READ: Isaiah 13:9-12

And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. – Isaiah 13:11

A curse is a proclamation that is made against you. These words have great power to effect a series of happenings in your life. One of the reasons why curses have such power is because they are legal declarations that are often punishments or judgments for genuine errors, mistakes or sins you have committed. A punishment is something that you deserve.

And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, THEN I WILL PUNISH YOU seven times more FOR YOUR SINS.
Leviticus 26:18

A curse is a declaration which affects you mightily. When a declaration is made by a judge, it will affect you greatly. I have a friend who was tried in court for various offences. Eventually, the judge told my friend, “You will go to prison for nine years.” That declaration was so powerful that it changed the life of my friend forever. Instead of going home to his wife and children, he was carried away to live with criminals. The judge’s words were enforced by the police, the army, the prison service, the secret service, the Special Forces, the immigration service, the military police and Interpol. The curse of going to prison for nine years was declared by the judge and enforced by all these powers. But there was a reason, a cause for which this declaration was made. My friend had done something that made a judge declare this curse. The curse always has a cause. This is how a curse comes about. It does not come out of a vacuum. It comes for a reason. It has a legal basis. It is enforced by many unseen powers.

As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so THE CURSE CAUSELESS SHALL NOT COME. Proverbs 26:2
