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.

Zac Poonen - Knowing God - Our Father, our Forerunner, and our Helper
Zac Poonen · Mar 16, 2020 · 52m
The central message is that Christians must live in a constant, moment-by-moment dependence on God, mirroring the life of a branch connected to a tree. This continuous connection, facilitated by the Holy Spirit in the New Covenant, is what allows believers to bear fruit. Furthermore, true strength in the last days comes not from personal effort or good works, but from resting entirely on the imputed righteousness of Christ, which defeats the devil's accusations of guilt.

Zac Poonen · Mar 15, 2020 · 1h 41m
The speaker emphasizes that in the New Covenant, prophecy is not meant to direct people with specific commands, unlike in the Old Testament. Instead, it serves to prepare the church for the future, revealing things that are to come. He encourages the congregation to remain attentive to the Word of God, recognizing that the Holy Spirit guides the church in preparation for the days ahead.

Our Goodness Comes From God Alone - Charles Banna
Charles Banna · Mar 3, 2020 · 36m
The central message is that all good works and achievements are ultimately derived from God alone, not from human effort or boasting. The speaker uses examples from scripture, such as David's realization and Paul's conversion, to illustrate that true goodness comes through acknowledging one's depravity and relying on the grace and power of the Holy Spirit. The sermon emphasizes living life for the glory of God.

Freedom From All Condemnation - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 28, 2020 · 1h 3m
The speaker contrasts the Old Covenant, which is described as a 'Ministry of condemnation,' with the New Covenant, which is a 'Ministry of righteousness.' He emphasizes that believers should live under the grace of the New Covenant, which means accepting the righteousness of Christ rather than falling into self-condemnation. True conviction comes from the Holy Spirit, but this must not lead to condemning oneself or others, as this behavior mimics those who worship false gods.

The central message is the necessity of maintaining boldness and standing firm for Jesus Christ, regardless of the audience or pressure. The speaker draws parallels from Abraham's boldness, Peter and John's courage after receiving the Holy Spirit, and the danger of falling away, emphasizing that this boldness is sustained by constantly walking with the Lord. True discipleship requires unwavering commitment even when tested.

The Covering of Reproach on the Church - Zac Poonen & Santosh Poonen - February 16, 2020
Zac Poonen · Feb 19, 2020 · 14m
The central message is that building the church requires embracing the 'reproach of Christ,' which the speaker compares to considering Christ's reproach greater riches than the treasures of Egypt (worldliness). True discipleship involves following Jesus even when it leads to opposition, and the church must be understood not merely as a gathering, but as the living Body of Christ, which requires daily self-denial and being filled with the Holy Spirit.

God Gives His Holy Spirit To Widows - Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Jan 31, 2020 · 1h 1m
The speaker emphasizes that the ultimate mark of the fullness of the Holy Spirit is becoming holy, which involves humility and living under God's grace. He compares this to being constantly under a waterfall of grace, suggesting that pride is the only thing that causes one to step out of this grace. The message concludes by warning that the devil's true devouring is not through external attacks, but by leading one into the spirit of pride.

CFC Messages · Jan 17, 2020 · 4m 5s
The speaker addresses the difficulty of understanding the doctrine of the Trinity, asserting that God is three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) in one Godhead. He uses analogies to explain that while human understanding struggles with this concept, the biblical revelation through Jesus Christ confirms it. The discussion also touches upon the practice of baptism, emphasizing that naming the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ is the correct understanding.

The sermon emphasizes that as the end times approach, believers must be filled with the Holy Spirit and live with sound judgment. Using the example of the Samaritan woman and Zacchaeus, the speaker stresses that true assurance comes from knowing one is accepted in the beloved through Christ's righteousness, not from personal feelings or perceived achievements.

Santosh Poonen · Dec 30, 2019 · 48m
The speaker shares two key lessons learned: that a life of rest is what God intends for believers, and that the true test of being filled with the Holy Spirit is experiencing complete rest. He emphasizes that the mind set on the Spirit leads to life and peace, contrasting it with a mind set on the flesh, which is characterized by death, even if outward sin is controlled. The ultimate test of faith is maintaining peace and rest when life is unexpectedly shaken.

The speaker emphasizes that the ultimate evidence of the fullness of the Holy Spirit is becoming holy, which involves humility and living under God's grace. He explains that sin is overcome by remaining constantly immersed in this 'waterfall of grace,' which requires the entire being, including the mind, to be surrendered. Pride is identified as the primary barrier that causes this flow of grace to stop.

The central message is that the goal of the Christian life is to know Jesus and be transformed into His likeness, which involves learning about Him and following His commandments.

He concludes by focusing on John 4:34, interpreting Jesus' statement, "My meat and my food is to do the will of the one who sent me and to finish it," as the ultimate sustenance for Christian life.

The More Excellent Covenant - Santosh Poonen - December 1, 2019
Santosh Poonen · Dec 2, 2019 · 48m
The central message is that Christian life, particularly striving to be like Jesus, cannot be accomplished by human strength or effort, like a car trying to refuel itself. True ability to live a life of love and holiness comes only from God's Spirit, requiring us to cry out to Him rather than relying on self-effort. This dependence on God's divine power is compared to the infinite gap between human ability and God's wisdom.

Ian Robson · Nov 19, 2019 · 30m
The central message is that the distinguishing mark of a true Christian life and church is the presence and power of God working through believers. The speaker emphasizes that merely doing good works or having good fellowship is insufficient; one must be anointed with the Holy Spirit and power to truly help others and resist the devil. This divine presence is what sets believers apart from all others.

Zac Poonen · Nov 19, 2019 · 55m
The message emphasizes that true knowledge of God comes only through the Holy Spirit, which grants wisdom and revelation, moving beyond mere intellectual understanding.

Ultimately, knowing God means experiencing a life that reflects His nature, which is a lifelong pursuit.
