Breaking generational curses – Part 3
There are also other things that can bring family, generational curses. They are spilling of blood, sexual immorality and exploitation, rape, betrayal, mockery, treachery, stealing, cheating, etc. Some families are struggling with difficult curses today because their parents or grandparents killed people, especially the innocent.
In January 2008, I was invited to join a church in planting one of their branches in a village. As we entered the new church premises, I noticed that it was a residential building with very untidy surroundings: overgrown grasses and littered with abandoned household properties. Even fruits in the compound were left to ripe and rot away. Only the part of the building for the new church was cleaned and repainted. Later, I overheard the elders of the church discussing how the church got the place. The villagers gave the entire property free-of-charge to the church. All the members of that family had died suddenly and mysteriously – parents, children, young and old. What happened? An innocent visitor was murdered in that place and the family denied knowing what happened to him. This brought a curse of sudden and rapid death upon the whole family. Both their young and old began to die one after the other. In fact, we were told that the descendants of the family who were married out or lived outside the place also died. My God!
Then, as we were continuing with the inaugural crusade that evening, we were also informed that an extended member of the family, who had tampered with the properties of this his late relatives, was also lying critically ill. He was at the point of death. The villagers requested that we pray with him. Terrible! Can you believe this?
A whole family and even extended family members being wiped off because of the murder of just one innocent person. We must indeed be very careful of what we do in this life. When you kill, when you murder another human being, the event does not just stop at that. The blood becomes restless and keeps crying for vengeance. And it can do that for many generations to come.
Murder pollutes the land
Blood is very powerful. In fact, the word of God said that the life of a being is in the blood. Blood speaks. Blood fights. And we can see that physically and spiritually. It also said that anybody that kills should also be killed. Now, even when you are not caught in the act, heaven sees you and the curse will still come for you and your family. Don’t commit murder, don’t waste blood because you have the power or in a position to do it. Don’t instigate, plan, observe, conspire or encourage it. Be careful!
When Cain killed his brother Abel, the brother’s blood refused to be silenced. It kept crying until God heard it and responded appropriately by cursing and banishing Cain. He was made a wanderer, a vagabond and a fugitive. The earth was also cursed because of this. Sometimes, when you see this wandering, vagabond, restlessness, much movement and less results and unproductive spirit in individuals, families and communities, tribes, just check their foundation. It could be as a result of spilling of blood and generational curses. When David indirectly murdered Uriah, God punished him and cursed his family and generations to come. Sadly, Israel still suffers because of this today. When Ahab and Jezebel murdered Naboth, God also arranged their own shameful and painful death and cursed their family. He told Jezebel that dogs would also lick her blood at the same place they licked Naboth’s. When Judas secretly betrayed, conspired and killed Jesus, he was cursed. He hung himself and his family was made desolate. There is no secret before God. Be careful! Now, is your family cursed?
The scripture notes, “ This will ensure that the land where you live will not be polluted, for murder pollutes the land. And no atonement can be made for murder except by the execution of the murderer. You must not defile the land where you are going to live, for I live there myself. I am the LORD, who lives among the people of Israel.” Numbers 35:33-34.
Murder pollutes the land. Murder pollutes lives. It pollutes families. It pollutes nations, etc. Do you still wonder why our families, communities and country are heavily polluted today by crimes, violence, senseless mass shootings, suicides, strange diseases, filthiness and unproductiveness? Spilling of blood! They have been terribly polluted by the blood of the innocent that is daily spilled on the altar of murders, abortions, Satanic rituals for quick money, fame, position and power, etc. They have been polluted by blood of people who are murdered every day.
