🌿 Breaking the Chains: Generational Curses and the Power of Repentance

🌿 Breaking the Chains: Generational Curses and the Power of Repentance

How Lies Passed Through Abraham's Line Reveal Generational Curses


How Lies Passed Through Abraham's Line Reveal Generational Curses

“Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us...” — Galatians 3:13
“And there shall be no more curse...” — Revelation 22:3

The Bible teaches that curses can pass through family lines due to the sins of our ancestors—this is what



we call generational curses. Though Jesus has made a way for us to be free, many believers still suffer under these inherited spiritual patterns because they have not dealt with them through repentance and spiritual warfare.

What Is a Generational Curse?

A generational curse is a recurring cycle of sin, oppression, disease, or tragedy passed down from one generation to the next due to the unrepentant sins of our forefathers. These spiritual issues may not be your fault, but they can become your bondage if left unaddressed. They act like familiar spirits moving from parent to child until someone finally says, “Enough.”

A Biblical Example: Abraham’s Family Line

Let’s examine the spiritual pattern of lying in Abraham’s lineage:

  • Abraham lied to Pharaoh, saying Sarah was his sister, fearing for his life (Genesis 12).

  • Abraham repeated the lie with King Abimelech (Genesis 20).

  • Isaac, his son, told the same lie to another King Abimelech about Rebekah (Genesis 26).

  • Rebekah, Isaac’s wife, later conspired with Jacob to deceive Isaac.

  • Jacob’s sons lied to him about Joseph’s fate, staging his death when he was actually sold into slavery (Genesis 37).

Do you see the pattern? Lying, fear, and deception passed through four generations—from Abraham all the way to Jacob’s sons. These weren’t isolated incidents. This was a generational curse.

Christ and the Curse of the Law

Jesus did not abolish the law—He fulfilled it (Matthew 5:17). Satan remains the executor of the curse when we break God’s laws. But through Jesus’ death on the cross, the curse no longer has legal authority over you if you repent and walk in obedience.

Obedience is the key to appropriating the freedom Jesus bought for you.

The Link Between Disease and Generational Sin

Have you noticed that doctors ask for your family medical history? That's because diseases tend to “run in families.” But the Bible reveals a deeper spiritual truth: many diseases are manifestations of generational curses—rooted in fear, trauma, bitterness, or sin.

Disease is not a blessing; it’s a shadow of Satan’s kingdom, not God's.
The solution isn’t just medical—it’s spiritual.

Deuteronomy 28 outlines the blessings of obedience and the curses of disobedience. Mental illness, autoimmune disorders, poverty, infertility, and emotional instability can all be symptoms of spiritual inheritance through generational sin.

Science Confirms What the Bible Teaches

Psychologists have found that patterns like rage, addiction, and mental disorders often appear in families even without a genetic link. These inherited tendencies align with what the Bible calls familiar spirits—spiritual entities that follow bloodlines and manifest through soul wounds and unrepented sin.

Breaking the Curse: What You Can Do

To break generational curses, follow the biblical pattern found in Nehemiah 9:1-2:

  1. Confess Your Sins and the Sins of Your Fathers
    Just like Israel did, acknowledge your sins and the iniquities of your ancestors back to Adam and Eve.

  2. Repent and Renounce
    Say aloud, “I renounce the sin of __ in my family line and break all agreements with it in Jesus’ name.”

  3. Cast Out the Spirit
    Use the authority Jesus gave you. Say, “Spirit of alcoholism (or lying, fear, etc.), I command you to leave in the name of Jesus.”

  4. Apply the Blood of Jesus
    “I cover this sin and curse with the Blood of Jesus. It is now washed away and powerless in my life.”

  5. Take Responsibility
    Read through Deuteronomy 27–28. Make a list of known family issues—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Take responsibility even if you didn’t start it.

  6. Do a Family Tree Chart
    List sins, diseases, or repeated tragedies in four generations. This helps you visually identify patterns and pray specifically.

