      “Jeopardy!” grew on all of us. I’ve seen all other game shows back in the days, BEFORE “Jeopardy!” came into syndication. A perfect example would be “Tic-Tac-Dough”, billed as everyone’s game of strategy, knowledge and fun. Wink Martindale was the host of that show. Another example would be “The Joker’s Wild”, billed as the game wheere knowledge is king and Lady Luck is queen. Jack Barry hosted that one, and later, Bill Cullen, another gentleman who hosted so many other game shows, including “The Price Is Right” before Bob Barker. The ironic thing was that I saw an episode of “Jeopardy!”from last season when Wink was in the audience applauding.

      IF YOU START READING MAKE SURE YOU FINISH THIS IS A SIGN FROM GOD FOR YOU!!: GUYS IM BEING DEAD SERIOUS JESUS PUT IT ON MY HEART TO WRITE THIS AND SAID IT WOULD SPEAK TO SOMEONE REALLY!! Please don’t think I’m playing cuz I would never lie on His name like that 💯
      God says He sees you & notices you for your true beauty. He said that there are times where you’ve struggled to find peace & happiness but those times you looked haven’t been ignored by Him. He said that He sees and notices all the hurt you’ve been through & all the times you stayed up overthinking. He says He has been there with you everyday even if it didn’t feel like you feel Him. He said that He loves you for who you are & understands you more than you sometimes understand yourself. He wants you to know nothing you do can make Him love you any less. He says that He’s seen your hurt and how people have said words that hurt you more than they know. He says He has compassion for what you went through and He wants you to know you’re never too far from Him. He said He will lift your spirit up & refresh you & will show you where you need to go in life. He said that He sees your family & cares for them so much & that they will be protected by Him wherever they go. He says He has seen your tears and the tears that you held in & you didn’t see it but He was there with you crying next to you. He feels hurt every time you felt hurt. He says He sees you as His precious beloved, He calls you His beloved. He sees you for who you really are, and it’s hard for others to understand but He understands you completely. He wants to give you His love into your heart & fill you with peace like you’ve never felt before. He wants to be your friend, He wants a relationship with you. He’s asking you to invite Him into your life. He’s at the door right now and wants to give you his blessings and unconditional love and peace. He’s asking if your willing to invite Him into your life?
      IF YOU WANT TO ACCEPT HIM INTO YOUR LIFE JUST SAY THIS PRAYER OUT LOUD, NOT JUST IN YOUR HEAD, JUST SAY IT IT TAKES 1 MIN BUT MAKES YOUR SOUL 100% GO TO HEAVEN AND GIVES GOD ACCESS TO WORK IN YOUR LIFE, DONT HISITATE!!! MEAN WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, & BELIEVE HE HEARD YOU BECAUSE HE DID!! ITS THAT EASY IM BEING SO SERIOUS SAY THESE WORDS AND MEAN IT & YOULL GO TO HEAVEN!!!
      "Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. I now renounce any connection, attachments, and leverage I have given willingly or unwillingly to the devil. I acknowledge him as an enemy and accused against me and also against you and I will not support anything he plans on doing in my life. I declare his assignments in my life broken and destroyed in Jesus name. I declare that I trust you are much much more stronger than him and I declare that I as a new believer have been given power and authority over and against him in Jesus name. You are my defense and my stronghold, my heart will trust in you. In Jesus name, I declare that my thoughts, actions, and behaviors are free from the devils doing and I know and have faith you are fighting for me. Anytime I feel weird or off or feel something trying to attack my spirit, I will realize that is not you but from the devil and I will say out loud ‘In Jesus name, I am free and on fire for God, anything near or around me will feel the scorching fire of the Holy God and the fire will not leave them in Jesus name’! (Literally say you are pouring fire on the demons around you whenever you feel off or just mad at the demons for being evil lol but you HAVE to say in Jesus name you are doing this) Lord thank you for hearing me and I trust and believe your ears are always listening to my prayer and even if I don’t see it with my eyes, my life is not changed in Jesus name. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."
      HES FOREVER IN YOUR LIFE AFTER YOU SAID THAT PRAYER NOW EVEN IF YOU DONT FEEL HIM JUST KNOW HE IS WATCHING OVER YOU! NOW ITS YOUR TURN TO GROW YOUR FRIENDSHIP W HIM! YOURE ALREADY ON YT SEARCH UP HOW TO BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!! THATS HOW YOU START HEARING HIM AND SEEING HIM AS A FRIEND!! DONT BE MAD AT GOD FOR NOT TALKING TO YOU IF YOU NEVER GET TO KNOW HIM AND TALK TO HIM. THATS HOW YOU BUILD A FRIENDSHIP!!!!11111hhhggghhjtgg

      It will go on but it'll be weird. I mean it's like the price is right without Bob Barker. They ended up having to change the show's style almost entirely once Drew Carey came in as the host. For the first year or two it had all the old sound effects and set decorations, and then they just had to change it. I think that's what's going to happen with Jeopardy. Whoever comes in is going to face a huge task. Because for 36 years it's been nothing but Trebek.
      I think that they're going to get a new host, and they will solder on for maybe 2 years, or 3 years, but I don't see it surviving past that. It will probably get shunted to daytime as a watered-down version kind of like who wants to be a millionaire after Regis left.
