HOW TO DEACTIVATE THE CURSE | Breaking Evil Cycles and Activating the Blessing

There are certain evil trends that must stop with us and never continue into the next generation. Through the finished work of Jesus Christ, every believer has been redeemed from the curse and brought into the blessing.

Main Scriptures

Introduction

Curses are real and can affect families, health, finances, careers, businesses, relationships, and destinies. A curse is an authorisation for evil to operate, while a blessing is an authorisation for good to operate.

The good news is that Jesus became a curse for us at Calvary so that we might inherit the blessing of Abraham. Through His death and resurrection, He broke the legal hold of every curse over the believer.

But if Christ has redeemed us, why do many Christians still experience the effects of curses?

Why Curses Still Operate in Some Christians

1. Lack of Knowledge

Hosea 4:6

Many believers are destroyed because they do not understand what Christ accomplished on the Cross. You cannot enjoy a freedom you do not know belongs to you.

2. Opening Doors Through Disobedience

Proverbs 26:2 | John 14:30

Sin, rebellion, unforgiveness, occult involvement, and compromise provide legal ground for the enemy. Every curse requires a landing place.

3. Failure to Cooperate With the Blessing

Numbers 23:8, 20 | Deuteronomy 23:5

God's blessing is His empowerment for increase, preservation, fruitfulness, and dominion. When the blessing is active, the curse loses its power.

How to Activate the Blessing and Deactivate the Curse

1. Separate Yourself from Evil Associations

Psalm 1:1

Wrong company attracts wrong outcomes. The blessing flows through godly associations.

2. Put Your Trust in God, Not Men

Jeremiah 17:5

Men are channels, but God is the Source. Dependence upon God activates the blessing.

3. Become a Student of God's Word

Psalm 1:2 | Deuteronomy 28:1-2 | Luke 11:28

Every blessing is connected to divine instruction. As you hear and obey God's Word, His blessings will come upon you and overtake you.

Christ has redeemed you from the curse.

Key Scripture:

In this episode, we unpack one of David's most powerful prayers. Many Bible scholars believe David wrote Psalm 61 during a season of distress, exile, or separation from Jerusalem. Whether he was fleeing from Saul or escaping the rebellion of Absalom, David understood what it meant to feel isolated, helpless, and overwhelmed.

This is not simply a geographical location but an emotional one. It is the place where you feel alone, forgotten, and without answers. Like Elijah under the juniper tree, there are moments in life when we feel as though we are the only ones left.

David teaches us the right response to trouble. He did not run to people first—he ran to God. James 5:13 asks, "Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray." In seasons of confusion and pain, heaven is still the best place to turn.

The word "overwhelmed" speaks of being faint, exhausted, and at the end of your own strength. Even great men of faith like David and even Jesus in Gethsemane experienced deep anguish. Faith does not mean you never feel overwhelmed; it means you know where to go when you are.

David understood that there are places in life that human strength cannot reach. He needed God to take him to a place of safety, stability, and security. Throughout Scripture, the rock represents God's strength and protection, but it also points prophetically to Jesus Christ, the true spiritual Rock.

The higher rock speaks of God's superior power and His ability to lift us above what is trying to destroy us. When our strength reaches its limit, God's strength has not.

A powerful illustration comes from the 11th of March 2011, when a 9.0 magnitude earthquake triggered a devastating tsunami in Japan. In the town of Minamisanriku, some people survived because they reached higher floors and higher ground before the waves arrived. The higher they climbed, the safer they became.

Life also has its floods—pain, fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming circumstances. David's answer was not greater self-confidence but greater dependence on God. The flood may rise, but there is a Rock that is higher than the flood.

Because Jesus is the rejected stone that became the chief cornerstone.

Because the wise man built his house upon the Rock, and when the storms came, his house stood.

Because the water in the wilderness flowed from the spiritual Rock, and that Rock was Christ.

Because Jesus declared, "Upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

Kingdoms may shake. Cultures may change. The earth may tremble. But what is built on Christ cannot be destroyed.

When David prayed, "Lead me to the rock that is higher than I," he was asking God to take him to a place stronger than his strength, higher than his understanding, greater than his fears, and firmer than the shifting sands of this world.

We serve a God who operates in a higher dimension.

His ways are higher than our ways.

The tsunami may rise.

But there is a Rock that cannot be moved.

That Rock is Jesus Christ.

…BUT THE LORD DELIVERETH HIM OUT OF THEM ALL…

We appreciate you, powerful people, beautiful people, wonderful people, for being part of this journey.

In this episode, we explore the powerful promise of Psalm 34:19: "Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all."

The Bible never promises a life without trouble. In fact, Scripture repeatedly reminds us that those who follow Christ will face persecution, hardships, and tribulations. Yet, the greater promise is that God never abandons His people in their struggles.

Through passages such as 2 Timothy 3:12, Acts 14:22, and John 16:33, we discover that trials are part of the believer's journey. But through 2 Peter 2:9, Psalm 91:15, 2 Corinthians 1:10, and 2 Corinthians 4:8-9, we are assured that God is a Deliverer who rescues, sustains, and strengthens His children.

