Arise and Be Healed

by Donnie McClurkin

Theology & Meaning

Arise and Be Healed is a declaration of healing drawn from the gospel accounts of Jesus commanding the sick to rise and be made whole. The theology connects the physical healings of Jesus' earthly ministry to the ongoing healing work of the Spirit, declaring that the God of Scripture still raises the broken and restores the wounded. It speaks to physical, emotional, and spiritual healing without reducing any category.

Worship Leadership Tips

A powerful song for healing services, prayer nights focused on restoration, or any gathering where the congregation is carrying significant pain or illness. Lead it with genuine faith and in a spirit of prayer rather than performance. Allow extended time for prayer and ministry after the song.

Arrangement Tips

Gospel arrangement that builds from prayer-like restraint to full declaration. McClurkin's production allows for an extended, spontaneous approach in live settings. Begin quietly to create space for people to receive the ministry of the song, then build into full corporate declaration. Percussion enters as faith rises.
