These are things our parents and grandparents have passed down to us. Often, we say, \u2018It runs in my family, I can\u2019t do anything about it.\u2019 Yes, you can! You may not be able to do anything about your family\u2019s past but, by God\u2019s grace, you can change the future for yourself and your children. <\/p>\n<p>The Bible says, \u2018<i>If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new<\/i>.\u2019 (2\u00a0Corinthians\u00a05:17\u00a0NKJV) Note the words \u2018<i>in Christ<\/i>.\u2019 You can\u2019t change your family\u2019s dysfunction by yourself, but \u2018<i>in Christ<\/i>\u2019, you receive the power needed to go in a new direction.

Watch your character because it becomes your destiny.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>God told Gideon, \u2018<i>Tear down the altar of Baal that your father has..<\/i>.\u2019 (Judges\u00a06:25\u00a0NKJV) In its place, Gideon built a new altar to the Lord, and his life and that of his family were changed forever.
