Beyond Medicine: One Pastor's Quest for Divine Healing

What happens when someone takes the biblical command to "lay hands on the sick and see them recover" completely literally? Pastor Linda Budd from Rivergate Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma has dedicated years to pursuing what she calls a "healing anointing," and the results are nothing short of remarkable.

Pastor Linda shares powerful testimonies of divine healing through faith, including a young man who was instantly freed from three years of hip pain. But what makes her approach truly unique isn't just the healings themselves—it's how she empowers others to participate in the healing ministry. After witnessing his own miraculous recovery, this young man was guided to identify someone else with similar pain and invite them forward for healing, creating a beautiful chain reaction of faith and restoration.

The testimonies shared reveal a deeply held conviction that healing is available to anyone through faith in Jesus Christ. Pastor Linda extends this healing power directly to listeners, speaking words of faith over physical ailments and calling forth "new body parts" for those in need. Her straightforward, scripture-based approach strips away complexity and focuses on the simple power of faith-based healing. Whether you're curious about faith healing, struggling with your own physical condition, or simply fascinated by testimonies of the supernatural, these stories offer a glimpse into a world where faith and physical transformation intersect in profound ways. Interested in experiencing this healing ministry firsthand? Pastor Linda welcomes speaking invitations for churches, conferences, and motivational events through the Rivergate Church office.

Hi, I'm Linda Budd. I'm a pastor at Rivergate Church in Tulsa, oklahoma, and I take the scriptures literally. That says that we are to lay hands on the sick and see them recover. And so for several years I've gone after a healing anointing. I've prayed for people dozens of times over the years and I see so many get healed. I've seen all manner of sickness and disease healed. If you have any pain in your body, if you're infirmed, if you have any disease, if you have any sickness at all, I just reach my hand up to heaven right now in the name of Jesus and I call forth the new body part that you need. Listen to this testimony.

I was ministering a lot in Oklahoma and I asked who has pain in the right hip. A young man said that he did and that he's had the pain for three years. I said walk on up here and you'll be healed. The pain will leave your hip. That is exactly what happened, and he was absolutely in awe and so I said stay here, found out what his name was.

I said well, you ask someone else who's got pain in the hip. And so he did. And another person raised their name, their hand, and I said you tell them to walk up here and they'll be healed. So he did and the woman walked up and she got healed, and it was just really fun to teach this young man how to heal the sick in the name of Jesus. Aren't these just great testimonies of the goodness of God and the healing power of Jesus Christ? If you are interested in having me come and speak at a motivational event, your church or a conference of some sort, I am more than happy to consider that invitation. Please contact my church's office, rivergate Church, tulsa, 918-492-5511, and we'll see if we can set something up. God bless you.
