INTRODUCTION
You may feel like you’re running toward God for His favour, but
He is also coming to you quickly to show you compassion!
Debola Deji-Kurunmi 9
If he works severely, he also works tenderly. His stockpiles of
loyal love are immense. He takes no pleasure in making life hard,
in throwing roadblocks in the way!”
When God takes delight in you, it’s akin to living life on Heaven’s
bill! If you desire to do great works for the Father’s Kingdom, be
a blessing to your world, receive more than you could ever ask
or imagine and walk into treasures you couldn’t ever pay for;
then it’s time to step into the favour of God!
Before you start to take these prayers, ensure you read the
section on Understanding Faith Confessions and Meditation,
written by my spiritual father – Pastor Segun Obadje.

UNDERSTANDING FAITH
CONFESSIONS AND
MEDITATION
by Pastor Segun Obadje
WHY CONFESSION?
To confess God’s word simply means to say the same things as
God; that is, to say what God says, or to say what God’s word
implies to one.
“And God said,’ Let there be light’, and there was light”.
(Genesis 1:3)
1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
2. The same was in the beginning with God.
3. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not
anything made that was made.” (John 1:1-3)
Debola Deji-Kurunmi 11
The word of faith is the utterance of faith, not creed or doctrine
of faith.
8
“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and
in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and
shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shat be saved.
10
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with
the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10: 8-10)
22
“And Jesus answering saith unto them, ‘Have faith in God’.23For
verily I say unto you, whosoever shall say unto this mountain, ‘Be
thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea’; and shall not doubt
in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall
come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.24Therefore
I say unto you,’ What things so ever ye desire, when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.’”
(Mark 11:22-24)
“Jesus said unto him, ‘If thou canst believe, all things are possible
to him that believeth.’” (Mark 9:23.)

When the force of faith is released, all things become possible.
Our words show what we believe about any situation. Words
reveal faith or fear depending on their kind. Just as much as our
words show our faith about any situation, they also affect our
faith, which in turn affects us and ours.
1
“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ.2By whom also we have access by
faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in the hope of
the glory of God.” (Romans 5:1-2)
8
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of God 9 Not of works, lest any man should
boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we
14
behold his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)
full of grace and truth.” 16“And of his fullness have all we received,
and grace for grace.” (John 1:14, 16.)

grew worse,27When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press
behind, and touched his garment.28For she said,’ if I may touch but
his clothes, I shall be whole.’29And straightway the fountain of her
blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed
of that plague.30And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that
virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and
said,’ who touched my clothes?’31And his disciples said unto him,’
Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, who
touched me?’32And he looked round about to see her that had
done this thing.33But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing
what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told
him all the truth.34And he said unto her, ‘Daughter, thy faith hath
made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.’”
(Mark 5:25-34)
5
“By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and
was not found, because God had translated him: for before his
translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh
to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them
that diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11: 5-6)
As you confess God’s word you create realities of life; your own
peculiar advantageous circumstance and you give yourself the
needed edge in the scheme of things.

Beloved, the whole essence of Christianity is the word of faith,
which is God’s Word in your heart propelled along the projectile
path of your expectations through your mouth, producing your
desired results and conditioning your environment as you desire.
“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in
thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;9That if thou
shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in
thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved.10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and
with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
(Romans 10:8-10)
MEDITATION
Meditation is a subject that cannot be over-stressed or over-
flogged because it is the only biblical way to make the Word of
God work for you.
“This book of the law shall not depart out to thy mouth but thou
shall meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to
do according to all that is written therein, for then thou shall make
thy way prosperous, and then thou shall have good success.”
(Joshua 1:8)

