Zac Poonen · 9m · CFC Daily Devotions

Rejoice! You Are God's Inheritance (Don't Forget to LOL: Part 1) - Santosh Poonen - Feburary 7, 2016
Santosh Poonen · Feb 7, 2016 · 45m
The speaker discusses the dual ministry of the Word of God, comparing it to a surgeon's scalpel for cutting out infected sin, which discerns between soul and spirit. However, this cutting must be balanced by the restorative power of the Word, likened to rain and snow, which brings healing and life. True spiritual health requires recognizing and embracing the balance within the entire Body of Christ, acknowledging that no single individual is perfectly balanced.

The speaker shares testimonies of God's miracles, drawing parallels to biblical accounts like the feeding of the 5,000 and the oil during Hanukkah. The core message then shifts to the profound implication of Romans 6:23—that the wages of sin is death. He challenges the congregation to move beyond intellectual agreement with this truth, urging them to truly internalize that because they are bought at a price, everything they have rightfully belongs to God.

2. Keep me Away from Presumptuous Sin - Victor Ramanathan (துணிகரமான பாவத்திற்கு விலக்கி காரும்)
Victor Ramanathan · Jan 14, 2016 · 1h 13m
The sermon emphasizes the importance of recognizing and correcting sins while they are small, drawing parallels from David's life and Paul's experience. The central focus is on understanding 'presumptuous sins'—sins committed after one has been clearly warned or enlightened about the truth. Such sins demonstrate a willful disregard for the truth received, which is a serious matter for believers.

The message emphasizes that Christian living requires a commitment to fleeing far from sin, not just staying a little distance away, drawing a parallel from the story of Sodom. Furthermore, the speaker stresses that true Christian life is characterized by being led by God in triumph in Christ, which means having freedom from sin and peace with God. Finally, the core commandment is identified as loving one another, which is presented as the overarching principle of obedience.

Jeremy Utley - Three Lessons From A Difficulty
Jeremy Utley · Jan 12, 2016 · 13m
The speaker shares three lessons learned from a difficult week, beginning with the necessity of being attentive to hindrances in prayer, which can arise from holding back personal desires. He also cautions against misinterpreting God's promise of escape, clarifying that God delivers us from temptation, not necessarily from the difficulty itself. Finally, he emphasizes that avoiding conflict or difficulty means forfeiting the opportunity to overcome sin and grow.

Bobby McDonald - It's Only In Your Will That I Am Free
Bobby McDonald · Jan 6, 2016 · 14m
The speaker emphasizes that true freedom and rest are found only in aligning oneself with God's will. He draws parallels between spiritual freedom and physical restitution, using the example of Zacchaeus, who not only apologized for his sins but also made amends. Ultimately, maintaining a clean conscience by walking in the light is necessary to experience the cleansing power of Christ and find peace.

3rd January 2016 - Pilgrim's Progress - What We Learn From It - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Jan 3, 2016 · 1h 59m
The sermon uses John Bunyan's *Pilgrim's Progress* to illustrate the seriousness of sin and the necessity of salvation through Christ. It emphasizes that true conviction about sin leads one to follow the narrow path to salvation, even when mocked by family and friends. The message warns against those who approach salvation lightly, comparing them to 'Compromiser,' who lacks the deep burden of sin.

Bobby McDonald - Jesus Suffered Shame And Humiliation For Me
Bobby McDonald · Dec 28, 2015 · 10m
The speaker emphasizes that true understanding of God's word requires having the love of God in one's heart, comparing this to needing a clear lens to see the truth. He draws from scripture to show that recognizing our own sinfulness and the depth of God's forgiveness leads to a greater love for God. The sermon concludes by focusing on the profound humiliation Jesus endured, suggesting that the shame before the Father was greater than the shame of man.

Jeremy Utley - Short Circuit The Sin Cycle
Jeremy Utley · Dec 21, 2015 · 11m
The sermon uses the example of Israel's tendency to reclaim what God has given, contrasting it with Joseph's initial success, to warn believers about complacency. The central message is the need for constant vigilance against the flesh's tendency to rebuild or reclaim areas surrendered to God, even after spiritual progress. The speaker emphasizes that sanctification is an ongoing process requiring diligence to guard against old habits regaining power.

