Rocks, stones and crystals are elements of the Earth. Standing with bare feet on freshly tilled soil and experiencing the tingling energy that causes seeds to sprout and plants to grow is called “grounding” or “earthing”. Lithium, that is used for long lasting batteries is mined from the earth. The efficacy of carrying a stone in one’s pocket, wearing them around the neck or adding copper threads to fabrics or wearing copper jewelry is still anecdotal.
On the other hand, numerology is more often ascribed to a spirit of divination. Acts 16:16 is often used to appropriately denigrate the satanic desire to counterfeit legitimate prophecy. As with all extra biblical study, prayerful and purposeful introspection should lead and guide in the study of dates, times, patterns and ordinal numbers, lest the baby of revelation be thrown out with the bath water.
As numbers relate to lotteries, gambling can become addictive and demoralizing. It is perniciously connected to all the other vices that corrode communities. The degrading spiral of gambling is built upon the money of those for whom it is only amusing entertainment. Two dollars “invested” in the hope of winning hundreds of millions seems innocuous. For you, it may be. For many others, it is not.