STEPS TO MEDITATING ON GOD’S WORD
16 Favour Factor
balanced in the Word of God to make it work for you.
Until you begin to observe what God has said to you, you have
not studied it enough. Until it comes up and precipitates in your
spirit, you have not studied it enough. You read and then you
study – you give an in-depth consideration to what you have
read until you begin to see it in your heart.
Debola Deji-Kurunmi 17
Word to yourself births images of the same kind in your mind.
You can catch the vision of God’s Word by saying to yourself
what the Word of God has said to you (confession). Here, you
are not speaking to things but to yourself for the purpose of
building your own faith, and thereafter you can then speak to
things, situations and circumstances. Now, this form of speaking
is different from the kind of speaking in Mark 11:23 that says
“whosoever shall say unto this mountain be removed and be
thou cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart but shall
believe that whatsoever he sayeth….”
Hence, put the word in your mouth as you create the world you
would desire to call your own. Shalom!
18 Favour Factor
2. Study carefully the facts, outcomes and expectations
promised in God’s word, paying attention to how they relate
to you and your situation in particular; what is said to be done
or said to release God’s power in that regard.
3. Speak the reality of God’s Word to yourself from a heart full
of assurance and acknowledgment of God’s willingness and
ability to make good his Word to you.
Shalom!

Father, I thank you because I am not a slave but you have called
me your friend. Thank you because by faith, I have become
the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus and no longer do you
impute sins to my account.
I declare that the Lord has redeemed the time for me, and the
years which were spent in nothingness and wandering, have
now been renewed to a journey of hope and abundance. The
favour of God is upon me; therefore, I hear his voice behind me
saying ‘this is the way, walk in it’. I know what to do to move my

From now, I leave my father’s house and sojourn into the land

family traditions that hold no promise for my glorious future. I
declare that I am a person of the Word, led by the Spirit and
committed to God’s purpose for my life! Every day, I make that
onward journey into a better place. Oh glory to God! I make
that onward journey into a better place! In the name of Jesus, I
go all out by the Spirit; therefore, I prosper, advance and make
progress.
I declare in faith that the Lord has used my mistakes and failures
as materials for His purpose, and in His favour towards me, He
has brought me into His rest. In the name of Jesus, my life is no
longer held back and I am not ashamed or guilty!

His riches in glory, so that in all things, having all that I need, I
have abounded unto every good work. Today, I declare that the

for all to see! Glory to God!

Before you formed me in the belly, you knew me; and before I

the nations. I declare in the name of Jesus that your thoughts for
me stand firm and prosper, for as far as the heavens are from the
earth, so are your thoughts higher than my thoughts and your
ways higher than my ways.
I agree with God that I am kept from evil and in His favour; I
am delivered from those who seek to harm me. By His divine
wisdom, He has made a mockery of my enemies, causing them
to bless me with the best of their riches. I have seen that the Lord
God insults the labour of oppressors; causing their wealth to be
converted unto me. Oh glory to God!
Debola Deji-Kurunmi 27
I declare that I am an ordained leader of God’s people, and
the Lord has taken delight in me. As I use my spiritual gifting
in obedience, I have seen God’s divine provision, forgiveness,
direction and deliverance for me and for my own! Amen!
Today, I see that the red seas have parted and I walk through
in Jesus name! I have found a way out of tough circumstances
and leaped over forceful barricades difficult for others. I have
seen the chariots of Egyptians and their riders perishing in the
very seas through which I walked! The goodness of Jehovah has
brought me to Canaan and I live each day in His promise! Amen!

Father, I thank you because you show mercy unto whom you
will and compassion to the one you have chosen. I thank you
because you have shown me your mercy and not dealt with
me according to my iniquities. By faith, I have received the
righteousness of God.
Thank you because it is not of the man who wills or the one who
runs, it is the Lord who shows mercy. The tender mercies of the

Debola Deji-Kurunmi 29
I declare that the favour of the Lord is upon me and I am thus,
blessed with the inheritance of the strong. My smell is as the
smell of a field the Lord has blessed; therefore, God has given

good harvest. In my journey, I have found people to serve and
help me; nations also hearken to me. Everyone who blesses me
is blessed in Jesus name! Hallelujah

and He has set the world upon them.” - 1 Sam 2:8
Father, I thank you because you have raised me from the dunghill
and set me among the princes of the earth. Thank you because
you have taken me from the miry clay and set my feet upon
solid ground. That which was rejected by the builders has now
become the cornerstone.
Thank you because you are the God of my life, and when my soul

that takes an orphan maiden in a strange land from poverty to
prosperity and from a hidden identity to global fame.
Today, I stand in the God-kind of faith and confess that with God,
all things are possible and there shall nothing be impossible.

