So let's move forward and cover a few more things. The term curse is a descriptive term more than a thing or a living entity. Please remember that. A curse got on me. You don't need to figure out how to break the curse as much as you need to figure out how did it get on you. Because see, let's just go with the thought. So a curse got on me. I need to someone pray over it. We need to break this thing and cast the demons off so I come out from underneath the curse. If you don't change how you're living, because something you're doing, let that curse establish. If you don't change this, trying to stop the curse is wasted time. Something you're doing is putting yourself in that flow. The word curse is just a descriptive term. It's describing what happens when the power of sin or the flow of darkness operates. That's all it is. And demons come right along with that. It's just how it works. It's just a package deal. We decide whether we're there or not, though. And see, this is the misconception of Christians. I was doing everything right. And a curse got on me. That's not possible, scripturally. There has to be a landing pad for them to land. And we'll give you some scripture for that in here in a bit. But it doesn't just randomly happen. The term blessing is a descriptive word. It's describing what happens when the power of God and the flow of God's kingdom gets on us. To be free of what we call a curse or to be free of that flow, sin has to be dealt with. That's the second thing Jesus did. And it is the major thing. Because actually from God's perspective, if we're not following the leading of the spirit, which was the first thing I said, you got to follow the leading of the spirit and you got to stay free of sin. Live in faith. Follow the leading spirit. It'll put you in faith. If we're not doing that from God's perspective, we're missing it. And anytime we miss it from God's perspective, that's called sin. Sin is not just transgression of the law. Sin is omission. Why? I missed it. Well, if you were perfect, you wouldn't have missed it, would you? But since you're imperfect, you sinned. You missed it. Remember the three Greek words for sin? One means transgression. You went into no trespassing territory. You saw the sign. I want to go anyway. The second one is you wandered off the path. You were supposed to be on this path and you wandered off and got distracted. The third one is like you're shooting at a target and you didn't hit the target. You missed everything. God calls that sin because in the perfect world, you don't miss that. You hit it. You aimed at it. You hit it. So the concept of... Well, we got to be free of this curse. There's always something called sin ground. Well, you got to cast the demon out. Well, we can, but it's, you know, either we got to find out what the sin ground is before we cast that out or after. Doesn't make any difference. Can be done either way. But at some point, we got to find out why it's there. Is this generational? Is this authoritative? Is this a spoken word? What happened that got you in a flow where a demon got to hold you? And it's actually not the demon that's the problem. It's the power of sin that the demon's enforcing in your life. So you got to get the power of sin dealt with. Jesus did that for us. He got us free from the curse. But we need to appropriate it by faith and make every effort to live in that freedom. Remember, the just shall live by faith. That's not just starting. That's not just getting saved. That's every day of our life. The just shall live by faith. And the blessing of Abraham might come upon us, us as the Gentiles, through Jesus and faith. And here's the scripture that says that. No one is justified by the law on the sight of God. It's evident that just have to live by faith. Yet the law is not a faith. Man who does these things is the one who has to live in them. That's the law. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law. See, the whole flow that gets on us, that is described in the law and basically says this. You do wrong, you're going to get under this flow. Which means now you're cursed. That was the law. Everything was on what we did. The New Testament's not law. So translate that over here. Because this is very performance perfection based. I got to do everything right or a curse is going to get on me. I will never do everything right. That's why the good news is by faith through grace. I don't have to do everything right. I never will. It's okay. I'm under grace. It's okay to miss some things once in a while. It does not remove me from grace. By grace, by faith, I don't have to be perfect. And I can still live victoriously. And the stronger I stand here, the longer I stand here, the better it gets. Over here you had the law just said, if you don't do it perfect, you're under curse. This whole flow is going to come on you and destroy your life. Jesus says, you don't have to be perfect. Receive me as your savior. And I will cover you with grace. Stay in that grace. Now we can get out from underneath that grace. Just by getting stubborn and disobedient. Just stay in the grace. Don't lie to your friend. And worry all the way home whether you're going to hit a deer or not. Just don't lie to your friend. Just stay in the grace. And keep going here and if a little thing attacks you and dings you, whatever, God will heal it. He'll take care of it, life goes on. It's going to be okay. Difference between Old Testament and New Testament because Jesus set us free from the curse. So, what shall we say then? Shall we continue to sin? That grace may abound? No, you don't just keep living and sin because that will get you over in this flow. We're supposed to be dead to sin. How can we live in it any longer? Likewise, reckon yourselves to be dead, indeed, to sin but alive to Christ. Therefore, don't let sin reign in your mortal body that you should obey it because when you let yourself live in sin... Next verse. Maybe it was there. Let me back up. Yeah, it was there. When you let yourself live in sin, it will have dominion over you. Verse 14. So, don't let yourself live in sin because law and sin should not have dominion over you because you're under grace. But if you let yourself live in sin, it will have dominion over you. Paul said you can either serve righteousness and be a slave to it or you can serve unrighteousness, ungodliness and be a slave to it. Either way, you're a servant and it will dominate you. I would much rather be dominated by blessing. Just bring it on, run me over, run me flat. Blessing, come on. I'm good with that. I don't want to be dominated by okay, anything evil wants to hit me, come on. Have at it. No. And it all goes back to sin ground to live free of the curse, to live free of demons, you got to get out of sin. You do that by faith through grace. Now, they couldn't make a mistake or they were in trouble. We can make a mistake and go back and confess our sin and ask forgiveness. And he, what does 1 John 1 9 say? If we confess our sins, he's faithful and just to forgive us. That's that kingdom. We're now forgiven. And to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, that's that kingdom. We're back free again, both kingdoms because we're going to make mistakes. It's okay. Just do what's right when you mess up. Confess it and repent and move on. The curse is not something where we're living innocent lives and this evil thing got on us. The reason things start falling apart in our life is because we're living under the wrong flow. The power of sin curses don't randomly attach to people. We have put ourself there. A spiritual opening was made and that's how we got into it. Okay, question and answers. Right there and there. So we'll jump right in. Here's two ladies. Vicki was one. So those of you live streaming, you're going to go with us the whole nine yards tonight. We're not going to cut you off. So how does that work with generational sin? We're still getting to that. Good question, though. We're going to get there tonight yet, I think. Right over there. When you were talking about it has to have a reason. It just can't jump on you. I thought about that scripture. I don't know where it is. I know it's