Read something negative about curses and am discouraged

[Lady Bug]

Hi, I have a book called An Exorcist Tells His Story by Father Gabriel Amorth. In the book he is kind of negative on the subject of curses. He reflected on their power to destroy lives even on those who are practicing Christians (if I'm not mistaken). I'm like, what's the point of it all, then?

I remember my mom telling me when I was young, that someone from Pakistan put a curse on my brother (when my mom visited Pakistan, my brother was four years old). I don't remember who it was. There are certain elements of misfortune in his life that I do find highly unusual, but I don't know if it's just circumstantial, but I'm starting to wonder, if someone put a curse on him, then could someone have done this to me too? I am kind of suffering the same sorts of things as he is, and I wonder if it's just a coincidence.

The bible says, be alert and sober the devil is like a roaring lion looking who to devour, which resist firmly in the faith.
Yes bad people can put curses on others, it actually happened to me, that is why 'spiritual warfare' exists,
to resist and be free of works of the enemy.
Watch Derek Prince if you would wish, i think he was a good deliverance minister.

I found this:

The Church teaches that a person cannot have the power to inflict harm through a verbal curse alone, as only God has such power.
