What happens when biblical promises of healing collide with modern medical diagnoses? Pastor Linda Budd of Rivergate Church in Tulsa takes us on an extraordinary journey through her healing ministry, where the supernatural becomes tangible.

Linda shares her conviction that Scripture's mandate to "lay hands on the sick" isn't merely symbolic but deeply practical. This belief has driven her pursuit of a healing anointing that's manifested in countless recoveries from various ailments. The heart of her testimony revolves around a woman who arrived with broken ribs and breathing difficulties. Through prayer, the woman experienced immediate relief, exclaiming "I can breathe!" with newfound joy.

But the story doesn't end there. When the woman returned days later, she revealed additional injuries—a fractured spine that had left her visibly bent to one side and epilepsy causing weekly seizures for years. As Pastor Linda confronted what she terms "a controlling spirit," witnesses watched in amazement as the woman's spine straightened completely. Two weeks later, the woman testified that her seizures had completely stopped, breaking a pattern that had persisted for years.

These accounts challenge our understanding of healing and invite questions about the intersection of faith and medicine. Have we overlooked spiritual dimensions of physical ailments? Could authority exercised through faith catalyze healing beyond conventional treatment? Whatever your perspective, Linda's experiences offer compelling food for thought about the power of faith-based healing in contemporary life. Interested in experiencing this ministry firsthand?
