To Walk in Love
CONFESSION: In the name of Jesus, I decide right now to accept my responsibility in this walk of love. I love You, Lord, and the evidence of my love is the love I show to others. I receive Your power, Your anointing and all that comes as a result of my obedience to walk in love. I will even demonstrate love to my enemies. I open myself up to this love walk. Change me, rearrange me and make me new again. I thank You, God, that I will not miss the very best that You have for me. I won't just wear a Christian label, but I will live as a Christian as well. I believe that I receive right now the faith to walk in love, in Jesus' name. Amen

Prayer of Dedication, Consecration, and Submission
Father, I pray the Prayer of Dedication, Consecration, and Submission. In every area of my life, I belong to You. Father, I'll go where you want me to go, I'll do what you want me to do. Not my will, but your will be done. Thank you, Father that you work in me both to will and to do of your good pleasure. You have a good plan for my life, a plan of peace and joy.
Father, what you want and what you desire is what I want; that is what I desire. Not my will, but your will for my life every day, Father. Not my own way, not the way of the flesh, but the way of the Spirit. Father, your will, your plan, your way.
Father, I dedicate my life to you in every area. You have a plan for me in every area of life. Thank you, Father, for the joy of obedience. I will obey you with joy. Father, I want to have the spirit of obedience in my life, not rebellion or pride, not resistance or hard-heartedness, but a soft, sensitive heart that is willing to do anything.
I rebuke rebellion and stubbornness in Jesus' Name. Father, I say before your presence that I am willing to do anything you want me to do. No matter what man says, no matter what the world says, you have found a willing person. You have found an obedient person.
Father, I will do what you say all the way, just the way you say it, no more and no less, and with joy. Thank you, Father, for the spirit of faith and the spirit of obedience. And Father, thank you that your will will be fulfilled in my life to your glory. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
BREAKING CURSES
In the name of Jesus Christ, I now rebuke, break, and loose myself and my family from any and all evil curses, fetishes, charms, vexes, hexes, spells, every jinx, all psychic powers, sorcery, bewitchments, enchantments, witchcraft, love potions, and psychic prayers that have been put upon me, back to ten generations on both sides of my family.
I break and loose myself from any and all connected or related spirits from any person or persons or from any occult or psychic sources. I ask You, Heavenly Father, to return them to the senders now. Let him that loves cursing receive it unto himself.
The Children
Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray and confess Your Word over my children and surround them with my faith - faith in Your Word that You watch over it to perform it! I confess and believe that my children are disciples of Christ taught of the Lord and obedient to Your will. Great is the peace and undisturbed composure of my children, because You, God, contend with that which contends with my children, and You give them safety and ease them.
Father, You will perfect that which concerns me. I commit and cast the care of my children once and for all over on you, Father. They are in Your hands, and I am positively persuaded that You are able to guard and keep that which I have committed to You. You are more than enough!
I confess that my children obey their parents in the Lord as His representatives, because this is just and right. My children honor, esteem, and value as precious their parents; for this is the first commandment with a promise: that all may be well with my children and that they may live long on the earth. I believe and confess that my children choose life and love You, Lord, obey Your voice, and cling to You; for You are their life and the length of their days. Therefore, my children are the head and not the tail, and shall be above only and not beneath. They are blessed when they come in and when they go out.
I believe and confess that You give Your angels charge over my children to accompany and defend and preserve them in all their ways. You, Lord, are their refuge and fortress. You are their glory and the lifter of their heads.
As parents, we will not provoke, irritate, or fret our children. We will not be hard on them or harass them, or cause them to become discouraged, sullen, or morose, or feel inferior and frustrated. We will not break or wound their spirits, but we will rear them tenderly in the training, discipline, counsel, and admonition of the Lord. We will train them in the way they should go, and when they are old they will not depart from it.
O Lord, my Lord, how excellent (majestic and glorious) is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory on or above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and unweaned infants You have established strength because of Your foes, that You might silence the enemy and the avenger. I sing praise to Your name, O Most High. The enemy is turned back from my children in the name of Jesus! They increase in wisdom and in favor with God and man. Amen.

Confession of Favor
In the Name of Jesus, I am the righteousness of God. Therefore,
I am entitled to covenant kindness and covenant favor. The
favor of God is among the righteous. The favor of God surrounds
the righteous. Therefore, it surrounds me everywhere I go
and in everything I do. I expect the favor of God to be in
full manifestation in my life.
Never again will I be without the favor of God. It rests richly
upon me. It profusely abounds in me. I am a part of the generation
that is experiencing God's favor immeasurably, limitlessly,
and surpassingly. Therefore, favor produces supernatural increase,
promotion, restoration, honor, increased assets, greater victories,
recognition, prominence, preferential treatment, petitions
granted, policies and rules changed, and battles won in which
I do not have to fight.
For Prosperity
Since I seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
all these things are added to me. There may be a shortage
of food in the cupboard and money in the bank, but my God
supplies all my need according to His riches in glory. El
Shaddai is my source. I speak light into the darkness. Lack
of clothing I speak to you. Lack of finances I speak to you.
Lack of food I speak to you. Lack of transportation I speak
to you. "If God be for me, you cannot be against me. Be removed
from my life and be cast into the sea". Provisions, food,
clothing and money, I speak to you, "Come into my life. Come
into the life of my family. Righteousness finds it's way to
me. Healing finds it's way to me. Prosperity finds it's way
to me. Financial blessings come upon me and overtake me".
Jesus is preeminent in my life. Therefore, all grace is abounding
toward me. So I can have a sufficient supply in every area
of my life to give into every good work of God. I am a giver.
I am a sower. Therefore, I am a reaper. Harvest day has arrived.
Jesus became poor on the cross so I could be rich. Prosperity
is part of the atonement and my spiritual right. I resist
lack and poverty in Jesus name. I will not live below my covenant
rights I AM PROSPEROUS. Today will be a good day. Every weapon
of Satan planned for me will turn on him. This day, I am more
than a conqueror. Today will be filled with blessings from
God. All spiritual and natural blessings for this day have
been arranged for me before the foundation of the earth. I
can't lose.
The favor of God is on me and goes before. Therefore, my life
will never be the same. This is the time of God's favor in
my life. That is the favor of God. In Jesus' name, Amen.

