SOURCE - How to Break a Generational Curse
NOTE - While there are verses which say that God will visit the sins of the fathers unto the children to the third and fourth generation, in both Jeremiah 31:29-30 and Ezekiel 18:1-9 God revoked this.
Jeremiah 31:29-30
29 “In those days, it will no longer be said:
‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
and the teeth of the children are set on edge.’30 Instead, each will die for his own iniquity. If anyone eats the sour grapes, his own teeth will be set on edge.
The reason is because of the New Covenant God made through His Son Jesus Christ.
Jeremiah 31:31-34
31 Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD,
when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel
and with the house of Judah.32 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their fathers
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of the land of Egypt—
a covenant they broke,
though I was a husband to them,g”
declares the LORD.33 “But this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel
after those days, declares the LORD.
I will put My law in their minds
and inscribe it on their hearts.
And I will be their God,
and they will be My people.34 No longer will each man teach his neighbor or his brother,
saying, ‘Know the LORD,‘
because they will all know Me,
from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD.
For I will forgive their iniquities
and will remember their sins no more.”
Ezekiel 18:1-9
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2 “What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel:
‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
and the teeth of the children are set on edge’?3 As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, you will no longer quote this proverb in Israel. 4 Behold, every soul belongs to Me; both father and son are Mine. The soul who sins is the one who will die.
5 Now suppose a man is righteous and does what is just and right:
6 He does not eat at the mountain
or look to the idols of the house of Israel.
He does not defile his neighbor’s wife
or approach a woman during her period.7 He does not oppress another,
but restores the pledge to the debtor.
He does not commit robbery,
but gives his bread to the hungry
and covers the naked with clothing.8 He does not engage in usury
or take excess interest,
but he withholds his hand from iniquity
and executes true justice between men.9 He follows My statutes
and faithfully keeps My ordinances.
That man is righteous;
surely he will live,
declares the Lord GOD.

Battle Prayer to Break Generational Curse Line
Father,
In the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I now approach Your throne on a very serious matter. I know You know what has been happening to me with all of these demons attacking me from time to time.
Father, in Jesus name, I want to let You know right now that I have had enough of these demonic attacks and I want to end it right now!
- Father, after examining my life and the background I have grown up in – I believe these demons may be coming from and originating from my natural father. I believe that my natural father has demons on him, and for whatever reason, some of these demons have chosen to come after me as a result of my natural father-child relationship that I had at one time with my father.
I do not believe these demons have any legal right to be coming directly after me like they have been doing – but where their legal rights may be coming from is my father.
I do not know exactly what sins or transgressions my father may have committed against You to give these demons the legal right to attach themselves to him like they have done.
But whatever their legal rights are to attach themselves to my father – I now want to come against those legal rights and fully break all of them in the name of Jesus Christ.
These legal rights have now been giving some of these demons some kind of opening to be able to come directly after me like they have been doing for quite a number of years.
- Father, in the name of Jesus, the first thing I want to do is to fully confess the sins of my father directly to You. Even though I do not know what all of them are at this time, I know that You do, and I want to confess them before You as a result of what Your Word has told us to do on this kind of matter.
Your Word says in the Book of Leviticus:
Leviticus 26:40, 42
But if they confess their iniquity and THE INIQUITY OF THEIR FATHERS, with their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, and that they also have walked contrary to Me … then I will remember My covenant with Jacob, and My covenant with Isaac and My covenant with Abraham I will remember …
Father, in the name of Jesus, I now confess before you all of the wrong and sinful things my father has ever done against You.
I ask that You please have mercy on his soul and that you make a strong and mighty move on him to get him saved and cleaned up before it is too late for him to ever be able to do this with You.
Father, I also know that my dad’s father was an abortionist who had performed thousands of abortions. As a result, he too may have drawn demons on him and they may have them attached themselves to my own father, as Your Word tells us that the sins and iniquities of the fathers can go down as far as 3 or 4 generations of future children.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I now want to fully confess the sins of my dad’s father for all of the abortions that he had ever performed. I know that abortion is an evil, heinous sin and abomination in Your sight, and I ask that You also have mercy on his soul on his day of judgment with You.
Father, I also want to let You personally know that I am willing to fully forgive my father for whatever he has done to me in my past. I know at one time he tried to strangle me when I was just a young child.
Again, I fully forgive him for all of these atrocious and evil acts, and I will hold no animosity or any kind of unforgiveness towards him. I know that all final judgment rests solely in Your hands and that You will be His final judge when all is finally said and done.
- Father, in Jesus name, I know that some of my father’s past sins and transgressions have opened up the door for these demons to be able to come into his life and attach themselves to him.