If the flow is not stopped, it will continue through your children and grandchildren. But if you break it, freedom flows instead.

Final Charge: Restoration Through Repentance

God is calling His Church back to repentance—not just personal repentance but also intergenerational. We must help others recognize and break these strongholds through spiritual warfare and deliverance ministry.

Encourage your church and loved ones to identify, renounce, and remove generational curses. You may be the one God chooses to stop the flow of destruction in your bloodline and release healing for generations to come.

Proverbs 26:2 - As the bird by wondering...

A Curse Causeless Cannot Come - Proverbs 26:2


As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

Many times, as I have been in Deliverance Ministry for many years, deliverance ministers and participants believe demonic spirits have a right to them at any time. In fact, they have to have permission before the demonic world can have a right to you.

What Am I Saying Here?


Curses can only havemust an effect on your life when you personally commit a sin contrary to the Word of God. Only sin opens the door for the enemy to demonically bind you. Also, not every curse your ancestors have committed opens the door, but there are familiar spirits who will tempt you with the same sins as your ancestors so that you will open the door for a curse to come upon you. That means there is a bent or stronger temptation to open that door to that curse. The demonic spirits will then try to perpetuate the curse for all remaining generations of descendants.

Some sins of your ancestors do enter the child in the womb at conception. The child enters life with this characteristic, which is demonic - such as self-hatred, unknown fears, bent toward rejection, or shyness. The world would say that the child inherited this characteristic from his ancestors. What was inherited was a demonic spirit passed down through the bloodline.

How to Keep From Getting a Curse!


If you don’t want the evil spirits to have authority in your life, you have to make sure any curses on you have been broken through deliverance and repentance. A curse can't land on you unless it has a cause. Fear and sin are basically the two leading causes that take the blessings out of your life. Sin definitely does that! When God says in the Bible to do something, and you say, “Well, I don’t feel like doing it, I'm not going to do it,” you have left yourself open to sin, which results in getting cursed. God will not let Satan cause us harm unless we leave a legal opening. The devil is a “legal beagle” (a legalistic being), and if you leave a legal opening for him to hit you, he will surely use it. It would be illegal to curse you without a cause. God would smash his head right in, and the day will come for that!

Today's society and the church have come to the point where we have made sin so acceptable or the Word is So Watered down. Another way of putting it is that churches today have cheapened grace to mean no punishment for unrepented sin. We say we are sorry but the church or our society really does not repent. Repentance means to turn away and change our actions. True repentance and confession of sin will allow God to protect us completely.

I thought All Curses Went with Jesus?

I thought when Jesus died he took the curse! Let's look at Revelation 22, the closing chapter of the entire Bible speaks to this very question.

Revelation 22:3

And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall serve him: curses are still with us. What Jesus Christ accomplished on the cross was this: He gave every child of God the freedom to get out from under curses when we sin through repentance. You can see from Revelation 22:3, curses still exist and must be dealt with in the practical Christian walk. We are all going from Glory to Glory.

Lets look at Galatians 5:19-21

Galatians 5:19-23 (King James Version)

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

These are habitual sins where a christian chooses to follow their flesh over God's ways. When someone has a problem and continually repenting to God, then God's mercy is with us. He looks at the heart of a person. Unfortunately, our sins do open doors for the enemy to put curses on us, but through the blood through repentance does remove, and God gives us a strength through him to overcome. That is his promise to us.

The New Testament Bible Passages On Depending on God To Live a Victorious, Overcoming Life Promises from God

Mark 14:38
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.

Luke 10:19
I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.

Luke 22:40
On reaching the place, he said to them, "Pray that you will not fall into temptation."

Luke 22:46
"Why are you sleeping?" he asked them. "Get up and pray so you will not succumb to temptation."

John 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

Romans 12:21
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 2:10-11
If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.

2 Corinthians 2:14(NKJV)
Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ.

Galatians 5:16-17
So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want.

Ephesians 4:22-24
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Ephesians 4:26-27
"In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.

