Do Humans Have The Ability To Bless Or Curse Others? by BedLam: 9:22am On Feb 03, 2013
Greetings! I have heard of people lamenting and blaming their life because they think they ve been cursed one way or the other. on the other hand, people rest their life on the shoulders of some people who they may change their cause in life.........aren't we mere an ordinary humans? can we really bless and curse people? if so, how come? what's behind this cause blessings and curses are mere words we can just shrug off.

Humans have the power and God gave them, he said the death and life are in the power of the tongue. The blessings passed from abraham to isaac to jacob(israel) worked because humans can do that. David cursed the wisdom of ahitophel, it worked. Jacob cursed reuben, it worked until moses destroyed the curse. However, the bible says the curse causeless shall not stand.

Yes. There is a trick however. It works only if you believe.
It is wasteful to bless or curse an unbeliever.

Ahitophel wasn't there when David cursed him, but it worked. There was a guy who got cheated by an unbeliever in business. He felt so bad about it and he went on a three day fast that God should vindicate him and God answered. By the time God started dealing with the unbeliever ahn? The christian guy had to go back on his knees and ask God for mercy for the guy. In law, there is a saying that ignorance of the law is no excuse for crime. Don't deceive yourself that cause you don't believe, it won't work.

I don't think so, if humans have the ability, why are our leaders not bent over double with heavy burdens after the millions of curse words flying their way every minute?

Gbam!


So many mothers and fathers have cursed them, but they are still thriving. We will never free ourselves of this archaic mentality. No one can claim that "blessings" work. Nigerians can't---and shouldn't---claim that, because if they did, the logical question will then be, "Why is the country still in disarray?"

Personally, i dont want to know whether human have power or not, all i want is to be blessed, no one should curse me or my kids or my loved ones, whether it comes to pass or not, that is not my concern, but, pls, all i want is to be blessed.
May God help us all.

Not all humans have the ability to bless or curse. Only those who are financially buoyant can bless or curse. Money speaking forget talent or jazz.

You are making sense. Same goes to blessing cool. Your heart shall be pure.

When a man/woman who live rightly cry, as in CRY to God whole heartedly to God....Better watch out fellas.

If you believe in curses,then you must agree that you're already cursed as a black person;

(Genesis ch.9 v.20-27)...And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
And he said, "Cursed be Canaan! A servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren."
And he said, "Blessed be the LORD God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.”
Now Ham (Kam > Kamit) is the biblical ancestor of black people, it is irrefutable judging by the genealogy that is given by the bible; (Genesis ch.10 v.6)
“And the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim, and Punt and Canaan.''It was the same reason that was used to justify the Sub Saharan slave trade by the Arabs and the Trans Atlantic slave trade by the Europeans
See why I keep screaming..Black man,emancipate yourselves from mental slavery!

Remember Nero, the fiddling emperor?

When he sent assassins to kill his mum (Agrippina Jnr), the mum said the killers should stab her in the same womb she used to conceive Nero.

Now we all know what happened to Nero's life.

Curse, even unspoken one can have a huge effect.

But it doesn't mean any dick & MANLINESS can just curse anybody anyhow with effect. The accursed has to be guilty of something against the person cursing him/her.

The question is wrongly framed in my opinion....


Humans do have the ability to do what can bring curses on them, without anybody having to curse them......


You beating your parents is a good example... They don't need to curse you, you already cursed...
