Silence Curses, Vows, and Iniquities: 11 Decrees for Freedom Over Your Bloodline

Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so (James 3:10 NKJV).

Father God, I know You love me and have blessed me.

You have never cursed me but see me as complete through the blood of Jesus. Knowing that, I reject all curses that have come against me from the lips of others and from my own words spoken in self-defeat. I refuse to believe the lies brought against me, and I forgive those who have spoken against me and my future.

Lord, I ask You to examine my bloodline. See if there is any iniquity passed down to me. Break off any leftover curse so I may be counted among the thousand generations of those who love You. I also ask You to search me for any inner vows I have made—vows that I “will never,” “can’t,” “refuse to,” or “I won’t.” I know that when I say such things, I am making a commitment to something other than You. This takes the future out of Your hands for me and my children. Forgive me, Lord! I repent of my careless words that not only stall my purpose and destiny, but cut off my generations from all that You have for them.

Jesus, I ask forgiveness for the grumblings and curses I have spoken in anger or carelessness over the lives of my family, friends, and even my enemies. I repent! I will not partner with hell through my words. Holy Spirit, move in me! Give me a clean heart to forgive those who have wronged me so that bitterness and evil words will not come from my lips. I pray for a heart that speaks blessing over my enemies and honor over those I love. Let me prophesy in love for the strengthening, encouragement, and comfort of myself and others. I ask this in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

I Declare in the Mighty Name of Jesus:

• I am of the bloodline of Jesus. All curses spoken against me are null and void because His blood paid for my complete and full redemption.

• The future of my children is blessed by my words and attitudes, that no iniquity would be passed down through my generations. I am a chain breaker!

• All inner vows I have made that limit my purpose and destiny and the future of my children are broken. They are cancelled by the blood of Jesus.

• Any judgments I have made against others are cast down. Jesus is the only Righteous Judge.

• I forgive those who have hurt me and refuse to walk in any form of bitterness, whether by grumbling, inner vows, or curses. I break any partnership with the sons of Korah or the House of Dathan.

• I am not a clanging gong! I speak with love and prophesy for the empowerment, healing, and comfort of others.

• I will bless those who speak against me and pray for their hearts to be turned to the truth. I will not return curse for curse.

• I am a life-breather. I refuse to speak negative words that lead to death.

• Every evil imagination is cast down. I will bring every thought into captivity before they become words or actions.

• I repent of judgments, grumbling, careless words, curses, and vows. I will seek and speak forgiveness because I want to live by the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

• I declare love and self-control over my thoughts, words, and actions. Where I once saw death from my words, I will now see life manifest throughout my relationships and works.
