The phrase "When Jesus say yes, nobody can say no" is popularly known from the gospel song "Say Yes" by Michelle Williams featuring Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland. The song, released in 2014 as part of Williams' album "Journey to Freedom," is inspired by a traditional Nigerian gospel tune originally titled "When Jesus Says Yes." The lyrics emphasize faith and the idea that when Jesus agrees or affirms something, no opposition can prevail. This song highlights the concept repeatedly with the chorus "When Jesus say yes, nobody can say no," expressing trust in Jesus' power and guidance.
This phrase isn't a direct biblical quote but rather a popular gospel song lyric inspired by a traditional spiritual saying used to convey the certainty and authority of Jesus' will. If you were asking about when Jesus literally said "yes," there is no specific record of Jesus using the word "yes" in the Bible as a catchphrase; rather, this phrase comes from gospel music tradition symbolizing Jesus' affirmative power.
