Taking Every Thought Captive

Taking Every Thought Captive - the biological/spiritual side and how it works together!



We all have heard that it takes 28 days to create a new habit or way of thinking. Why is that? Why does it take time to renew our minds to the Lord's truth about who we are in Christ? Isn't it time to get rid of those controlling toxic thoughts and emotions? The neurology behind holding every thought captive!

Renewing our minds requires a person to meditate on the Word of God with His truth. You might have memories of negative words spoken over you by your parents, peers, or people at work, and you believe the lie. To renew your mind to what God says is true about you is renewing the mind. How do you apply it? Let's say you are asked to do a project, and immediately you hear in your thought, "I might fail, or I'm not good enough, or I'm not smart enough". Does that voice in your head come from the Lord or from the enemy? Why would he do that? He knows you will and knows your history. He knows what your parents or peers said to you in the past and how it made you feel because you believed it. Now, you have a choice to accept the lie in your head or apply the word of God! That is renewing the mind in the circumstances by applying truth. When you do that by using the word of God against the lie, then you are actually creating neurons to grow by making new connections in your brain. That creates a permanent imprint in our brains or mind. When we believe a lie or react to fear, we develop neurons to grow negative or positive.

For example, if you were bit by a dog as a child, then every time you see a dog coming at you, you will immediately react in fear. You have a pathway to fear imprinted in your mind about dogs!

Well, what is happening is there is a term in neuroscience called Neuroplasticity, so neuron stands for your Neurons, and Plasticity stands for the growth and connection of those neurons. As we learn something, we integrate it into our being, increase our neuroplasticity, and create more connections. The more we do that, the stronger it gets. Like the example, the more we give into that fear, the more potent it becomes, and more pathways of fear are created. Every time a different fear issue occurs, another pathway connection is created to fear. We have these theta brain waves where a spirit of fear is constantly firing that pathway repeatedly. So, it continues to grow. 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. So, we see that fear is a spirit.

That is why deliverance is essential if we have a stronghold to fear. People don't know that a person has to renew their mind. The difference between having deliverance and not having deliverance is as follows:

Then you go through deliverance and are freed from that spirit of fear, but you are still left with all these brain connections. And neurons want to stay alive just like everything else.

So, neuron needs three things to stay alive. It needs oxygen, sugar, and stimulation. Our thoughts is what stimulates the neurons. Now, you have an idea, and you’ve just been delivered, and you are driving down the road, and you think, Oh my god, I’m not going to make it on time, and all these horrible things will happen. Now, you create a change. You say no. I recognize that as fear, and I’m walking in the grace of God, and he will protect me. Now, I begin to grow a new pathway (neuroplasticity) that says I’m safe, god loves me, and god will protect me even through my mistakes. Christ walks with me. You will begin to actually grow these new pathways.

The old pathways - have you ever heard the term use it or lose it? That is a reality. These proteins have a half-life of 14 days, which means in 14 days, if you have 100 proteins, you will only be left with 50 proteins. In another 14 days you will be left with 25. What happens in 28 days is now down to 25 proteins, and those cells are beginning to degenerate. That is where people talk about breaking habits and taking 28 days. That may be why.

Researchers say that 87 percent of the illnesses that plague us today directly result from our thoughts. What we think affects us physically and emotionally.

A lot of times, people try to do this naturally through positive thinking or positive affirmations. I’m a wonderful person, I’m a happy person, etc. You got the people in the back car going – you are not satisfied, you are miserable. So basically every time you fire the happy pathway, you also fire the self-hatred pathway. It works with what we are doing here because I’m eliminating the backseat of people through deliverance. Now, I can apply what is in reality to renew my mind. I’m renewing my mind in God’s word. As I renew my mind in the truth, these old thoughts are degenerating and dying and going away.

