Just open up one of these books and the first text you read is your prophecy. Sounds like Tarot cards (playing cards bearing allegorical figures used in fortune-telling) but this form of divination is ancient. For those seeking God’s will, it was called “drawing lots” or “casting". (Think of tossing the dice.) During difficult times the Israelites would “draw lots” to find God’s will. They would ask a question and the way it landed or fell would determine the answer. The early Christians also used this method, as did the Bohemians to decide upon Bishops.
