There are no generational curses in your family. But there are generational bad habits. Your grandfather got money and married a second wife. Your father got cash and bought a second car. You hammered and bought a second iPhone. Your lineage buys liabilities instead of assets! Change your bad lineage habits. The biggest reason why most families experience generational poverty in their lineage is that from generation to generation, their lineage focuses on how to MAKE MONEY. Read the Parable of The Talents. Christ taught us that Wealth only comes by MULTIPLYING MONEY. - Reno Omokri 

What are your thoughts on it? Do you agree with him, I will like to know your opinion in the comment section. 

There's an Africa proverb that goes like this "pikin weh never go outside, go think say na him papa juju strong pass" (We are limited by our environment and we usually think another environment isn't better than ours). 

In Africa, we believe in generational curse too much and we think every misfortune that comes our way are a consequence of our forefather's actions in the past, so we will start moving from alter to alter seeking a way to clean the land, this is one of the reasons Africans are so religious and we still have low development, imagine a whole country waiting on God to save them by going to church to pray like a week or months for a better leader when we all can just get our PVC (Permanent Voters Card) to vote for the person of our choice. 

A lot of people believe in generational curses and what they don't know is that generation curse can be an illusion sometimes created by your head to see what is not there, though some people have generation curse or should I covenant that their forefathers made in their time, that might be affecting them, but I believe that some people don't have generation curse, they will make the same mistake their parents and grandparents did and they will just believe that is a curse in the family forgetting that there's a saying that goes like this "those that don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it" how does someone repeating the same mistake their fathers did in the past a generation curse, just as Reno Omokri said it.

I use to believe in the generational curse and I was praying and banning it every night back then, though it wasn't every night sha, haha, I was praying against it, we went for prayers and fasting as a family to ban the generational curse, my father doesn't build a house, I and my siblings we build mansions, my father couldn't buy the car back then, I and my siblings will have cars and the good things of life, it was a prayer point for me and my siblings, all Africa home must have prayed this same prayer, lol, because is kind of common here. 

When I started following Reno Omokri, I started thinking outside the box, then I thought about the reason my father don't build, is not because he doesn't have the money back then, according to stories that I heard from the family, I wasn't born then, they said my father worked at a well-known oil company, not as one of the main workers there though, but he's salary was huge back then, he started carrying one woman then, while my mother and was still home with my two elder siblings, he had the opportunity to make us wealthy back then but he useless it on a woman who also gave him two daughters, that has been my motive ever since not to pass the same path that he took when I have the opportunity, even if the path looks updated, I still don't want to pass it, Mom always pray this prayer for us. 

My uncle (my Mother brother) ones had a big contract from a white man that visited the state, he landed a huge amount of money that was suppose to make him wealthy and never to suffer again, he spent the money on so many things that I don't know and he also bought two cars, without even thinking of investing the money into any business, even if is small business, the wife is a strong woman that is ready to hustle, he didn't open business for her, he went to buy two cars in the same month, he don't know how to drive that's what is paining me now, when the contract stop coming, things was now getting bad for him, the cars he bought developed fault and the worst part is that he didn't even buy the car to give him money by giving someone to ride and the person will balance him, he bought the car and parked it in his rented apartment, he didn't buy land to start building his house, because he thought the contract will always come and there will be enough money to build house and open a business in the future, things aren't funny for him now, he sold the cars in lesser amount because it was faulty, like how won't it be faulty when he just parked it there without even learning how to drive in the first place, car his gone and he's facing challenges now, all because he didn't plan well, someone might think is generational curse also for him not to be able to build house, when it was clearly him that did what he did by not investing his money to a business or build a house. 

How is both stories a generation curse when they don't spend with caution, they just believed that the money won't stop coming, even in the Bible when Pharaoh had a dream about the little cows swallowing the big cows, he became curious to know the meaning, does that mean he hasn't been having other dreams in the past, of course, he has been having other dreams but this one became a big burden to him that's why he made sure to know the meaning if he had sleep on it and called it just a normal nightmare do you know they would have also starved with other nations that came to buy food from them. A lot of people had hit a huge amount of money that they thought it will never be finished, but now they are back at the trench because they couldn't spend wisely and invested the money.

My on of my CL on WhatsApp posted something that got my attention and it goes like this

Peter bought a car and his friends started to congratulate him and told him that he should bless boys, Peter spent 3k$ that day

Paul bought a car and his friends was congratulating him, they told him to send his account details that they want to connect to his grace, Paul got a total amount of 3k$ from them. 

In both stories I wrote, it all tells the same thing at the end of it all "know the kind of friends you move with" some are there to run you dry, both my Dad and my uncle must have had a friend that was motivating them that more money will come from where this one came from, haha. 

Thanks for reading today with me. Please upvote me, my earning are no longer encouraging these days.

There are truly generational curses. But a lot of misfortunes are 'afowofa' 😹😹 if you're Yoruba you'll get this. It means problems we drag upon our own heads with our own hands.

80% of adults, youths especially don't know how to spend wisely and that's why they usually have a very bad ojo ale 🌝🌝😌

I enjoyed reading your article, it's unfortunate that most people are still blinded by religion dogma and theological errors. Yes, there are curses but these curses are not for everyone. Some families that exposed themselves to evil practices either for protection or to get wealth procured curses for the children of such family. However, anyone who found salvation in Christ and renewed the mind can walk away free from such courses. The light of God's word will help the person to develop new characters and behaviors that brings positive results in life.

That's true, Christ disconnects people from the generational covenant that the forefathers did in their days.