Here is the kicker. There is another neurology term called trans neurodegeneration. What that means is that the neurons want to stay alive but, in essence, are dying. So, as it gets weaker and weaker, it begins to fire on its own. It just starts to go haywire. Now, all of a sudden, you are doing good in your walk and doing well. These things are beginning to lose their power and effect, and suddenly, they go bang, bang, bank gang, bang. You are sitting there right up against the wall. That is where you dig in, push through it, hold every thought captive, and keep God on your mind. If you give in at that point, what do they start doing? They get to grow again. We give them permission to grow again.

Then you open the theta brain wave door again and allow the spirits to enter again. This is the process through the biology of how our brain works when renewing the mind. That is actually what is happening in our brains.

Throughout my life, I developed this fear in the kitchen, in the car, etc, in all these different areas. So, what happens when you are going through your life and dealing with it? Then, guess what happens one day? Boom, fear, because suddenly you are back in a different area. That pathway still needs to be dealt with. That door must still be closed, and those neurons fire up. Suddenly, who knows what happens, you are in a restaurant and you hear an old song and you are eating the steak and you think “Oh man I ate a raw steak once and almost died.” You have not had that experience in a long time. You deal with the fear in that experience at that moment with God’s word. You’ve not heard of that experience in a long time, so fear tries to return, and you have to deal with the fear again. All the areas associated with fear in our walk of life begin to get cut off.

Isn't it time to remove hate, anxiety, anger, hostility, resentment, frustration, impatience, and irritation? All these produce toxic attitudes and create a chemical reaction in the body that can alter behavior. Negative emotions also release a toxic chemical, affecting every cell in your body. If they persist long enough, they can even affect the cell's nucleus and cause it to mutate, causing cancer to be produced in your body.

For example, A spirit of fear is the root of stress. Scriptures say, "God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and love and of a sound mind" (2 Tim. 1:7). Fear-based thinking blocks the flow of healthy chemicals and releases toxic chemicals that put you into stress. Isn't it time to stop the stress? A spirit of fear can be worrying about anything that consumes your mind. Isn't it time to get free from a spirit of fear and change the chemicals in your brain to have good health and good thoughts?

What Are Curses

What are Demonic Curses

Why do we need to break curses


What Are Curses, Generational Curses, and How Sin or Disobedience Brings About a Curse - Understand breaking curses and breaking generational curses.

Christian Warfare


spiritual warfare teachings


In 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:"


Ephesians 6:12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.


James 4:1-10. From whence come wars and fightings among you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and ye have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Therefore, whoever will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do you think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves, therefore, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.


Jesus said if you love me you will obey my commandments....he also said that He changes not. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Paul said that Jesus is the God of the Old Testament...He gave the Law to Moses, He was the pillar of fire and the cloud in the desert....so if He was the God of the Old Testament and Jesus said (in the NT) that He does not change, and if we love Him we would obey His commandments....that would be the OT commandments too. He didn't come to do away with the Law, He came to fulfill it.....that we MIGHT have life. (No sacrifices required, He did it for us....)


If we have faith and obedience to the voice of God and His word, then 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." Curses are evil spirits manifestating in sickness and disease, torment, etc. Curses don't just come randomly. There has to be an open door generationally or through sin or disobedience.


There are people who cast spells on anyone. Again a curse causeless cannot come unless there is an open door to give the curse (evil demonic spirits) legal right to you body, soul or spirit. If that has been the case and you were the intended recipient, all you have to do is say: "I don't receive this in my life in the name of Jesus." If you have been prey to the spell and have knowingly or unknowingly participated with the sin, repent of this, renounce it, and cancel the assignment, in the name of Jesus.



List of curses from disobedience and sin in Deuteronomy 27 and generational curses from forefathers who participated in these sins listed below:



Make and worship images: 15 Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.



The contempt of parents: 16 Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen. The contempt of parents is a sin so heinous that it is put next to the contempt of God himself. If a man abused his parents, either in word or deed, he fell under the sentence of the magistrate, and must be put to death, Ex. 21:15, 17. Today, confession of sin and doing a 180 turn cancels the death penality of death.



