NO ONE CAN CURSE YOU

Numbers 23:8 How can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce those whom the LORD has not denounced?

The people of Israel had become a strong force to reckon with. Many nations had been conquered on their way to the promise land.

Therefore fear had fallen on the surrounding nations including Balak, the ruler of Moab.

Numbers 22:3 says and Moab was terrified because there were so many people. Indeed, Moab was filled with dread because of the Israelites.

Therefore Balak sought the oracle of Ballam to come release a curse on Israel so that by the impact of the curse, Israel will be weakened and become vulnerable.

But when Ballam came and received the message, it was straight and concise; how can I curse those whom the Lord has not cursed?

In other words, God's approval activates the functionality of a curse but I have good news for you this morning.

The goodnews is that God has not cursed you. He became a curse by hanging on the tree so that we might become possessors of the blessings of Abraham.

Listen, I came with the sure word from heaven that no man can curse whom the Lord has not cursed including you and I.

For you are the apple of God's eye, accepted in the beloved, clothed in the glory of his name.

May be a man, a family member, even a "supposed man of God" has released a curse on you that you will not make it in life.

But let me announce to you that such negative utterances are mere oil drops in the oceans.

He says in blessing I will bless you and in multiplying I will multiply you and by the covenant mandate of the blessedness of Jesus, you are blessed beyond measure.

Consequently, blessed one, may the Lord answer you in distress, may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

May he give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed. May he grant you support from his sanctuary and from Zion where his glory dwells.

This is the more reason why you have to step out in style this morning as you gently walk to that office, school, church, project site cause only one thing we know....

YOU ARE TOO BLESSED TO BE CURSED
YOU ARE TOO DRESSED TO BE STRESSED
YOU ARE SO LIFTED TO BE TILTED......SELAH

SONG
I have no other God but you
I have no other God but you
You have done what no man has done
You will do what no man can do