Ephesians 6:10-17
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

2 Thessalonians 3:3
But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.

2 Timothy 4:18
The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Hebrews 2:18
Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.

James 1:12-15
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

James 4:7-8
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

1 Peter 5:8-10
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

1 John 2:12-15
I write to you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name. I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, dear children, because you have known the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

1 John 3:8
He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work.

1 John 4:4
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

1 John 5:3-5
This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, 4for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

Revelation 3:21
To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.

Revelation 12:11
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, if a Christian goes through deliverance and really does not repent for their sins and goes and does the sin again and that can be unforgiveness, they will get worse according to Luke 11:20-26 - the demonic spirits will see if you are truly filled with truth.

Spiritual Strongholds

What are Spiritual Strongholds?


First of all, we need to realize there is an enemy, "satan," and his effort is to capture the minds of men and women and their souls through spiritual strongholds. The mind is the strong tower of the soul.

Under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, the mind rules our hearts and emotions and directs our lives. Satan knows if he can get hold of the way we think, he can expand his rule into every other area of our life.

Prov. 23:7 "for as he thinketh in his heart, so is he."

Satan wants to control your thoughts in the conscious mind but also your motives and thoughts in our subconscious minds.

II Corinthians 10:3-5 "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses/storngholds. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ."

What is a fortress/stronghold? It is a walled city with access to its water supply and plenty of storage space for food. The enemy attacks with warfare against fortresses. When trying to break into a fortress, the enemy will dig under walls, climb over walls, bust down the main door, or whatever to get entrance by hurling bounders against the walls and firebombs over the walls.

Paul uses this knowledge to describe the attack needed against the spiritual strongholds of the mind. We can destroy every stronghold because our weapons are eternal and invincible.

The enemy tries to break in with lying thoughts, negative thoughts from others, or feelings that have developed a life of their own within us. We were created in the image of God, but somehow we believe what others have said, what satan says, the accuser or ourselves believes the opposite of God, and that is what a stronghold is. It is a thought or belief that is not true about you, but you believe it.

An individual stronghold is more than a habit. It is a belief of fleshly control within us that uses habits to maintain control over us. Like for example, through belief or feeling, a habit of temper can develop to defend or cover up the insecurity or jealousy of wants, believing God does not want you to be blessed, or developing alcoholism to cover up the pain you are not loved. God's word says you are the apple of his eye.

These strongholds are the fortresses of thought, emotion, feeling, or negative belief about self or what God says about you.

The function of a stronghold is to put up smoke screens to keep things like sermons, teachings, and counseling from piercing our inner man with truths that could bring repentance and freedom.

A stronghold guards the untruths that bond us to self and the flesh. It keeps you from being able to renew the mind from seeing your own deceptions.

Strongholds give us tunnel vision, preventing us from seeing what common sense would tell us is wrong. It creates an inner captivity to deception and misery.

Again, the central core of strongholds are lies the enemy wants you to believe in, getting you to believe they are true about you.

God does not want your past to hold you back! God has made a way out, a way to unpack your bags of grief, pain, unforgiveness, guilt, shame, or even old patterns of relating.

Prescription Drugs - Third Cause of Death in America - this needs to move

Pharmakia is Prescription Drugs - The Third Cause of Death


The Greek word "pharmakia" literally means "drugs", and appears five times in the New Testament: in Gal 5:20, Rev 9:21, 18:23, 21:8, and 22:15. "Pharmakia" is translated into our English Bible as either "witchcraft" or "sorceries". We also get our English word "pharmacy" from the Greek "pharmakia".


In each of the above five passages, "pharmakia", or "drugs" is listed as a work of the flesh of man as opposed to the Spirit of God working in us.


For example, Gal 5:16-23 in the KJV:


16 "[This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft ("pharmakia" or drug use), hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance (self-control): against such there is no law."

The King James Bible translators translated "pharmakia" as "witchcraft" because almost no one but witches and sorcerers used drugs 400 years ago. Drugs were most commonly used in pagan worship to hallucinate and to try to get in touch with evil spirits.

