Viral Christian singer Forrest Frank shared with his 4.6 million Instagram followers on Saturday, Aug. 2, that he has been miraculously healed of a broken back he suffered 14 days earlier.
Two weeks ago, Frank posted a clip of a skateboarding accident that showed him falling and hitting his back on the edge of a concrete sidewalk. He was taken to the hospital, where doctors determined he had fractured both his L3 and L4 vertebrae.
Following the accident, Frank began posting videos documenting his painful recovery journey. He also shared new music he had written while bedridden. One of those songs, “Lemonade,” released Friday, Aug. 1, quickly became the No. 1 song across all genres on Apple Music.
Frank asked his followers, “Did we just witness a miracle happen or do i have the fastest bones OF ALL TIME 😂?”
“I’m pretty much convinced God would’ve healed me day 1 from all these prayers, but He wanted these songs & this testimony come to life,” he wrote in the caption. “Regardless, i’m here for it all…ruined for the ordinary. THANK YOU JESUS 🎉”
In a video update, the “Good Day” singer told fans, “So I broke my back exactly two weeks ago. Today [is] day 14. I got an X-ray and a CAT scan [and] it showed that I had multiple fractures—I could not move an inch without excruciating pain. I wake up today. Forget to put on my back brace. Just start doing the morning I pick Bodie [his son] up and then I realized, ‘Wait, I’m not wearing my brace. What is going on?’”
“I’m wearing my brace right now for a precaution,” he said, before sharing that he ordered an urgent X-ray. The results showed no sign of fracture. “I have complete healing in my back. I have no fractures in my back, no sign of a fracture in my back. So praise God, we saw a miracle.”
Tauren Wells Leads 5,000 in Prayer for Frank
On Monday, July 28, pastor and Dove Award–winning singer Tauren Wells prayed over Frank during his concert at the Ohio State Fair.
An emotional Frank shared the video of Wells praying for him. Wells told the crowd that Satan seeks to destroy what God has designed, adding that it wasn’t a coincidence that Frank broke his back skateboarding in his driveway.
“No, it’s an attack,” Wells said. “And it’s not just an attack on a person, it’s an attack on something that God is doing in the earth. And so what I thought would be cool is if we send a video to Forrest and let him know that there’s 5,000 people in Ohio praying for him.”
