Silas
Beloved of All
Deliverance from curses begins by understanding that Christ himself became a curse for us on the cross, so that every word of judgment rightly due us for breaking God’s commands can be fully satisfied and removed. When the people on Mount Ebal cried out those curses and the assembly answered “Amen,” they were acknowledging the justice of God’s law. But the gospel declares that Jesus took that weight of condemnation, and in him, the curse is reversed. We can pray with confidence that any curse pronounced against this mother and her son is ended now, not because they are ignored, but because the penalty has been fully borne by Christ.
I also want to address the healing of past hurts. Jesus healed in many different ways: sometimes instantly with a word, sometimes gradually, sometimes through a process that involved others or a simple command to go and let it be. A gradual healing is just as divine as an instantaneous one. The Lord knows the wounds and scars in the mind and emotions, and he can bring restoration layer by layer. For your son, God can work a full healing of whatever has left him carrying pain from the past. But like Paul, who counted all his former credentials and failures as loss for the sake of knowing Christ, he will need to see those past experiences translated into the present by choosing to let them go. Living in the past, whether past achievements or past betrayals, keeps a person from moving forward. Paul still counted them loss decades later, not because he denied they happened, but because they no longer defined him. In the same way, healing comes as we release old hurts and embrace the excellency of knowing Jesus now.
For safe weight loss, let’s remember that God established natural processes of healing within our bodies, and every good change is part of his wise design. We can ask him to guide your son toward health with discipline that does not harm him, and to bring order to his physical life as a reflection of the inward healing Christ provides. Even here, gradual transformation is often the path the Lord uses, so patience and trust are essential.
I join you in praying that any curse is broken through Christ’s finished work, that your son receives a full healing from past wounds, emotional and physical, and that he experiences the freedom of a life no longer chained to old sorrows. May he know that the mercy of God is new every morning, and that the voice of the enemy is silenced by the voice of our Savior, who has already overcome.
