Topic: The Escape Routes From Curses [Seeds of Destiny 6 September 2019 Devotional]
The blessing of God was on ground before the curses of life came; the blessing preceded the curse; light existed before darkness.
SCRIPTURE: Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Galatians 3:13-14
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Mentality determines reality.
Previously, we saw the various origins of the curse which were personal iniquity or wickedness, parental iniquity or wickedness, occult or witchcraft involvement, enchantment and divination.
It has been confirmed that truth guarantees freedom. So, today we are going to explore scriptural truths that act as the bases for deliverance from curses.
Now, what are the bases for deliverance?
1 Creation
By virtue of creation, deliverance from curses is mandatory. Genesis 1:28 says, And God blessed them….So, the blessing of God was on ground before the curses of life came; the blessing preceded the curse; light existed before darkness. This implies that the transaction of your parents and ancestors that tried to implicate you with curses only came after you had been blessed by God at creation.
2 The Covenant
By virtue of the covenant, deliverance from curses is mandatory.
Before God made a covenant with Abraham, there was a trinity of calamity in his family – dying before time, starting without finishing and living without relevance (Genesis 11:25-32), but after the covenant, that chain of calamity was broken (Genesis 12:1-5).
Galatians 3:13-14 says, Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangs on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on us through Jesus Christ…
And what is the blessing of Abraham? It is living above generational curses, surviving where your father could not survive, and achieving what your father could not achieve.
Beloved, mentality determines reality. You need a change of mind-set to have a change of life; you need to believe that by connecting with the blessing of Abraham through Christ, you cannot be under any ancestral curse.
I take authority over every curse, spirit of limitations and setbacks. In the Name that is above every name, anything that stopped your father cannot stop you.
Remember this: mentality determines reality.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
- Live with the mind-set that you cannot be under any curse because you are in Christ Jesus.
- Study the life of Abraham and follow his principles.
- Reject every pronouncement over your life that is contrary to the scripture irrespective of who made it.
PRAYER: Father, thank You for setting me free from every curse by the Blood of Jesus Christ. I am unstoppable! What stopped my father cannot stop me, in Jesus’ Name.
