What happens when divine healing meets everyday life? Pastor Linda Budd of Rivergate Church takes us on a journey through her healing ministry, grounded in the literal interpretation of scripture to "lay hands on the sick and see them recover." With years dedicated to developing a healing anointing, she shares powerful testimonies of divine intervention in unexpected places.
The centerpiece of this episode is a remarkable story about Bill, a man Pastor Linda met through Facebook Marketplace. When severe back pain prevented him from keeping their meeting, Linda's offer to pray for healing led to an impromptu healing session by his truck in a Walgreens parking lot. Despite his initial skepticism, Bill experienced partial relief—but the story doesn't end there. His inability to receive complete healing reveals a profound spiritual truth about the connection between forgiveness and physical wholeness.
Pastor Linda delivers a powerful message about the dangers of unforgiveness, particularly toward ourselves. "When we say 'I can't forgive myself,' you're making yourself bigger than God," she explains, highlighting how holding onto guilt and shame contradicts the very purpose of Christ's sacrifice. This episode bridges practical faith with theological depth, demonstrating how healing ministry extends beyond church walls into our daily interactions. Whether you're struggling with physical ailments or emotional barriers to wellness, this message offers both hope and a challenge to embrace complete forgiveness as a pathway to healing.
