SUBJECT: BREAKING GENERATIONAL CURSE! PART 2.
Memory verse: "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” (James 4 vs 7.)
READ: Second Chronicles 7 vs 14; James 4 vs 8 - 10:
Second Chronicles 7:14: If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and forgive their sin and heal their land.
James 4:8: Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts; you double-minded.
4:9: Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
4:20: Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
INTIMATION:
Breaking generational curses, as stated yesterday, starts with embracing Christ; accepting Him as your personal Lord and Savior. Subsequently, you take some steps that will break the consequences of the curse, and you will be free. Now that you have embraced Christ, you will take the following steps enumerated below:
(1) Surrender completely to Christ. You must be willing to come into a complete surrender of you and your entire life to the Lord; turning yourself over to Christ’s full control of your entire life. The very first rule in spiritual warfare, before you can even begin to do battle with demonic spirits, is that you have to be walking and operating in a complete surrender of your life with the Lord—He takes over and leads your life into the direction that He will now want it to go in.
The Scripture, in James 4 vs 7 - 8, says, “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts you double-minded.” Notice the first four words – “Therefore submit to God.” Notice this verse starts out with this command. What this means is that you first have to be willing to fully submit to God; yield to His authority and Will, commit your life to Him and His control—spirit, soul, and body, and be willing to follow Him completely. This is very necessary before you can even begin to resist and fight against the devil and his demons to make them flee from you. There are no half measures.
(2) Recognize the curse or problem. In order to get set free and stay free, you have to admit you have a problem. If you really want to be free, you will accept that responsibility. You know what you have been passing through in the hands of the devil.
(3) Confess your sins and/or the sins of your parent(s), even your grand parent(s) and great grand parent(s), to the extent you know or can remember. The Scriptures say, “But if they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, with their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, and that they also have walked contrary to Me … then I will remember My covenant with Jacob, and My covenant with Isaac and My covenant with Abraham I will remember …” (Leviticus 26 vs 40 - 42.) The apostle James says, “Lament, mourn, and weep” (James 4 vs 9) about these sins, and your situation.
Don’t be afraid to express deep heartfelt sorrow for what you and/or parent(s) have done and what you are passing through. God demands that His children should humble themselves before Him; recognize that only God can give you your self-worth. To be humble involves communing with Him in prayers; leaning on His power and His guidance to navigate through life’s circumstances. And with the Holy Spirit’s power, as a child of God, you can resist the devil. The Holy Spirit helps you to cleanse your hands and purify your heart—leading a pure life void of sin; replacing your desire to sin with your desire to experience God’s purity.
Many people seem to confuse remission of sins in spiritual rebirth (being born again) with consequences of sin (effect of curses resulting from sin). Though your sins are forgiven, but the consequences are still effective. This is because having a spiritual rebirth doesn’t take you out of this world. You will still be living in the world and under the external conditions within you.
Though your sins are remitted, but the externalities have not changed; your parents are still your parents, covenants entered into are still binding, as God is a God of covenants, therefore, respects covenants. All legal rights you and/or your parents have given to the devil through your “soul ties,” with your parents or others, are still there for his exploits, and so on. You need to resist the devil for him to flee from you.
The spiritual rebirth rebrands you from the inside. The Holy Spirit gives you the new life through the recreation, and you live in vital union with Christ as your new Master. Note that there is no superficial change that will be quickly superseded by another novelty. But you are no more under the control of Satan; your sin nature has been conquered through the help of the Holy Spirit. You can still sin, but the desire to continue in sin will disappear.
To be continued.
Prayer: Abba Father, whoever you have set free is free indeed. Set me free from any entanglements with any curses; generational or otherwise, in Jesus’ Name I have prayed. Amen.
PRAISE THE LORD!
