Breaking the curse of poverty

Bible Reading: 1 Chronicle 4:9-10

“And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez saying because I bare him with sorrow.

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me, indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.”

Unfortunately, many children of God are under the curse of poverty, and they are bearing Christians names, going to fellowship even participating in fasting and prayers and other related activities in the church. Living under the curse of poverty has nothing to do with your age, tribe, language or status.

A curse of poverty is a curse that has killed many businesses while many people are living abject poverty. Breaking the curse of poverty is a prayer of deliverance for everyone under the bondage of poverty. Many are working as an elephant but eating like a rat.

Jabez was ordained and set apart from his mother’s womb to be great and lives a prosperous life, but he inherited a curse of poverty when his mother gave birth to him. Jabez’ mother cursed him as a result of the circumstance and situation during his birth, and he was a curse with sorrow. What a terrible incident from a mother to his son!

“…and his mother called his name Jabez saying because I bare him with sorrow.” 1 Chronicle 4:9b

Jabez grow with the curse of poverty until he realized that he was not born to this world to be poor, rather he exists to be prosperous and a blessing to others. He discovered that he was under a curse of poverty and there is a need for him to be delivered.

“And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me, indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.” 1 Chronicle 4:10

Beloved, you too may be in the same position with Jabez – you are born to be great, but you’re living a poor life. You have been dream seeing yourself in a glorious form but you’re a borrower. You know that you have full potentials to become great and glorious, but every step you take results in failure and backwardness. All these and others related are happening to you because you are under a curse of poverty like Jabez.

The curse of poverty can be invoked into someone’s life:

• From the womb by the enemy’
• On a naming day,
• Through the first water, they take bath as well as the soap,
• It can be invoked through the hands that took you from birth,
• The voice spoke into your life on the day you are born,

The curse of poverty can be inherited:

• From the parent or family bloodline, or boss
• Friendship and association – Proverbs 28:19
• Exchange or spending money,
• Disobedience to the ordinances and principles of God – Proverbs 13:18, Deuteronomy 28:1-end
• Stingless and lack of giving – Proverbs 11:24

The way out from the curse of poverty:

Breaking the curse of poverty is the solution to be free from your reckless and abject living. And this can be done through the name and blood of Jesus Christ.

“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, ye for your sake He became poor, that ye through His poverty might be rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:9

Fervently and violently pray unto God for deliverance. Jabez prayed unto God, and he was delivered more than expected. 1 Chronicles 4:10, Matthew 7:7.
