Faith-fueled Fingers: When Prayer Reactivates What Doctors Reattached

Faith that transcends medical limitations drives Pastor Linda Budd's healing ministry at Rivergate Church in Tulsa. Taking scripture at its word, she has pursued the gift of healing for years, boldly approaching each opportunity with conviction that divine intervention will manifest.

The remarkable story of three women attending a funeral service becomes the centerpiece of this powerful testimony. When one woman who had previously lost a finger—surgically reattached but without sensation—receives prayer, something extraordinary happens. "She closed her fingers on her hand and made a fist and gleefully said I have not been able to do this," Pastor Linda recounts, highlighting the moment where faith manifested as physical restoration. The woman's ability to regain function in her previously numb digit stands as powerful evidence of the healing she proclaims.

Pastor Linda doesn't merely share stories—she actively extends healing declarations to listeners facing similar circumstances. Whether you're dealing with severed limbs, chronic pain, or any physical ailment, her passionate prayers offer hope beyond conventional medical prognosis. With conviction that the same power that restored feeling to a reattached finger can work in your life, Pastor Linda invites you to receive healing through faith.

Hi, I'm Linda Budd.
I'm a pastor at RivergateChurch in Tulsa, oklahoma, and I
take the scriptures literally.
That says that we are to layhands on the sick and see them
recover.
And so for several years I'vegone after a healing anointing.
I've prayed for people dozensof times over the years and I

(00:22):

I've seen all manner ofsickness and disease healed.
If you have any pain in yourbody, if you're infirmed, if you
have any disease, if you haveany sickness at all, I just
reach my hand up to heaven rightnow in the name of Jesus and I
call forth the new body partthat you need.
Listen to this testimony.

(00:43):
Three women came to a funeral atour church on a Saturday and
they were to be a part of herservice.
They came up from Texas so theystayed on Sunday for the
service.
My husband was preaching and ashe was preaching I looked at
the three of them and I thought,in the name of Jesus, I could

(01:05):
get those women healed ofanything that is bothering them
physically.
And so when my husband got donepreaching, I asked him for
permission to address theirphysical issues.
And one of the women had wantedprayer because her finger had

(01:28):
been cut off and ever since thenshe has no feeling in that
finger.
They obviously sewed it back onand so I declared that she
would get a new hand and thatthere would be feeling in that
finger.
And I want to tell you he wasso absolutely thrilled because
she stood there and she closedher fingers on her hand and made
a fist and he gleefully said Ihave not been able to do this.

(01:53):
And everybody got reallyexcited.
I want to tell you, if you'vehad a body limb cut off, I
declare to you in the name ofJesus.
If you've had a finger cut off,I declare to you in the name of
Jesus, if you've had a fingercut off, I declare to you in the
name of Jesus that it's comingback, and it's coming back
strong.
Healing is returning, happinessis leaving, the tingling is
going, the pain is going.

(02:15):
You are getting a new limb,you're getting a new finger.
In the name of Jesus, aren'tthese just great testimonies of
