THE BLOOD OF JESUS CLEANSES YOU FROM ALL SIN AND GUILT (1 JOHN 1:7). JESUS IS THE DELIVERER!!
Iniquities are different than the sins of our fathers. An iniquity would be a sin that is committed over and over such as getting drunk time and time again; committing adultery again and again; stealing, lying, taking drugs; until it becomes a habit or the person not being able to control the sinning.
The sins of our fathers would be if our great, great grandfather committed adultery or stole something or got drunk, etc. The sins were committed but they were not habitual.
Leviticus 26:40 - 42
40) But if they confess their own and their fathers' iniquity in their treachery which they committed against Me - and also that because they walked contrary to Me,
41) I also walked contrary to them and brought them into the land of their enemies - if then their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they then accept the punishment for their iniquity,
42) Then will I [earnestly] remember My covenant with Jacob, My covenant with Isaac, and My covenant with Abraham, and [earnestly] remember the land.

7) Keeping mercy and loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but Who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children's children, to the third and fourth generation.
Numbers 14:18
18) The Lord is long-suffering and slow to anger, and abundant in mercy and loving-kindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and fourth generation.
Deuteronomy 5:9
9) You shall not bow down to them (graven images) or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,

10) And when you tell these people all these words and they inquire of you, Why has the Lord decreed all this enormous evil against us? Or, What is our iniquity? Or, What is the sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?
11) Then you shall say to them, [It is] because your fathers have forsaken Me, says the Lord, and have walked after other gods and have served and worshiped them and have forsaken Me and have not kept My law.
17) For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, neither is their iniquity concealed from My eyes.
18) First [before I bring them back to their land] I will doubly recompense and punish them for their iniquity and their sin, because they have polluted My land with the carcasses of their detestable idols and with the abominable things offered to false gods with which they have filled My inheritance.
Isaiah 53:5
5) But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for out guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole.
Confess, Repent and Ask Forgiveness
Father, I confess, repent and ask your forgiveness on behalf of myself, my ancestors going back to Adam and Eve and all spouses, ex-spouses and all sex partners for the sin and iniquity of ___________________________. (Adultery, addiction, idolatry, etc.)
Break the curses
Father, in Jesus' Name, I break and loose myself from the curse of _____________. (Adultery, addiction, idolatry, etc.)
Drive out the demons
In Jesus' Name, I command the demons associated with the curse of _____________ to come out of me. (Also, be specific on the names of the demons as the Lord leads you.)
Leviticus 26:40-42 "But if they confess their own and their fathers' iniquity in their treachery which they committed against Me - and also that because they walked contrary to Me, I also walked contrary to them and brought them into the land of their enemies - if then their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they then accept the punishment for their iniquity, Then will I [earnestly] remember My covenant with Jacob, My covenant with Isaac, and My covenant with Abraham, and [earnestly] remember the land."
Exodus 34:7 "Keeping mercy and loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but Who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children's children, to the third and fourth generation."
The Word of God speaks of confessing the iniquities of our ancestors. The Lord says that their iniquities are passed down to the third and fourth generations. That's 160 years. My, my, what were our ancestors doing 160 years ago? I don't have any idea. So to be safe I confess their iniquities as well as my own.
An iniquity is a sin that is committed over and over such as getting drunk time and time again; committing adultery again and again; stealing, lying, taking drugs; until it becomes a habit and the person is not able to control himself. The sins of our fathers would be if our great, great grandfather committed adultery or stole something or got drunk, etc. The sins were committed but they were not habitual or addictive.
If alcoholism is a problem in your family, then an iniquity is involved. If heart disease, cancer, mental illness, adultery, lawlessness, etc. are a problem in your family line then there is an iniquity there.
Father, in JESUS' Name, I confess, repent and ask your forgiveness on my behalf and on the behalf of my ancestors going back 10 generations for the iniquity of (idolatry, witchcraft, adultery, incest, bitterness, unforgiveness, etc.) Amen.
Then break the curse of the iniquity and cast the demons OUT in JESUS' Name.
