Jesus Took the Pain (Part 1)

What happens when a pastor takes the scriptural promise of healing literally? Pastor Linda Budd of Rivergate Church in Tulsa shares her remarkable journey of pursuing a healing anointing and the extraordinary results she's witnessed. With a straightforward approach to faith and healing, Linda reveals how dozens of people have experienced physical restoration through prayer.

The turning point in her ministry came through a personal encounter with divine mercy. Facing a medical procedure that would typically cause extreme pain, Linda received a simple yet profound revelation: "Jesus took the pain." What followed defied medical explanation—a normally painful procedure became completely painless. This supernatural experience transformed not just her own faith but launched a new dimension of her healing ministry.

Linda's testimonies flow with authenticity as she describes healing services where "no hype, just presence and power and love" created an atmosphere for the miraculous. People with longstanding physical conditions found immediate relief as she ministered with the declaration "Jesus took the pain." The results speak for themselves—one healing after another, creating an environment where people didn't want to leave. Whether you're curious about faith healing, seeking physical restoration, or interested in experiencing God's power, these testimonies offer hope and inspiration.

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. Well, what do you say when Jesus comes into the room, when he comes into the house, and everybody gets healed?

Speaker 2: 0:51

Oh, it was a powerful night. Just no hype, just presence and power and love, just the passion of the Lord manifesting, healing one person after another.

Speaker 1: 1:02

It was so sweet I had to go to the doctor for something and it wasn't going to be fun, and I was dreading it and all of it, and I knew that what he would have to do would be painful, like really painful. And I was dreading it and I said, lord, I'm in faith, I know your word. I've been quoting the scriptures, I've been praising you, I've been quoting the scriptures, I've been praising you, I've been praying, and. But I'm dreading this. And all of a sudden, I heard the voice of the Lord say Jesus took the pain. And so I went to the doctor and it was an absolute miracle you were there and there was absolutely no pain, which is impossible. Yeah, I'm not telling you the situation, but it was impossible to not have pain. It was supernatural.

Speaker 2: 1:53

It was absolutely miracle. That's a miracle of mercy and power.

Speaker 1: 1:56

So because he did that for me, well then I'm going to release that on other people. It would be crazy not to. Because Jesus took the pain. Jesus took the pain, jesus took the pain. So we had quite a crowd here tonight and I just went down the row, one after another and had people say where the pain, physical pain, is in their body, and then we just said Jesus took the pain didn't we?

Speaker 2: 2:18

Yeah, we did some shouting, crying out to God, crying out to God praise, desperation, desperation, whatever.

Speaker 1: 2:25

And we saw one healing and deliverance after another one person long standing, stuff long standing, and the pain came off and the people got healed. And it was one after another, after another, after another. And I'll tell you we didn't want to leave right now, but Jesus took the pain. So, whatever you're suffering in your another after another, and I'll tell you we didn't want to leave right now, but Jesus took the pain. So, whatever you're suffering in your body physically right now, in the name of Jesus, jesus took the pain and he's taking it off of you right now and it will not return. In the name of Jesus, amen. Aren't these just great testimonies of the goodness of God and the healing power of Jesus Christ?
