Zac Poonen · Apr 25, 2025 · 11m
The sermon emphasizes that unbelief is a sin, not merely a weakness, and that Jesus strongly rebuked His disciples for it.

Zac Poonen · Apr 16, 2025 · 10m
The message uses Abraham's story in Romans 4 to illustrate that true faith involves believing God's promises even when all evidence suggests impossibility. Just as Abraham was promised a multitude of children despite his and Sarah's barrenness, believers must trust God's word for victory over sin and life, even when feeling defeated. The key is to look to God's promise rather than one's own perceived weakness or failure.

Zac Poonen · Mar 26, 2025 · 11m
The central message is that God's provision and blessings are directly proportional to the degree of surrender and giving one offers Him. The speaker emphasizes that just as Jesus gave everything to the Father, believers must also give their entire selves—their assets, plans, and desires—to God.

Zac Poonen · Mar 22, 2025 · 12m
The message emphasizes that Christians must draw a clear, unwavering line between their values and the passing world, comparing this to Noah building the Ark.

The central message is that the greatest danger of deception comes when a believer loses their fervent devotion to Jesus Christ.

Zac Poonen · Mar 5, 2025 · 9m
The central message is that when facing conflict, the believer should remain silent and trust in God's fight on their behalf. The speaker draws from Psalm 46:10, advising to 'be still and know that I am God,' and uses the example of King Jehoshaphat to illustrate that fear dissipates when one seeks the Lord. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that true spiritual strength comes from refusing to fight with human beings, as this focus distracts from the spiritual warfare against evil principalities.

Zac Poonen · Feb 11, 2025 · 10m
The central message is that God's grace is sufficient to overcome sin and endure life's trials, unlike trying to conquer sin through sheer willpower under the law.

He concludes by citing 1 Corinthians 10:13, assuring that God will never allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bear, always providing a way of escape through grace.