scriptural, but I don't know where in the Bible, but it says a curse causeless will not come. Proverbs 26-2, I've got it right here. It's coming up next. There has to be a cause. Yeah, yeah. So I've been thinking about that. Going over this. And now I really... I did figure it out. I mean, but that really sums it up. Yeah, it really does. We're out of alignment somehow. We're not walking in the spirit. Somehow we're off. And it lets the cause take place. And again, we have to own it. Can't confess it if you don't own it. Yeah, get rid of it. Get it out. Yeah, you got to confess the sin to get set free of the thing, and you got to own it to confess it. Anybody else? Good, we'll move on. Didn't leave much time there. We're going to get to what Vicki's talking about. What is the power? So this is just kind of review of everything I've been saying. So I've got it on the PowerPoint so everybody can download this and look at it again, whatever. What is the power of the evil flow? It's sin. It's Satan. There's scriptures for it. I just quoted some to you out of Romans 6. Romans 6, 7, and 8 talks about it very much. To get under Satan's spiritual flow is to open yourself up to what is described as the curse. The power of the evil flow when it comes to curses is this. No curse can land on us unless it has a reason. And there's the scripture that was being referred to Proverbs 26, 2, like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow. An undeserved curse does not come to rest. That was true. You say that's Old Testament. I know that's true, but guess what? We are living in the New Testament dispensation, but if we don't accept the grace and the savior of grace, we're still under law. We will be judged by what we do. Realize that? Jesus came to set us free of that, but if we don't get free of it, we're still under it. We do this, we do that, we do all these things wrong. The reason for the curse is disobedience. Deuteronomy 28, 15. However, if you do not obey the Lord your God and do not carefully follow all His commands and decrees, I'm giving you today, all these curses will come upon you. You're going to get under that flow. Genesis 3, here we're talking to Cain. The Lord said, no, this isn't Cain, this is Adam and Eve. The Lord said, because you have done this, you are cursed. See the basis for evil flow, getting here, getting demonic problems, having our life all apart is somehow we're out of step with God's flow. We're caught on an evil side. We're caught under the demonic flow. And that's what that says right there. So, now let's go and get into what we can answer Vicki's question. So the first thing I want to show you, and I talked about this two, three weeks ago, and hopefully I can make it plain tonight. You have like a car, picture it like a car. I say the vehicles are numerous. The vehicles of curses are numerous. There's seven of them I've listed, there's probably more. Picture it like you're riding in a car or truck. The car or the truck is the power of sin is riding on to get into our life, that vehicle. The passengers or the ones working with where that vehicle goes in a curse situation would be the demons, fallen angels, familiar spirits. They're riding the vehicle. The vehicle is what we have going on in our life. That is wrong. There are, for instance, generational curses. So what I'm saying is the vehicle that could be driving you through life could be a generational curse. Will there be demons on board? Yeah, they'll be inside, if it's a pickup they'll be in the back, they'll be all over that thing. Because the vehicle is a generational, you're in the wrong flow here and it's a generational problem. The vehicle could be a spoken word curse. We can curse people by our words. Remember, we're creative. You will never amount to anything. You just curse them. You just set a vehicle going in their life that is not over here. It's not a blessing from God. God wants us to succeed and prosper. Everything we lay our hand to prospers. Everything you touch falls apart. You will never amount to anything. We have just created a vehicle of a curse or a wrong flow in their life by our spoken words. That has to be dealt with or it will try to land. Now it doesn't have the right to land if we're clean, but how many of us are 100% clean? So we'll go through these and we'll come back and start talking about them and see how far we get tonight. Number three personal sin can get us into the wrong flow or into the wrong vehicle. Authoritative sin. That can be parents. It can be companies. It can be governments. Like the book of Judges was just all over the charts up and down, Israel up and down, up and down depending upon who was in charge. and bosses. Joseph, perfect example of that. And of course there's a in Joseph's life, you got some bad things happening because he's under the wrong authority, but then he gets offered some authority and all of a sudden the whole nation's blessed because of him. So it can go both ways. Our government right now we are living under some curses because of our government and the leaders who are making choices in this land. And there's nothing we can do about it until we change that leadership. For instance the goofy sexuality thing now that's being mandated from the top down. Well we just won't accept that. You've got no choice. It's in the school systems. It's in every federal building every, you know, it's here. The only way we'll change that is we got to change the authority that we're under. If you've been involved in occult, witchcraft, satanism, that realm that obviously can put you in under the wrong flow. If you have physical items that were used for evil and we'll talk about these things and then the last one I brought up last week not tithing. That one very specifically says that you'll be cursed with a curse. We're not tithing. So you've got the vehicle of the curses and there's seven of them listed there that get going in our life and take us for a ride, so to speak. The occupants of the vehicle, the enforcers, the drivers, the riders of curses as fallen angels, demons, familiar spirits. The key is not to try to get rid of the demons off the vehicle. The demons is to get rid of the vehicle. So they got nothing to ride on. That is what the curse is all about and breaking the curse. Now, I wanted to throw this in here just as I wanted it up online so people can see it. You say, well, what's our protection in all this? The blood, the redemption, we've been redeemed. Submission to God, resistance to the devil, submit to God, resist the devil. He has to flee. Our faith, whatever comes the world, our faith overcomes the world. Binding and loosing, which are the keys to the kingdom. The blood in our words overcame him. Specifically speaking of Satan, they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and their words, the words of their testimony. That word testimony is an interesting word. You should look it up sometime. It's more than just talking about what God did. It's saying this is what he did and this is what he'll do. So each vehicle or each curse can be handled a little differently. So let's go to the generational one first, because that's the one we started on. We spent most time looking at. If you recognize a generational curse, so let's start there. How do you recognize a generational curse? Because you've got to recognize it before you can renounce it and deal with whatever set it up for you. Generational curses are patterns and repetition in the generations. Now, they don't for instance, you can have a generational curse that came down from who knows what your parents, there's five kids in the family. That generational curse will not hit all five of them evenly. I don't know why this is just observation on my part. It will hit one and just slam them and might touch another one or two to where you can have five children and let's say the generational curse was cancer. And great granddad died of cancer and grandma died of cancer and mom struggling with cancer. Not all five of them are going to struggle with that. But if it's a pattern, generation to generation is just walking down the generations, it's going to hit one of these hard maybe two. And the rest will be scot-free. That's why you can have a family where you got five kids and you say, I don't understand why that one child is such a terror. Because the other four, the other three actually turned out okay and that one is just like, what in the world happened? That's probably the result of a generational thing that got on them never was recognized and it's just ripping their life apart. So you say, what do you do? Look back in the generation. Figure out if this is generational. Is there somebody in the previous generation who acted just like them? Is there somebody behind that who act just like them? Because this thing of its generational, it'll march down and it'll be a pattern. It'll repeat. Talking to one person. Grandma got pregnant when she was 16 years old outside of marriage. Mom got pregnant 16 years old outside of marriage. Daughter got pregnant. 