The phrase, “What Did God Say,” has become my family’s mantra. We know that there is power in the Word of God, which is important to declare over all circumstances, especially in times of crisis. During my mom’s health calamity (shared below), we became aware of a list of 101 healing Scriptures compiled from the Word of God. My family and I steadfastly began to proclaim these healing Scriptures, as often possible, over my mom (along with relentless prayer and other measures). Even amidst the most harrowing, exhausting days at the hospitals, my dad and I would voice to each other, “I know what people (especially the doctors) are saying, but what did GOD say? Tell me, what did GOD say?” (Hence, the title of my song.) Then, we’d proclaim God’s Word, because what God says is solely paramount and all that we accept.

Our Creator established a universal law asserting that words possess power and are able to affect change within the natural realm. Words can create or destroy. The Scriptures state that “death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21). Of course, God created the world by speaking it into existence. God said, “Let there be light and there was light” (Genesis 1:3). Everything originated and proliferated via God’s Words. It’s difficult to comprehend how much power and authority our words carry when we speak the actual Words of the Creator of the Universe.

My new song was born of God leading me to turn some of the 101 healing Scriptures into a song that would make the healing declarations easier to trumpet over one’s life. “What Did God Say” is intended to be a healing anthem, that when sung, or listened to, is like spiritual medicine to the listener’s being. This anthem promotes healing because the lyrics are the express Word of God, our Creator. When you speak God’s Words, your body takes notice and can respond because creation recognizes the Words of its Creator (Proverbs 4: 20-22). Of course, we should also heed the advice of our doctors as God leads us. God can accomplish healing medicinally as well.

We are spirit beings housed in a physical body. At times, disease is spiritually rooted and may require spiritual healing that can subsequently manifest as physical healing. What better manner to inspire spiritual healing than to speak/sing into our beings the healing Words of the One who created us? God’s Word affirms to us that His will is for us to be healed, restored, and celebrating a long life. Therefore, I encourage you to sing along with me these healing Words of God over your body. You can further apply this concept by speaking what God says into every aspect of your life.

Biblically, the root (עוד) for the Hebrew word testimony (עדות) means “to repeat” or “to do it again” with equivalent authority and power. Thus, regarding healing testimonies, we can have Hope that God will repeat the healing miracle in each testimony for those who hear it. In sharing my mom’s healing testimonies, I’m presenting evidence of God’s miraculous wonders which He has done, and that which He is able to perform in the future. In other words, these testimonies urge God to repeat said miracles. These stories can provide you with Hope for your own circumstances. Don’t hesitate to petition God to accomplish for you what He did for my mom.

Together, let’s make it the norm to proclaim what God says over every situation that we may face. Throughout every day, my family repeatedly listens to this song (as my mom did when she stayed in the hospitals), because we know it’s imperative to have our environment saturated in God’s Words. I’ve added the song lyrics to this page for you to declare along with me. This healing anthem is a ministry vessel that I pray will give you Hope in every circumstance for God’s healing, restoration, and victory in your life! Please do share this song along with my mom’s healing testimonies!