Moving land boundaries: 17 Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark. And all the people shall say, Amen.



Not taking care of the blind: 18 Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way. And all the people shall say, Amen. Seducing others from the way of God s commandments, and entice them to sin, bring this curse upon themselves, which our Saviour has explained, Mt. 15:14, The blind lead the blind, and both shall fall into the ditch.



Not taking care of the widow and fatherless: 19 Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger, fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.



Sleeping with father's wife: 20 Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife; because he uncovereth his father's skirt. And all the people shall say, Amen.



Perverted sex with animals: 21 Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast. And all the people shall say, Amen.



Incest is a cursed sin: 22 Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.



Sex with Mother in Law: 23 Cursed be he that lieth with his mother in law. And all the people shall say, Amen.



24 Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbour secretly. And all the people shall say, Amen.



25 Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen.



26 Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen.



If you have any of these sins from this partial list and have not repented from them, then you are living under a curse. If your forefathers have participated in the above sins, this will also bring about a curse but also these spirits will try to work on you to open the same door. That is what generational curses are - repeating the same sins. You will feel the pull to do the same if you are aware. For example, a father was an alcoholic and that same spirit will try to program you to be the same. Sometimes, as children, we make a vow to never be like a parent and that sets the curse into motion.



Results of Curses from disobedience and direct participation in sin or not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God



List of curses directly from a result of disobedience listed in Deut. 28:15 - 68:



15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:



16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.



17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.



18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.



19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.



20 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.



21 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.



22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.



23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.



24 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.



25 The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.



26 And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away.



27 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.



28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:



29 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.



30 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.



31 Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue them.



32 Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long; and there shall be no might in thine hand.



33 The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway:



34 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.



35 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.



36 The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.



37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.



38 Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it.



39 Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them.



40 Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast his fruit.



41 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.



42 All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.



43 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.



44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.



45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:



46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.



47 Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;



48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.



49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;



50A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:



51 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.



52 And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.



53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:



54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:



55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates.



56 The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,



57 And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.



58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD;



59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.



60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.



61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.



62 And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the LORD thy God.



63 And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.



64 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.



65 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:



66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:



67 In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.



68 And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by way of which I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.


This list above is a good way to examine your life in light of what could be in your generations. If you see evidence of any of these happening, take the time to repent and renounce them from your generation and, if necessary, yourself.


Deliverance from evil spirits, breaking curses or breaking generational curses by casting out demons. Curses result from sin or disobedience, and generational cures result from sins or disobedience from our forefathers, so a Christian must resist the devil.


The way to break a curse is to repent for whatever involvement has occurred on the enemy's territory and rebuke the devil out of your life. You should also pray something along the following lines:



"Father, I ask you first to forgive me for my sins and cleanse me from any area where I have allowed the devil to enter my life. I renounce any involvement with the works of darkness. In the name of Jesus, I now cancel every curse, and Father, I ask you to forgive the people who have spoken against me. I thank you that those curses will no longer operate against me. In Jesus' name, they are broken right now by the power of Almighty God. I cancel every evil spoken against me and ask you to protect me and my family according to your Word in Psalm 91."

Sins of the Tongue - The World of Iniquity - tongue is a fire

Sins of the Tongue


Much can be said of a person's character by the way they use their tongue. "Speech is the index of the mind." Jesus said that "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." (Mat. 12:34). According to Proverbs 18:21, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." In James 3:6, the Bible says that the tongue is "a fire, a world of iniquity", and James 3:8 calls the tongue a "deadly poison."

As a fool would carelessly play and prank with a loaded gun, so many Christians today do likewise with their deadly tongue. If only we could fully realize the untold damage we are doing to the body of Christ! If only we could see the full effect of the words we use!

