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.

Santosh Poonen · Jun 16, 2024 · 1m
The central message is that God is not concerned with the duration since a person last sinned or fell, but rather with the presence of faith in the present moment. True faith is demonstrated by depending on God today, regardless of past failures. Jesus exemplified this by depending on the Father every single day of His life.

Santosh Poonen · Jun 10, 2024 · 1h 12m

Santosh Poonen · May 30, 2024 · 1m
When you fail, resist the urge to self-condemn; instead, turn to Christ's voice. The speaker encourages listeners to silence the critical voice of self-blame and instead invite the voice of Jesus, who promises love, support, and the assurance that the believer will be conformed into Christ's image.

Self-condemnation will never lead you to victory! #santoshpoonen youtu.be/xFZFcl63bCQ
Santosh Poonen · May 28, 2024 · 1m
The speaker warns against the spiritual trap of self-condemnation, noting that whether one commends or condemns oneself, the source remains the self that must be put to death. Condemning oneself for past sins does not prove anything to God or oneself; the underlying problem remains unresolved.

Santosh Poonen · May 17, 2024 · 55s
The speaker emphasizes that just as God saved the listener from sin, He is able to fill them with the Holy Spirit. He encourages the audience to remember Psalm 81:10 and to approach God with the same open, needy heart they had when seeking forgiveness. The central message is to ask God to fill them with the Holy Spirit in the same way they were filled with grace when forgiven.

Annie Poonen · May 17, 2024 · 44m
The sermon focuses on the parable of the sower, emphasizing that the soil represents the heart and the seed is the word of the Kingdom of God. A key message is the necessity of having a heart poor in spirit, recognizing one's need for God's grace. The speaker specifically addresses spiritual hardness, comparing it to rocks in the soil, and urges listeners to allow the Holy Spirit to remove deep-seated bitterness, unforgiveness, and past hurts to make their hearts ready for God's word.

The sermon emphasizes the importance of taking God's Word literally, paying attention to every detail like periods and commas, as these hold divine significance. The speaker uses examples from scripture to illustrate that true faith involves believing and obeying God's word exactly as written, contrasting this with the doubts sown by the devil or human pride. Ultimately, the message calls for believers to confess their sins, trust in God's forgiveness, and actively forgive others to receive God's full pardon.

The central message is that Jesus desires only willingness from us, drawing a contrast with the Pharisees.

The speaker advises that to hear God's voice, one must maintain a clear conscience by confessing sins and making amends. Furthermore, regular meditation on Scripture is crucial, as God has provided His voice through written word. Assurance in Christ comes from believing God's promises, such as John 6:37, rather than relying on feelings. Finally, the speaker distinguishes between judging (condemning) and discerning, emphasizing that while we must avoid bad company for purity, only God has the authority to judge.

Ajay Chakravarthy · Mar 18, 2024 · 42m
The central message is the urgency of seeking the Lord while there is still an opportunity for salvation, comparing this to safety instructions on an airplane. The speaker emphasizes that every person will stand before God one day, making eternal salvation far more critical than earthly preparedness. He uses the stories of John Harper and the Ant/Grasshopper analogy to warn against procrastination in accepting Christ.

A Living Church is Engaged in Spiritual Warfare -- Santosh Poonen -- November 29, 2023
Santosh Poonen · Nov 30, 2023 · 17m
The central message is that every member of the church, regardless of age, must actively participate in spiritual warfare. Authority over Satan is granted to those who have a clear conscience, meaning they have repented of all sins, especially pride. This authority is exercised not just through dramatic confrontations, but by quietly resisting Satan's influence in any situation where he tries to gain a foothold, trusting in the power of Jesus Christ.
