Faith School (Audio) with Keith Moore
Episode: Week 155.4 - Faith For Provision: Reason #18: Redeemed From The Curse - III (Thu)
Date: October 2, 2025
Overview
In this episode, Brother Keith Moore continues his Bible-based teaching series on "Faith for Provision." He focuses on Reason #18: Redeemed From The Curse, expounding on why it is always God's will for believers to walk in "abundant provision." Through a close look at Deuteronomy 28 and Galatians 3:13-14, Brother Moore teaches that Christians have been redeemed from the curse of the law—including sickness, poverty, and lack—and should never accept these as God's will. The class emphasizes spirit development, knowing God's will from Scripture (not tradition or confusion), and boldly rejecting anything the Bible labels a curse.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
The Priority of Feeding the Spirit
- [00:22] Keith Moore welcomes listeners, stating Faith School is for spiritual growth, not merely bodily or mental development.
- He contrasts society’s focus on intellect and athletics with biblical instruction to strengthen the inner man (spirit), referencing 3 John 2:
“The thing is, weak spirit, weak inner man means weak faith, because it's with the heart, with the inner man, that you believe.” (Keith Moore, 02:15)
Provision—God’s Will for Every Believer
- Keith continues the long-running series on God’s will for natural and material provision, refuting doctrines that claim poverty or lack can be God’s teaching tools.
- He states clarity is required regarding God’s will:
“You can't have faith for a specific thing that you are still questioning God's will about it. That results in you wondering and wavering... James said, if you're like that, don't even think you will receive anything from the Lord.” (Keith Moore, 03:35)
- The episode centers on moving from “wondering and wavering” to “being sure” by having Scriptural answers, not confusion.
Scriptural Foundation—Deuteronomy 28 and Galatians 3
- [07:00] Listeners are encouraged to revisit previous lessons and follow along in Deuteronomy 28, which lists actual blessings and curses under the Mosaic Law.
- Today, under the New Covenant, believers live by faith and are to “walk by the Spirit,” fulfilling the law through the command to love one another.
“If you love somebody... you're not going to lie to them, hurt them…all the things that the law was given…” (Keith Moore, 09:30)
The “Blessing” Side (Deuteronomy 28:1–14)
- [09:55] Moore highlights that “listening to the Lord” and “doing what he says” always results in blessing.
- The blessings listed cover all areas: in the city, field, family, finances, coming and going.
“Blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed. I never get tired of being blessed. How about you?” (Keith Moore, 11:12)
- God’s blessings become a testimony to unbelievers that He is real and good.
The “Curse” Side (Deuteronomy 28:15–68) and New Testament Reality
- [13:10] Keith exposes the error of seeing what the Bible calls a curse as somehow God’s “secret will” for His people, or as something noble or spiritual.
"If it's a curse, if the Bible calls it a curse, it could never be the will of God." (Keith Moore, 15:14)
- Jesus redeemed us from the curse (Galatians 3:13–14). If God wanted us cursed, why would Jesus redeem us?
“If it was his will for us to have the curse, he could have saved himself a lot of trouble…He went to such lengths and became a curse for us. Why? To redeem us from it.” (Keith Moore, 15:32)
Rejecting the Curse and Embracing the Blessing
- [15:52]
"Not in my life." (Audience/Keith Moore)
- Believers should immediately recognize anything from the curse (sickness, lack, destruction) and decisively reject it as not God's will:
“According to Galatians 3:13, I've been redeemed from the curse. No, this is not the will of God. And I am to resist this and oppose this, everything I have, and never accept it.” (Keith Moore, 16:00)
- Moore points out the persistence of this error among Christians worldwide and the importance of repetitive teaching—the “truth will make you free.”
Old vs. New Covenant; The Only Source of Blessing
- [21:30] Explains only the God of the Bible can truly bless; idols and false religions cannot.
- Addresses misconceptions about pluralism and inclusivity in religion:
“There's only one God. There's only one way to God, one connection mediator. And that is Jesus the Christ.” (Keith Moore, 23:15) “I believe the Bible, the Lord said…He is the way, that nobody can come to the Father except by him.” (Keith Moore, 23:30)
Standout Moments & Scripture Confessions
- [24:50] Keith reiterates Jesus healed people and did not bring sickness; every disease and sickness falls under the curse from which we are redeemed.
- Calls for listeners to claim their redemption from specific ailments:
"According to Deuteronomy 28:35, problems in the knees and legs are part of the curse...According to Galatians 3:13, I've been redeemed from the curse...so there's no way that can be God's will for me..." (Keith Moore, 26:25)
- Repeated audience affirmations:
"That's not me. The blessing is for me." (26:57)
Memorable Quotes
- On God’s Character:
“The devil is fighting actively that the goodness of God be revealed. Because he knows the goodness of God draws people to repentance.” (Keith Moore, 13:43)
- On Rejecting the Curse:
“If it's in the curse, it cannot be the will of God for me. It cannot be.” (Keith Moore, 27:10)
- On the Uniqueness of Christ:
“There's only one God and there's only one Savior. And there's only one way to heaven and glory. One, one, only.” (Keith Moore, 24:08)

Conclusion
Keith Moore’s message is crystal clear: The Bible’s definition of “curse” is never God’s will for the believer, and Jesus’s redemptive work proves it. All forms of poverty, sickness, or lack—explicitly named in Scripture as curses—should be recognized, rejected, and replaced with the blessing that comes from faith in Christ. Practically, believers are urged to fill their hearts with this truth until they instinctively reject anything resembling the curse and claim God’s abundant provision.
