Destroying The Evil Covenants Of Our Ancestors
"Our ancestors have sinned, but now they're dead, but we, the current generation, are left to bear their iniquities" Lamentations 5:7
When observed from the surface, the above scripture may not seem to be a significant passage. However, when we analytically review this particular scripture and measure it up to the quality of our lives, Surprisingly, there seems to be a realistic comparison. For example, you were disciplined in your studies to attain a master's degree. However, you now realize that even while being equipped with such a prestigious degree. It was not sufficient to prevent you from
being a victim of the negative pattern of divorce prevalent in your family. Aside from the above example, you were considered for a well-deserved promotion only to learn that someone less qualified was given the promotion. To make matters worse, your doctor's report just came back confirming that you have been diagnosed with Cancer. Again, while you may have been the only one in your family to break the ceiling of education to achieve a master's degree, it did not stop the all too common negative patterns that are synonymous with your family lineage, such as Cancer, divorce, anti-promotion, etc.
Many of us have observed these vicious, ruthless, evil patterns playing themselves out in our lives and the lives of our loved ones. We've reasoned with these occurrences and chalked it up by concluding that such things happen daily to everyone. Many of you, likely reading this article, have had men and women of God speak into your lives or even prophesy about things changing, such as a future promotion, a new home, etc. Nevertheless, because such prophecies have not panned out, we can quickly label the prophets as false prophets. Now, while I agree that there are many false prophets, I also know that from a biblical perspective, an underlying, undiagnosed spiritual issue could prevent certain things from happening in your life.
The scripture mentioned above, a spiritual law, exposes the evil patterns that manifest in our lives. By extension, the lives of our fellow family members do have an origin! In other words, the cycles of negative patterns in our lives are not happening because they could happen or they're happening by chance. Instead, there were certain forbidden practices that our ancestors engaged in that automatically levied these consistent evil patterns on us. This prohibited practice of which I speak is known from a biblical perspective as idol worship, which we learn to be witchcraft, Voodoo, Obeah, Santeria, etc.
In the book of Exodus 20:2-5, it reads as follows:
"I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt and the land of slavery. You shall have no other "gods" before me. You shall not make an image (idol) for yourself in the form of anything in heaven above, on the earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me."
The above scripture has made it clear as it relates to God's position on serving and worshiping other gods and that the punishment of such behavior would be where God (not Satan) will punish the present children of those that practice such forbidden acts and extend it all the way up to their third and fourth generation. As a result of this law now explains why you are either not achieving or not able to go past a certain point or even living a life of negative evil patterns that have literally disabled and crippled you and your family.
With the above understanding in mind, we must also realize that when our ancestors from the fourth generation decided to seek solutions or wanted to place a "fix, hex, spell or curse" on someone through the assistance of witchcraft workers. They unknowingly were causing curses to be levied on us who weren't even born yet, which would have spiritually set restrictions and limitations on us as soon as we were born. So, in essence, those evil covenants established with evil spirits for whatever reason are affecting us to this day simply because they were never confessed or recognized and broken, renounced, etc.
You might say, "Well, Kevin, my parents and grandparents were men and women of God, so what you're saying certainly does not apply to my family and me. You may be correct, but let's look at it differently. Do you recall your parents, grandparents, or any family member mopping their floor with turpentine, Florida Water? What about sprinkling salt around the home, sprinkling ammonia inside the house, or placing garlic on their person to ward off spirits? What about tying black strings around the child's wrist or leg when they become irritable and find it difficult to sleep? Let's take it a step further. What about the specific candles your parents, etc., would burn over a particular piece of paper or place a piece with someone's name written on it on the inside of their shoes? What was that big evil-looking book that your parents or grandparents always seem to be able to retrieve and recite specific stuff from when someone did them or any other family wrong?
You see, my friend, it was these acts, and so many other things that our ancestors and even living relatives (who also claim to be men and women of God) were and are engaging in that has caused us to be limited physically, all due to what they did spiritually. You cannot allow this to continue now that your understanding has been enlightened. In fact, you must not enter into 2017 with these same spiritual restrictions as a result of evil covenants established between your ancestors and evil spirits when participating in witchcraft. If you are a Christian, then you were given power by our Lord Jesus Christ to destroy all evil covenants and evil ordinances that have been unknowingly set up against you, according to Luke 10:19
Please, either now or at the beginning of next year, enter a three-day fast to expressly renounce, reject, and break all evil covenants that have covertly or overtly been speaking against your destiny as a result of the spiritual ignorance of your parents or ancestors which has caused you not to progress in life. Begin by asking God to forgive the iniquities of your ancestors and your own sins, according to Leviticus 26:40-41. Then retrieve scriptures relative to what Christ has done for you on the cross, according to Galatians 3, and include such scriptures in your prayers during your fast, all to break the spiritual shackles that have held you back for so many years. You have asked the Lord why your life has turned out the way it did; nowhere is your answer. "Through knowledge shall the just be delivered" Proverbs 11:9. What happens for you physically next year will depend on what you have broken and renounce spiritually either now or at the beginning of next year!

