Sins of Ancestors’ Prayers

Ancestors’ Sins Renunciation & Affirmation
(see Exodus 20:5, 34:6-7 and Deut 5:9)

I am a child of God purchased by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, I here and now

renounce and repudiate all the sins of my ancestors. I have been delivered from the

power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God’s dear Son. I cancel out all

demonic working that has been passed on to me from my ancestors. I have been

crucified with Jesus Christ and raised to walk in newness of life. I cancel every curse

that may have been put upon me. I announce to Satan and all his forces that Christ

became a curse for me when He hung on the cross. I have been crucified and raised

with Christ and now sit with Him in heavenly places. I renounce any and every way in

which Satan may claim ownership of me through the sins of my ancestors. I declare

myself to be eternally and completely signed over and committed to the Lord Jesus

Christ. All this I do in the name and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ.

(Romans 6:4, Galatians 2:20, 3:13, Ephesians 1:7, 2:5-6, Colossians 1:13)
