If you’ll allow me just a few minutes today, I want to share something that has the power to change your life.
Speaking God’s Word out loud… is faith in motion.
It’s where belief becomes action.
Those aren’t just words I’m placing on a page. This is something I’ve lived. Something I’ve watched transform lives—including my own.
There is something profoundly powerful about hearing God’s Word with your own ears—carried on the sound of your own voice—until it settles deep into your spirit.
Belief begins quietly in the heart.
But when you speak God’s Word out loud… belief begins to move.
And that movement… is faith.
Today, I want to share something with you that goes beyond poetry or theology.
These Scriptures are not just beautiful words.
They are God’s prescription for life and healing.
Read them. Speak them. Meditate on them day and night. Let them fill your heart until they become part of you.
I’ve seen this work—not just in my life, but in my own family.
Years ago, after I learned to speak God’s Word out loud as I recovered from a devastating airplane crash, my wife Paula followed that same path. She began speaking God’s promises over her life—quietly, consistently, and with growing faith.
Paula faced aggressive, terminal cancer.
Without chemotherapy. Without radiation. Without additional surgery… she stood on God’s Word.
Now, let me be very clear—Paula is not a medical doctor, and she does not tell anyone what they should or should not do medically. Each person must follow their own path with wisdom and guidance.
But this I can tell you:
She spoke God’s Word out loud.
And over time… her life changed.
God’s healing power began to move.
You see, God’s love is reaching out to every one of us.
He does not play favorites. Every one of His children is deeply loved.
Yet Scripture shows us something important:
Some people step into His promises… and others do not.
Why?
Because God’s Word must be received—not just read.
Let me share one of the most powerful passages in all of Scripture:
Proverbs 4:20–22
*My son, give attention to my words;
Incline your ear to my sayings.
Do not let them depart from your eyes;
Keep them in the midst of your heart;
For they are life to those who find them,
And health to all their flesh.”
You see, when we speak God’s Word out loud, it helps us focus. It brings our full attention to what God is saying.
Scripture also instructs us to keep His Word constantly before our eyes. That’s not accidental—it’s important. There is power in both seeing and hearing His truth at the same time.
Over the years, I’ve learned something from my 40 years as an instructor pilot: most people learn best through their eyes. You can explain something verbally, and it may register—but when a student can both hear it and see it, something deeper happens. Understanding takes root. Behavior begins to change.
For decades, I taught airline captains a simple principle:
When I hear, I forget.
When I see, I remember.
But when I do… I understand.
The same principle applies spiritually.
When you read God’s Word, speak it out loud, and keep it before your eyes, it begins to settle into your heart in a lasting way.
And within that Word… is life.
Life for who?
For anyone who believes.
And not just life—but health to all your flesh… even to the deepest parts of your body.
That is God’s promise—to you, and to me.
So give attention to His Word.
Listen with your ears.
Keep it before your eyes.
Hold it in the center of your heart.
Because His Word is life…
and it brings health to your whole being.
And as always, thank you—our friends—whose prayers and support help us continue this uncompromising ministry.
No matter what you are facing today, remember this:
With God… all things are possible.