Our medical world is a mess! Every year in the US, there are:

12,000 deaths from unnecessary surgeries;

7,000 deaths from medication errors in hospitals;

20,000 deaths from other errors in hospitals;

80,000 deaths from infections acquired in hospitals;

106,000 deaths from FDA-approved, correctly prescribed medicines.

The total of medically-caused deaths in the US every year is 225,000.

This makes the medical system the third leading cause of death in the US, behind heart disease and cancer.

Since the FDA approves every medical drug given to the American people and certifies it as safe and effective, how can that agency remain calm about the fact that these medicines are causing 106,000 deaths per year?

Do the 106,000 deaths from medical drugs only involve drugs prescribed to patients in hospitals, or does this statistic also cover people prescribed drugs who are not in-patients in hospitals?

The pharmaceutical giants stand back and carve the populace into “promising markets.” They seek new disease labels and new profits from more and more toxic drugs. They do whatever they can—legally or illegally—to influence doctors' prescribing habits. Some drug studies that cast new medicines in a negative light are buried. FDA panels are filled with doctors who have drug-company ties. Legislators are incessantly lobbied and supported with pharma campaign monies.


This can be serious stuff! In Rev. 21:8, God says that people who are continually characterized by drug use will have no part in the Kingdom of God.

I recommend learning to walk in the Spirit and studying the New Testament Epistles to the Churches (Romans to Jude).

As we grow in grace and the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we will want to do things that please God.

Look again at Gal 5:22 & 23, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering (patience), gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance (self-control)"

Isn't that what the whole world is looking for? It's automatic when we walk in the Spirit!

The Christian life is a "supernatural" life; we cannot please God in our energy. We can only please God by allowing Him to work THROUGH us.

I have to assume that you love Jesus and want to please him, or you wouldn't even be concerned.

The dangers of unbiblical "breathing exercises", mantra's, "centering"

SOME THOUGHTS on MYSTICISM


-by Eddie Hyatt.



In a recent church gathering, a well-known evangelical pastor led his congregation in a "breathing" exercise in which they were exhorted to take "nice, big, deep breaths." He explained that such breathing exercises, meditation, reflection, and silence have been central to the Christian tradition for thousands of years.


He then sought to buttress his argument by pointing out, "In Yoga, one of the central tenets is that your breath needs to remain the same regardless of pose. And the Yoga Masters say this is how you follow Jesus and surrender to God."



[i] Pastor Rob Bell is typical of many today looking to medieval mystics (and to Eastern forms of mysticism) in their search for spiritual reality. But while many medieval mystics can be admired for their passion and devotion, they cannot be followed in many of their doctrines and experiences.

They often exhibit a glaring lack of discernment and common sense because they are loyal to the medieval church and share in its lax (and sometimes hostile) attitude toward Scripture. So, while some of their experiences are, no doubt, genuine, many are obviously psychic, and some are probably demonic. Basically, these practices take you to an Altered State of Consciousness.

Commenting on medieval mysticism and its neglect of Scripture, Dr. Hans Kung, the most widely read Catholic theologian in the world today, says, These new revelations not only overshadowed the Bible and the Gospel but also Him whom the Gospel proclaims and to whom the Bible bears witness.


It is striking how rarely Christ appeared in all these "revelations," "apparitions," and "wonders." Catholics who followed in the wake of every new "revelation," which often turned out to be fantasy or deceit, indulged their desire for sensation by looking for the latest reports of miracles-and yet who had never once in their whole lives read the Scriptures from cover to cover.

[ii] The Origins of Mysticism Medieval mysticism arose in reaction to the lifeless, outward forms of the medieval church. During the same period, evangelical revival groups also emerged for similar reasons. But whereas the revival groups, such as the Waldenses and Albigneses, gave their loyalties to the Scriptures and looked there for models of faith and spirituality, the mystics tended to give allegiance to the pope and the institutional church.[iii] This meant that the mystics were more susceptible to non-Biblical approaches to spirituality, resulting in their adoption of many beliefs and practices rooted in pagan, mystical thought, particularly Neoplatonism.

