“He’s never going to find a job.” “She’s too lazy to do a decent day’s work.” “This is too hard. I’ll never be able to do it.” “If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.” “Life’s a bitch, and then we die.” Harmless comments?
How often have you noticed that once words are out there, they seem to take on a life of their own? The boy who’s called “lazy” when he’s a child grows up to be a lazy man. The person who’s told she’ll never succeed turns out to be a failure. Psychologists call these self-fulfilling prophecies. Demonic spirits call them word curses.
Demonic spirits listen for opportunities to come into our lives and make our word curses come true. I’ve seen it happen again and again. Words are extremely important in the spirit realm.
Take, for example, the words “always” and “never.” “You always get sick when you eat pizza.” “You never remember to take your vitamins.” “I can never remember my mother’s birthday.” When a person is a victim of demonic harassment, comments like these become etched in stone. In order to break the cycle, the word curses must be broken, and the spirits involved must be cast away through God in Jesus’ name.
To paraphrase an old Johnny Mercer song, if you want to make sure your words can’t be construed as curses, “You’ve got to accentuate the positive; eliminate the negative; latch on to the affirmative. And don’t mess with Mr. In-Between.
