Balaam and the company of those that curse days


Balaam and the company of those that curse days.

The bible did not underestimate the power of the Balaams of our time. The book of Job surely did mention them.

May those who curse days curse that day, those who are ready to rouse Leviathan Job 3:8 NIV

There are those who have assigned to themselves for whatever reason to place curses on days. They take upon themselves to speak curse words into every day of the week; these messengers of Satan love to see people in pain. The above scripture says that there is a monster demon called Leviathan that will execute such curse words. It suggests that Leviathan would have lain low if not provoked by these expert cursers. The skill of stirring Leviathan or whatever other spirits in charge of blessings is what Balaam is famed for. Only that in this case he was specifically called to place a curse.

This will remind us of those who are steadily harassed in their dreams or in everyday life. These are at times because a day curser has stirred some evil spirits to harass such person. I was witness to heathen priests pouring out libation and speaking words of curses or blessings. One may overlook such things as vain idolatry but the bible says that those are terrible weapons in the hand of Balaams of this age.

In another place, the words of these men or women are referred to as Calamities and Lashes (Scourge like that of a whip). 

 From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will befall you. In famine he will ransom you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction come Job 5:19-21 NIV

Note that one of the seven calamities is “The lash of the tongue”. The promise is that you will be protected from the lash of the tongue, being so protected you will hence not fear destruction. If we can take this a bit further; the cursers place curses by stirring up Leviathan the demon in charge of executing curses but the child of God is protected from such demon. If the wall of protection is not there, the cursed person is exposed to destruction. This destruction can lead to death, accidents, diseases and frustration in life etc.

The bible talks of this curse factor in another place.

No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me,"   declares the Lord. Isa 54:17 NIV

Here again we see a tongue rising up to accuse; to say things against you and declare why you are so judged. The above scripture did not say that you will lie down and sleep because the Lord will fight for you. It says that you will refute the said tongues. That means it will be your place through the help of the Holy Spirit to say, “No! Not so! That accusation is not true and the curse cannot stand!”

I hope I am getting clearer now? A dear friend and partner was concerned after the earlier post that I pointed out that we don’t have to fold our hands and wait for God to fight for us. 

Yes, I mean to emphasis that point. There are battles the Lord will have us leave for Him and not fight, like in 2Chron20, but in most other battles mentioned in the bible, the Lord will have the active involvement of His people. He will ask their leaders to call out men and meet the enemy in His Name.

The Lord said to Moses, "Take vengeance on the Midianites for the Israelites. After that, you will be gathered to your people." So Moses said to the people, "Arm some of your men to go to war against the Midianites and to carry out the Lord's vengeance on them. Send into battle a thousand men from each of the tribes of Israel Num 31:1-4NIV

Through laziness, some will rather claim only the promises that asked us to fold our hands doing nothing and overlook those that ask us to put on the whole armor of God and withstand the foes. 

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Eph 6:10-13NIV

Curses are not God’s will for His people but devil and his agents are not out to give us God’s will but their evil curses. Somebody once said, “What have I done that somebody will curse me?” Well, that is not the argument in the kingdom of darkness; they are evil and all they do is evil. So placing curses is what they live for. Curses, Spells, Hexes, Vexes and all evil yokes are daily released to locate unsuspecting persons. The bible therefore asks the believer to stand up against the works and workers of evil.

Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Eph 6:13 NIV

Another error we teach in the church is that ungodliness only refers to sin such as fornication and murder. No, ungodliness refers to everything that is contrary to God’s design and purpose for your life.

Poverty, diseases, failure, premature death, broken marriage, barrenness, impotence and all such things are all ungodliness because they are contrary to God’s likeness and nature. These are the very things that Balaam Company will want you to have. You can now understand the following scriptures better;

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.  It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope Titus 2:11-13NIV 

The Grace of God does not tell us to throw our hands into the air and wait for God’s deliverance but to say, “NO!” to things that are not God’s will for us. Those things are from the devil and are spread by his expert cursers through the demon monster Leviathan.

Can we pray again?

Say, --

1. Lord, I decree a total NO! to all the evil things that are not in your will for my life in Jesus Name

2. I say, NO! to defeat, death, diseases (you can mention the rest) in Jesus Name

3. In the name of Jesus I disallow every curse and operation of Leviathan the monster in my life in Jesus Name

4. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I confuse every demon assigned to monitor every curse placed on my life. I bind them and cast them completely out of my life in the powerful Name of Jesus Christ

5. I condemn the voice of expert cursers rising against me, in Jesus Name

6. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ I declare that I am protected from destruction and all instruments of destruction in Jesus Name

7. I silence the voice of any libation made contrary to God’s will for my life in Jesus Name 

8. In the name of  Jesus Christ I separate myself from every collective or grouped curses which the cursers have placed on me or my family in Jesus Name

9. I decree that a wall of fire surrounds me in Jesus Name

10. I unlock the presence of the Holy Spirit all over me in Jesus Name

11. I unlock God’s blessing for me and my family in Jesus Name

12. I connect to my eternal root in the Lord Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name

Begin to raise your hands and thank the Lord!

Amen!