16 years old outside of marriage. Guess what we're dealing with? We have a generational thing that's going on here that needs to be broken. You say, but we're innocent. Why are we under this flow? Here there's disagreement and you're going to have to make up your own mind. I've got it in my notes at some place, but we might as well talk about it right here. Some say when does a generational curse establish in a person's life? Now the guy who taught me said he believed it took place in the birth canal because the scripture specifically says the womb is a secret place hidden by God. And that's where he forms us. It's where he puts us together and it's a protected place. But once they start coming through the birth canal now they're out of the womb and his opinion was there immediately the generational curses will latch on to him and then as time goes on we'll try to develop and make things happen. Other people don't agree with that. They say no, a curse cannot land where there's no sin, there's no landing ground. That baby is innocent. So how can that curse establish in its life when it's innocent? We just read a couple of scriptures concerning that. So no, it can happen in the birth canal. It has to happen later. But for instance let's take the let's take the pregnant at 16 before you're married. What would let that curse come to rest on them? Oh, that can come to rest numerous ways. But somehow they have to get involved with sin to open the door. Okay, for instance I know of Christian families who've raised children who ended up one of not all of them. It never is the whole works. It's always one who's really troubled and another one is kind of like towing with it and the rest are all fine. Now, if you only have one they're probably going to get hit because there ain't much else to look at. But anyway, they've raised Christian family, the child becomes an adult and they end up in witchcraft. Literal witchcraft or demon worship. So the question is how in the world did that get on them? They never... All of a sudden a friend invited them and boom and this, that and the other and why did they even have a desire for it? Why was that set up even there? What happened? We got to remember some things. Jesus showed us this shown to us a couple places in the Old Testament. There's something that equals witchcraft in the Old Testament. What is it? Rebellion. So if there's a witchcraft curse in the lineage and when you get into really oh, how would you say the big things? There's usually some place in the past there's been witchcraft and sacrifices and everything for the lineage to get into this flow and for this flow to just dominate them. So if you get into that flow of witchcraft how did it establish in that person? All they had to do is rebel for a while. Because rebellion and witchcraft are equal. You say, well then they repented. I know and here's where how the guy taught me. He says and the problem is we don't recognize the thing now as a trespasser or a squatter. It doesn't have right to stay there but we're not enforcing it to leave. It's like anybody can move into your house and live there if you don't throw them out. Hang on to your questions. We'll get a shot. So you've got this person who for instance I gave you a scripture before now that I know this squatter trespasser thing this is how I approach this. Always James 4-7. James 4-7 is in everything when it comes to deliverance. But if we confess our sins he's faithful just to forgive us that cleans us up this way and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I will right behind that put so any curse demonic thing that tried to get on me you will leave now because I'm submitting myself or resubmitting myself to God and I'm resisting you. Leave me. It can be that simple. Now the power to be free is there. But if they're not exercising their authority and just simply just say no. We're not doing that. No. Even though they don't have the authority of the right they're like trespassers, like squatters. They're not trying to obey God's kingdom. They're trying to do their own thing. And they'll sit there. Doesn't happen all the time. But sometimes it does. And we don't recognize it and kick it off. And it still takes the person down. It's like the person is so tempted the person is always in a position where they're being offered this, whatever it is. Like for instance, the 16-year-old it seems like they're always having guys wanting to get in their pants. And their friend has no problem with it at all. But they any guy that looks at them wants to have sex with them. Why is that? Because there's a curse operating. And it's like a neon sign on their forehead that they don't see. But the spirit realm sees blinking . I'm available. Why do certain and you got to talk about this stuff in order to recognize it. So we're trying to learn how to recognize curses here now. Why is it you can have a beautiful or a beautiful woman or a handsome man that struggles to get a date when they're growing up. And you've got this fairly ordinary or even ugly girl or guy who's going out and having sex with everything that stands long enough to do it. Why can they get all these dates? And these two they're struggling. Because there's a curse operating here. And the attraction is not for the person. The thing that is attracting is the desire for sex. And the people that get attracted are and follow through on it are pulled into it have their own demonic problems. And the two attract. And it just pulls in. So, back to this generational thing. So now the girl was an adult and had a small child. And they said, grandma, mom, me. How do I keep my daughter from having this same thing happen? Well, number one you recognize that that's good. Because the previous three generations didn't or they didn't know what to do with it. Number two now you address it and say, no. This will not happen. Number three watch for the sin in the child's life that will draw her that way. Because she's going to have to make the choice and that sin is what's going to pull her there. Now, the generational curse, unless you obliterate it and get rid of it, is just kind of like hovering, like a cloud over her. And she's going to have a pull and a desire to be having sex with somebody. What's causing that? Is it low self-esteem? Is it wrong friends? Is it she got molested when she was little and now her whole body and mind is messed up? What is it that's pulling her here? That is what you have to kill. That's the vehicle. Because you let that vehicle run. It will get her in under this wrong flow. And she'll end up with the same thing. So number one, you recognize it. Number two, you address the curse and say, no. And we'll talk about how to do that here just a little bit. You renounce the sin of the ancestors. Say, no. Number three, you're looking for the ground, the sin, the power of sin that draws her over to that crowd. And you have to nip that. And you keep your eye on her continually. For her sake. And she's probably going to be angry about it. There's just certain places I'm not going to let you sleep over. They're not safe. How can you judge my friends? You know, they get all upset. Sorry, honey. I'm seeing a bigger picture here. I'll try to explain it to you. Try to show it to you. But your friend, for instance, has she had sex? Well, yeah. That's