What happens when faith meets physical affliction? Pastor Linda Budd of Rivergate Church in Tulsa takes us on a profound journey through her experiences with divine healing. With unwavering conviction, she shares how taking Scripture literally has transformed her ministry and the lives of countless individuals seeking physical restoration.
The raw power of testimony shines through as Pastor Linda recounts her encounters with both belief and skepticism. She candidly discusses a particularly challenging case—a woman whose palpable unbelief created a spiritual barrier that affected even the pastor's own faith. This honest acknowledgment reveals the complex interplay between healer, seeker, and divine power that often goes unaddressed in conversations about faith healing.
Pastor Linda offers practical wisdom for those pursuing physical restoration, emphasizing the critical importance of our declarations. "Declare a thing and decree a thing and it shall be established," she reminds us, highlighting how our words can either align with or contradict divine intention. Her guidance cuts through spiritual platitudes with actionable steps: submit to God's word, participate consistently in healing services, create an atmosphere of faith, and speak life over your situation. The culminating revelation—that we must live as though already healed while awaiting physical manifestation—provides a powerful framework for approaching any health challenge.
