Scripture says, "For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light."
Luke 16:18
"I am completely confused by the statement above. Even though believers in Jesus Christ have been filled with the Holy Ghost and saved for many years, they are still struggling with limitations, setbacks, and a reduced quality of life. Meanwhile, I have noticed that non-believers, whether knowingly or unknowingly, are operating by spiritual principles and enjoying the benefits that come with them.
Those who do not believe in Jesus Christ may not be eligible to spend eternity with him after death. However, they can still lead a good quality of life by following spiritual laws, regardless of their awareness of such laws.
In today's teaching, we will discuss cursed properties and the curses that can be acquired through them. Although this may seem unbelievable, the knowledge shared in this session will help you better understand spiritual matters and change your perspective.
Is there such a thing as a cursed property? It is said that a property can be cursed, and various stories in the Bible support this belief. One such story is about Joshua, the leader of the children of Israel, and Jericho. After the walls of Jericho fell, Joshua stood before the land and declared, "May the curse of the LORD fall on anyone who tries to rebuild the town of Jericho. At the cost of his firstborn son, he will lay its foundation. He will set up its gates at the cost of his youngest son" (Joshua 6:26).
Although it may seem at first glance that Joshua's words were just a meaningless rant, their spiritual implications profoundly impacted the land of Jericho. Almost 600 years later, a man named Hiel, who was from Bethel and had no knowledge of the curse placed on Jericho by Joshua, attempted to redevelop the city. According to the Bible's account, while Hiel was constructing the foundation of Jericho, his first son Abiram passed away. Similarly, as he was about to set up the gates of Jericho, his youngest son, Segub, also passed away. The Scripture clearly stated that this was the result of what Joshua had spoken over Jericho 600 years prior, as mentioned in I Kings 16:34. This raises the question - is it possible that someone's negative words over your property, life, etc., be the cause of the chaos you are currently experiencing?
In the book of Jeremiah, God instructed the prophet not to marry or have children in the land where he was living. Specifically, God warned that the children, parents, and grandparents would face terrible deaths. They would suffer from famine, their bodies would be eaten by birds, and no one would mourn for them. Instead, they would be like waste on the face of the earth. This is described in Jeremiah 16:1-8.
God told Jeremiah in no uncertain terms that any connection to that land that was apparently under a curse would bring utter misery to him or anyone who associates with that land. Scripture further records that God said to Jeremiah that the day would come when the inhabitants would ask why all this evil had come upon us.
God said to tell them that this evil is the result of their ancestors who abandoned the Lord and decided to serve other gods. Additionally, he said that this current generation has done worse than their ancestors. Question! Isn't it strange how everyone from a particular state, community, village, Island, or country exhibits specific negative behavior? Such as Adultery, dishonesty, sexual perversion, lying, etc.?
Based on these teachings, have you ever wondered what occurred on that land that has secured a consistent negative cycle for all the inhabitants there? Don't you find it strange that all the men and women from "a certain place" have either been diagnosed with cancer or died from cancer? Let's bring it home to you. How come everyone from your town or settlement has financial difficulties? Why do most women from a particular place during their first and second pregnancies end with a miscarriage? What about all the men from a specific part of your state who seem to have mental issues?
In Judges 6, it is recorded that the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and consequently, the Midianites took over their land. The Midianites literally made them a stranger in their own land. In fact, it was almost as if the promised land was working against the children of Israel. It would be discovered later that Gideon's father had erected an altar in his home and was serving other gods. As a result, the land became cursed for the children of Israel. Question! Which family member has planted whatever on that land that has caused the ground to become unfruitful, no one wants to purchase it, and impossible to rent. Better yet! How is it that everyone who resides on that land experiences sickness, confusion, fatigue, and non-progress, which have become a way of life for them?
In Deuteronomy 7, God warned the children of Israel as they were about to enter Canaan. He cautioned them against marrying or making covenants with the inhabitants of Canaan. God also instructed the children of Israel to destroy the Canaanites' images, jewelry, altars, and groves by fire. The land was cursed, and its inhabitants served other gods and dedicated everything they owned to these gods. Anyone who made covenants or shared possessions with them would be cursed.
Therefore, it's essential to consider the origin of your jewelry and any items you may have acquired from yard sales or elsewhere. If you bring in items from a cursed place, your home may become a place of torment. Similarly, it's essential to be cautious in your relationships and avoid those with a controlling attitude, as this may stem from their origins and the gods they serve.
I would like to remind you of the quote I began this article with, which is from the Scripture: "For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light" (Luke 16:18). I believe this is true because most unbelievers realize that everything originates from the spiritual world. As a result, they focus their attention on this area to achieve their desired outcomes. However, believers tend to concentrate on the physical realm, thus resulting in their consistent non-progress.
In Joshua 9, the children of Israel made a covenant with the Gibeonites, whereby the children were not to harm or even kill the Gibeonites. Years later, King Saul killed the Gibeonites and, as a result, brought evil upon the land of Israel, resulting in a famine for 3 years during King David's reign. Therefore, the land was barren and unable to be produced then. Again, the ground itself was cursed, and so were its inhabitants because of what King Saul had done in the past. Question! What evil covenant was established on your property via witchcraft, and due to the demonic sacrifices offered to other gods, all hell has broken loose on that property.
Some of the signs that would identify generation curses acquired through cursed properties are:
-Never able to complete projects on that property
- Constant sickness among the inhabitants of that property
-You are never able to prosper while on that property
- Almost impossible to married or have children while on that property
- While on that property, you're plagued with confusion and frustration
- Strange noises in the buildings of that property, along with strange odors
- Almost impossible to maintain relationships while on that property
- Vehicles, machinery, and electrical equipment are always in need of repair
- The inhabitants of that property are pruned for mishaps and misfortune.
- Suffer from significant bouts of depression and anxiety
- Children will not excel educationally, will always face trouble, etc.
The above signs are just a few of the myriad issues one will experience while residing on a cursed property. Please! Take a moment and ask God to clarify if the property you own, rent, or occupy is under a generational curse and, as a result, you're being challenged by it. Ask God to provide you with the necessary knowledge to deliver you from this position you've found yourself in. This is necessary because Scripture says, "Through knowledge shall the just be delivered" Proverbs 11:9.
My friend, if there is one thing that I know about deliverance, it is that you must first want to be delivered. Stop suffering unnecessarily and begin to fight back with the spiritual knowledge that God has provided for you in this article.