why you're not going to sleep there. Yeah. You don't trust me. Here was Mary's favorite response to that. It's not that I don't trust you. I don't trust the devil. I know where he's trying to take you. And you can be standing there. I won't do it. I won't do it. I won't do it. You already have a weakness for it. We're going to work together to beat this. And you end that generational curse. You renounce the sins of the ancestors and your own personal sin that is letting that generational thing establish. And this is going to show up over and over and over and over just for the sake of repetition. Cut it off from you. This is done with your mouth. The power is in the mouth. Cut it off from you and declare it as no power over you because of the authority you stand in. I use this for everything. It's just kind of a pattern the Lord showed me that works for me. You might establish your own. That's okay. This is the one that works for me. If I'm dealing with I was dealing with a curse with someone just last week. And when we addressed it right away the critters riding in the vehicle the curses the vehicle the critters riding in the vehicle wanted to manifest. And right away they're trying to come up and I told the person I said fight that I don't want to talk to them. I don't need to talk to them. They got nothing of value to me. Don't let them come up. You work with me. I'll forbid them, but you have to work with me to restrain it. Well they were trying to come up. So here we are. So I just pulled a chair around front of the person and I sat down and I said I'm not talking to you. I'm talking to them and the curse. The flow that has established that you're under right now. We're going to break this. So I just announced who I am. I am not coming to you in my power. I have no power over you. I'm coming to you in the name of Jesus. And it's through his blood that I am standing here or sitting here or going to do this. My authority is in the covenant. I have a covenant with my Father through the blood of Jesus and his name has been given to me to tap the authority of that covenant. I'll just explain it to him. This is where it's going. As I was going down. So through the word of my mouth I have the power to create. I will cast you out. And this curse will break right here. We submit and I led the person in a prayer submitting themselves to God, resisting the devil and demanding this ancestral thing be off of them and their children, their lineage. So it doesn't get off of them and jump because it will try. Off of me and all my children, my lineage, off, off we do all this work with our mouth and our faith. And so then I announce to him. And this is a subject that's already been asked that we deal with. So we'll deal with it later. So then I'll announce to the and this thing is just wanting to come up and it's just it's doing its thing but it's not being allowed to just fully manifest. So I just announced it. I said we can do this the hard way. We can do this the easy way but either way you're going. And the whole kingdom. I'll bind the whole kingdom together because rarely you have one. And the ones that are coming up are not the strong man. They're shoving the minions out in front to distract you and get you off track and you cast the minions out and the strong man is still sitting there. So part of the binding, which that comes up later in my slides, part of binding them is what did Jesus say? If you're going to take the house, you got to take the strong man of the house. You just call that out. You don't need to know their name. Could be destruction. Could be death. Could be anything. You don't need to know that. Only one time did Jesus need the name. So the bulk of the time, we don't need the name. If we ever need the name, he'll give it to us. But, so here it is. I'm talking to the strong men of every kingdom in this person. That's what I said. I am addressing the strong men of every kingdom in this person because rarely, going back to what Sabrina asked before, rarely do you have one kingdom operating by itself? Why is that? Because almost all of us have confessed our sin and God cleansed us and we went back in and we didn't occupy the house and it was swept and garnished and something came back in and they bring in others to fortify their position. It's rare that I run into a person with just a spirit of lying. There's going to be other kingdoms supporting that. So you don't have to know what they are. You just call them out. All the strong men of all the kingdoms I bind you. Which means I am now stating what's going to happen to you. Bind means I forbid you from continuing to operate. We cut this generational sin off back into the heritage and we refuse it from going forward. We bind you and you will leave because your authority and power now the reason they are there is they are riding the vehicle. We are going to get rid of the vehicle. So they are going with the vehicle. Once we cut the curse off I don't care what the ancestors did I renounce it. It's not me. I refuse it. I am under the blood. I renounce it. So now the vehicle their source of power is the generations. Well you just cut that like a cord. You just cut that free. They are standing here alone powerless now. Cut that free. Well they have got to go with the vehicle. The vehicle is the kingdoms. The kingdoms set up according to the curse. If you have got someone dying of cancer you probably have a kingdom of death destruction, could be infirmity could be wasting. Wasting disease. You don't need to know them all. They will set up around the problem. And there is gazillions of different ways they do that. Don't need to know. I bind you. I forbid you from operating. You will leave with this curse having been broken. And we can do this the hard way or the easy way. The easy way is you are going to leave and once you are out reconcile with the father. The hard way is I am going to cast you in the pit. But either way you are leaving now. So make up your mind. And in the name of Jesus I command you to go now and then release your faith. This isn't a head word thing. This flows out of our spirit. And this is something we need to learn to do. Is release. Oral Roberts talked about it a lot. Kenneth Hagan talked about it a lot. Kenneth Hagan said I will go down a prayer line and I will release my faith. And when it goes in I will go to the next one. I don't need to stay any longer. Because I released it, it is in there. He said sometimes I release it, it goes in and comes back out. Well now they are not going to get anything. I will just go on. What does it mean to release your faith? Faith is a substance. King James says. And it is literally a substance. You can feel it. And you release it. In other words I impart into them what is inside of me. In the name of Jesus Go. Go. With that Go is not just a word. It is a releasing of everything I believe. Go. And my spirit just by the Holy Spirit just bursts forth. And the Holy Spirit drives them out. And a subject. And when they get stubborn and they don't want to go right away I had I learned this late. Learned a lot of things late. Rather than just commanding and commanding because then your thoughts are going to start going Oh, what if it doesn't leave? Oh, you are coming out of faith. It has to leave. There is no choice. It has to leave. If we have led up to it confess this in broken everything it has to leave. You say what if you don't know what consent to confess then that's what you say. Lord, I don't know what I did to get into this. But whatever I did to open this door forgive me. And I put it under the blood and just talk to me about it later. Show me. I'll make the corrections. I'll change. I'll obey. Whatever it is. It's all you need. It's just like cutting a cord. They have no more power to hang on to. You've just taken it all away. Now you have to tell them to go because if you don't they're like squatters. They're like trespassers. Well, we prayed and we we said we're forgiven. Yeah, and they're all sitting there just waiting for the opportunity to drag that person back in. Kick them out. Kick the kingdoms out. Get rid of them. And it's just that simple. And if if you will announce who you are