Perhaps a closer look into the Bible can help. God made man, and God made man's tongue, so surely God should be qualified to comment on the subject. Indeed God should have some good counsel concerning the use and misuse of the human tongue. Let us consider some sins of the tongue as we find them revealed in God's word.

The Lying Tongue


Proverbs 25:18 says, "A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow." So a lying tongue is a misuse of a deadly weapon. It can be used to harm others near at hand (a maul), a few feet away (a sword), or a great distance away (an arrow). Satan is the father of lies (John 8:44), and God said that he hates a lying tongue (Pro. 6:17). All liars will have their part in the lake of fire, according to Revelation 21:8.

The Flattering Tongue


Flattery is also a sin of the tongue. The Bible speaks of flattery as a characteristic of the wicked, not the righteous: "For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulcher; they flatter with their tongue." (Psalm 5:9) Imagine the improvements which could be made in our nation if voters elected leaders on the basis of the RECORD rather than on the basis of the flattering speeches! Flattery is just a form of lying, and it has no place in the life of a Christian.

The Proud Tongue


The Bible also speaks of the proud tongue. Psalm 12:3-4 says, "The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things: Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?" The most annoying Christians in the world are those with proud tongues because a proud tongue usually comes with two closed ears! Proud-tongued Christians are generally so full of themselves that they learn very little from anyone else. A proud-tongued Christian will talk much of his knowledge and service but very little about the Lord.

In a church, a proud-tongued Christian will make all sorts of suggestions about how the church should function, yet his suggestions, if received, will burden everyone but himself. A proud-tongued Christian is hard to teach or reason with because he thinks he knows everything.

God hates a proud tongue. Allow the Holy Spirit to use your tongue in the way of humility and kindness because pride will only quench God's Spirit and damage your testimony.

The Overused Tongue

Some people sin by simply overusing their tongue. Ecclesiastes 5:3 says that "a fool's voice is known by multitude of words." People think they appear smart by much talking, but the Bible states just the opposite. Ecclesiastes 5:2 says, "Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few." God doesn't like a blabber mouth. You say, "Well, that's just the way I am!" Then REPENT! Confess your sin and repent. Stop justifying your wickedness and ask God to help you repent.

The Swift Tongue


Some people are guilty of speaking too swiftly when they really need to wait before saying anything. God's word says the following in Proverbs 18:13: "He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him." How many times have you had to "eat" your words because you spoke too swiftly? James 1:19 warns us to be swift to HEAR and SLOW to speak. Why do you suppose God gave us two ears but only one mouth?

The Backbiting Tongue


Proverbs 25:23 and Romans 1:30 make mention of a backbiting tongue. A backbiter is someone who uses their tongue against you when you aren't present, yet they will not face you with their charges when you are present. This is a cowardly backbiter who would rather stir up problems than solve problems.

A backbiter would much rather talk about the preacher than talk to the preacher. A backbiter would much rather talk ABOUT some weak Christian in the church than offer some words of encouragement to them. A backbiter is of no use to anyone, and no one has ever been strengthened or edified through backbiting. Beware of the backbiters, especially the ones who sow discord among brethren (Pro. 6:19)!

The Tale-Bearing Tongue


Proverbs 18:8 says, "The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly." Leviticus 19:16 says, "Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people. . ." Every Christian has the duty to deny his own desires and seek to edify other Christians (Rom. 14:19; Philip. 2:3). Talebearing runs wholly contrary to Christian edification. Talebearing (carrying and telling tales) spreads all sorts of hurtful information around, and Satan uses such information to hinder and tear down God's work. A victim of talebearing, according to Proverbs, is a "wounded" person. God forbid that a Christian should wound another Christian, but it does happen all the time! Some Christians live as though they think God has "called" them to bear tales on other Christians. Many "Christian" newsletters are dedicated to informing the body of Christ on the latest news about someone's ministry or personal life. There are many nice words and phrases used to justify such conduct, but the Bible word is TALEBEARING.