This episode is a reminder that:

Your affliction is not your destination.

Your suffering has an expiration date.

God is with you in the middle of the storm.

What the enemy meant for evil, God can turn for your good.

After the season of suffering, God Himself will restore, strengthen, and establish you.

No matter what you are facing today, remain a prisoner of hope. The God who delivered before will deliver again. You may be hard-pressed, but you will not be crushed; struck down, but not destroyed.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous... but the Lord delivers him out of them all.

In this powerful message, we explore Psalm 23 with a special focus on verse 4:

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."

Life will inevitably bring valleys—seasons of pain, uncertainty, loss, opposition, and spiritual warfare. Yet David teaches us a profound truth: God's people are not called to remain in the valley; they are called to walk through it.

Through a hermeneutical study of Psalm 23:4, we discover that:

• Trouble is a reality of life, but it is not permanent.

Drawing from the historical context of shepherding in ancient Israel, we see how sheep depended entirely on the shepherd to navigate dangerous valleys filled with hidden threats. In the same way, believers today must depend on God while facing sickness, financial struggles, family challenges, ministry battles, grief, and discouragement.

This message also highlights biblical examples of men and women who went through difficult seasons and emerged victorious:

Moses at the Red Sea and in the wilderness

Joseph in the pit and prison

Daniel in the lions' den

The three Hebrew boys in the fiery furnace

Job in his season of unimaginable loss

The central message is simple yet powerful:

Your valley is not your destination.

Whatever you are facing today, keep walking, keep believing, and keep trusting God.

YOU WILL GO THROUGH IT.

This summary captures the heart of the message: God does not always remove the valley, but He faithfully leads His people through it.

PODCAST SUMMARY — OVERCOMING SHAME

Shame has a way of making people hide, withdraw, and believe they are disqualified from God’s love and purpose. But in this powerful message, Pastor Muriel Seloise reveals that shame was never meant to define your identity. Through Christ, we are not called to live hidden, broken, or condemned — we are called to walk in freedom, confidence, and restoration.

From the very beginning, shame entered humanity through sin in the Garden of Eden, causing Adam and Eve to hide from God. But throughout scripture, we see God consistently restoring people who were rejected, broken, and ashamed. Jesus did not avoid people carrying shame — He healed them, restored them, and gave them dignity again.

This message teaches that:

You will also discover that many battles people face internally are not because God abandoned them, but because shame convinced them they are unworthy of His presence. Yet Romans 8:1 reminds us: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.”

This episode is a call to stop hiding and start healing. God is not intimidated by your scars, mistakes, or history. His grace is able to restore your confidence, renew your mind, and remind you that your identity is found in Him — not in your past.

You are not what happened to you.

You can also listen to messages from CLM | Christ Is Lord Ministries Podcast.

Today on the podcast, we reflect on the message: “The Kind Of Mothers God Called Us To Be.”

When we study the story of Moses, we discover something powerful — it took the courage, faith, and sacrifice of two mothers for destiny to be preserved.

At a time when Hebrew baby boys were being killed, the biological mother of Moses refused to surrender her son to fear, pressure, or the systems of the day. She hid him, protected him, and trusted God with his future. Even when she could no longer keep him hidden, she still acted in faith, placing him in a basket on the river — believing that God would preserve what He had called.

Then God used another woman — Pharaoh’s daughter. Though she came from a completely different background and household, she chose compassion over culture and protection over politics. She took Moses in, raised him, and ensured that he grew into the man God had destined him to become.

One mother gave birth to destiny.

Together, they reveal the kind of mothers God calls us to be:

The story of Moses reminds us that motherhood is not only biological — it is also spiritual, intentional, and sacrificial. Sometimes God will use a biological mother, and other times He will use a mentor, guardian, spiritual mother, or helper to preserve a calling.

Because when God has a plan for a child, He will position the right people around that child to make sure purpose survives.

Podcast Summary: WHEN THE WORD GROWS IN YOUR SPIRIT

Acts 19:20 — “So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.”

The Word of God is not meant to stay on pages—it is meant to grow inside your spirit until it becomes stronger than every challenge around you. When the Word grows within you, it carries power to change circumstances, produce results, and move your life forward.

No matter what you are facing, the Word has greater power. Sickness, delay, lack, or opposition cannot stop what God has spoken. As you keep declaring healing, victory, and breakthrough, the Word will eventually overcome the situation.

Paul declared in 2 Timothy 2:9 that though he was chained, the Word of God was not chained. This means your personal battles cannot limit the power of God’s Word. Even in hard seasons, the Word can still produce miracles.

When the Word is planted in your heart and nurtured consistently, it begins to bear fruit in your life. Colossians 1:6 shows that the gospel was bearing fruit and growing. God’s Word brings visible transformation wherever it is received and understood.

Jeremiah said in Jeremiah 15:16, “Thy words were found, and I did eat them.” We must consume the Word through reading, meditation, and hearing it preached. When the Word fills your spirit, it becomes your joy, your strength, and your prophetic weapon to speak your future forward.

