YOU MUST AVOID CURSES II

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

And they heard the [sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”

10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?”

12 Then the man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”

13 And the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the field; on your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.

15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.”

16 To the woman He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; in pain you shall bring forth children; your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’: “Cursed is the ground for your sake; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life.

18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field.

19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for dust you are, and to dust you shall return.”

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 individual 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 individual will avoid anything that will make God curse him or her.

Since God placed a curse on the ground after the fall of Adam, Genesis 3:17, human beings 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, Revelation 22:2-3.

  • If you read the story of Cain in Genesis 4:9-15, 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 Malachi 3:8-10 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 Deuteronomy 28:15-20, 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 an individual because the result will be that you will attract God’s curse on yourself, Genesis 12:3.

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.

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