Are You Cursing Yourself?

In a past episode, Are You Cursing Yourself? (326) we asked: Have you ever been praying and praying but something seems off or not, correct? Your heart believes you are moving forward. You are doing all you know to do but you can sense something is missing. There are areas in our wisdom of God that are unrenewed to the word of God. If you’re not reading the bible you don’t get the revelation and thus stay at the same spiritual level. Not because God doesn’t love you but, because you have not done the work of studying the word to show yourself approved. If you are not moving forward, go back and check the fine print of the bible. This is one way you have cut your own blessings short. God is faithful and supplies all of our needs. The blessing has gone forth because God finishes what He has started.  The question is:

If no weapon formed against us shall prosper, are we the weapon formed against ourselves? What we speak can create our world and daily lives. If we don’t know the word, we can’t speak it to bless ourselves. If your life is not what it should be, what part have you played in making it blessed or cursed? Your life is what you speak it is, how holy your lifestyle is, remaining in Christ, and doing what the bible says in obedience. This week we will discuss the following:

  • The importance of Knowing God and His word
  • The importance of Knowing the devices of the enemy
  • If the devil is not cursing me, this time, then who is?
  • What weapon is formed against me?
  • How can I curse myself?
  • Careless words can gain access to your life
  • How can someone free themselves?

Commentary – One area that we should all be mindful of is what comes out of our mouth. There is life and death in the power of the tongue. Proverbs 18:21 – 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]. |
Commentary – This is why it is important to know God and speak His word

  • The importance of Knowing God and His word

Commentary – We can pray all day but if we are not praying God’s word, nothing is going forth. The angels harken unto God’s word. The angels are waiting to carry out God’s word. So, if you’re not using his word, nothing has happened. Imagine praying all day and not using His words.

Psalms 103:19 to 21 – 19 The Lord has established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom rules over all.

20 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, you His angels, you mighty ones who do His commandments, hearkening to the voice of His word.

21 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, all you His hosts, you His ministers who do His pleasure.

Jeremiah 1:12 – (God Speaking to Jeremiah) – 12 Then said the Lord to me, you have seen well, for I am alert and active, watching over My word to perform it.

Proverbs 20:24 – 24 Man’s steps are ordered by the Lord. How then can a man understand his way?

Commentary – Knowing the Lord, helps us to know, what is not the Lord. Knowing what is not the Lord helps us to identify where the enemy is in our lives. How can we spot the devil in our house if we can’t recognize what’s God and what’s the devil? In order to know the Lord, you must be in relationship with Him, daily praying and reading His word (Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God). The enemy tries to gain access to areas in your mind and life in the areas that you have not renewed to the word of God. The unsaved mind is different from the saved mind. For Example – A car mechanic can over charge you on parts and labor as long as you don’t know how your car works and where parts are located. That person has access to steal from you as long as you are ignorant to the Wisdom and knowledge you need to be learning.

The devil doesn’t take vacation. Your ignorance is His access point, or open door to your life. How can the mind be renewed? What is mind renewal – Changing your thoughts, beliefs, lifestyle, ideas, wants, needs, desires, culture to a Kingdom minded perspective that’s not your own but God’s will being done – the Kingdom of God’s new ideals and its new attitude

Romans 12:2 – 2 Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].

Commentary – Don’t you love how God made it possible for you to have the knowledge and wisdom you need just by reading and studying His word.

  • The importance of Knowing the devices of the enemy

The word says in – 2 Corinthians 2:11- 11 To keep Satan from getting the advantage over us; for we are not ignorant of his wiles and intentions. (Know the devices of the enemy.) John 10:10 (lets us know the devices of the enemy.) – 10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came (Jesus) that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).

