Sermon Overview
Paris Reidhead defines "the word of faith" not as a modern formula for getting what one wants, but as the consistent biblical principle of hearing God's voice and responding with total trust. He argues that true faith always has an object—God Himself —and is validated by a life of obedience and surrender to His Lordship.
Key Principles
Response to revelation:Treat faith as a specific reaction to what God has spoken, not a blind leap.
Heart belief vs. Mental assent: Move beyond mere agreement with facts to a total trust of the heart.
Objective: Person of Christ: Keep Jesus—the Living Lord—as the singular focus and object of your faith.
The Word producing faith: Saturate your mind in Scripture to generate the trust required for obedience.
Avoiding "faith in faith":Stop trying to conjure up "enough faith"; look at the faithfulness of God instead.
Active will in believing:Exercise your will to choose God’s truth over your own fluctuating feelings.
Righteousness via faith:Accept that your standing before God is a gift of faith, not a wage for work.
Faith and authority:Exercise spiritual authority only as you remain under the authority of the Word.
