Each and every day we must strive to give life to others and to bring life into situations instead of taking life away from others. When we make the decision to give life, then we will be blessed. When we make the decision to take away life, then the curse will gain access. Let's take a spiritual example of how this concept operates.
As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
- Proverbs 26:1-2 (KJV)
In the first verse of Proverbs Chapter 26, it states that whenever a foolish person is promoted to a place of leadership, then that foolish person will never become an honorable person. The result of placing a fool in a leadership position is listed in the second verse of Proverbs Chapter 26. The curse gains access throughout the land when a foolish person is granted leadership.
In verse 2, the word curse is used as a noun. Here is the definition of the word curse when it is used as a noun.
1 the expression of a wish that misfortune, evil, doom, etc., befall a person, group, etc.
2 a formula or charm intended to cause such misfortune to another.
3 the act of reciting such a formula.
From the definition of the word, the curse that arises is like a formula or an algorithm that is devised to bring about destruction. Choose to do well so that nothing will be concocted against you.