The Cursing Tongue


Some people, Christians included, have a nasty habit of using their tongue for cursing. Romans 3:13-14 says, "Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness." This passage deals strictly with unsaved people and their ungodly ways, yet there are a great many professing Christians who curse regularly. Friend, why would you want to identify yourself with someone whom God describes as being DEAD, DECEITFUL, and POISON?

"As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him. As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones."(Psalm 109:17-18) Many people curse because their life is miserable. They are unhappy so they make it known with their degenerate speech. This text says that God keeps them unhappy BECAUSE of their speech! God curses those who curse! Christian, don't expect God's blessings when your mouth is filled with cursing.

The Piercing Tongue


Another sinful tongue is the piercing tongue. Proverbs 12:18 speaks of this tongue by saying, "There is that speaketh like the piercing's of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health." Some people have a sharp piercing tongue which Satan uses to offend and insult others. The Bible commands Christians to have their speech dominated by GRACE (Col. 4:6), yet most churches have a few people who use their tongue like a sword to pierce their brethren in Christ.

It was Teddy Roosevelt who said, "Speak softly and carry a big stick," but the truth is that if you speak softly you won't need a big stick! Titus 2:8 commands us to use sound speech which cannot be condemned. Friend, do you use graceful speech which cannot be evil spoken of, or do you possess a piercing tongue? Every Christian's prayer should be, "Lord, make my words gracious and tender, for tomorrow I may have to eat them."

The Silent Tongue


A silent tongue is also a sinful tongue because we have been commanded to speak up and witness for the Lord Jesus Christ. In Acts 1:8, Jesus said, "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost comes upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." We, as Christians, must tell others about the saving grace of Jesus. To be silent about Christ is to sin against Christ. Jesus said, "Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels." (Mark 8:38) Christian friend, if you do not want to be ashamed of yourself when the Lord returns, then don't be ashamed of Jesus today. Pray for opportunities to speak up for your Saviour. Don't be found guilty of having a silent tongue.

"For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body." (James 3:2)

Symptoms of Unforgiveness

Free powerful deliverance book below - Unraveling Deliverance

Bitterness is a chronic state of smoldering resentment one of the most destructive and toxic human emotions, and. When a person is bitter usually has hostility toward someone who hurt them.  If not taken care of, the bitterness will be very judgmental, cruel, hurtful to others, murmur and complain about others very easily, and have no grace.  Resentment can turn into retaliation towards another person, up to murder physically or with the tongue - gossip or evil talk tearing down someone's character. 

Many times people, who refuse to forgive others, live as victims - with a spirit of self-pity telling others what someone did to them.  If bitterness is not taken care of will manifest as long-term mismanagement of annoyance, irritation, frustration, anger, or rage.  Most mental disorders stem either directly from--or secondarily generate--anger, rage, resentment, hostility, or bitterness.

Most mental illnesses will manifest either:  self-defeating - depression or sometimes passive-aggressive, destructive, vengeful, or even violent behavior. Pathological embitterment is a dangerous state of mind that can and does motivate evil deeds toward others. 

Dwelling on Negative Events

One of the most reliable means of detecting unforgiveness is when a person dwells on negative events; both past and present. Unforgiving persons will replay the negative events over and over in their minds and refuse to submit them to the Lord per His command. Sometimes the unforgiving person will tell other people about these events, and sometimes they will not. Some refuse to say anything, and some cannot stop talking about it. I believe it is good to talk over things for the sake of counseling. However, I believe it is bad for them to be discussed frequently in ordinary conversations since then; it is nothing more than gossip.

Mental torment or mental illness is linked to unforgiveness.

Negative Images
You will have negative images of the person that hurt you, and these images will keep you awake at night!

You Will Be Pinged!
If the person that hurt you enters the room or someone mentions their name, you feel feelings of being pinged, your heart hurts like a broken heart, you get angry, you want to run or hide when they enter the room, start telling someone what they did to you - going into an accusation or gossip about that person or you just do not want to hear that name, then you have unforgiveness.

