Lev 26:39 “And those of you who are left shall waste away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; also in their fathers' iniquities, WHICH ARE WITH THEM, they shall waste away”.
The iniquity of your parents and your iniquity can make your life be a WASTE by the enemies of the land. The above verse said that the father's iniquities, which are with the children (Parental Cords), shall make them WASTE AWAY.
If you realise that there are reoccurences or unresistant desire for lying, adultery, fornication, divorce and abortion in your life, you might be suffering from CORDS ATTACHMENT from your father's or mother's iniquity. If your parents did not enjoyed their marriage, why should you suffer the same?
David’s own iniquity was adultery with Bathsheba and the cord of his sin affected his sons. Do you remember Absalom? He was another son of David, who slept with his father’s wives openly before all Israel (2Sam. 16:22). And another son of his, Adonijah, asked for his father’s (David’s) wife Abishag (1Kings 2:17). Solomon had to kill him for this. David himself said: “The spirit of the Lord spake by me, and his word was in my tongue. The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God. And He shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds, as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain. Although my house be not so with God …” (2Sam. 23:2-5).
In other words, David’s house was not a perfect testimony to the Lord. His shining for God was not without some clouds. All that God promised him, he could not fully realize. David traced his fall to the generation cords that bound him when he was in his mother’s womb. He did not say, “I fell because I was careless with a woman”. But he said in Psalm 51:5: “Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me”.