and your authority why do you have the right to do this? Kick that spirit out. Kick that thousand spirits out. Break that kingdom structure. Why do you have the right to do it? That's what you speak. That's what you shift into gear. And when you say go you're releasing the power from within you. Go. This isn't how loud you can scream or anything. It's just go. And sometimes I'll just breathe. If they're struggling to leave just right from here I said go. And it's amazing. It's just like they just wither away. It's that easy. It never was meant to be hard. Now that works for me. Just laying it out. Here's who I am. Here's what I'm here for. Here's what we're doing. Here's how it will end. So here we go. Get out. Let me see what I got next here. Okay, we talked about that. I found that doing it that way works. Deal with the generational curse as a sin. Separate yourself from it. Verbally cut it off from you. I resist this. I refuse this. James 4-7 goes with everything. I submit to God. Whatever this is that God set up it no longer is going to live with me or in me. I submit myself to God. I resist this. I command it to leave me. And hit it from that direction and it has to go. So let's talk a little bit more about generational curses and then we'll go for questions and answers. Mary was fighting a generational curse that had established in her side and it's her story, but I'm going to share just a bit of it. Her grandma died at age 55. Her uncle died at age 55. And there was some kind of critter that was going to take her out. He kept telling her at 55, you're dead. I am killing you. Well don't take a genius figure out this is a generational curse. So we did just that. We broke it, we whatever and I won't share the whole story. She had to come to grips with I have to stand against this. That whole 55th year was a whole year of I'm fighting the fight of faith because it seemed to cycle. I don't know why it worked that way because we doubt with it. We doubt with it as a generational thing got rid of it and she'd be good for a month or two and usually in the middle of the night she'd get up, go to the bathroom or something and there stands something leaning against the door whatever. She can see the outline, see the figure I will kill you you will not see your 56th birthday. What do you do with that? It's trying to pull you back under that generational curse and let it reestablish. You broke it you cut yourself off from it. It's trying to pull you back under. Remember the pastor of the big Korean church Cho Yep He said he learned the value of the spoken word and faith one night when the devil came to kill him. He said the devil came stood at the foot of his bed. He said I woke up I could feel this horrible presence. I woke up I think he said I sat up and I was looking. He said I saw him as clear as I saw a person. He was standing there and this is what Satan himself said. Of course Cho was worth Satan's time because it was a humongous church. He wanted this guy out of the way. And he said this is what he said to me. He said now I have you. You are mine. I am going to kill you. What was he doing? What was Satan doing? And what principle was he following? What was he doing? He was calling it by faith over Cho and had Cho submitted to it. Oh he is here to kill me. I see him. And God fearful? He had been dead. The fear would open the door. He called it. Satan called it like it was already done. Now I have you. It is already done. What did I do? Do not go there. It is fear. So he said what he did. He looked at him and said Oh, it is you. I am going to bed. He said I laid down, rolled over and went to sleep. He didn't even tell him to get out. I am not going to give you the attention of the next minute. You can't touch me. So the concept of so here they are leaning against the door. Sometimes she would walk up to him. I know what you are here for. You have no right. You have no authority. Get out. Be gone. Other times Oh, I am going to bed. She just walked past him and go to bed. I am not even going to give you the attention of answering your question or your statement. Because they always call it by faith. Because that is what works. I will kill you. You will not reach your 56th birthday. What are they doing? They are calling it by faith. Because everything in God's kingdom operates by faith. Three remain. There is a lot of stuff that will pass away at the new heaven and earth. But three remain. What are they? Faith, hope and love. And faith doesn't operate without hope. See, so even before the fall, God was operating by faith. It is how he creates. How he does everything. He just... So it is the principle of how the entire system works. The kingdom of darkness knows that. So they will tell you you are dying. You have a disease. It is killing you. Recognize it for what it is. They are calling it by faith. Hoping you bite the hook. Don't bite the hook. I will not. No, I do not have a disease. Depending upon what the Holy Spirit leads you to do, you deal with it. But you never bite the hook. Because they are calling things that are not as though they were. The same way we do, they do. Because that is the only way the system works. They are just doing it on the evil side. And it is all across the board. You know, you see someone that hurt your feelings or did something bad to you or whatever. And the thought will go through your mind. You hate them. It is never a question of do you hate them? What do you think about them? No, it is you hate them. Where did that come from? It might be inside. It might be outside. It makes no difference. They are calling something over you by faith. All you have to do is say, Yes, I do. I hate them. You just kicked the door open. And you just stepped right here. And I will guarantee you you just picked up some demons. You want to grab another one up there? My battery must have went dead. They don't ask you to make a decision. They say something to you by faith, wanting you to grab it and agree with it. And when you align, and it doesn't take much to align, when you align with that side, now you are open. And usually nothing bad happens right away. Because we would be smart enough to go, You know what? I just said I hated that person and this car crossed the lane and ran right into me. I will bet you it is because... Oh no, they are not... No. They are going to let you get by with it for a while. They are in. The door is open. They will start creating havoc later when you can't think what did I do to open myself to this? You can't remember. It might be weeks ago. It's like, I didn't do anything. Oh, yes you did. You just don't remember it. You just don't remember it. To say, does a generational curse just grab a person and I don't go with the side that it grabs you in the infancy of a baby? And now you are stuck with it and it is on you. Somehow we did something to open ourselves to it. Jesus compared murder with what? He said they are equal. He said it says thou shalt not kill, but I say unto you hate. Hate and murder are the same in the spirit realm. So you can literally pick up a spirit of death which is murder. It's going to try killing you. You can pick up a spirit of death by hating somebody. Well, it has been through the generations. I mean, every generation it seems like somebody in my ancestry killed somebody and all you have to do is hate somebody to establish that generational flow. You don't have to murder somebody. You just need to hate somebody because Jesus made them equal. So there is a number of things in Scripture where it compares things and makes them equal. And that's how in my understanding we get under a generational curse is because we opened a door in a way that to us wasn't related at all, but it was. And then we didn't recognize it. We didn't deal with it. And it just went downhill from there. Okay, any questions? We're coming to the end of our time. One came online. What is it? I'll let you read it. Did you turn it on in the end of the did you? Okay. Hello? If it is a generational curse do I need to bring my mother and family together to pray it off if we are all in agreement? You don't you don't remember I got this you don't need to if you're all in agreement