Living by Faith
from The Truth Church
Pastor Hilton preaches from Luke 18:7-8 on the necessity of persistent, active faith. He emphasizes that God avenges His elect who cry day and night, and the crucial question is whether the Son of Man will find faith on earth. The enemy's primary strategy is to bewitch believers into doubt, manipulating them to devalue miracles and settle for a passive, performance-based church rather than the participatory, Spirit-led faith of the early church. He illustrates this with accounts of miraculous healings and resurrections he has witnessed or heard about, such as a young man raised from the dead and a woman healed of blindness, to demonstrate that God's power is unchanged. Paul's warning against being spoiled by philosophy and tradition calls believers to operate after Christ, not human intellect. The just shall live by faith, not by skepticism or emotionalism. Pastor Hilton exhorts the congregation to stop quenching the Spirit by overthinking or judging moves of God. Faith must be exercised in the present, not merely remembered from past revivals. The message urges a return to raw, trusting dependence on God, where believers ignore fear of what others think and respond immediately to the Spirit's leading. The altars are open for those needing a miracle, believing that God is just as able today as in Acts.
