In an interview between apostle Alexander Pagani and Bishop Alan DiDio on the Encounter Today podcast, the two got candid about deliverance and how generational curses can impact the life of a believer.
After overcoming his skepticism of deliverance ministry and seeing God do the miraculous by setting people free, Pagani says he noticed something through practicing deliverance ministry. While deliverance serves to break people free from demonic oppression, he saw the same people desiring to be delivered over and over again.
“Deliverance ministry is to get a person free and that they stay free,” Pagani says. “What I saw was deliverance idolatry of the same people coming back over and over and over. Eventually, I began to inquire again that conversation, ‘Okay, Lord, what am I doing wrong?’”
Pagani says what the Lord showed him is that these people weren’t affected by demonic oppression. Instead, they were dealing with a different spiritual battle.
“The Holy Spirit impressed upon me that their problem wasn’t a demonic issue. It was a generational curse issue that they needed to resolve between them, their bloodline and God,” Pagani says.
Pagani took five additional years to deep dive into the Scriptures about generational curses. Eventually, he ended up writing a book about it, “The Secrets to Generational Curses,” which is the sequel to his book, “The Secrets to Deliverance.”
Citing 1 John 5, Pagani says there is a spectrum of levels of sin.
“You’ve got sin, transgression, iniquity [and] abomination,” Pagani says. “The realm of iniquity, which means long-term, unrepented sin that begins to change the nature of the person, which we would call habit patterns.”

“It has nothing to do with condemnation, it’s not a salvation issue. It has to do with daily sanctification,” Pagani continues. “It’s personal daily pleasing of the Lord.”
Pagani points out that after years of walking in willful disobedience, these practices will eventually turn into iniquities. The bondage then no longer is something the person practices, but it is what they become.
One of the key verses Pagani and DiDio uncovered as a key to leaving behind generational curses is 1 John 1:9 which reads, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
“Where we mess up is Christians stop there,” Pagani says. “They never get cleansed of unrighteousness.”
How does one break a generational curse?
“It’s through fasting because now you’re denying your flesh. Now you’re dealing with the body and that’s where it starts,” Pagani says.
