and yet rain in another? ;) Both win.

So your answer is that God gave them both what they asked of Him?

Is this correct?

In a world of perfect faith, whereby God has so willed that they both get what they desire (their petition has been heard), why not? Is God limited in this respect? If it is His will, and they believe, are not all things possible with God?

There is no such thing as luck or chance. Everything has a time to every purpose under heaven.

Say....Isn't that written in the book of Ecclesiastes?

Not all things are possible to God. It is not possible for God to lie.

The Spirit of Wisdom would not reply in such a way, and really, you shouldn't be putting words in the Holy Spirit's mouth. The statement you made is, no offense intended, illogical. God's omnipotence is not determined by doing the intrinsically impossible and illogical, God is limited by His nature and to suggest His lack of ability to lie is a fault or weakness is rather impudent.

God has certain characteristics, including omnipotence, but what you are suggesting is that God is limited, for example, because He cannot make a square circle, but by definition such is impossible intrinsically by definition. Hence, all things are possible with God, that are logically so. God does not do the illogical, though he does use the foolish things of the world to confound the wise.

God does have limitations. God cannot sin. That is a limitation.
God cannot sin due to the limitations placed upon Him by His Holiness.
