August 3 | Daily Devotion | Repentance Is The Mark Of Being Truly Born Again | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · 10m · CFC Daily Devotions
Repentance is the defining mark of a truly born-again Christian. Without genuine repentance—a turning away from sin with changed behavior—one's claim to conversion is hollow and superficial.

God's Ways Are Totally Different From Our Ways - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jun 12, 2024 · 59m
The central message is that God's ways and thoughts are fundamentally different from human understanding, as illustrated by Isaiah 55:8-9. The speaker encourages listeners to accept this mystery rather than questioning God's timing or methods, even when prayers seem unanswered. True worship, he argues, involves focusing solely on God's glory, mirroring the worship in heaven where no individual is seen or exalted.

The Holy Spirit Reveals God's Thoughts - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 20, 2023 · 1h 1m

The Path To True Greatness In The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Not Ruling But Serving - Ian Robson
Ian Robson · Jul 11, 2023 · 1h 13m
The central message is that true greatness in the Kingdom of Heaven is found not in ruling or being the greatest, but in serving others. Drawing from Matthew 18 and Mark 9, the speaker emphasizes that one must first become humble like a child and then adopt the attitude of serving all, rather than competing with others. This service is presented as a New Covenant reality, empowered by the Holy Spirit, which is a spiritual life rather than mere adherence to rules.

Lessons From The Life Of Solomon Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Apr 18, 2023 · 21m

Zac Poonen · Apr 17, 2023 · 25m
The sermon emphasizes that the Holy Spirit reveals things that the natural person cannot understand, and that God's gifts are given freely, so preaching should never involve charging people.

Forsaking Our Will And Choosing God's Will Is The Best Offering - Jesudoss
Jesudass · Feb 22, 2023 · 7m
The central message is that the best offering to God is not material goods, but the surrender of one's own will to God's will. The speaker draws parallels from Cain and Abel, arguing that self-will, even when presented as an offering, is seen by God as worthless or even offensive. True worship, therefore, requires aligning one's entire life and will with the Father's will, exemplified by Jesus Christ.

Our Attitude Towards God And People - Ezekiaraj
CFC Messages · Feb 22, 2023 · 10m
The sermon explores two aspects of Christian attitude: towards God and towards people. Regarding God, the speaker uses Mary's costly perfume at the feast to illustrate that true devotion requires giving something precious, rather than just the minimum effort. Concerning people, Jesus washing the disciples' feet demonstrates that our attitude toward brothers and sisters should be one of humble service, recognizing it as our duty.

Don’t Offer To God What Costs You Nothing - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 22, 2023 · 54m
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant relationship with God, which was marked by fear (like at Mount Sinai), with the New Covenant relationship through Jesus Christ. He emphasizes that true reverence for God requires more than superficial religious acts, using the offerings of Cain and Abel to illustrate that God favors the best and most heartfelt giving, not just any offering. The central message is to approach God with genuine humility and sincerity, rather than merely fulfilling obligations.

Servant Session - 3. Freedom From Insecurity And Legalism - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Oct 27, 2022 · 1h 1m
The central message is that true security and freedom come from recognizing one's identity and acceptance in God, rather than from comparing oneself to others or trying to prove worthiness. The speaker uses analogies, such as the body of Christ and the parable of the talents, to illustrate that every member has a unique, God-given function, and one must follow Christ's life rather than trying to replicate a ministry. Ultimately, believers must surrender all ambition and desire for earthly honor to trust in God's unconditional love, just as He loved Jesus.

Zac Poonen · Oct 25, 2022 · 59m
The central message is that preserving reverence for God in the church, especially among preachers, requires maintaining a constant fear of God. The speaker emphasizes that all Christians must be witnesses, and this calling demands speaking as if God Himself is speaking, not from personal wisdom or experience. He uses the Apostle Paul as an example of humble service, concluding that true spiritual endurance is found in recognizing one's weakness and remaining dependent on God's grace.

Manifesting Jesus' Life As We Die To Our Self-life - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 26, 2022 · 31m
The central message is that manifesting the life of Jesus requires the believer to die to their self-life, comparing this to a grain of wheat that must fall into the ground to bring forth much fruit. The speaker argues that earthly achievements, reputation, or even consistent church attendance are insufficient; true life for God is only revealed when the outer shell of self-will is broken open through affliction, perplexity, and submission. This process is necessary for the treasure—the life of Christ—to become manifest.