Bastard's curse - What is it

What is a Bastard's Curse?

What is a Bastard's Curse?


A “bastard” in biblical terms refers to a child born out of wedlock, conceived outside the covenant of marriage. The term may sound harsh by modern standards, but in the biblical context, it represents more than just a social label; it carries a generational spiritual consequence that can affect individuals' emotional and spiritual lives for generations.

Scriptural Foundation

Deuteronomy 23:2 (KJV) says:

“A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the Lord.”

This sobering verse highlights a serious spiritual reality. Children born outside the sanctity of marriage are cut off from spiritual community and blessings unless the curse is broken. That separation can manifest emotionally, relationally, and spiritually without people knowing the root cause.

Spiritual Consequences of the Bastard Curse

In healing and deliverance ministry, we have found a recurring pattern: people born out of wedlock often carry deep-seated wounds and spiritual oppression. Common manifestations include:

  • Rejection

  • Abandonment

  • Fear and anxiety

  • Lust and perversion

  • Shame and guilt

  • Identity confusion

  • Feeling like they never fit in or belong

These are not just psychological patterns—they are spiritual strongholds. The curse opens the door for demonic spirits to enter at conception or during gestation. These spirits—of rejection, fear, shame, and more—often gain legal ground through this generational inequity.

Common Symptoms of the Bastard Curse

  1. Feelings of Rejection and Abandonment

    • A persistent sense of being unloved, unwanted, or “on the outside looking in.”

    • Difficulty receiving love, even from God or trusted people.

  2. Struggle with Identity and Belonging

    • Never feeling “good enough” to fit in—at church, in families, or in relationships.

    • A strong sense of being disconnected from purpose and destiny.

  3. Inability to Bond with Father Figures or Authority

    • Deep mistrust or rebellion toward parental or spiritual authority.

    • Difficulty connecting to God as a loving Father.

  4. Generational Patterns of Illegitimacy

    • Repeated patterns of out-of-wedlock births, divorce, and broken family structures.

    • A family history marked by instability, sexual sin, or abandonment.

  5. Religious Resistance and Spiritual Barrenness

    • Feeling spiritually dry, despite effort.

    • Lack of breakthrough in prayer, worship, or intimacy with God.

    • Feeling “orphaned” in the body of Christ.

  6. Self-Sabotage and Shame Cycles

    • Repeating destructive patterns, often driven by a subconscious belief that one is “cursed.”

    • Shame and guilt that linger even after repentance.

Children Know

Even young children somehow intuitively know if they were conceived in a covenant or out of lust. Children often ask questions like, “Were you married when I was born?” or look at wedding dates and compare them with their birthdates. When they discover there was no marriage or realize they were unwanted, it brings shame and self-rejection.

These wounds invite the enemy to whisper lies like:

  • “You were never wanted.”

  • “You don’t belong.”

  • “You’ll never be enough.”

Such lies shape identities and behaviors. The person may crave love but seek it in unhealthy, ungodly ways, often repeating the cycle by conceiving children outside of marriage themselves.

The Generational Nature of the Curse

Deuteronomy 23:2 says the curse can last up to ten generations. That’s a long time. Many people are walking in spiritual bondage today because of an ancestor’s sin. The enemy uses these doorways to keep families in cycles of brokenness, shame, and rebellion against God.

Breaking the Curse Through Christ

If this resonates with your life, there is hope in Jesus Christ. The curse is real, but the power of the cross is greater.

Galatians 3:13 says:

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us...”

When Jesus died on the cross, He made it possible for every curse—including the bastard curse—to be broken. Here’s how you can begin to walk in freedom:

  1. Forgive Your Parents – Even if you don’t know the full story, choose to forgive your mother and father for conceiving you outside of marriage. Release them from the debt you feel they owe you.

