Set a wicked man over him,
And let an accuser stand at his right hand.
7 When he is judged, let him be found guilty,
And let his prayer become sin.
8 Let his days be few,
And let another take his office.
9 Let his children be fatherless,
And his wife a widow.
10 Let his children continually be vagabonds, and beg;
Let them seek their bread[b] also from their desolate places.
11 Let the creditor seize all that he has,
And let strangers plunder his labor.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy to him,
Nor let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13 Let his posterity be cut off,
And in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the Lord,
And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Let them be continually before the Lord,
That He may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
16 Because he did not remember to show mercy,
But persecuted the poor and needy man,
That he might even slay the broken in heart.
And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Let them be continually before the Lord,
That He may cut off the memory of them from the earth;
16 Because he did not remember to show mercy,
But persecuted the poor and needy man,
That he might even slay the broken in heart.
Though the wicked is standing in more power today than the church, it is still necessary that we watch our words. God tells us how to speak to one another in His word, He also said, "do not fret because of those who are evil." Our words carry power and they go out into our atmosphere, to do exactly what we sent them to do, in most cases. As we just read in David's anger, he cursed these people and their families something fierce, curses that have been handed down generation after generation. If these curses are not broken by someone, they will continue on and on. I had to figure that out quickly, if I were ever going to have a life and a piece of mind . This is why God tells us to work out our salvation with fear and trembling. He also tells us to carry our own load. God is our power and strength. Only by obeying His words and commands will we free ourselves from these generational curses. We see all of what David pronounced thousands of years ago still happening today. If we don't train our minds and words to biblical commands this can only get worse. God commands, that we not return evil for evil, but to extend graciousness and hospitality to all, letting our words be sprinkled with salt. God is concerned about His entire world, and until we become concerned as He is, we will continue to see, hearts broken, lives torn apart, and people begging. (Matthew 25:41-46) "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’44 “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Break your curses.
(Genesis 12:3) "I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Blessings to all as we break our family's curses,
