THE LAMP DEVOTION

FRIDAY DECEMBER 3

DON’T CURSE OR MISTREAT GOD’S PEOPLE

Genesis 12:1-3

_Now the LORD had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you. 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you._

The blessing God promised Abraham consisted not only of material things. It has a peace and security component. God said He would bless all who blessed Abraham, and He would curse all who cursed him. This blessing applies to all of us today who have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

God said He would bless all who bless us and curse all who curse us. Note well that curses are not just evil declarations people make about you. Very often when we hear someone say, “you will amount to nothing,” or “nothing you do in this life will go well”, then we think of a curse. What about acts that are meant to bring trouble, torture and any form of displeasure to us.

The curse has several manifestations. If anyone does not verbalize the curse but is inflicting on you manifestations of a cursed life, that amounts to cursing as well.
Here’s the point. You must be careful how you treat someone who has a blood covenant relationship with Jehovah. If you treat them well, you attract a blessing, but if you maltreat them in any way, you equally attract a curse.

There is no reason for the children of God in the same family to curse or do acts against each other amounting to curses. Live your life reversing every curse that hangs around you. Make it your determination to bless everyone around you, especially the brethren.

Prayer
1. Thank God for making you a beneficiary of the blessings of Abraham.
2. Pray that you will treat all others in the family of Abraham with love and not with hate.
3. Father, please guide my heart so I will always attract blessings by relating well with Your People.

Declarations
I declare that I am blessed and so is every believer in Christ. As we all belong to God and are beneficiaries of the blessing of Abraham, I am careful to treat all as God’s children. In my actions towards my brethren, I attract God’s blessings. I declare that as I bless others so shall I be blessed in the name of Jesus.