  2. Renounce the Curse – Speak aloud in the name of Jesus that you break and renounce the bastard curse and all spirits associated with it.

  3. Cast Out Associated Spirits – In Christ’s authority, command the spirits of rejection, abandonment, fear, shame, lust, and others to leave you.

  4. Receive Your Identity as a Child of God – If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, you are a beloved son or daughter of God. You are not illegitimate in His eyes.

Romans 8:15 says:

“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.”

  1. Ask for the Father’s Blessing – Whether your earthly father is living or not, ask your Heavenly Father to bless you and fill that parental void. If possible, ask your earthly father or mother for a spoken blessing. Words carry power.

  2. Teach Your Children – If you have children born out of wedlock, ask their forgiveness for opening that door. Break the curse off them in the name of Jesus. Speak blessings over them. Begin teaching them the ways of the Lord to protect them from repeating the cycle.

The Power of Confession and Repentance

There is always hope when there is repentance. If you are the parent, confess your sins before God, repent, and break the curse on your child. If you are the child, forgive and release your parents and step into your full inheritance in Christ.

The Power of Deliverance Ministry of Breaking the Bastard Curse

Deliverance ministry is a biblical, Christ-centered process that helps people identify and break ungodly spiritual attachments, curses, and demonic influences. The bastard curse, while spiritually rooted, can be broken through repentance, renunciation, and spiritual authority in Jesus' name.

1. Breaking Legal Ground

Deliverance exposes and closes the spiritual doors opened through generational sins or past trauma. Through repentance for the sins of the forefathers (Nehemiah 1:6) and breaking agreement with illegitimacy, legal ground is removed from the enemy.

2. Healing Rejection and Identity

Jesus came to restore the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18). In deliverance, the Holy Spirit begins to rebuild your identity as a legitimate child of God—fully accepted, loved, and chosen.

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God...” (John 1:12)

3. Restoration of Intimacy with the Father

Once the curse is broken, many people report a new ability to connect with God, feel His presence, and receive His love as “Abba Father.” The Spirit of adoption replaces the orphan spirit (Romans 8:15).

4. Freedom for Future Generations

Deliverance doesn’t just bring freedom to the individual—it stops the cycle of illegitimacy in the family line. Your obedience and healing today become a blessing for your children and grandchildren.

What are Inner Vows

What are Inner Vows is like Bitterness and Judgment

Below is a prayer to break inner vows


Inner vows are like declaration or promises we make about ourselves. Inner vows will come to pass. 

Inner vows represent us choosing our will over God’s and need to be revoked before we can experience the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

Satan will make sure the words you spoke over yourself will come to pass. Inner vows that they happen. 

Have you ever said: "I will never let a man (or woman) ever hurt me again?" Or "I will never put myself in that position again." "I can't trust anybody." "Nobody can do it right but me." "I will never be like my mother (or father).""I will never be like that." "I will never share what I really feel, it is not safe." Many men say this about their mothers, which then transfers to their wives. "Men (women) never do it right." "Don't share," etc. Proverbs teaches us that as we think in our hearts, so we become (Proverbs 23:7a). If we make these "vows," or statements, 

Many of these vows were said as children, yet they affect our adult lives. If you have ever made such statements, it is time to go before the Lord and repent and break the power of the curse on your life.
The following is a list of typical inner vows:


· I don't matter.

