Texts: Ephesians 2:1-2; Ezekiel 36:26-27
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Can you imagine how beautiful this world would have been if there were no curses? Right from the time of Adam till now, imagine a world without the pain that comes with curses. But we can put the question in another way- “Can you imagine how beautiful this world would have been if there were no acts of disobedience (which leads to curses)?”
In Genesis 4, when Cain killed his brother, Abel, he was cursed and he became a wanderer- a vagabond roaming the streets. How many such mad men do we have today suffering from the consequences of their evil actions? Imagine a world without acts that lead to such ugly situations.
Imagine a world in which there is no need for courts, judges, prisons or law enforcement agents- a world where everybody fears God, obey their conscience and does the right thing whether people are watching or not.
The Word of God makes us to understand that there is a spirit at work in the world which makes such reality impossible. This spirit is the spirit of disobedience which is sponsored by invisible satanic powers ruling the air. Ephesians 2:1-2. These are the real root causes of curses.
If we must have victory over curses, we must attack the spirit of disobedience from the roots. And ask the Lord for a new heart and a new spirit- the Spirit of Obedience; the Spirit Of Holiness- Ezekiel 36:26-27. Then shall we be truly blessed and live peaceful and fulfilling lives in Christ.
Prayer Nugget: Father, I uproot every stubborn and rebellious heart; and ask for a yielded heart of obedience in Jesus name.
