Objects and places can also be destroyed through sin and curses.
Deuteronomy 7:26 ESV And you shall not bring an abominable thing into your house and become devoted to destruction like it. You shall utterly detest and abhor it, for it is devoted to destruction.
Deuteronomy 11:29 NLT “When the LORD your God brings you into the land and helps you take possession of it, you must pronounce the blessing at Mount Gerizim and the curse at Mount Ebal.
God’s Word results in a harvest of “good fruit” if we hold on fast to it in our hearts. In the same way, we can turn the words we hear from people we trust into curses that bear “bad fruit”.
For example, a man who trusts a doctor that says he will never recover from his medical condition is unlikely to be able to receive God’s miraculous healing, no matter how many times he prays. The doctor’s words (based on a human being’s limited knowledge and not on God) has become an unintended curse. The man must take down such a stronghold through repentance and renunciation, before his relationship with God can be restored.
Luke 8:15 ESV As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience.
Psalm 146:3 NLT Don’t put your confidence in powerful people; there is no help for you there.
Just as prayers, spoken or unspoken over the people we judge, are effective. Curses form in our hearts, not in our mouths.
Matthew 15:18–19 ESV … For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander.
Ecclesiastes 10:20 AKJV Curse not the king, no not in your thought; and curse not the rich in your bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which has wings shall tell the matter.
You don’t need to learn witchcraft to curse someone. We all use our tongues in ungodly ways to curse ourselves or other people. As evidenced in James 3:9, even Christians can curse each other!
James 3:9-10 ESV With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
Some curses people may say to each other include:
God’s Word warns us against cursing other people, because it brings fiery judgement against us. The tongue has the power of spiritual life and death.
Matthew 5:22 NLT But I say, if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell.
Proverbs 18:21 ESV Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.
The good news is that when Jesus Christ died on the cross, He became a curse for us so that we may live life abundantly through the Holy Spirit, instead of suffering the spiritual or physical troubles we deserve because of our wayward hearts.
Galatians 3:13-14 ESV Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us — for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree” — so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith.
John 10:10 ESV The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
ABC News legal contributor Kimberly Wehle claimed in a Politico op-ed Wednesday that the conservative Supreme Court justices are aiming to impose a religious, Christian view on the United States.
“Justice Alito doesn’t think society is Christian enough. Recent court decisions show how he intends to remedy that,” read the subtitle.
Wehle argued that the recent decisions on the Dobbs, Carson and Kennedy cases show that “religious conservatives” seek to “undermine the bedrock concept of separation of church and state and to promote Christianity as an intrinsic component of democratic government.”

“This Robe of My Glory has always been in you, but now shall be seen upon you! It is Confrontation Time!
Did I not say that ‘All these things have been working for you a more exceeding weight of glory?’
And truly My People shall begin to shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their father, and they will have the authority to decree and thing and so shall it be established!
For this is The Season of the King and His kings and priests upon the earth, and you shall reign in every mountain of society!
So prepare yourself My Darling, for you shall be a part of My Kingdom Business and we will rule and reign in this season together, My grown up Sons and Daughters!
Let your light so shine that men will see your good deeds and glorify your Father upon the earth even in the midst of gross darkness!”
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light,” 1 Peter 2:9 NKJV.
“Part of that process was that as he stayed in the field and tended the sheep I was doing a work in Him and teaching His hands to war and His fingers to Fight!
Then came Goliath, and he killed the giant because He knew that He had killed the lion and the bear.
He knew this, because of his time in worship in the field. He knew that worship was his warfare.
Worship in the good times and bad!
Then Saul came and David learned to Honor even those who were jealous of him, and tried to kill him and drove him into the caves!
So has it been with many of you, My People, My Called Out Ones, whom I have anointed to Rule and Reign in this new season ahead!
And so, My Royal Robe you shall wear and that robe shall be The Glory that I AM placing upon you!”
“You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the Lord, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God,” Isaiah 62:3 NKJV.
Watching a documentary of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, I heard and saw The LORD taking off the old clothes from His People and He began putting on the Royal Robes over them.
I heard these Words, “I AM bringing My People out of their peasant clothes and placing the garments of the King on them, to begin to rule and reign like I have called them to!
This new Mantle upon My Church has awaited her like the Crown of King David did for him in days of old, but there was a process that he went through to get there!
He was always King from the time Samuel the Prophet anointed Him, but He had a process that He had to go through!”