Get Your Life Together Before Your Appointment With Death
Death marks the end of our earthly life and the separation of our spirit from our physical body. Our participation in earthly affairs ends, whether we have fulfilled our plans and responsibilities or left them unfinished.
We spend considerable time preparing for life’s milestones, yet how much attention do we give to eternity? Beyond our earthly existence, we must face God. Our relationship with Jesus Christ deserves serious attention while we still have the opportunity to respond to Him.
Whether someone dies through an accident, illness, or another cause, the circumstances often bring painful questions for those left behind. Their grief deserves compassion. Yet alongside the question of how someone died stands another question each of us must consider: Am I prepared to meet God?
Ecclesiastes 9:5–6 describes the end of our participation in earthly life:
“For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.”
Consider those words, “under the sun.” Our opportunities to work, serve, repent, and fulfill our earthly responsibilities deserve attention now. We should never assume we will always have time to address what we keep postponing.
A favorable medical report, a job promotion, a marriage, a new baby, or a recently purchased home often gives us reasons to celebrate and plan. These blessings deserve gratitude, but none guarantees another day. We have heard of people who died shortly after reaching a milestone they had spent years anticipating. Their plans were sincere, and their expectations were understandable, yet their lives ended unexpectedly.
My question to you this morning is direct: While preparing for everything else you consider important, have you seriously considered your relationship with God? Have you responded to the gospel of Jesus Christ, or have you continually postponed this decision?
Death does not give preference to education, wealth, influence, or popularity. Your achievements do not buy you more time, and your position in society does not remove your accountability before God. Hebrews 9:27 reminds us of death and the judgment which follows.
Many of us hear the gospel regularly. Some grew up in Christian homes and learned Scripture from childhood. Yet familiarity with Christian teaching does not replace personal repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. You must consider your own response to the truth you have received.
Education and achievement have value in our earthly responsibilities. The danger arises when pride leads us to trust our understanding above God’s Word or believe our success removes our need for Him. The God who delivered Abraham, Moses, and Joseph still deserves our trust and obedience. We must never let His blessings become reasons to disregard Him.
My friends, your degree, job title, possessions, and public reputation do not secure eternal life. Salvation comes through God's grace, through faith in Jesus Christ, as Ephesians 2:8–9 teaches. Have you placed your trust in Him? Have you turned toward God in repentance, or are you depending on your upbringing, good intentions, and achievements?
Do not postpone this examination until you face a crisis. You have an opportunity today to respond to God, seek His forgiveness, and submit your life to Jesus Christ. Give this decision the attention you give your career, family, finances, and future plans.
As you read this message, consider the opportunity before you. You are alive, you have heard the invitation, and you have time to respond now. Second Corinthians 6:2 declares, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”
The passing days remind us how brief our earthly lives are. Weeks become months, and months become years. We should allow this awareness to produce wisdom, gratitude, and obedience.
James 4:14 asks:
“Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.”
Prepare responsibly for your earthly future, and give serious attention to eternity. Place your faith in Jesus Christ and live according to His Word. Tomorrow is uncertain. Respond to Him today.

Symbols Are The Language Of Our Dreams
Understanding the Symbols in Your Dreams
About ninety-five percent of our dreams carry symbols. Once we understand them, these symbols point to a larger truth, a clearer picture of the message God wants us to grasp.
A symbol stands in for something else. In a dream, a vision, or a story, an object, a person, or an idea points to a deeper meaning, whether the connection is obvious or hidden.
Symbols work as the language of our dreams. They carry the coded message inside every dream we have. A dream starts as a mystery. Interpretation turns that mystery into revelation. A dream interpreter translates the symbols and uncovers the spiritual message God built into them.
Dreams lean on symbols because the spirit world where dreams form is complex. The natural mind cannot fully grasp it on its own. Symbols give us something concrete, a way to reflect on real situations in our lives. Scripture uses this same pattern. Parables carry symbols to deliver a message from God or to show the difference between spiritual and physical realities.
