August 4 | Daily Devotion | The Mark Of New Covenant Blessing Is Not Wealth And Health | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · 11m · CFC Daily Devotions
True blessing under the New Covenant is not measured by material wealth and health, but by spiritual transformation and union with Christ. The mark of God's blessing is internal holiness and a clear vision of Christ, not external prosperity.

All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 31 of 80) - Zac Poonen (with Romanian Subtitles)
Zac Poonen · Sep 24, 2018 · 24m
Jesus taught not only through his words but significantly through his actions and how he related to people. The sermon emphasizes that understanding everything Jesus taught requires studying the entirety of the Gospels. Furthermore, the teaching highlights that God's will is always for our greater good, which sometimes means enduring suffering or not receiving immediate healing, as God's ultimate purpose is for His greater glory.

All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 28 of 80) - Zac Poonen (with Romanian Subtitles)
Zac Poonen · Sep 24, 2018 · 25m
The sermon emphasizes the critical importance of taking Jesus' teachings, particularly the Sermon on the Mount, seriously. Jesus taught that the way to life is a narrow gate, contrasting it with the broad path leading to destruction through uncontrolled sin like anger and lust. The speaker warns against false prophets who dilute Scripture, making the path seem easier than what Christ commanded.

God's Perfect Plan For Your Life - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · Sep 7, 2018 · 47m
God has a detailed and perfect plan for every individual, established even before birth, which is for welfare and hope, not calamity. Believers should trust this divine plan rather than trying to plan their own futures. Furthermore, Christians are called to live each day as a gift, focusing on the present moment rather than worrying about an uncertain tomorrow, and to diligently teach God's Word to their children.

God Rejoices Over Humble And Lowly People (Zeph 3:12,13 & 17) - Ian Robson
Ian Robson · Jul 25, 2018 · 1h 1m
The sermon encourages deep meditation on the Book of Zephaniah, particularly contrasting the coming judgment of the Day of the Lord with the promise that God will rejoice over His people. The central message is that believers should not fear anything because God is in their midst as a victorious warrior, leading to a life lived in humble reliance on God's Word rather than self-pride or false hope.

The Old Man, The Old Covenant And The New Covenant - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jul 24, 2018 · 1h 10m
The speaker emphasizes that Jesus Christ, not the Old Covenant law, is the means by which God's people enter their full inheritance in the New Covenant life. He defines sin as anything contrary to the life of Jesus, arguing that all humanity has sinned by falling short of the perfect life Jesus lived. The core message is that believers must press on toward Christlikeness, recognizing that while forgiveness was available before, salvation from sin and eternal separation from God is achieved through Christ's sacrifice.

Scoffing Makes Fetters Stronger - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · May 24, 2018 · 38m
The sermon explores the danger of scoffing, drawing from Psalm 1, which contrasts the blessed life of the righteous with the paths of the wicked, sinners, and scoffers. The speaker identifies two main groups of scoffers: those who mock authorities or God's messengers (like the boys mocking Elisha), and the arrogant who scoff at things they do not understand. Ultimately, the message warns that God's patience has limits, citing examples like the Ark and Sodom, and encourages delighting in God's Word instead of mocking truth.

Living By Sincere Faith - Anand Thomas
Anand Thomas · May 24, 2018 · 25m
The central message is the necessity of cultivating a living and sincere faith, which involves unwavering dependence on the Lord through all life's trials. The speaker contrasts trusting in man or flesh, which leads to spiritual barrenness, with trusting in the Lord, which results in enduring strength like a tree by water. Examples from scripture, including Peter's declaration to Jesus and Peter walking on water, illustrate that true faith requires stepping out in trust based on Jesus' word.

God's Weakness vs Man's Strength - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · May 18, 2018 · 32m
The sermon contrasts human strength and limited understanding with the infinite power and superior ways of God. The speaker emphasizes that human efforts, no matter how great, are temporary and cannot achieve eternal value without God's involvement. God works through limitations, using processes like fire and water to refine His servants, as seen in the examples of Moses, Jacob, Gideon, and David, proving that God's methods are far beyond human comprehension.

True Faith And The Fear Of God In These Times (Hebrews 11:7) - Ian Robson
Ian Robson · Jan 17, 2018 · 1h 6m
The central message is that true faith is not merely believing in God's existence or expecting miracles, but rather believing that God is who He says He is—the 'I Am'—and that He is in control of every circumstance. This profound trust allows believers to remain at rest and not be thrown into unrest by worldly events or misunderstandings. The speaker contrasts this deep faith with superficial interpretations, such as the prosperity gospel.

The Power Of Praise And Thanks - Newton
Newton · Dec 20, 2017 · 57m
The Book of Psalms is a collection of songs and hymns designed to teach believers to praise and be thankful to God in all circumstances. The speaker emphasizes that a vibrant relationship with the Lord, found through meditating on Scripture and heartfelt prayer, is the most wonderful thing. Ultimately, true joy and contentment are found in the Lord, leading to victory over sin and discouragement through continuous praise.

Being Faithful With God's Gifts - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Nov 21, 2017 · 52m
The sermon centers on the Parable of the Talents and Psalm 1, emphasizing that true prosperity and stability come from delighting in the law of the Lord and meditating on God's word. The speaker stresses that believers must actively cultivate their 'hidden life' by connecting with the Holy Spirit in private moments, which prevents spiritual withering, regardless of external circumstances. By rooting oneself in God's unchanging nature, one can maintain joy and effectiveness in all areas of life.

