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.

The message emphasizes that true understanding of God's calling and our identity as children of God comes through the Holy Spirit, not just intellectual agreement. The speaker points to scriptures like Romans 8:16, Psalm 147, and Ephesians 1:4 to assure the listeners that God knew them before the world began. The core message is to rest in these eternal truths and not be overcome by fear or doubt.

The True Circumcision of the New Covenant - Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Apr 28, 2021 · 1h 4m
The speaker draws a parallel between the physical circumcision of the Old Covenant and the 'true circumcision' required for the New Covenant. This true mark of discipleship is characterized by three things: worshipping in the Spirit of God, glorifying Christ Jesus, and having no confidence in the flesh. He emphasizes that true commitment requires obedience and devotion solely to glorifying God in one's life, marriage, family, and church.

The sermon discusses sin, defining it as falling short of God's glory, and addresses the problem of how God can deal with sin without unjustly punishing the sinner. It emphasizes that Jesus Christ's sacrifice, symbolized by His blood, covers sins, and that believers should not expose the sins of others, as God is merciful. The message concludes by contrasting Adam's disobedience with Christ's obedience, noting that God gives the Holy Spirit to help believers live according to Christ's nature.

The central message is that true spiritual strength is found not in personal ability, but in acknowledging one's weakness and relying entirely on Christ's power. The speaker corrects the common saying, emphasizing that when we are weak, Christ is strong, drawing from 2 Corinthians 12. He urges listeners to examine themselves, recognizing that our natural tendency is to trust in our own strength, whether through self-reliance or worldly means, rather than in the Spirit of Christ.

The service focused heavily on the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, drawing parallels to Pentecost and the quenching of spiritual thirst. The speaker encouraged the congregation to cry out for the Spirit's anointing to fill their lives, addressing areas of dryness, self-seeking, and spiritual deficit. The prayer time covered breaking strongholds, addictions, and sins, while also lifting up physical, financial, and general needs, concluding with a reminder that hope is found in Christ, not earthly wealth.

The central message is that receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit requires a radical, maximum-effort attitude of gratitude, rather than merely aiming for the minimum requirements to get to heaven. The speaker uses the analogy of a house with many rooms, emphasizing that believers must willingly open every area of their lives—including finances and habits—to the Spirit, as locking any door prevents the Spirit from filling that part of their life.

The central message emphasizes that the devil's goal is to distort the true image of God and Christ in the hearts of believers. This distortion can manifest as misunderstanding God's love, which requires the Holy Spirit to reveal God's truth through experience, not just intellectual knowledge. The speaker repeatedly points to Romans 8, highlighting that Jesus is interceding for believers, and that the Spirit testifies with us that we are adopted children of God, allowing us to cry out 'Abba, Father.'

Bobby McDonald - Some lessons at home during COVID
Bobby McDonald · Mar 16, 2021 · 21m
The speaker draws lessons from the COVID-19 lockdown, comparing the experience to the wilderness journey described in Deuteronomy 8. He emphasizes that true spiritual growth comes not only from major life changes but more profoundly from paying close attention to God's guidance in small, daily moments. A disciple must cultivate an attentive spirit, constantly checking motives and being sensitive to the Spirit's whispers, as exemplified by recognizing God's kindness even in mundane situations like adjusting shower temperature.

Lukewarmness Comes From Having Need of Nothing -- Santosh Poonen -- March 14, 2021
Santosh Poonen · Mar 15, 2021 · 39m
The sermon warns against spiritual lukewarmness, drawing heavily from Revelation 3's message to the church in Laodicea. Jesus condemns this state because it signifies that the believers feel rich and have 'need of nothing,' meaning they no longer rely on God's filling or the Holy Spirit. True spiritual life requires acknowledging our need for God, rather than becoming self-sufficient.

Seek for the Pure Godly Wisdom (Message to Women) -- Annie Poonen -- March 10, 2021
Annie Poonen · Mar 11, 2021 · 41m
The message emphasizes the pursuit of godly wisdom, drawing parallels between the process of building a house with wisdom and the deep, often painful, chiseling work of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. True wisdom requires unlearning worldly knowledge and embracing purity of heart, which is necessary to see God in every situation, much like a newborn baby's pure gaze. The ultimate goal is to allow God to break us down so that we can be strong pillars that bring glory to His name.