Commentary – When we think of John 10:10 think about areas in your life where something is stolen, killed or, destroyed. Some of those are the blessings that you were supposed to receive and the enemy had stolen them or killed dreams you had. If you did not get the blessing the enemy did. The areas that I am talking about are areas where you have been living righteously and Holy. Not something that you feel your entitled to or something you never studied or worked towards getting. Things that would help you glorify the Lord. What does this mean? Here is an example: You have been raising money to feed the orphans in your village. Someone came along and stole the money just as you were going to buy food for the hungry children. This is an example of something that describes John 10:10 – How the thief comes to steal. Be sure to ask the Holy Spirit to bring anything to remembrance that happened to you that you did not do to yourself. What I mean by this is that, you did not do it to yourself. Example – A example of a person doing something to themselves is going out and getting drunk, then they crash their car and go to jail. This is something they did to themselves because they were drinking and driving recklessly. Another example is going to school but never studying to get good grades. This is that person not studying to show themselves approved. Although the person prayed to God to pass their classes, when they don’t study, are in sin, quenched the Holy Spirit, they have thrown away God’s blessings and need to take responsibility for that. When making your list the more honest you are about things that happened to you, you will be able to see clearly what is the devil and what was just you. Remember only the truth will set you free.

  • If the devil is not cursing me, this time, then who is?

Commentary –First we must look at, what part God plays in your life, what part the devil plays in your life, and what part you play in your life. Have we prayed, fasted, waited on the Lord? Are we saved, living Holy righteous, repented lives, remaining in Christ? Have we forgiven everyone, removed all bitterness? Are we still in a secret sin and believing we can sin and not quench the Holy Spirit or get caught? Take time to think about these questions and answer them, to yourself in your spare time.

  • What weapon is formed against me?

Isaiah 54:17 – 17 But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord.

Commentary – What if we are the weapon formed against ourselves? Story time: I once spoke to a lady who said she was a believer. She was quick to say she belonged to the Lord. She asked me, why is she under such attack? I thought that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. I answered – we must examine ourselves and life to compare the words we say, to the life we live. As she began to say that I can’t think of anything, her family begin to say, you watch movies with witchcraft spells, your kids play video games that have demonic spirits and people killing. The concerts you go to, the social media you watch, the voodoo and crystals in your house, the alters you have…..etc. Clearly the lady needed to open her eyes to the lifestyle choices being made in her life.

Commentary – In the story the woman was looking for weapons somebody else had formed against her. The truth came from people, places, things, that she had let into her life and home. Remember only the truth can set you free. If you want true freedom, you need to begin with yourself.

Commentary – Let’s look at – (This is Jesus talking to the Disciples about the devil) John 14:30–30 I will not talk with you much more, for the prince (evil genius, ruler) of the world is coming. And he has no claim on Me. [He has nothing in common with Me; there is nothing in Me that belongs to him, and he has no power over Me.]

Commentary – A person might be looking outside of their house for a attack against them and it could be the sex before marriage, the drugs, drinking, witchcraft, backstabbing, gossip, demonic concerts, demonic music, social media, something they stole, how you demonic treatment of parents, lying, cheating, lying to people about needing money because they are kind, manipulation of people, rage, anger, bitterness, adultery, the list can go on and on. No one else can review your life but you. No one can repent for your life but you. Start with the truth and ask the Holy Spirit to bring things to remembrance that you have done.

How can I curse myself?

Proverbs 18:21 – 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life].

Be slow to speak, slow to anger – James 1:19 to 21 – 19 Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. 20 For man’s anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires].

21 So get rid of all uncleanness and the rampant outgrowth of wickedness, and in a humble (gentle, modest) spirit receive and welcome the Word which implanted and rooted [in your hearts] contains the power to save your souls.

James 1:20 – 20 For man’s anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]. Commentary – Another area that can be working against you, from within you, is what you are speaking during times of heavy emotions, rage, anger, frustration, distraction, sorrow, sadness, hopelessness. James 1:20 – 20 For man’s anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]. Commentary – All these things open doors to the enemy. These doors were opened by you and what you say during these times. This is why James 1:19 says – Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry.

Careless words can gain access to your life – finances, destiny, relationships, why because Proverbs 18:21 – 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]. Commentary – When life has turned out a certain way, slow down, think about what you say, to friends, family, coworkers, curse words, self-doubt speaking hopelessness, depression, I am broke,” “Nothing is working,” and “I don’t care anymore” Understand that speaking – Hopelessness, Sickness, disease, death, defeat, is harmful to your spiritual growth.

