The Institute

01

History

The Word of Faith Bible Institute is the training arm of the Living Faith Church Worldwide. It was established on 1st September 1986 in fulfillment of the mandate God gave Bishop David Oyedepo, the President of the institute, and on 11th May 1983, God told him:

'I will, through this ministry, raise the foundations of many other ministries'.

02

Our Vision

The Vision of the Institute is in line with the mandate of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, as given to the Bishop. For this reason, the Institute's Curriculum is designed to inculcate covenant excellence in leadership, Ministry, social, economic and other areas of human endeavour.

03

Primary Goal

The anchor scripture given to His servant at the onset of the institute was Genesis 14:14. 'And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them into Dan'.

Our primary goal is to provide God-centered spiritual education that engenders enlightenment and mental empowerment for daily exploits. To this end, the Courses offered at the Word of Faith Bible Institute are tailored to reveal God to man and enable him walk in dominion on earth.

Striking Testimonies
of Transformation

Real stories of lives transformed through the Word of Faith Bible Institute. From healings to breakthroughs, every story echoes the mandate.

Testicles Restored!

‘For 13 years, one of my testicles disappeared, and as such, I had a stroke, and I could not walk well. I kept it secret for those years until someone invited me to the Winners church; thereafter, I was given a scholarship for a course at the Word of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI). Lo and behold, on the last day of our exams and impartation, my missing testicle was restored, and the stroke disappeared. Now, I can walk well. I give God all the glory!’

MD
Manoah Daniel
Healed via the Word!

‘Since I was born, I had a non-diagnosed sickness, and as such, I was placed on a drip every six months. However, I enrolled for a course at the Word of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI), and God sent me His word from Isaiah 53:3-5. Also, in 1 Corinthians 6:12, I saw that the price for my healing had been paid, and since then, I have lived a sickness-free life. March 2025 made it 20 years since I heard that word, and I have not visited the hospital. I give God all the glory!’

Pastor Opeyemi Oyebiyi
Divine Provision via an Encounter at WOFBI!

‘In 2018, a friend invited me to take a course at the Word of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI), and I did. On the last day, we came to Canaanland, and while Pastor David Oyedepo Jnr ministered, he asked us to write down what we wanted God to do for us. I wrote that I needed God to bless me with money to start up my business. Lo and behold, that week, God used my husband to bless me with the money to start my business. I return all the glory to God!’

Healed of Pile via Encounter at WOFBI!

‘For thirty years, I had pile, and as a result, it affected my sight as I could not see well with my eyes. However, in March 2021, I decided to enrol for a course at the Word of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI), having heard the testimonies of those that were healed from the institute. The day I came for the programme, the issue of blood stopped. Thereafter, I started eating things I could not eat before. Now, I am healed. I return all the glory to God!’
