I think the issue here is that the Amarr believe their luck isn't luck at all, simply divine providence.

I for one believe everyone in New Eden is lucky that the Gallente and Amarr have not gone to war with one another yet.

Their confidence is as much rooted in fact as well as scripture.

The Imperial Navy has never deployed anywhere near its full capacity (not even 25%) to deal with anything, including the Jove, Minmatar Rebellion, the Elder Fleet, etc. If even a quarter of its true potential was directed at an entity, the results would be unfathomable.
The Empire has the largest population of all of the four empires with the largest standing army, which like the navy has never been even remotely dedicated towards a specific target.
While historically viewed as "behind the curve" in terms of technology, the Amarr have consistently been the ones who set the bar in terms of military technology, from constructing the first Proto Titan to creating our own predecessors, the original Templars.
Since Empress Jamyl ascended to the throne, the Empire has seen a monumental increase in technological advances and education.
While the other empires were dealing with much internal strife over the past couple years (i.e. Heth vs. Megacorps, Minmatar/Federation tensions, etc.) the Amarr were prospering.

The Empire did not get as large as it is today by being weak and primitive. Behind the scriptures lies a culture whose innovation could only be rivaled by the Caldari, and whose strategic and intellectual prowess has stood through the test of time. They are strong and united probably more than any other empire, and therefore should, if not feared, be watched a respected for the unprecedented strength they wield.

(( #1 where in the hell did you find that stat, Its beautiful)) ((It is explicitly stated in the novel, Templar One (which I am too lazy to get up and look up the exact page right now LOL), but the specific citing of this in regards to the Jove conflict can be found here, in the fourth paragraph under "Overview".))

If not for the Joves, they might have become the most powerful empire in the history of civilization. As it was, the Amarr were not only fending off three navies right now, but winning."))