Matthew 15:10-11 – 10 And Jesus called the people to Him and said to them, Listen and grasp and comprehend this:

11 It is not what goes into the mouth of a man that makes him unclean and defiled, but what comes out of the mouth; this makes a man unclean and defiles [him].

Words open doors – some are cancelling blessings with their own words from their mouth.

Examples –
     – This is killing me, I will never pass this class or this test

  • I’m dying to try this, you’re sick, you make me sick
  • I’m sick and tired of this, I can never find a decent man, I can’t get pregnant, nothing is working, I can’t do it

Negative words are covenants, agreements of what you are saying you believe. As a man thinks in his heart so is he. Proverbs 23:7

Fearful words are seeds – seeds take root, grow and can anchor themselves into your life if you’re not praying and remaining in Christ

Defeated and hopeless confessions are open doors to the enemy

  • How can someone free themselves?
  • Stop, slow down, be slow to speak, action – only speak what needs to happen not what is happening. You might even have to almost say nothing at times to control yourself.

Replace your negative speech with Gods word – Remember the importance of God’s word -Let the weak say I am strong, the Lord is my Provider, all things work together for good, my God shall supply all my needs,

  • Be consistent
  • Stop and listen to what you are saying
  • Acknowledge that what you are saying is coming from what you are thinking
  • Change your thoughts, change your mind, change your speech, change your life
  • Replace negative speech with Gods word on that topic

Here is a prayer you can say: Of course, if you’re not pursuing Jesus or His kingdom, this won’t bring results if you’re still living in sin. The idea is to remove sin from your life. Thank you, Lord, for setting the captive free as they are obedient to this teaching and do what it says to do.

Check your heart, speak life, speak out loud daily

PRAYER –   Father, in the name of Jesus, I come before you with humility. I come as your child, knowing that life and death are in the

power of my tongue, I renounce every negative word I have spoken knowingly or unknowingly. Every word that opened the door to demons of poverty, stagnation, and lack. Father, have mercy on me. Cleanse me with the blood of Jesus. Purge my tongue. Purge my atmosphere. Purge my home. Purge my finances. Lord Jesus, forgive me for every careless word. Every faithless confession, every agreement I made with the lies of the enemy.

Forgive me for saying, I am broke. Nothing is working. I don’t care anymore. And every other statement that contradicted your word.

Let the blood of Jesus wash my mouth, wash my mind, wash my atmosphere, wash my finances. From today, my tongue becomes an altar of power. My words become seeds of prosperity. My mouth aligns with heaven. In the name of Jesus,

I break every covenant created by my words.

Every demonic agreement formed through fear, anger, complaint, frustration, or hopelessness. I break it now.

Every covenant formed when I said I am

broke. Nothing is working. I don’t care anymore.

I will never make it. Things always go

wrong. Money never stays in my hands. Let the

blood of Jesus scatter those covenants

now. I cancel them. I nullify them. I

erase them. I uproot them. I destroy

them forever in Jesus’ name.

Every demonic decree and spiritual

handwriting standing against my finances

be blotted out by the blood of Jesus.

every spirit of lack, dryness, empty pockets, devourers, wasters, emptiers, destroyers, and financial oppressors.

I command you, get out of my life. Get out of my home.

Get out of my business. Get out of my destiny in the name of Jesus. I shut every door I opened with my words.

I shut every gate, every portal,

every access point. Poverty demons, your legal right is revoked. Now begin to

speak life. I declare the Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.

I declare my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory. I declare all things work together for my good.

I declare wealth and riches are in my house.

I declare the blessing of the Lord makes

me rich and adds no sorrow.

I declare I prosper in all things and remain in health.

I declare the lines have fallen for me

in pleasant places.

I declare my hands are blessed, my mind

is blessed, my work is blessed.

I declare money flows to me

effortlessly.

Opportunities find me. Helpers rise for

me.

Doors open for me. Favor surrounds me.

Grace rests on me. Everything I lost,

time, money, peace, opportunities

be restored sevenfold in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