you can but you don't need to. They can pray it off of them and you can pray it off of you you don't you know whoever you are I'm talking to you you don't need to you can but you don't have to you don't have to have agreement or disagreement from your ancestors makes no difference you're separating yourself from them when you do this let me back up number two So that's how you're separating yourself from them. When you renounce the sins of the ancestors, I am separating myself from them. I am not like them. I don't want what they did. And I will use the word, I cut that away from me. I sever that. And I picture it in my mind like just cutting a rope. I cut that away from me. This is no longer attached to me. So you can do that together as a group. You can do it individually. Doesn't make any difference as far as I know. Okay, next question. You had said that when you bind the strong man, you can go out the easy way or the hard way. What does it mean reconcile with the father or go to the pit? Okay, so we're going to deal with this in the future. I'll just say this much now. Now when Jesus was dealing, let's deal with the pit part first. When Jesus was dealing with the legion, they begged him not to cast him into different versions, say different things. The amplified says the pit. I believe Young's literal translation says the pit. It's a place of holding for the spirits until their judgment. They begged him, don't cast this into the deep is what I think the King James says. And Jesus had mercy on him and let him go into the pigs. The pit is a place of holding where they can no longer operate on earth and they absolutely want nothing to do with it. So in a roundabout way, I'm trying to inspire them to do something right here because that's where you're going if you don't do something right. Okay, so now right. I'm going to show, I had an experience, which I can't go into it now. It's too late. I had an experience where a spirit that was working in someone, well, they were working with them, but they just showed up and they asked to help, have me help them get back to the Father. Long story short, I didn't believe a word of it, but I let him in the sinner's prayer because I didn't think it could happen. It's just like, nah, it's any possible. But because this is what clinched it, I have to share a little bit of it because now I got your curiosity up. I said, they said, help me get back to the Father. And I said, I can't. I said, it's too late for you. You're doomed. And they said this. They said, are you saying the Father can't take me back? Or he refuses to? He won't. Which one is it? And that was like shoving a knife in my heart because I'm going, he can't. Well, I don't know if I can say that, that the Father couldn't. And he won't. Why know the Father? The Father is very redemptive. That is who he is. So I said, well, I don't know if I can say either one. So I'll pray with you. And I said right out, but I don't expect a thing to happen. But I knew the words. It wasn't my faith. It was what they had to do. And I let them in a prayer and everything changed. I'll share that story at a different time. So then I had to find scripture on it. Because if this is God, this has to be in scripture someplace. And I found a whole bunch of it. So I now, since then, and if I get to heaven and God looks at me and says, you know, none of them ever, ever reconciled with me. It was that, that couldn't happen. It's like, well, all right, I tried. But ever since then, I will, I will always offer reconciliation. The Father will take you back through the blood of Jesus Christ, because his word says so. And if they don't believe me, I'll take them to the scriptures and I'll show them. Here is what it says about you. Most of them, from my experience, most of them hate it. They hate it. They want nothing to do with the Father. Yeah, I've got a recent story about that, but I'm not going to share it tonight. It was the person I was dealing with just the other week on breaking a curse. I'll share that story a different night. Most of them just absolutely despise the Father. But some take you up on it. That's what I meant by that. And we will share that in detail. I did it in a message. I'd have to find where it's at. I don't remember where it's at. It's back ways. Yeah, I did it in a message, explained the whole thing and how it happened. And you got me going on something now. Because, you know, there's a thousand questions tied to this. So let me answer that particular one. Why would you speak it in a message? Well, I'm old enough now I don't care anymore. That's one of the reasons. Because when I was younger, I would have never touched that with a 10-foot pole because people are going to think you're nuts. And some do. It's like, well, whatever. That ain't my issue. Let me find this scripture here. The one I'm looking for. Ephesians 3. Are you able to bring a scripture up on the board? I've got New King James here. Could do that. Maybe I should go Amplified. That's a little more wordy. Let's go with, we can do New King James or we can do NIV. The Amplified gets so wordy. Sometimes you get lost in what he's saying when you read it. Let's go NIV. It's very simple. It covers this well. So NIV chapter 3 of Ephesians. Let's jump in. Paul is talking about being a servant of the gospel. And I'm least of all God's people. Verse number 8. This grace was given to me to preach you the Gentiles, the unsearchable riches of Christ. Verse 9. We'll start there. And to make plain to everyone, the administration of this mystery, which for ages past, was kept hidden in God, who created all things. Okay, so now he switched from just humans. Notice that? He created all things. Every living being God created. Verse 10. His intent was that now through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms. According to his eternal purpose, which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. What was the eternal purpose? If you reduce what Jesus did, he did a lot of things, but you reduce it down to one thing. What did Jesus come to do? Save us. Can we go with save us? And, of course, that spreads out into a bunch of things. Jesus came to save us. That was the eternal purpose of God, to redeem, to buy back, to save us, to bring us back. He accomplished that. Now, read verse 10. Take your religious classes off. Read this verse. His intent was that right now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to who? End of verse 9. All created things which includes the rulers and authorities. Not human rulers and authorities. The ones in the heavenly realms. Well, who are we talking about? This is the same Paul that wrote Ephesians 6 that says our struggle is not against flesh and blood. It's against rulers and authorities in high places. So therefore, we've got to have on the armor of God. Well, he's talking about them right here. He's talking about the demonic realm. Now, he could be talking about the angelic realm, you know, the ones who did not fall. I don't know if they need to be convinced that God is wise. Right there it says. His intent was that through the church the manifold wisdom of God should be made known. You think Michael needs to be convinced the father's wise? Or Gabriel or any of those? It's like, yeah, church, convince me that this one I'm serving is wise. No, they're convinced. I don't think they need much convincing. Do you know who needs the convincing? Are the ones that hate them? They need to be convinced of the eternal purpose which was accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. So here's my question to you. Why would God want to convince a spirit that he is wise and Jesus bought salvation? Why would he want them convinced of that if it's not available for them? That is a mean God. Okay, so now we're in, so we got to go a little deeper. Go to Colossians chapter one on the screen if you would, or if you got your Bibles, you can go there too. Colossians one, we're going to jump in at verse 15. Because see, I read that. I wasn't the first one to see it. I had a friend who was with me when this happened with this one spirit. And he was thinking we're often to deep heresy here. And so he went after studying the