Standing On No-Curse Ground

Genesis 8:4
4
Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

For 40 days and 40 nights, it rained so hard that the whole world perished, except for Noah and those who were with him in the ark. At the end of 150 days, Noah’s ark rested on the mountains of Ararat, on the 17th day of the seventh month.

In Hebrew, the word Ararat means “the curse is reversed”. The waters of judgment receded, causing the ark to rest on the mountains of Ararat, on new ground, where the curse is reversed. And it happened on the 17th day of the seventh month, on the Feast of First Fruits, the exact date Jesus rose from the dead 4,000 years later!

When Christ rose from the dead, we, too, were raised together with Him. (Colossians 2:12). We, who are in Christ our true ark, stand on resurrection ground where the curse has been reversed. (Galatians 3:13) Today, we stand on no-curse ground, where sicknesses and diseases, poverty and lack, difficulties and failures, cannot operate!

A church member shared how God delivered him from cervical spondylosis, a medical condition which causes the neck section of the spinal cord to deteriorate. An X-ray taken four to five years back showed that that area of his spinal cord was deteriorating fast. He was in pain and had to take medicine to manage the condition. Whenever he had a relapse, he would get depressed.

During the latest relapse, he went to the doctor, had another X-ray taken and was given some medication. He took the medication, believing God for healing. The following morning, the pain in his neck was gone and he was able to turn his head.

When he finally collected his X-ray results a week later, his doctor actually told him that his spinal cord looked better than his own! The doctor was very surprised because patients with this condition usually don’t get better. God had reversed the curse of cervical spondylosis for him!

As a believer, you are on no-curse ground. You stand in the blessing zone where it is very easy for the blessings of God to rain all over you, and even cause an overflow!