In the book of Ezra, the rebuilding of God’s house was stopped by force and opposition (Ezra 4:23-24). But when the prophets Haggai and Zechariah began to prophesy, the work resumed.

Ezra 6:14 says they prospered through the prophesying. What was delayed began to move again because the Word prevailed over resistance.

Whatever has been delayed, hindered, or resisted in your life can begin again when the Word grows in your spirit. Feed on the Word, believe the Word, and keep speaking the Word until it prevails.

The Word of God is growing mightily in me and prevailing over every circumstance. Every delay is breaking, every obstacle is moving, and my life is advancing by the power of God’s Word.

Podcast Summary: THE TRANSFORMING POWER OF THE WORD 2 — What The Word Does For You

In this powerful message, we explore how the Word of God activates the untapped spiritual potential already placed within every believer. Just as technology like FaceTime and Zoom activated tools already installed in devices, God has installed divine capacities within us — and the Word of God unlocks them. Luke 24:45 reminds us that when God opens our understanding, our lives begin to unfold. The power of the Word is not just in reading it, but in receiving revelation from it — because understanding brings light, and light brings transformation.

The message highlights five powerful things the Word does for you. First, the Word guides you, providing direction and clarity in times of confusion (Psalm 119:105). Second, the Word delivers you, bringing healing and freedom through revelation and knowledge (Psalm 107:20). Third, the Word sets you free, breaking the bondage of ignorance and transforming your thinking and life (John 8:32). Fourth, the Word builds you up, strengthening your spiritual capacity and maturing you in faith (Acts 20:32). Finally, the Word becomes your weapon of mass destruction, empowering you to overcome challenges and secure victory (Ephesians 6:17).

Ultimately, this message emphasizes that the Word of God is not just information — it is transformation. When the Word enters your life, light comes, freedom comes, growth comes, and victory becomes your reality.

In this episode, we explore The Transforming Power of the Word and why every believer must make time for God's Word. Many believers desire change, growth, and power, but neglect the very thing that produces them — the Word of God.

Everything in the Kingdom of God begins with the Word.

The Word builds you

The Word strengthens you

The Word transforms you

The Word empowers you

Before understanding what the Word does for you, we must first understand two foundational truths about the Word.

John 1:1 — "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

The Word existed before:

Your problems

Your struggles

Your sickness

Your challenges

Because the Word existed before your situation, the Word has authority over your situation.

John 8:58 — "Before Abraham was, I am."

Jesus is eternal. When you stand on the Word, you stand on something eternal and unshakable.

John 1:14 — "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us..."

The Word became Jesus. This means:

The Word is not just information

The Word is a person

The Word is Jesus

Revelation 19:13 — "...His name is called The Word of God."

When you:

Read the Word — you fellowship with Jesus

Meditate on the Word — you connect with Jesus

Speak the Word — you release the authority of Jesus

The Word cleanses your heart, mind, and life.

John 15:3 — You are made clean through the Word

Just like you wash your body daily, you must wash your spirit with the Word daily.

Growth in the Christian life comes through the Word.

1 Peter 2:2 — Desire the sincere milk of the Word

No Word = No Growth

Faith is produced by the Word.

Romans 10:17 — Faith comes by hearing the Word

You cannot believe what you have not heard.

The Word carries healing power.

Psalm 107:20 — He sent His Word and healed them

The Word is:

Life to your spirit

Healing to your body

Strength to your soul

The Word is not ordinary.

The Word cleans you

The Word grows you

The Word builds faith in you

The Word heals you

If you want transformation in your life:

Spend time in the Word

Study the Word

Meditate on the Word

Speak the Word

Because when the Word enters your life…

If there's a man to hear the Word…

Matthew 28:6 (KJV)

The resurrection of Jesus is not just a historical event — it is a present-day power.

It is not only something we celebrate during Easter; it is something we live by every day.

Because Jesus rose, our lives in 2026 must look different.

The resurrection changed everything:

The resurrection means three things:

2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)

Because Jesus rose from the dead, you have new life.

The resurrection means you’re not defined by:

When Jesus rose, you rose into a new life.

You are not the same person.

Romans 8:11 (KJV)

The same power that raised Jesus is working in you.

You are not walking in fear — you are walking in resurrection power.

The resurrection gives us living hope.

Because Jesus rose, your story is not over.

In 2026, you are not hopeless — you are hopeful.

The resurrection gives us power to live differently.

You are not bound to:

Because Jesus rose, you can walk in newness of life.

In 2026, you are not bound — you are free.

Jesus disarmed death when He rose from the dead.

Because Jesus rose, Satan is defeated.

You have authority:

You are not a victim — you are victorious.

Because Jesus rose, we now have access to God.

You can pray with confidence:

The resurrection opened the door to answered prayers.

In 2026, you are not praying in doubt — you are praying in resurrection confidence.

Philippians 3:10 (KJV)

Because Jesus rose, your life now has purpose.

You are called to:

You are not just existing — you are living with purpose.

In 2026, you are not wandering — you are walking in purpose.

Because Jesus rose:

The resurrection is not just something we celebrate —

Because He lives:

In 2026, may you walk in resurrection power.

Because He is risen…
