"Is it appropriate to discern God's will by casting lots?"

✔ Answer：
No, it is not appropriate to discern God's will by casting lots because the Bible clearly states that we are not to practice fortune-telling or sorcery (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). Instead, we are to be blameless before the Lord and rely on His Word and guidance through prayer and the Holy Spirit.

✔ Reference text：
Deuteronomy 18:10 For example, never sacrifice your son or daughter as a burnt offering. And do not let your people practice fortune-telling or sorcery, or allow them to interpret omens, or engage in witchcraft,
Deuteronomy 18:11 or cast spells, or function as mediums or psychics, or call forth the spirits of the dead.
Deuteronomy 18:12 Anyone who does these things is an object of horror and disgust to the LORD. It is because the other nations have done these things that the LORD your God will drive them out ahead of you.
Deuteronomy 18:13 You must be blameless before the LORD your God.
Deuteronomy 18:14 The people you are about to displace consult with sorcerers and fortune-tellers, but the LORD your God forbids you to do such things.
