TRANSFORMING THE CURSE INTO BLESSING

LESSON 7 OUTLINE (Deliverance)

SEVEN SIGNS:
1. Mental and emotional disintegration.
When people fly off the handle or lose control because of emotional pressure.

2. Repeated or chronic illnesses.

The fact that the same illness hits mothers, daughters, grand-daughters, great
granddaughters that is a curse.

3. Involuntary miscarriages or other related female problems.

(barrenness - Genesis 20)

4. Marriage breakdowns and enmity between relatives.

5. Constant financial insufficiency or lack.

The most incredible thing is that many people make good money, but they never have
enough. They are also in debt. This is a type of curse.

6. Predisposed to accidents.
There are people who are constantly in accidents and don’t know why.

7. History of suicides in the family, or deaths not by natural means

When Solomon said,
“The curse never comes with a cause,” he was telling us that evil is manifested when
there is a cause.
The most important thing is to identify the existence of a cause.
If you ignore it, the adversary will have control over your life.
His strategy is to keep you in the dark so that he could do more harm.
