Who Touched Me
from The Truth Church
Pastor Hilton preaches from Luke 8:43–46, focusing on Jesus’s question, “Who touched me?” He distinguishes between the crowd pressing against Jesus and the woman with the issue of blood who touched Him with desperate, intentional faith. After twelve years of suffering and spending all on physicians, she reached out and touched the border of His garment, and virtue flowed from Him instantly. Pastor Hilton argues that many attend church merely brushing against God’s presence: physically present but without authentic, transformative contact. He identifies three levels of engagement: being merely present where Jesus is, asking Jesus to touch you (beseeching Him), and the highest level, taking hold of Him yourself, bypassing all obstacles. Using Mark 6:56, he notes that wherever Jesus went, the sick begged to touch even the fringe of His garment, and as many as touched Him were made whole: whole meaning more than physical healing; it implies complete restoration. Pastor Hilton urges the congregation to move beyond consumer Christianity and passive attendance. He emphasizes that God’s power is not limited to specific preachers, songs, or emotional moments; it is available to anyone who reaches out with desperate faith. The sermon is a call to genuine, personal encounter with Jesus that changes lives, transforms services, and brings the glory of God into the church and into homes. The altars are opened for those who want to touch Jesus and receive their answer.
