Are Generational Curses in the Bible?

Are generational curses biblical? And if so, what should Christians know about them?

In a recent livestream, Isaiah Saldivar and Mike Signorelli discussed the topic of generational curses and how Christians can view them from a biblical perspective.

First off, Salidvar points out that simply not believing in generational curses is not enough to simply make their existence untrue. Just because someone may not believe they are real does not take away from the reality that something may have existed in a bloodline for generations.

“I think a lot of us are out of touch with reality,” says Saldivar. “I feel like a lot of pastors are out of touch, so they make up theology…just because you don’t deal with people that are in bondage doesn’t mean nobody’s in bondage.”

Saldivar cites Deuteronomy 30:19, which promises “life and death, blessing and cursing therefore choose life that both you and your seed shall live” as one of the key verses that point to the reality of generational curses. Ultimately, these sins passed down from one generation to the next can be forms bondage for those who do not try to break them.

He also quotes Exodus 34:7, which says: “He will visit the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon the children’s children until the third and the fourth generation.”

“Yes, we have forgiveness,” says Saldivar. “But there are consequences to our sin. And a lot of us want to live a consequence-less life.”

Being trapped in sin and bondage, ultimately does not affect just ourselves, but rather it also affects our children and the generations to come after us.

“It’s about the families,” Signorelli chimes in. “It’s about the bloodline.”

The two point out that generational curses are not only biblical, and that Satan wants nothing more than to destroy us and our families, but that there are practical ways to break the sins and addictions in our lives. From prayers of renunciation to these issues, Saldivar encourages others to simply change their behavior, hating the sin so much because they don’t want to pass it on to their kids.


“You have to look at this and say, ‘I’m going to change. I’m not going to wait for an altar call. I’m not going to wait for a deliverance. I’m going to change my actions so I don’t pass this down to my kids,'” he says.

While generational curses are real, we do not have to live in struggle. Through prayer, renunciation of sin and behavioral changes, we can be more than conquerors through Christ Jesus.