For Health & Healing
"Father, in the name of Jesus, we confess Your Word concerning
____'s healing. As we do this, I believe and say that Your
Word will not return to You void in _____ behalf, but will
accomplish what Your Word says it will. Therefore, we believe
in the name of Jesus that _____ is healed, totally and completely,
from the top of their heads to the soles of their feet, according
to 1 Peter 2:24. It is written in Your Word that Jesus Himself
took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. Therefore, with
great boldness and confidence we say on the authority of the
written Word that _____ is redeemed from the curse of sickness,
and we refuse to tolerate it's symptoms."
"Satan, we speak to you in the name of Jesus and say that
your principalities, powers, your spirits who rule the present
darkness, and your spiritual wickedness in heavenly places
are bound from operating against _____ in any way. _____ is
the property of Almighty God, and we give you NO place in
_____. He (She) dwells in the secret place of the Most High
God. _____ abide, remain stable and fixed under the shadow
of the Almighty, whose power no foe can withstand."
"Now, Father, because we reverence and worship You, we have
the assurance of Your Word that the angel of the Lord encamps
around _____ and delivers him/her from every evil work. No
evil shall befall _____, no plague or calamity shall come
near his/her dwelling. I confess the Word of God abides in
_____ and delivers to him/her perfect soundness of mind and
wholeness in body and spirit from the deepest parts of his/her
nature in his/her immortal spirit even to the joints and marrow
of his/her bones.
The Word is medication and life to _____ flesh for the law
of the Spirit of Life operates in _____ and makes _____ free
from the law of sin and death. In Jesus name, Amen!"
_____ has on the whole armor of God, and the shield of faith
protects _____ from all the fiery darts of the wicked. Jesus
is the High Priest of his/her confession, and she holds fast
to his/her confession of faith in Your Word. _____ stands
immovable and fixed in full assurance that he/she has good
health and healing NOW, in the name of Jesus.
(Once this has been prayed, thank the Father that satan is
bound, and continue to confess your healing and thank God
for it. As faith is based on the finished work of the cross,
faith looks at the present situation and claims victory NOW
and Now and Now until it comes…don't waver and watch what
you say, as the Word say we get what we say, so make it good,
and from the Word.)

To Walk in Forgiveness
Father, in the Name of Jesus, I make a fresh commitment to
You to live in peace and harmony, not only with the other
brothers and sisters of the Body of Christ, but also with
my friends, associates, neighbors, and family.
I let go of all bitterness, resentment, envying, strife, and
unkindness in any form. I give no place to the devil in Jesus'
Name. Now Father, I ask Your forgiveness. By faith, I receive
it, having assurance that I am cleansed from all unrighteousness
through Jesus Christ. I ask You to forgive and release all
who have wronged and hurt me. I forgive and release them.
Deal with them in your mercy and loving-kindness.
From this moment on, I purpose to walk in love, to seek peace,
to live in agreement, and to conduct myself toward others
in a manner that is pleasing to You. I know that I have right
standing with you and Your ears are attentive to my prayers.
It is written in Your Word that the love of God has been poured
forth into my heart by the Holy Ghost Who is given to me.
I believe that love flows forth into the lives of everyone
I know, that I may be filled with and abound in the fruits
of righteousness which bring glory and honor unto You, Lord,
in Jesus' Name. So be it! Amen.

A Prayer for Protection from Psalm 91
Father, I praise You that I dwell in the secret place of the
Most High and that I shall remain stable and fixed under the
shadow of the Almighty [whose power no foe can withstand].
I will say of You, Lord, "the Lord is my refuge and my fortress,
my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I confidently trust!"
For then You will deliver me from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence. Then You will cover me with
Your feathers, and under Your wings shall I trust and find
refuge. Your truth and Your faithfulness are a shield and
a buckler to me. I shall not be afraid of the terror of the
night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the
wicked) that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that stalks
in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that
surprise and lay waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at
my side, and ten thousand at my right hand, but it shall not
come nigh my dwelling. For You will give Your angels especial
charge over me, to accompany, defend and preserve me in all
my ways of obedience and service to You. Your angels shall
bear me up on their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone.
I shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and
the serpent shall I trample underfoot. Because I have set
my love upon You, therefore will You deliver me. You will
set me on high, because I know and understand Your name. I
have a personal knowledge of Your mercy, love and kindness.
I trust and rely on You, knowing You will never forsake me,
no, never. I shall call upon You, and You will answer me.
You will be with me in trouble. You will deliver me and honor
me. With long life will You satisfy me and show me Your salvation.
(Psalm 91 - taken from the Amplified Bible)
