YOU MUST AVOID CURSES II

Memory Verse

How shall I curse, whom God hath not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the Lord hath not defied?

(KJV)

Message

When you check through the Scriptures, and you see the impact of God’s curse on any person or group of people, if you are wise, you will do everything possible to ensure that God doesn’t get angry with you at all. The power of a blessing or a curse is dependent on the spiritual authority of the fellow who is placing the blessing or curse. Since God is higher than the highest, a curse from Him is so potent that nothing can break the curse except God Himself. Since there is no remedy to a curse from God, any wise fellow will avoid anything that will make God curse him or her. 

 

Since God placed a curse on the ground after the fall of Adam (), man has had to toil and sweat on it with limited returns. I pray that you will make it to the millennial reign of Christ because by then, we will be having robust harvests monthly and not the little yearly harvests we are having now (). 

 

If you read the story of Cain in , you will notice that the moment God cursed him, everyone he encountered wanted to harm him, even without provocation. When you read the Scriptures and come across something that God forbids or that would attract a curse from Him, you should stay away from such a thing. For example, He said in that those who don’t pay their tithes are robbing God, and they will attract a curse on themselves. Even without the promise of overflowing blessings for paying your tithe, the curse alone should make you pay your tithes faithfully. Also, in , God said that if the children of Israel did not hearken to His voice and obey His commandments, certain curses shall come upon them and overtake them. This is why you must ensure that you live a life that is in total obedience to God’s commandments and principles. 

 

Lastly, when you meet a true Christian, a descendant of Abraham by faith, don’t try to place a curse on such a fellow because the result will be that you will attract God’s curse on yourself (). Beloved, God’s curses are very terrible, and they are irreversible except if He has mercy on you. Do all you can to avoid God’s curses.

Key Point

Stay away from anything that can attract a curse from God.

Hymn

Title: YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION

1. Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin;
Each victory will help you some other to
win;
Fight manfully onward, dark passions
subdue;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
Ask the saviour to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.

2. Shun evil companions, bad language
disdain;
God’s name hold in reverence, nor take it in
vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and
true;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.

3. To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Thro’ faith we will conquer, though often
cast down;
He who is our Saviour,
our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
