READ: Philippians 4:11-19
“...In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33
Inasmuch as human beings are trying to develop and help themselves, you will realize that frustrations abound everywhere.
Many prevailing conditions have spiritual roots, and that is why they must be dealt with spiritually. That is why you need God to break through in this life! Never-ending problems are often rooted in a curse. The whole world is cursed to struggle and sweat in order to survive. It is something that will not just go away. Christians must understand that there are curses at work in the earth.
There is what I call a global curse. Adam was cursed to sweat and struggle in order to survive. The earth was cursed to bring forth painful thorns and thistles for Adam’s children.
This curse affects all people and that is why God said to Eve in Genesis 3:13, “What is this that thou hast done?” This curse has sentenced us all to years of very hard work in order to survive. No part of the human race is exempt from this curse. That explains why we all have to toil and labour for most of our lives.
This curse came about at the origin of the human race. The existence of these curses makes it necessary for us to apply wisdom and spiritual strength to have victory and unbeatable prosperity in this life.
