Mark 11:14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard him say it.

In Mark 11 Jesus cursed the fig tree because it did not bear, or produce, fruit. Producing fruit is symbolic for producing positive results.

There is a lesson we can learn from this passage of scripture. Whatever is not yielding positive results in our lives, God has given us the ability to bind and loose, bless or curse. In our case, we can literally curse the lack of finances, the lack of employment, or the lack of whatever we desire. Just like the fig tree, once we curse these things, we should expect them to shrivel up and die.

I encourage you to curse anything you don’t desire in your life and call the things you do desire to pass.

Mark 11:20 In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots. 21 Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”