As a result of this attachment, I believe that some of these demons have been jumping from him onto me trying to attack me and sever my spiritual connection that I have with You. I believe that I may be dealing with some kind of curse line the way these demons have been attacking me over all of these years.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I now want to come against this curse line and finally break it once and for all!
Father, in Your Word, You have told us:
Luke 10:19
Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over ALL the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you
Father, Your Word has told us in Matthew 10:1 and Mark 6:7 that we would have Your power and Your authority to be able to cast out all demons and unclean spirits.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I now want to take the authority You have given to us from the above three verses to trample over all of the power of my enemies, and to cast out any demons and unclean spirits who are attempting to come against me.
Father, in the name of Jesus, operating under Your full power and Your full authority – I now take full authority over this curse line and break every single part of this curse line that these demons may be feeding and operating on.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I now break each and every part of this evil curse line. Father, in the name of Jesus, I command it to be fully broken right now – now and forevermore! I repeat, I now command every single inch of this curse line to be completely broken and completely severed right now in the name of Jesus Christ!
Father, I now believe that the curse line that has been existing between my father and I has now been fully broken, and these demons will no longer have any more legal right to continue to attack me like they have been doing.
- Father, as a result of my father being my natural father, I also realize that there may be an unhealthy and ungodly soul tie that may have developed between the two of us that these demons may be feeding and operating on. Even though he is my natural father, he does not own me, nor do I belong to him. I belong to only You and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Father, in Jesus name, I now ask that You completely break any ungodly and unhealthy soul ties that might exist between my father and I that these demons may be feeding and operating on.
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ – I now command that any and all soul ties between me and my father be completely broken right now! I repeat – I now command that any soul ties that may exist between my father and I be completely broken and completely severed right now in the name of Jesus Christ!

Battle Command to Drive Out the Demons
Battle Command to Drive Out Demons
Father, I now want to come against every single demon that has been attacking me over all of these years.
Father, You have said in Your Word that the sword of the Holy Spirit is Your Word. Father, in Jesus name, let Your Word be my Sword! Father, I repeat, let Your Word be my Sword so that I can drive these demons off me once and for all!
(HOLD OUT YOUR RIGHT HAND DURING THIS NEXT PART)I am now speaking to any and all demons who have attached themselves to either me or my father over all of these years.
Demons, I know that you have been on my father for a number of years. I also know that you have all been attempting to come against me as a result of the legal rights my father has given you.
However, I have done nothing wrong in the sight of my God and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I have not given any of you any kind of legal right to be attacking me like you have been doing over all of these years. I know that you have all been feeding off a curse line that my own father has allowed to be set up with his sins and transgression against my Lord and Savior.
But all of this is going to end right now! I repeat, in the name of Jesus Christ, all of this is going to end right now!
I have gone before God the Father and have fully confessed all of the sins and transgressions of my father directly to Him. His life, and the judgment on his life, has now been fully committed into the hands of God the Father.
I have also fully confessed out all of the sins of my dad’s father who was an abortionist.
Demons, in the name of of Jesus Christ, I have now taken the full authority, the full power, and the full anointing of God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ to fully break, once and for all, every single piece of this curse line that has formed out between me and my father.
I repeat – as a born-again child of God the Father, I have now taken full authority over this evil curse line and I have completely broken and completely severed every single part of it in the name of Jesus Christ!
There is now nothing left between me and my father. You thus no longer have any further legal rights to continue to follow, harass, or attack me as you have been doing over all of these years!
Father, I now plead the Blood of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ over every inch of my body, over every inch of my soul, and over every inch of my spirit as a full protective covering. I now plead the Blood of Jesus over this entire house – from top to bottom, from side to side, from front to rear.
I now plead the Blood of Jesus over my mother Judy, over my sister Mary, over my brother Tommy, and over my mom’s boyfriend Jonathan.
Demons, you have also attacked my mother Judy and her boyfriend Jonathan in the past. This too now will end!
I have now fully covered every single one of my family members with the Blood of Jesus Christ – and you will never, ever attempt to come against anyone of us ever again. I repeat – you are to never, ever attempt to come against anyone of us ever again!
Demons – in the name of Jesus Christ – I now plead the Blood of Jesus against each and everyone of you! I repeat, I now plead the blood of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ against each and every one of you. Your strongholds and your curse lines have now been fully broken, fully severed, and fully demolished by the power of the Holy Spirit! There is now nothing else left for any of you to hold onto!
Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ – I now command you to leave me, this house, my mother Judy, my brother Tommy, my sister Mary and my mother’s boyfriend Jonathan!
Demons, go now – in the name of Jesus Christ! I repeat – go now in the name of Jesus Christ and be forever banished from our presence!
Father, I now fully believe that You have driven every single one of these demons out of our life for good. I have full faith and belief that the victory is now ours.
Thank You Father.
Thank You Jesus.
Thank You Holy Spirit.