Inner vows must be revoked

Breaking Inner Vows


  • Ask yourself, “Have I made any inner vows?” What were they? Write down your inner vow list. Ask the Lord to help you. 
  • Examine who was involved in the life that led you to make an inner vow, directly and indirectly:
  • Sometimes we make inner vows because of hurts like broken promises, betrayals, etc. Make a list of people who hurt you and if you made any vows. Then, take the time to forgive them.
  • Repent for making the inner vow and not trusting God in the situation. Say this prayer! “Lord, I now recognize that I have made an inner vow that reveals a lack of trust in your willingness to help and protect me and those that I love. I ask that you would forgive me. I want to transfer that need to feel helped and protected onto you, and I humbly ask that you would do just that; help and protect myself and those that I love. I renounce the inner vow that said, “___________________________. Please break the power of this vow over my life and help me to set wise goals that are in agreement with your plans and purposes for me. I also ask that you would heal any wounding in my heart that came as a result of the event that caused me to make this inner vow. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Former Witch Exposes Harry Potter




Former Witch Exposes Harry Potter

by Pastor David J. Meyer

Website: https://www.touchofgod.org
Join us for Prayer and Intercession

What Does God Have To Say?
I am writing this urgent message because I was once a witch. I lived by the stars as an astrologer and numerologist casting horoscopes and spells. I lived in the mysterious and shadowy realm of the occult. By means of spells and magic, I was able to invoke the powers of the "controlling unknown" and fly upon the night winds transcending the astral plane. Halloween was my favorite time of the year and I was intrigued and absorbed in the realm of Wiccan witchcraft. All of this was happening in the decade of the 1960s when witchcraft was just starting to come out of the broom closet.

It was during that decade of the 1960s, in the year 1966, that a woman named J. K. Rowling was born. This is the woman who has capti! voted the world in the year 2000 with four books known as the "Harry Potter Series." These books are orientational and instructional manuals of witchcraft woven into the format of entertainment. These four books by J. K. Rowling teach witchcraft! I know this because I was once very much a part of that world.

Witchcraft was very different in the 1960s. There were a lot fewer witches, and the craft was far more secretive. At the end of that spiritually troubled decade, I was miraculously saved by the power of Jesus Christ and His saving blood. I was also delivered from every evil spirit that lived in me and was set free. However, as I began to attend fundamental Christian churches, I realized that even their witchcraft had left its mark. Pagan holidays and sabbats were celebrated as "Christian holidays."

As time went on, I watched the so-called "Christian" churches compromising and unifying. I also watched with amazement as teachings from Eastern religions and "New Age" doctrine began to captivate congregations. It was a satanic set-up, and I saw it coming. Illuministic conspirators were bringing forth a one-world religion with a cleverly concealed element of occultism interwoven in its teachings.

In order to succeed in bringing witchcraft to the world and thus complete satanic control, an entire generation would have to be induced and taught to think like witches, talk like witches, dress like witches, and act like witches. The occult songs of the 1960s launched the Luciferian project of capturing the minds of an entire generation. In the song "Sound Of Silence" by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, we were told of seeds that were left while an entire generation was sleeping, and that the "vision that was planted in my brain Still remains."

Now it is the year 2000. All of the foundations for occultism and witchcraft are in place. The Illuminists have to move quickly because time is running out.

It was the Communist revolutionary Lenin who said, "Give me one generation of youth, and I will transform the entire world." Now an entire generation of youth has been given to a woman named J.K. Rowling and her four books on witchcraft, known as the Harry Potter Series.

As a former witch, I can speak with authority when I say that I have examined the works of Rowling and that the Harry Potter books are training manuals for the occult. Untold millions of young people are being taught to think, speak, dress and act like witches by filling their heads with the contents of these books. Children are obsessed with the Harry Potter books that they have left television and video games to read these witchcraft manuals.

The first book of the series, entitled "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", finds the orphan, Harry Potter, embarking into a new realm when he is taken to "Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." At this occult school, Harry Potter learns how to obtain and use witchcraft equipment. Harry also learns a new vocabulary, including words such as "Azkaban", "Circe", "Draco", "Erised", "Hermes", and "Slytherin"; all of which are names of real devils or demons. These are not characters of fiction!

How serious is this? By reading these materials, many millions of young people are learning how to work with demon spirits. They are getting to know them by! name. Vast numbers of children professing to be Christians are also filling their hearts and minds, while willingly ignorant parents look the other way.