Isaiah 5:1-7 tells the parable of the vineyard. A farmer loves his vineyard. He fences it, clears out the stones, and plants the finest vine. He builds a tower in the middle of the vineyard and digs a winepress. He expects the best grapes, since he gave the vineyard the best of everything. Instead, the vineyard produces wild grapes.
In verses 3 and 4, the farmer turns to the people of Jerusalem and Judah: "Judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard. What could I have done more for my vineyard than I have done? When I expected grapes, why did it bring forth wild grapes?"
He answers his own question in verses 5 and 6. He removes the hedge that protected the vineyard, and it faces ruin and exposure. He stops pruning it and plowing it. Thorns and wild bushes grow up in its place. He commands the clouds to withhold rain.
Verse 7 gives the meaning behind every symbol in the parable. The vineyard represents the house of Israel. The men of Judah are the farmer's pleasant plant. The farmer is the Lord God himself. God gave Israel protection and provision and expected righteous judgment in return. Instead, Israel produced oppression. Because of this, God removed his protection, and other nations moved in against them. Poverty and hardship became their portion.
Every symbol in this parable maps onto Israel's past, present, and future, because the nation failed to produce what God equipped it to produce.
Matthew 12:43-44 gives a second example. Jesus describes what an unclean spirit does after it leaves a person. The spirit wanders through dry places looking for rest and finds none. Then it says, "Let me return to my house, the place I came from." Jesus calls the person's life a house. When a house shows up in a dream, it usually points to a person's life. A large house or an apartment complex points to a family or a group of people.
Learning the language of our dreams means learning to read these symbols. That kind of understanding comes through the Holy Spirit, sent to lead us into all truth.

Understanding the System of Witchcraft: How Evil Altars Operate
program a person's life to experience perpetual hardship, failure, depression, and lack of progress. However, the programming of the system of witchcraft cannot be achieved outside of what is known in the world of witchcraft as an evil altar or shrine.
What an Evil Altar Is
An altar or shrine is a place where divinity meets humanity, where the visible meets the invisible, to forge evil demonic covenants with evil spirits targeted explicitly at the lives of others. The life of the altar depends on the sacrifice made there, which in turn summons particular evil spirits to attack a person.
However, because spirits are not omnipresent, the practitioners of the evil altar require something personal belonging to the intended target, such as a photo, fingernail clippings, worn clothing, hair, or blood. These items, except a picture of the victim, carry the victim's DNA, so that, spiritually, the assigned evil spirits can locate their intended target in the spirit realm. This is why it is so important to cover yourself and your loved ones daily with the whole armor of God and the blood of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
When these evil workers of witchcraft cannot retrieve such personal items from their victim, they consult the evil spirits from the altar and mix a concoction, either to bury on the intended victim's property or to place somewhere the victim will make contact with it. Other methods include placing it in the victim's food, drink, or clothing, or projecting evil spirits from the evil altar into the victim's dreams. Dreams where one is constantly being fed, eating, drinking, having sex, or interacting with dead people are all means by which evil spirits are projected from demonic altars to begin the process of spiritually oppressing the life of the victim.
When the Curse Wasn't Meant for You
I am sure you've heard of someone said to be "fixed," but it wasn't intended for them. In such a case, the witch or wizard could not acquire anything personal belonging to the intended victim, so they placed the concoction in the path they believed the intended victim would travel. In another instance, spiritual concoctions are put on food or drink items in hopes that the intended target will consume them. Instead, someone else consumed it or walked on it. That person, not the intended target, has now become the point of contact that begins the evil, oppressive spiritual cycle of the system of witchcraft.
What Scripture Says
"Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God." (Leviticus 19:31)
The word "defiled" in this text means to corrupt or change the original nature of something. Therefore, the purpose of wizards and witches, and their attempts to enslave their victims spiritually to the system of witchcraft, is to change God's original intent for their lives, ensuring they become the opposite of God's original purpose for them.
"Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it." (Genesis 1:28)
God's original plan for man is to be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth. In other words, God always wanted people to advance in their earthly journey. The system of witchcraft is designed to bring man's natural process of advancing in every area of life to a slow and unproductive state.
Signs Witchcraft Is Operating Against You
Some of the most common signs of witchcraft operating against a person are overwhelming panic and anxiety attacks. This is usually accompanied by a progressive state of confusion and an abnormal inability to focus or concentrate on everyday activities. The purpose of these initial attacks is to begin slowly disabling the victim from progressing in every area of life, including losing the desire for people, places, and things they once loved and had a passion for. These attacks originate in spiritual manipulation, driven by the calculating efforts of evil spirits.
