TOPIC: Breaking Parental Curses (II) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 20 April 2022)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 31:30, Deuteronomy 32, Luke 19:45-48, Luke 20:1-26, Psalm 48:9-14
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Deuteronomy 30:1-10 (KJV)
1 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath driven thee,
2 And shalt return unto the Lord thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;
3 That then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath scattered thee.
4 If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the Lord thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:
5 And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
6 And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
7 And the Lord thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.
8 And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the Lord, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
9 And the Lord thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the Lord will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:
10 If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.
MEMORY VERSE: “13 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: 14 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

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
Let every parental curse under which you labour, break by fire, in the Name of Jesus.
MFM Devotional For Today MESSAGE:
Parental curses are curses issued by parents against their offspring. Parental curses have grave consequences as we can see in the case of Jacob and some of his children upon whom he laid curses. These are Reuben, Levi and Simeon (Genesis 49). These curses followed them throughout their lifetime. One must be careful not to attract or invite parental curses upon one’s life.

Once a curse is in place, there will be trouble, pain, hardship, delay, stagnancy, and turbulence in every area of life. As a matter of fact, things go haywire when a life, a thing or a place is under a curse as we can see in the case of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3: 23-24).
The question is this, what could make a parent to lay curses on his or her child or children? There are many factors that can lead to this. The first is disobedience. A disobedient child can attract curses from his or her parents. The second is frustration. A frustrated parent can lose control and lay curses on the children. The third is demonic possession. A parent who is demon-possessed will lay curses on the children. The fourth is anger. Some parents vent their anger on their children by cursing them. The fifth is occult practices. A parent who is involved in the occult could be mandated to lay curses on the children. The list goes on and on. Some parents even curse their children unconsciously.
What type of parent will resort to cursing when he or she is not happy with a child? It is a parent who is ignorant or not born again. A parent that curses a child lacks the fruit of the Spirit and is very carnal. Under no condition should a parent curse his or her child. Although children can sometimes behave in such a way that can provoke their parents to anger, parents must exercise restraint. Instead of cursing, they should pray prayers of blessings.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
- Let the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead break any parental curse upon me now, in the Name of Jesus.
- Let the evil presence behind my case disappear now, in the Name of Jesus.
- I reject curses and I claim blessings, in the Name of Jesus.
EVENING
- Let heavens begin to defend me, in the Name of Jesus.
- O Lord, pour Your oil into my life and heal my roots, in the Name of Jesus.
- O Lord, deliver me from any curse hindering me, in the Name of Jesus.
- Every curse issued from the coven against me, break, in the Name of Jesus.