The titles of the books should be warning enough to make us realize how satanic and anti-christ these books are. The aforementioned title of the first book, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", was a real giveaway. The second book was called "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", while the third book was entitled "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban."

Sadly enough, this blatant witchcraft has been endorsed by well-known and respected "Christian" leaders, such as Dr. James Dobson and Chuck Colson, who have proven themselves to be modern-day Judas Iscariots. Nothing could be more obvious than that Harry Potter books are pure witchcraft and of the devil. The "Christian" leaders, however, defend them by saying that good magic always wins and overcomes evil magic.

This is the oldest con game ever hatched out of hell. As a real witch, I learned about the two sides of "the force." Apparently, so do many "Christian" leaders. When real witches have sabbats and esbats and meet as a coven, they greet each other by saying "Blessed be", and when they part, they say "The Force be with you." Both sides of this "Force" are Satan. It is not a good side of it! the force that overcomes the bad side of the force, but rather it's the blood of Jesus Christ that destroys both supposed sides of the satanic "Force."

High-level witches believe that there are seven satanic princes and that the seventh, which is assigned to Christians, has no name. In coven meetings, he is called "the nameless one." In the Harry Potter books, there is a character called "Voldemort." The pronunciation guide says of this being "He who must not be named."

On July 8 at midnight, bookstores everywhere were stormed by millions of children to obtain the latest and fourth book of! the series is known as "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." These books were taken into homes everywhere with a real evil spirit following each copy to curse those homes. July 8th was also the 18th day (three sixes in numerology) from the witches' sabat of midsummer. July 8th was also the 13th day from the signing of the United Religions Charter in San Francisco. Now we have learned that the public school system is planning to use the magic of Harry Potter in the classrooms making the public schools centers of witchcraft training.

What does God have to say about such books as the Harry Potter series? In the Bible in the book of Acts, we read the following in the 19th chapter, verses 18 - 20: "And many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds. M! any of them also which used curious arts brought their books together and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed."

As parents, we will answer to God if we allow our children to read witchcraft books. The Word of God will prevail mightily in your life only if such things of Satan are destroyed. This tract has been prayed over, and I hope it has helped you. If we may be of further assistance, please contact us.

H! arry Potter: Witchcraft Repackaged - Making Evil Look Innocent
It is surprising that there is any controversy about the Harry Potter series when author J.K. Rowling openly presents blatant Witchcraft, Satanism and pagan mythology.

Unfortunately, because many don't recognize occult symbolism, or understand Witchcraft, thousands of young readers, by inference, are led to accept them as whimsical and harmless, aided by Rowling's repackaging of Witchcraft in probably its most dangerous form - children's fantasy literature.

Does Witchcraft actually have power, and if so what is its source? And, does Rowling's presentation make Witchcraft any more acceptable?
Rowling's "Harry Potter" presents all of the following elements of Witchcraft: Mother Goddess, evolution, reincarnation, communing with the dead and spirit world, seasonal nature celebrations, sorcery, divination, spells, curses, meditation, occult symbology, black magic, demon possession, "dark" aspects of Witchcraft, and more.

Young readers today, more than any other time in history, have an abundance of occult resources easily available to them. The Harry Potter series clearly teaches young children how to become! e witches and warlocks and brings them into the new age occult world of the Luciferian illuminist, and schools them in the devil's occult craft.

The June 2000, issue of the Last Trumpet reported that Dr. James Dobson and his respected mainstream "Focus on the Family" organization has endorsed the witchcraft training manuals known as the Harry Potter books. Dobson's reasoning is that these books teach the good and bad forces, and that good always wins.

If you get the chance tell this to Dr. James Dobson and other "so-called" or "used to be" Christians, who will not BOLDLY stand AGAINST the damnable Harry Potter series:

Mat 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which belief in me, it were better for him that a millstone was hanged about his neck, and that he was drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mat 18:14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
Mark 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
Every parent and teacher should be outraged about the damnable effects that the Harry Potter series will have to their children, grandchildren, and concerned friends.