How The Work In CFC Began - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 12, 2017 · 1h 26m
The speaker emphasizes that true prophecy, as seen in figures like Jeremiah and John the Baptist, is not about predicting the future but calling God's people back to repentance. He urges listeners to return to the Bible and emulate the preaching style of Jesus and the Apostles, warning against modern trends that deviate from this original teaching. Ultimately, the message is to contend earnestly for the pure faith delivered by Jesus and the Apostles.

16.Why Satan Was Not Destroyed - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 18, 2017 · 25m
The speaker discusses the theological question of why God did not destroy Satan immediately after his fall. He argues that God allows Satan to exist because God can use even an enemy or rebel to fulfill His greater purposes. He cites the example of Pharaoh, whom God used to demonstrate His power, and the example of Paul's 'thorn in the flesh,' which kept him humble and dependent on God.

26.Escaping Deception - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 17, 2017 · 25m
The central message is that Christians must guard against deception, which can come from both open persecution and subtle doctrinal lies. The speaker emphasizes that the ultimate test of faith is unwavering adherence to Scripture, as demonstrated by Jesus. True safety comes from seeking fellowship with those who lead one away from sin and iniquity, rather than merely performing religious acts.

25.The New Covenant - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 17, 2017 · 25m
The speaker explains the difference between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant. The Old Covenant operated on a system of rewards and punishments based on adherence to commandments, which ultimately revealed humanity's inability to meet God's standards. The New Covenant, established through Christ's death and resurrection, is characterized by God's mercy, promising forgiveness of sins rather than conditional blessings or curses.

15.Jesus Is Our Forerunner - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 7, 2017 · 28m
Jesus is presented as our Forerunner, meaning he ran the exact path we must follow in our faith journey. To be a true example, Jesus had to be 100% man, experiencing the same temptations and limitations as us, yet remaining sinless. This humanity is crucial because it allows us to follow his example in overcoming sin and temptation, as demonstrated by his miracle of walking on water.

14.Salvation From Sin - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 7, 2017 · 26m
The central message is that Jesus' primary work was to save humanity from the root problem of sin, not merely to address its symptoms like sickness or financial difficulty. The speaker emphasizes that true salvation involves deliverance from the penalty of sin (past), the power of sin (present), and ultimately, the presence of sin (future). He argues that focusing only on the symptoms distracts from the core gospel message found in Jesus' name meaning: 'one who saves people from their sins.'

12.The Power Of God's Word - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 7, 2017 · 25m
The sermon emphasizes the supreme importance of God's Word, citing its role in creation (Genesis 1) and its authority in the last book of Revelation. The speaker uses Jesus' life—from studying in the Temple at age 12 to quoting scripture during the temptation in the wilderness—to illustrate that life must be sustained by God's Word, not merely physical sustenance. Furthermore, the message warns against taking verses out of context, stressing that the whole truth requires comparing scripture with scripture.

4.The Fall Of Man - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 3, 2017 · 25m
The sermon examines the Fall of Man, using Adam and Eve's attempt to hide behind trees and wear fig leaves as an analogy for modern sin. These fig leaves symbolize humanity's tendency to cover up sin through works, rituals, or pretense to earn God's acceptance. The central message is that true acceptance comes from realizing God's unconditional love, allowing believers to approach Him openly rather than hiding behind works or masks.

3.Satan's Tactics - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 3, 2017 · 25m
The speaker analyzes Satan's tactics by examining the temptation in Genesis 3, warning that the devil's primary strategy is to make people question God's Word. He warns that just as the devil told Eve that disobedience wouldn't result in death, he today tells believers that living according to the flesh is not fatal after accepting Christ. Furthermore, the devil lies by suggesting God withholds good things or doesn't care for us, contrary to God's true purpose of blessing humanity.

Zac Poonen · Jul 14, 2017 · 49m
The speaker emphasizes that knowing the truth, which comes through God's Word, is the path to true freedom from sin and discouragement. He stresses the necessity of always being ready to defend one's faith with gentleness and reverence. The core message is that Jesus Christ is the only way to God because sin breaks the connection with an absolutely holy and just Creator, a separation that only Christ can reconcile.

7) Those Who Give God Their Best - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jun 2, 2017 · 1h 9m
The speaker uses the story of Cain and Abel to teach that God accepts offerings based on the heart's attitude, not the offering itself. He emphasizes that giving God's very best, motivated by gratitude, is what matters most. Furthermore, he draws a parallel to Matthew 5, teaching that reconciliation with one's brother must happen before any offering can be accepted by God.

All That Jesus Taught (Bible Study – 23 of 80) - Zac Poonen (with Romanian Subtitles)
Zac Poonen · Apr 24, 2017 · 25m
The sermon focuses on Jesus' teachings regarding giving, praying, and fasting, emphasizing that these acts must be done in secret to receive reward from God, not for human praise. The speaker warns against boasting about religious acts and also addresses the wrong attitude of the love of money, urging listeners to store up treasure in heaven rather than on earth, as the heart follows the treasure.