The second phase of a witchcraft attack causes the victim to see, hear, and experience things that others cannot see, hear, or experience. If the victim then speaks of these strange experiences to others, they appear crazy or bizarre, which isolates them from friends and family, since their experiences are too incredible to be believed.
At this point, the victim has fallen into the trap of becoming a recluse due to the efforts of evil spirits. The assigned spirits from the satanic altar where they were summoned begin projecting overwhelming evil thoughts spiritually at the victim, which the victim believes are their own thoughts: negative thoughts, suicidal thoughts, depression, and similar patterns. Unfortunately, it is the victim's ignorance of the system of witchcraft that literally becomes the fuel of this demonic system. In other words, the victim cannot fight what they are unaware of, which places them at a significant disadvantage.
God's Plan Versus the System of Witchcraft
The idea, intent, and purpose behind the oppressive system of witchcraft is ultimately to challenge God's original plan for mankind: to resist man's natural, God-given ability to be fruitful, multiply, replenish, and subdue the earth. In other words, man should continually advance according to Genesis 1:28.
In essence, God's will is for man to continually develop and progress for as long as he exists on earth. The system of witchcraft, on the other hand, is designed to prevent this progress through hardship, depression, poverty, and confusion, along with causing man to connect with what he has no business connecting with. These connections, which are obviously not from God, are designed by the adversary with one purpose: to block and ultimately stop man's progress.

God's word above EVERYTHING else
Whatever challenge you're facing today, find a Bible scripture related to your situation, and quietly repeat it while believing in what you're saying until that scripture becomes more consuming than the challenge.
By doing so, you're aligning yourself with the word of God, which I might add is the spirit of God. The law of the spirit world states that spiritual things manifest in our natural world when a human spirit aligns with the spiritual realm.
Why Speaking the Word Carries Power
Scripture does not treat words as empty sound. It treats them as containers of life and death:
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." (Proverbs 18:21)
Jesus modeled this principle Himself when He cursed the fig tree and told His disciples plainly what was available to them:
"For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." (Mark 11:23)
Notice that Jesus did not say the mountain moves because you feel confident. He said it moves because of what you say and believe in your heart. This is the same principle behind repeating a scripture over your situation until it outweighs what you see in the natural. You are not reciting a slogan. You are exercising the authority given to you through the spoken word of God.
God Remembers His Word; You Are Invited to Agree With It
This is why God's word encourages us to remember it. It's not that He has forgotten His promise, but that we are invited to participate and agree with His word to see His promises come to pass.
God says of His own word:
"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." (Isaiah 55:11)
He confirmed this same commitment to the prophet Jeremiah:
"Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it." (Jeremiah 1:12)
Every promise God has spoken over your life is already in motion. Your agreement does not create the promise. Your agreement positions you to receive what He already set in motion.
Ultimately, the Lord's eyes and presence are constantly moving across the earth, seeking those who have chosen to align with Him so He can demonstrate His strength in their situations:
"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." (2 Chronicles 16:9)
He is not searching for the most talented or the most comfortable. He is searching for the heart that has chosen to agree with Him over its own circumstances.
Why Complainers Keep Waiting
This explains why complainers, negative individuals, or those who elevate their situations above God's word are still waiting and will continue to wait for God to act in their lives. They have placed their circumstances ABOVE the word of God, despite His clear statement in Psalm 138:2:
"I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name." (Psalm 138:2)
Scripture warns believers directly against this pattern of hearing without acting:
"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." (James 1:22)
A complainer has heard the word. A complainer has not agreed with the word. There is a difference between knowing a scripture and speaking it over your life until it becomes louder than your complaint.
Prioritize the Word Above Your Circumstance
If God has prioritized His word above His name, then it is wise for us to prioritize His word above our circumstances. Faith itself is built this way:
"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10:17)
The more you speak and hear God's word concerning your situation, the more faith rises to meet it. This is not positive thinking. This is a spiritual law: what you feed consistently is what grows strongest in you, whether that is fear fed by your circumstance or faith fed by His word.
Solomon described the word of God as more than encouragement. He described it as medicine:
"My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh." (Proverbs 4:20-22)
Whatever you are facing today, physical, financial, relational, or spiritual, His word is not only truth for your spirit. It is health for your body and stability for your circumstance.
My Word for Today
My scripture that I'm using to feed my human spirit today is:
"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." (Philippians 4:13)
Find yours. Search the scriptures until you locate the word that speaks directly to what you are facing. Then repeat it, believe it, and let it grow louder than the challenge in front of you, until what God has already spoken becomes what you see.
