CHAPTER 5 | HOW TO BREAK THE GENERATIONAL CURSE?
ALTAR OF THE CROSS Gal 3:13
- This is the main altar.
- The cross is the altar built upon the sacrificial death and the precious blood of Christ.
- On the cross, the curse of the law was broken. Hallelujah!
ALTAR OF THE CHURCH. ZECHARIAH 14:17
- The families of the earth that will not go to Jerusalem (place of worship), rain will not fall on them.
- This means one who does not go to the altar of the Church, curse is placed upon him.
- In Church, the servant of God has been appointed by God to bless you.
ALTAR OF THE COVENANT
- This is your personal altar of your personal covenants with God.
WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF COVENANTS?
1. COVENANT OF SERVICE EXODUS 23:25
- This has to be covenantal not out of convenience
2. COVENANT OF OBEDIENCE. DEUT 11:26-28
3. COVENANT OF LOVE OF GOD : GIVING, PRAYER, FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD. DEUT 30:16, DEUT 7:9
- You prove love of God by giving, fellowshipping and giving to the needy.
- When these 3 altars are in place, there is no room for curse.
