One thing that I've noticed is that it seems that when one is placed under a curse, they get notified in some way. It doesn't seem like people just go around completely unaware that they are cursed. I would think that if there were some curse put upon someone today, they would somehow know. So I'm thinking that if you don't know that you are cursed, you very likely aren't.
Not true. You only get
notified if you have the Spirit and can hear His voice. And if you are walking in the Spirit, a curse won't stick anyway. I know from personal experience.
James 3:
6 And the tongue is a fire, the
very world of iniquity; the tongue is set among our members as that which defiles the entire body, and sets on fire the course of
our life, and is set on fire by hell. 7 For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles and creatures of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race. 8
But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God; 10 from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing.
Even if you are filled with the Spirit you are still capable of cursing someone with the words of your mouth, but only if they deserve it. If they don't, it will not stick to them. Proverbs 26:2. "Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow, So a curse
without cause shall not alight." Unfortunately, even if they profess to be a Christian, but they are practicing sin, a curse can stick like glue, and they won't know it.
I know because I went to a counseling session at church because I was so hurt by a "friend" and also God. Because of her I lost my apartment of 9 years in Beverly Hills, and my job. Needless to say, we were no longer speaking. That is the short version. During the session I said the words, "
I just wish she would lose everything and see how if feels."
Immediately she lost her job, and her baby (from a one-night stand) became ill. For nine months she couldn't find another job and had to depend on friends to pay her bills.
One day the Lord spoke to me and told me I had placed a curse on S____, and that is why she was in such a state. Even though we were no longer friends, I called her and told her the Lord just showed me I had placed a curse on her, wishing she would lose everything to see how if feels, and I needed to go over to her place and remove it immediately. She agreed, and I went to her place and I had her sit in a chair at the table and I placed my hand on her head and prayed and asked that the curse be removed. I then prayed blessings over her, and left. Within a week she had a job and her baby got well.
Needless to say, I watch my words. Even Paul turned someone over to Satan for the destruction of their flesh. That was a curse. The destruction of the flesh is not physical death, but for them to repent and receive a new nature.