scriptures. He said, it's got to be, if this is God, it's got to be in the scriptures. And he saw it first and he brought it to me. Then I saw this one. Colossians chapter one verse 15. He is the image, the invisible God, the first born over all creation. So here again, we're beyond men now. We're into all creation. For by him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by him and for him. So that covers it all, right? That covers spirits, that covers fallen angels, that covers real angels, or I guess they're all real called nonfall, covers nonfallen angels, what it covers all creation. Just like he said, the end of verse 15 verse 17. He is before all things and in him all things hold together. So even the invisible realm holds together by him, because he just listed them and now he says all things hold together through Christ. And he is the head of the body, the church, and he is the beginning and the first born from among the dead. So that in everything, he might have supremacy. He's going to be supreme over everything he created. Period. And the reasons are verse 18, he listed them. Verse 19, for God, this is the Father, was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, dwell in who, dwell in Christ. So all the fullness of the Father dwells in Christ. And through him, Christ, to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood shed on the cross. It flat out says it. Verse 23, this is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven. Why would you proclaim it to him? Because verse 20, through him to reconcile to himself all things. So that's the word I use. You'd be reconciled with the Father, you're going to the pit, whether things on earth or things in heaven. Again, does Gabriel need reconciling to the Father? No. It has to be talking about the fallen spiritual realm. So I came to this conclusion. If I get to heaven and find out I'm wrong, then I guess I thought God was bigger than he is. But I came to this conclusion. I believed the blood of Jesus covered more than just the human race. And the grace of God is sufficient to all his creation, if it'll be received. That'll make you lay in bed staring at the ceiling tonight gone. What a world! So anyway, I'll give the story a different time. Any more questions? We ran late last week. It looks like we're going to do it tonight, too. Thank you. Now I have three. You had more than you had before, don't you? So starting going backwards here. So when you are going through deliverance with a person and you say you always now give that opportunity, so you're going to have to do that before you cast them out. Where in the process do you do that? The way I do it is it's kind of an agreement I made with God. And I had peace on it, so I think he agrees to it. Once they're out, they will be offered the choice before they're ushered to the pet. So in other words, once they're out of the person, you will be offered reconciliation. So whatever angels the Holy Spirit, whatever is there, is going to look at them and say, do you want to reconcile with the Father or not? Because they don't need me to reconcile. So they need me as part of the church to show them they can. That is why I am getting more bold on it now and I even spoke a message because I wasn't speaking it just to the people. I'm speaking it to the spirit realm who is watching the church to see if God is wise or not. And God is wise. He knew what he was doing far beyond what we can imagine. So my agreement with God is when they get out they're going to be offered reconciliation and then they can choose. And in that is a whole little thing that we won't get into tonight. But sometimes I do it myself, but not very often. It's usually once you're out, you're going to be offered and if you refuse it, you're going to the pit in the story. And that's how I'll cast them out. I just stated what will happen. So if they refuse it, they're ushered to the pit. So you're not necessarily going through the motions. All right. And then with the generational curses and like the vehicle, you knowing what that vehicle is, is it possible to just break off any generational curses without having knowing what they are? Yes, absolutely. And this is something I wish I could go back. I've been in the ministry now over 40 years. I wish I could go back 40 years. And every wedding I would perform, every child dedication I would do, I would lead the couple in breaking off the generational stuff from each side. Just name it as a blanket. And if something slips through, well, it's going to be, we'll deal with that later. It's minor. But just hit the whole thing. We are becoming our new entity in Christ. And any generational curse, though, we want all the blessings. But the curses, we just refuse them. We renounce them. We want nothing to do with them. We kick them off us as a newly formed entity in Christ. The two shall become one. And we're going to be one without any curse touching us. I wish I could go back and help a lot of married people. I would do that. And I never thought of the dedication thing. But Brother Caseman brought that up. Were you there at the family reunion when he said that this just struck me? It's like, because knowing about generational curses and stuff, this just like, wow, that makes sense. He said when Martin Luther would, they would baptize or whatever, they take a child and they deal with it as a baby. That moment was for the purpose of not just dedicating him to God. It was for the purpose of breaking generational curses. So that even though the child hasn't done anything yet, that's all right, we're going to get rid of this before you had the chance to do anything. And he said that and I thought, wow, that makes a lot of sense. So if I could go back and start over, I'd do it in both cases. Now I do it. I'll do it in both cases. But too late in some cases. Alright, last one. In dealing with the curses coming down and say you have a child, like you said, you can see sometimes early, early on that this one's got issues. How you can't, how do you deal with them when they're young? Can you get in there with them with them when they're very young? If it's already manifesting? Absolutely. Anything's possible. All things are possible to them that believe. Okay, but then they don't have to be able to stand that off. No, because you're, they have no accountability at two, three years old. They're just old enough to start recognizing yes and no and they're choosing no, you know, kind of thing. But you can see, like a lot of times in the little kid, you can see a violent temper and their brother and their sister are like, and this one is like, they're ready to kill you if you look at him cross-eyed. Why would that be there? What is trying to settle here? What is trying to happen? Now they've proven some stuff can go through the DNA and they've got a weakness towards it. So I would, now I would address that right away. I'd be asking the Holy Spirit, what is this? And until I, if I, if I never get anything specific or if I do, then I'll address specific. Otherwise, I'd just address it and say whatever this is, we're getting rid of you and I'd go after it and I'd get it off of them. If you're not the parent, are you, can you still do that? I don't know. That one's up for debate. And here's why. There's a few things in the Old Testament. The Old Testament gives us some insight. The New Testament doesn't on some of this stuff. When you had Joseph's sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, I believe it was, when it came time to deal with them, who claimed them as his own? Grandpa, Jacob, remember? So there, now Joseph had agreed to it, I guess, but there a grandparent took the right of calling what would be in those, those sons. Levi is credited with the blessing of tithing in Abraham. You have to look it up. It's like, that's interesting. So what Abraham did, it was part of the blessing, what Abraham did in tithing to the king of Salem, Melchizedek. The blessing of that was going down through the generations, this is, we're guessing 500 years later, was going down through the generations and the sons of Levi, who were the priests, were credited with the tithe that Abraham gave. And it