The curse of birth defects is very real in today’s society, and it’s a generational curse. The Bible says that curses come from the sins of our ancestors, and this one is no exception. Through the years, many people have been born with deformities or diseases because their parents sinned against God.
However, like all other generational curses, this can be overcome through repentance and prayer. It can also be overcome by confession before God and asking for forgiveness on behalf of your family members who were involved in past sins that brought about this bad luck on your life. In addition to repentance, there are also other things you can do to break the cycle of this awful condition: asking Jesus Christ into your heart will wash away all sin from your family line (John 1:12), as will being baptized into Christ (Acts 2:38), receiving His Holy Spirit (Titus 3:5-6) and obeying His commandments (John 14:15).
