Prayer Points To Counter Battle Against First Child

Last Updated on June 8, 2021 by Pastor Ikechukwu Chinedum

Today we will be dealing with prayer points to counter battle against first child. As a first child of the family, there are numerous challenges that one will face. First children as expected to shoulder the responsibility of the family when their parents grow old. The responsibility on them also bring about different battles that arises against them. Also, there are some families that there is an ancestral protocol of how the life of a first child will be.

For instance, in the lineage of Abraham, something is peculiar to all first child, they are not always successful as much as their brothers. When. Abraham went in with Sarah’s maiden and begat Ishmael, the covenant of God was not with Ishmael. In fact, God doesn’t regard Ishmael as one of Abraham’s children. The covenant of God was upon the life of Isaac. Also, when Isaac gave birth. He begat Esau and Jacob. Esau was the eldest while Jacob was the younger one. When their father was to bless them, Jacob through a dubious means inherited the blessings of their father, while Esau was left with nothing.

The original plan of Isaac was to change the narratives about first child in the lineage of Abraham. He wanted to bless Esau. However, with the help of Rebekah their mother, the blessing went to Jacob. The bible recorded that Esau begged his father to also pray for him after Jacob had stolen the blessing. Unfortunately, Isaac told Esau that I have made your brother Lord over you. Genesis 27:37-40 Isaac answered Esau, “I have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants, and I have sustained him with grain and new wine. So what can I possibly do for you, my son?” Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, my father!” Then Esau wept aloud. His father Isaac answered him, “Your dwelling will be away from the earth’s richness, away from the dew of heaven above. You will live by the sword and you will serve your brother. But when you grow restless, you will throw his yoke from off your neck.”

When it was Jacob’s time, he cursed his first child Reuben. The bible recorded that Reuben had lie with his father’s wife. Genesis 49:1-4 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch. Jacob specifically told Reuben that he shall not excel in life. The travails if every first child in the lineage of Abraham continued.

Similarly, in our lives, there are some families where the first children don’t excel in life. There are families where the first children die when they get to a certain age. This explains why you must pray fervently as the first child of your family. I decree by the authority of heaven, every battle that has been assigned against every first child of your family, they are broken before you in the name of Jesus. By the authority of heaven, no battle shall overcome you in the name of Jesus. God shall raise you far above every generational curse that works against the growth and development of first children in your family in the name of Jesus.

Prayer Points:

• Lord, I thank you for your grace, I thank you for your protection over my life. The scripture says be worry for nothing but in everything through supplication, prayers and thanksgivings make your request known to God. Lord I magnify you because you are God over my life, Lord, let your name be exalted in the name of Jesus. 
• Lord , I break every curse over my life as the first child of the family. I destroy every curse that work against every first child in the family. I decree over my life that such curses lose their power in the name of Jesus. 
• Lord, every demonic covenant that works against every first child in my family, I cancel you today by the authority of heaven. By the reason of the blood that was shed on the cross of Calvary, I cancel every form of covenant working against me in the name of Jesus. 
• For it has been written, Christ has freed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, because cursed is he that is hanged on the tree. I free myself from every generational curse in the name of Jesus. 
• I stand on the word of God that says I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” I stop every curse over my life in the name of Jesus. Every gathering of battle against my life is scattered by the fire of the Holy Ghost, in the name of Jesus. 
• The scripture also made me understand that we have been given a name that is above all other names that at the mention of the name every knee must bow and every tongue must confess that Jesus is Lord. I decree in the name of Jesus, every agent of the enemy that gives report in the coven of darkness about me, fall to death today in the name of Jesus. 
• For it has been written For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death, I speak my freedom into existence in the name of Jesus. From today, I’m free from any generational curse or battle that cripple every first child in my family, I decree my freedom from you today in the name of Jesus.