says that they didn't use the word tithe that says, they gave when they were in the loins of Abraham. I believe is how the King James reads it. If you look up the word loins, you'll find it. It's in the New Testament, it's not the Old Testament, it's in New Testament. Loins is the King James word. The grandparent has rights, but they're limited unless the parent agrees is my understanding. And like I said, I don't know everything. But from my understanding, if the parent agrees, the grandparent has rights because we're in that lineage of blessing. If the parent refuses the grandparent's rights, then we're in trouble because they're spiritually cutting us out, what they're doing. And they're not letting it flow down. They're saying no to it and they have the right to say no to it. But here's Reimat, go for it. Pray, take authority, speak into that little life, just go for it. And if it doesn't get very far, well whatever. But if you had the opportunity for it to get a long ways and you didn't say anything or pray or speak anything, well now you lost it all. So I just say go for it. And then hopefully the parent can get on board with you. That's my understanding, could be wrong. In other words, that's around a lot of people disagree. How much right do I have over my grandchildren? Some point to a couple of things I just pointed out. And they say, you've got as much right as the parent. And then others say, oh no, no, no, no, you can't do that. But was that the, that was the time where Jacob crossed his hands to bless him. And Joseph pulled the hands apart. He said, no, you got the wrong one. He said, no, I got it the way God wants it. And he recrossed his hands and he blessed them accordingly. And Joseph let it happen. I think that's a key there that Joseph let it happen. But good question. Any other questions? We're running out of time. Got one up front. So next week when we come back, we're going to try to fill in any holes on generational stuff. You're looking for patterns. You're looking for reoccurring things that happen down the generations. And it can be anything. It can be literally anything. Grandma and grandpa were poor. Mom and dad were poor. And now I can't get myself above financially to save my life. Probably curse. It's probably you're under that flow and you've got to get out from underneath it. You're going to have to address it and deal with it. It literally can be anything. Diabetes. Well diabetes is generational. Well, I'm sure it is. It might be generational physically, but I'm sure there's a vehicle there too. It can be anything. But what you're looking for in generational stuff is a pattern that repeats. And here's where we run into problems. Our parents don't share enough because either one or the other spouse swears them to silence or they're afraid that grandma and grandpa, their parents, are going to find out they're saying something and they're hiding the secrets that would give us the knowledge to see if this is generational or not. And every one of our ancestor lineages, everybody here, has a lot of junk in it. But we don't know about it. We know very little about it because it was kept a secret. Those secrets. What does Jesus say about that? Everything that is hidden will be brought into the light. Secrets that that keeping... Well, I'm trying to protect their honor. Skip their honor. Get over the pride thing. Well, we come from an honorable heritage. Garbage. You come from crap like the rest of us. Garbage. Let's find out what we're dealing with so we can stop it. Rather than why I have no idea if anybody in the ancestors had problems with this or not. I don't know. Nobody ever talked about it. That's the problem. But there isn't any, you know, there isn't any lineage that is all holy and righteous. And oh, they're good back to Adam. Oh, yeah, I'm sure they are. They're direct descendants of Noah in the righteous way and they never sinned, you know. Right. We all have so much garbage in our heritage. That's why we find ourselves in these generational situations. And we got to recognize them. So you're looking for patterns, repetitive patterns. Go ahead. So I have a principal question that I'll just give an example for because I don't know how to word it. So for example, if a child was physically abused and that led to like a trauma response or a coping skill of lying, for example, obviously lying is a sin. The child grows up, knows it's a sin, working on it, renewing the mind, but they're still struggling with it through the process is every time that they lie, opening ground for sin or is repenting the only thing they need to do to close that off. Well, the first sin that I asked to be dealt with was they were abused. And that is a sin against them, but it's still a sin. And what happens typically for a small child that gets abused, isn't this just the weirdest thing? There's nothing to think about this. A small child that gets sexually abused is the first one as a teenager to act out sexually. You would think it'd be otherwise. You would think they'd hate it because this was a horrible experience. No, they're going to be the most promiscuous of the whole work of the whole works. Okay, so through that abuse, somehow something got on them. And now they're acting out what happened to them. That's a generational thing. If it's in the family, if it's not in the family, it's going to try to set up as a generational thing. So in my mind, the first thing we would deal with about dealing with that child is the abuse. We got to go back and separate ourselves from any spiritual things that got tied to us in that abuse. There are children that I've dealt with who hated it when... Well, I'll give you a really bad... it's a good example, but it's really bad. Grandpa used to sexually abuse his granddaughter, and when they were done, he would sit her on his lap and read the Bible to her. And it's like... You talk about massive child up. It's like, oh my goodness. Typically abusers are groomers. Groomers, the child hates the abuse. But they love the reward because that's how groomer works. I'll take something from you and then I'll give something to you to make you want me to take from you again. So I'll take sex from you and then I'll buy you things and you'll be my special little boy or girl and I'll take you places nobody else gets to go and you get your reward. The open door can be the child knows something's wrong but they like the reward. They're special and they get things nobody else gets in the family. That can be... we got to go back and ask forgiveness for that and close that. That can be how it came in and deal with the... and you got to follow the spirit and everything but deal with the sexual abuse, physical, verbal, whatever it was, deal with it and then you go to the lying because the lying is the after effect of the abuse. It came because of the abuse. It doesn't make it right but it's not the deepest root. Let's say it that way. The deepest root is going to be the abuse. Then you deal with the lying afterwards. Does that make any sense? Yeah, that's the simplest way I can explain that. And you do that by praying over them and you do the by explaining to them and you pray the Holy Spirit helps them to see and understand what they're doing and you know the whole thing. Anybody else got a question or anything before we're done? All right, I guess we're done. Yeah, we'll just pick up there next week and start taking it apart. See now it's real easy. Hopefully, it's really easy to see. Now that you see the two flows, it's real easy to see how it curses this flow and how demons work with the curse. They just... that's the car, that's the truck and they're all along for the ride. You got to get out of that car or truck and get in the blessing side if you want that to break. Just casting a demon out does not break a curse. It thins the crowd a little bit but doesn't break the curse. So hopefully that helped. But anyway, yes, thank you for the time you spent here. Be blessed. Have a safe trip home. So now what I just did, I blessed you. And we should be really good at that with each other. But we're not near as good as we should be. So be blessed. Be safe. Have an awesome trip home.
