Problems that are often inherited include terminal diseases, barrenness, mental disorders, poverty, failure, drug addiction, stubbornness and many, among others.

Say the following short prayer against the generational curses hanging around your head:

“Thank you God for the freedom that the crucifixion of Jesus brings. Today, I command your freedom upon my spirit, soul and body in the name of Jesus. I break every yoke of sin and ancestral curses. Your word says that whosoever the son sets free, he shall be free indeed. Therefore, I walk in the light of your glory and light from now on. Amen.”
