Open Heaven 25 July 2025 TOPIC – Freedom From Generational Curses (1)

MEMORISE: “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” – John 8:36 (KJV)

READ: Colossians 2:14-15 (KJV)

14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 38-40

Open Heaven 25 July 2025 MESSAGE

Today, many people are suffering from generational curses. They struggle to succeed every day, but a powerful force seems to resist them. If this is your story, I decree your freedom today, in Jesus’ name.

If you notice certain negative patterns in your family that seem to be beyond anyone’s control, there is a possibility that a generational curse is in play. One thing about generational curses is that they are supervised by demons who have built a stronghold in that family. Because of how strong their hold is in the family; many members of the family ultimately give in to the curse. They see the effects of the curse as their lot, so they never try to fight against it. When Moses killed an Egyptian to save an Israelite, it was the same Israelites who condemned him and let the secret out. They had fallen in love with their oppressors even though they were suffering. They even quarrelled with Moses in the wilderness many times for setting them free. They kept talking about the food in Egypt and even the graves (Numbers 11:5, Exodus 14:11). Obviously, they had resolved to die in their negative situation; after all, it was in the same situation that their fathers died. The stronghold of the devil had eaten into their minds.

Beloved, if you have noticed a negative pattern in your family, please don’t settle into it as if it is normal. Don’t let those curses have a hold on your mind; be determined to break free from them. Your father, mother, and those older than you may have experienced it, but that doesn’t mean you must also experience it.

There was a young man who was 39 years old and was about to turn 40. He came to me for prayers and said that no male in his family had ever exceeded 40 years of age. He said he was the oldest male in the family, and now he was about to turn 40. He was afraid that he was going to die, and that was why he came to me. We prayed, and he is still alive today, more than 30 years later. If he had not refused to become a victim of the generational curse in his family and had instead started preparing for his death, he would never have been liberated. If you have noticed any generational curses in your family, submit yourself to God today, resist the devil, and he will run far away from you (James 4:7).

Open Heaven 25 July 2025 PRAYER POINT

I take authority over my life, and I break every stronghold that the devil has over it today, in Jesus’ name.

Open Heaven 25 July 2025 HYMN 19 – Rock Of Ages, Cleft For Me

1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee;
let the water and the blood,
from thy wounded side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure;
save from wrath and make me pure.

2 Not the labors of my hands
can fulfill thy law’s demands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears forever flow,
all for sin could not atone;
thou must save, and thou alone.

3 Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to the cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Savior, or I die.

4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
when mine eyes shall close in death,
when I soar to worlds unknown,
see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee.