God Wants Us To Build Fellowship - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Mar 9, 2021 · 30m
The central message is that the primary purpose of gathering together is to build fellowship, which is distinct from mere friendship. True fellowship requires believers to walk in the light in their personal lives. Furthermore, the speaker emphasizes that believers must continually strive for perfection, mirroring Christ in thoughts, words, and motives, and that this process should be guided by the Holy Spirit.

Annie Poonen - O To Be Like Jesus
Annie Poonen · Mar 1, 2021 · 9m
The central goal for Christians is to become an exact reflection of Jesus Christ. This transformation must happen both individually through personal purity and corporately by functioning fully within the local church. The message emphasizes drawing strength from the Holy Spirit to achieve this likeness to Christ.

The speaker addresses questions regarding sin, emphasizing that true faith involves helplessly depending on God, like a branch on a vine. He stresses that the motive behind actions is more important than the action itself, and that believers should focus on Jesus' finished work on the cross rather than fearing the devil. Furthermore, he contrasts the Old Covenant law with the New Covenant, emphasizing that the Holy Spirit reveals the presence and glory of Jesus, which is essential for overcoming sin.

Jeremy Utley - What Prevents Me from Enjoying the Fullness of the Holy Spirit?
Jeremy Utley · Feb 24, 2021 · 11m
God is eager to give the Holy Spirit, as demonstrated by Jesus's initiative with the woman at the well. However, James 4:5 reveals that God jealously desires our hearts, meaning we must empty ourselves of other loves and idols for Him to fill us. We must be ready to welcome the 'whip-bearer'—the necessary confrontation—when God calls us to surrender our whole hearts to Him.

Zac Poonen - Seek Earnestly to be Filled with the Holy Spirit Continually
Zac Poonen · Feb 22, 2021 · 36m
The true Christian life is characterized by a continuous state of 'dissatisfied satisfaction,' meaning one rests in the assurance of forgiveness and justification through Christ while remaining dissatisfied with one's own sinfulness and desire to become more like Jesus. This pursuit requires continually being filled with the Holy Spirit, which empowers every member of the body of Christ to manifest gifts for the common good, regardless of perceived limitations like shyness or lack of visible gifts.

Bobby McDonald - Having a Burden to be Filled With The Holy Spirit
Bobby McDonald · Feb 22, 2021 · 23m
The central message is the necessity of actively seeking to be filled with the Holy Spirit, drawing from the command in Ephesians 5:18. The speaker shares his personal journey of realizing that seeking the Spirit is not optional but a vital pursuit, comparing the Spirit's gift to a highly valuable stamp that many Christians overlook. He encourages the audience to have the faith and vision to recognize and grasp the immense value of what God offers through the Spirit.

Olu Talabi · Feb 8, 2021 · 38m
The speaker warns that the devil is actively working to bring division and confusion to the body of Christ because he knows his time is short. He urges the congregation to remain sober, vigilant, and ready for the imminent return of Jesus Christ. The central message is to observe the signs around us, learning from the parable of the fig tree, and to remain focused on Christ's return despite worldly distractions and scoffers who doubt the promise.

The speaker encourages listeners to deeply ponder the question, "What is it that you are seeking?" Drawing from John 1:37-38, he emphasizes that simply claiming to follow Jesus is not enough; one must actively and honestly answer this question. True desire for Christ must be the sole passion, which is ultimately the work of the Holy Spirit, leading to a life conformed to Christ's attributes.

The central message emphasizes that Christian faith must move beyond mere hearing of the Word to visible, lived-out reality in daily life. Drawing from 1 John, the speaker stresses that true fellowship involves seeing the Word lived out by believers. Furthermore, the sermon urges the congregation to actively seek the Holy Spirit's intervention to remove the 'veil' from their hearts, allowing them to experience God's glory, which is a continuous process of transformation from glory to glory.

The speaker shares personal reflections on the importance of patience, particularly in fatherhood, drawing from Psalm 101 and 1 Corinthians 13. He emphasizes that true love requires patience, and this virtue is cultivated not through techniques, but by intently 'beholding' the glory of Jesus in scripture, allowing the Holy Spirit to transform us from glory to glory. The ultimate example of this gentle patience is seen in Jesus interacting with a child in Mark 9.