Bitterness
Unforgiving persons are often bitter persons. Family relationships seem to be the hardest for them to cope with. Friends not connected to the family, oddly enough, seem to escape the wrath of the unforgiving person, whereas family members must endure the scowls, silent treatments, insults, thrown objects, and yelling. Unforgiving persons, who happen to attend church, treat some church members as badly as they would their immediate family. This is the reason some unforgiving persons refuse to attend church at all.

Depression
A relationship not right with God is depressing. We cannot expect to be blessed when we are out from under God's hands of protection due to our refusal to forgive someone else. Unforgiving persons cannot have a right relationship with the Lord until they repent and forgive. Therefore, many of God's blessings are not given to them, and protection against the devil is no longer guaranteed to the unforgiving person.

Distrust in People - Paranoia
When you've been hurt or not cared for by a parent(s), then usually there is bitterness.  The bitterness will manifest as distrust and suspicion of others.  I knew of a woman she has a ministry who was paranoid about everything.  She had a prophetic gift, but she many times would read people wrong because of that paranoia which is a spirit of fear pairing up with bitterness.  I would see her each month cutting off people either because she didn't trust them, they didn't do something right or she was just jealous of them because of the similarity of gifts. 

Very Critical and Religious


Self-Harm
Every cutter and burner I have met admitted to me that they refuse to forgive someone. Some have told me they use self-injury as a coping mechanism. I do not fully understand this and wonder if I ever will. Even though I may not understand, I have come to recognize this as a sign of unforgiveness, and I then investigate who it was that originally hurt them and when.

Self-Seclusion
Eventually, the unforgiving person tends to withdraw from having contact with other human beings. There comes a time when it's simply too much to deal with. The unforgiving person can reach a point where they will not risk being hurt by anyone else ever again. The issues build up unless something is released. I've noticed that some who seclude themselves engage in "throw-away" relationships via the Internet. This way, as soon as some new Internet friend hurts their feelings, they can send an exhaustive email explaining how they felt the other person hurt them and then block their ex-friends' emails or instant messages.

Inability to Recognize God's Presence
Satan can use unforgiveness to form a barrier between the person and the Lord. How can this be? It's simple. God cannot forgive those who refuse to forgive someone else. Unforgiven sin separates us from God. It must be the willful volition of the unforgiving person to forgive. It must become their desire to submit their life to God's Will and love Him more so than obtaining revenge or any other form of compensation. I advise people to report the crimes against them so that the matter of justice leaves their hands and is transferred to law enforcement and the judicial system, and ultimately to God. God is just and holy. He punishes sin. If the person refuses to hand the matter over to the authorities, they must forgive nonetheless. Nobody is exempt from God's command to forgive, no matter the circumstances. The difference is that justice no longer becomes a personal thing but rather something belonging to God. Instead of wanting justice our way, we should trust God's power and perfect planning to deal with the matter justly, His Way. This literally frees us to think about other things, such as God's love, grace, mercy, and His forgiveness of our own personal sins we committed against Him.

Attention Seeking
Some people use past and present unforgiven events to obtain the attention of other people. Have you ever heard the old saying, "It's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease"? Some people have learned that this is true. They squeak! For some reason, and I do not understand why this is either, some unforgiving persons refuse to forgive because they can still use whatever the offense was to obtain the sympathy and attention they crave. To forgive would be to let go of their victim status. Some might fear that nobody will listen to them anymore. When we forgive people because we have chosen to follow Jesus, we are not victims anymore, but rather we are made more than conquerors in Christ. Attention must be shifted from what happened and then be given to God in submission to His Divine Will for our lives. Pride must be done away with so that the unforgiving person will humbly admit they are sinful, too. I believe God's heart is broken whenever someone is abused, but I also believe that His heart is broken all the more whenever we reject what His Son, Jesus Christ, did on the cross to purchase our forgiveness.