The gallows arranged for me have swallowed my adversaries

is life and it is the very strength of my existence. I thank you for

intentions and purposes of God for me materialise in undeniable
ways in Jesus’ name. By the visitation of Heaven, I am chosen
for God’s precious assignment, with wisdom to deal discreetly.

am in tune with the Holy Spirit so that I am full of peace and
joy, understanding clearly the hope set ahead of me. The Holy
Ghost has come upon me and the power of the Highest has
overshadowed me, therefore holy things emanate from my life
till my testimony has become a proof of the presence of the

Thank you Jesus! I declare from now on, that I have become a
proof of God’s mercy and am exalts people of low degree. The

will, for the things He has hidden from the wise and the prudent
have been shown to the simple at heart. I walk with the Lord
each day and set my affections on heavenly things. Regardless
of the pressures of ambition, I have kept focus on the Most High,
for He is my contemplation and constant desire. I have lived my
life by every word from His mouth!
Just like Jesus, God the Father hears me whenever I call. I have
come into His kindness that in all things and at all times, according
to His will, He hears my cry and answers my request. I have
received an assurance that the Lord is able to do exceedingly
abundantly above all I could ever ask or think. My life bears a
harvest of prayers; I am full of proofs and abound in testaments
of God.
I am not tempted beyond what I can bear for the Lord has made
a way of escape for me. As I journey in life, God has built me
up with strength in my inner man and I am fortified with grace,
therefore I do not fail in the day of adversity for I am not a weak
specimen. I hold up in persecution or hardship on the way to my
purpose, standing tall and finishing strong.

SALVATION PRAYER
Beloved, if you have not received the Lord Jesus Christ as your
Lord and Savior; then you don’t belong to the Kingdom of God,
and cannot exercise faith to make bold confessions of faith such
as those in this book. I want to invite you to receive the life of
God and become a Born Again believer today.
Romans 10: 8 – 10 says “The word is near you, in your mouth and
in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if
you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your
heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says,
“Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
Wherever you are right now, you can speak these words below,
believing in your heart and immediately become an accepted
child of God, our Heavenly Father and a member of the
household of God!
“Dear God, I recognize that I have not lived my life for You up
until now. I have been living for myself and that is wrong. I need
You so much today and I want You in my life. I acknowledge the
finished work of Your Son Jesus Christ in giving His life for me
on the cross at Calvary, and I long to receive the forgiveness
you have made freely available to me through this sacrifice.
58 Favour Factor
Come into my life now, Lord. Take up residence in my heart and
be my king, my Lord, and my Savior. From this day forward, I will
no longer be controlled by sin, or the desire to please myself,
but I will follow You all the days of my life. My days are in Your
hands. I ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen.”

“Worded Worship is a book that takes the lid off you about who
God is to His children as against the knowledge of a stereotyped
God.”

“My first contact with Debola’s books was with Healing from
Soul Wounds. Ha!!!...it was just what I needed at that time when
I was in a valley period. I was experiencing delays that I couldn’t
explain by human reasoning. I felt like I was being left behind,
with my friends and even younger ones visibly progressing in
every area and I was there, literally grounded and not advancing.
I became depressed! So, I got the Book at her meeting for free.
As I went through it, I got to the part about Healing from Lost Time
and I just stopped there to really personalize the confessions!
That book was literally in my bible for over a year! I would wake
up, read the scriptures attached to each confession and then
take the confessions. Guess what? My peace returned because
I became so confident that what has taken my mates years to
achieve would be perfected in me within months, as I had been
declaring!!

mobilized for NYSC, I found favor in a strange land, and I got a
job immediately after my service year, for which I didn’t apply.
I have had this book since 2012 and as I type right now, it is right
in front of me because as I carry those scriptures in my heart, I
also carry the book physically just in case there’s an emergency
to use the other confessions in the book that I have not taken
time to study”
