Ps 20 4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
5 We will shout for joy when you are victorious
and will lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the LORD grant all your requests.
Gods judgements are absolute at all times. He holds the wicked accountable for all of the problems in this world. God cannot be responsible for the destruction of mankind. If God were forced to act in order to change His decrees of judgement then His curses would be unjust. Because God has judged man in order to prevent the destruction of His nation and elect. If God was motivated to destroy His own creation by unjust anger then He would cease to be God. This is why the wish for the full effect of the curses to be put into reality is the most protective desire that God has given to us on behalf of the world. In this way our desire for the success of all men promotes our own welfare. We are free to wish blessing on all men because God cannot fail in His absolute curses.
We believe that our anger toward in the christian community is redeemed in the laws full voice of the curse. The law was made for law breakers or it was directed to be successful toward the wicked. The more the curse flourishes the less wickedness there is in the world. Because all wickedness and blessing are decreed by God. So God allows the presence of wickedness by the great gulf of separation between His eternal government and the governments of this world. In Gods eternal government every sin and sinner is destroyed. God is absolutely just at all times and sees the beginning of time to the end of time in one view. God is not subject to time because time is temporal and finite. God does not live in a world of process or parts. Without Gods absolute judgements decreed by Him in one view we would all be hopelessly dependent upon each other to prevent destruction that results from sin. This means that we would always be unable to experience security and wholeness. In this sense we live in a world were we are allowed to exist in who we are by Gods decrees.
This is why the curses are Gods preventing destruction .And the blessing are Gods allowance of beauty, wholeness, and health. We are able to enjoy our wish for blessing because the God is absolutely just at all times. The curses prevent the wicked from destroying the righteous and they prevent the righteous from being able to destroy their brothers in the works scheme. Gods grace prevents us from the unpardonable sin of being a traitor. So the curses hem us in because their defense is without duplicity. They withhold the evil that could prevent us from the image of the new man. So we are always enlarged to wish blessing over cursing.
