In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the diabolical work of Satan, who has no sympathy and seeks to rip people off every week. However, Jesus came to offer abundant life and can revive various aspects of our lives, including marriages and spiritual callings. The preacher emphasizes the need for vibrant heart faith and childlike trust in Christ, which can change the way we live, talk, and feel. Faith is described as total dependence on God, which becomes supernatural in its working. The sermon encourages believers to see beyond their circumstances and trust that God is with them. It emphasizes that faith is essential for pleasing God and is the foundation for Christian living. The preacher calls for believers to engage in spiritual warfare, fighting for their stolen property through faith and prayer.

What is faith? It is total dependence upon God that becomes supernatural in its working. People with faith develop a second kind of sight. They see more than just the circumstances. They see God right beside them. Can they prove it? No. But by faith they know He is there nonetheless. Without faith, says Hebrews 11.6, it is impossible to please God. Nothing else counts if faith is missing. There is no other foundation for Christian living, no matter the amount of self-effort or energy spent. Nothing else touches the Father's heart as much as when His children simply trust Him wholeheartedly. Remember, we are not wrestling against flesh and blood. We're in spiritual warfare. In your life and mine, here at the beginning of the 21st century, somebody has to step up and stand in the gap, fighting for stolen property with the weapons of faith and prayer. Somebody has to go after it. Our enemy Satan has no feelings of sympathy. If you don't resist, he'll rip you off every week, all year long. That's his diabolical work. But Jesus came that we might have life, abundant life. He can revive your marriage. He can bring back fire into your soul. Your spiritual calling can bloom once again. You can recover even the faith that the devil stole. I am not talking here about the mental assent you give to Bible truths you've heard over and over again. I'm talking about vibrant heart faith and childlike trust in the risen, supernatural Christ, the kind of faith that changes the way you live, talk, and feel. God can revive fresh faith in our souls if we ask Him. The only question is, do you and I really believe that our God will recover our stolen property? Or do we think that our situation is too far gone for Him?
