Key Discussion Points and Insights
Spiritual Growth and Self-Reliance in Faith
[00:22-04:10]
- Faith is nurtured by feeding one’s spirit; you don’t become fully mature in God overnight.
- The goal is for believers to develop personal faith so they don’t have to depend on others for prayer or guidance.
- Quote (Keith Moore, 02:05):
“You don’t just—You’re born again one day, and then immediately you’re fully developed in all the things of God. No, in a lot of ways, it’s like a human infant baby... But if you will get fed things spiritually, you’ll grow quickly.”
Direct Access to God Through Jesus
[03:51-05:40]
- Believers have direct access to God through Christ, not mediated by priests or saints.
- Quote (Keith Moore, 03:58):
“We do not have to go through a priest or a pastor. We don’t have to go through a saint... by His name, we can come boldly, directly to the throne of Grace. And God will hear us... If you come not in your own merits, but come in the name of the Master, Jesus.”
God’s Nature as Provider and Overcoming Doubt
[05:41-09:05]
- Every reason for faith is founded on Scripture, not opinion.
- God is a “God of abundant provision... a good father... a rich father... who gives us richly all things to enjoy.”
- If one doesn’t know or is undecided about this reality, faith will be weak and receiving provision will be difficult.
The Curse and the Blessing — Understanding Galatians 3:13
[09:06-13:10]
- The 17th and 18th reasons for faith in provision are: the Covenant of Blessing and redemption from the curse.
- Quote (Keith Moore, 10:25):
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law. Say it out loud: Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law.” - Jesus not only bore physical suffering but also spiritual judgment (“He became a curse”) so that we wouldn’t be separated from God.
- Key point: The worst part was spiritual; “In the Spirit, he didn’t look like a human being because of that sin and that punishment and that curse.” (12:23)
Deuteronomy 28: Blessing and Curse Explained
[13:11-21:09]
- Deuteronomy 28 outlines both conditions: listening to God’s voice (brings blessing) and ignoring God (brings curse).
- In the New Testament, obedience means:
- Walking by faith
- Walking in love
- Being led by the Spirit
- Quote (Keith Moore, 15:59):
“The way we keep His commandments is by those three main: Faith, love, led by the Spirit.” - The exact opposites are listed for blessing and curses (blessed in city/field/go in/go out vs. cursed in same).
Real-Life Example: The Importance of Listening to the Spirit
[21:10-26:15]
- A woman called, distraught after being mugged, questioning why—since she confessed Psalm 91 daily—she wasn’t protected.
- Moore asked her if she had any internal warning not to go where she was going; she admitted she felt a check from the Lord, ignored it and relied on confessing Psalm 91 instead.
- Quote (Keith Moore, 23:19):
“Is it a blessing or a curse that she got mugged? That’s a curse... If it’s in the curse, it can never be the will of God. Oh, come on. Are y’all listening to me?” - The importance: Confession is not a substitute for obedience and being led; protection lies in listening to God, not just repeating promises.
Central Truth: The Curse Can Never Be God’s Will
[23:44-27:19]
- Anything included in the curse (loss, lack, sickness, etc.) is never God’s will for anyone—ever.
- Disobedience (not listening) is the root reason people experience the curse.
- Quote (Keith Moore, 25:25):
“If you won’t do what He tells you to do, you could wind up experiencing some curse that you’ve already been redeemed from.”
Practical Application: Determine to Be a Listener
[27:20-27:54]
- Repeated exhortation: “I will listen. I will listen.”
- Prayer for “ears to hear and a heart that can understand.”
Sickness and All Kinds of Trouble Are Part of the Curse
[27:55-28:03]
- All manner of sickness and disease, even unnamed ones, are listed in the curse.
- If it’s part of the curse, then believers are redeemed from it—it’s never God’s will.
Memorable Quotes & Moments
- [10:25] “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law. Say it out loud: Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law.”
- [15:59] “The way we keep His commandments is by those three main: Faith, love, led by the Spirit.”

Summary: The Takeaway
Keith Moore’s central message is that, as believers, we are scripturally redeemed from everything in the curse of the law, which includes lack, loss, and sickness. The blessing is available to those who walk by faith, love, and listen to the Spirit—but living in the fullness of provision depends on being a “listener.” If we ignore or override the Spirit’s leading, we may still experience the curse, not because it’s God’s will, but because we forfeited His guidance. Moore urges every believer to declare, “I will listen,” and to recognize: If it’s in the curse, it’s never God’s will for you.
