THE POWER OF A BLESSING
Ruth. He was famous in Bethlehem! Can you see the power of a blessing
here. I heard John Kilpatrick say he will not perform a wedding anymore
unless the parents agree to bless their children in the ceremony.
As a blessing has this much power to travel down family lines, a curse also
has that kind of power. Noah, in his anger, curses his son Ham in Genesis
9:18­29. Exactly what he spoke came to pass. As a matter of fact, the de­
scendants of Ham became the Canaanites that Israel conquered and op­
pressed. Friend we must be careful what comes out of our mouths!
Changing our mouths
The Bible says in Matthew 12:36 we will give an account on judgment day
for every careless word we have let slip out of our lips. That means every
negative word we have spoken over our children. That is for every pastor
that has spoken curses over God’s people. We will answer for it one day.
The good news is that we can erase these words, be forgiven, and start
fresh. You can say out loud, “I renounce every careless, negative, destruc­
tive, or hurtful word that has ever come out of my mouth. I cancel its power. I
destroy it now in Jesus’ name. I ask you father to forgive me for these words.
Wash them away in Jesus’ blood. I also bind the demons that have been at
work because of them. I bind you and cast you into the Abyss where you
belong in Jesus’ name!” I have led people in a prayer like this, and I have
heard so many reports of changed lives! I encourage you to guard your
mouth from being negative, and also to begin to deliberately speak bless­
ings. This will truly bring major change to your life.