By Whose Authority? Part 3: Submission and Exaltation - Santosh Poonen - December 13, 2015
Santosh Poonen · Dec 14, 2015 · 52m
The speaker emphasizes that true spiritual authority comes from diligent study of God's Word, making it personal rather than just hearing it preached. He contrasts worldly or authoritarian displays of power with the quiet, inherent authority Jesus demonstrated. Ultimately, he warns that the Devil gains advantage not from external enemies, but from internal sins like lust, pride, bitterness, and unforgiveness, which must be brought into the light of God.

Bobby McDonald - Fleeing from gossip
Bobby McDonald · Nov 23, 2015 · 8m
The central message is to actively resist participating in gossip and tearing others down, drawing parallels between this behavior and the sin described in Proverbs 11. The speaker emphasizes that Christians should not join in conversations that mock or slander others, instead choosing to let their light shine through faithful conduct and careful speech. Ultimately, the focus is on maintaining purity in speech and refusing to align oneself with the world's negative patterns.

Destroying the Works of the Devil- Part 3 - Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Nov 10, 2015 · 1h 30m
The speaker emphasizes that true assurance of salvation comes not just from God's past forgiveness, but from faith in the future certainty of Christ's work. He uses the analogy of a thoroughly cleansed stain to illustrate that sin is completely removed by Jesus, and believers must consciously choose to trust God's non-remembrance over their memory of past sins when confronted by the devil or doubt.

Destroying the Works of the Devil- Part 2-Santosh Poonen
Santosh Poonen · Nov 10, 2015 · 1h 15m
The speaker emphasizes that true ministry should aim not to impress, but to point people back to the source of truth—the Chef in the kitchen. He warns against the danger of accepting partial truths presented by the devil, whose greatest tactic is deception rather than overt evil. Ultimately, destroying the works of the devil involves recognizing this deception and allowing the Holy Spirit to restore what has been stolen.

The speaker emphasizes that all life and blessings are gifts of God's pure mercy, as humanity only deserved the wrath of God due to sin. He warns against judging others' suffering, noting that God often uses difficult circumstances to prompt self-examination and repentance. The message concludes with warnings from scripture regarding the danger of sin crouching at the door and the ultimate betrayal shown by those who are offended by God's grace or rebuke.

The speaker emphasizes the critical importance of understanding scripture in its full context, warning against quoting verses in isolation. He uses examples from 1 John 1:7 and John 10 to illustrate how omitting conditions can lead to misunderstanding or deception. The core message is that one must study the entire scripture to avoid being misled by half-truths.

The speaker discusses the root cause of many sins and relational difficulties in Christians, comparing it to the insecurity felt by orphans. This deep-seated insecurity, which stems from a loss of perfect intimacy with God (like Adam losing God in Eden), leads to jealousy, possessiveness, and an inability to accept rebuke. The message ultimately points to the power and sufficiency found in Jesus' name and the reality of Christ's sacrifice.

The message emphasizes that true security and protection from the enemy come only from having the Lord as one's ultimate desire, surpassing all earthly ambitions or desires. The speaker cautions against serving any idol, including the desire for human honor, which can lead to spiritual injury and backsliding. Ultimately, one's calling is to fulfill their God-given ministry, whether it is healing, bearing fruit, or providing new wine, rather than seeking to rule over others.

Jeremy Utley - Mourning over the "small sins"
Jeremy Utley · Oct 19, 2015 · 21m
The speaker emphasizes that Christian life requires a commitment to pleasing God, which involves both cleansing ourselves of sin and restoring what has been neglected. Drawing from 2 Chronicles 29, he suggests that true worship requires us to invite Jesus, the High Priest, into our hearts to clean out all uncleanness. Furthermore, he stresses the importance of mourning over even 'small sins,' noting that this brokenheartedness is necessary to fully experience God's comfort and ministry.

He shares lessons from Jesus's ministry, referencing Peter sinking while walking on water, and emphasizes the importance of diligently preserving the spiritual truths (treasure) learned from God, as taught in Matthew 13. The core message is to remain faithful and continually draw strength from God's Word.

SO GREAT A SALVATION: 3.The Power Of True Grace - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 22, 2015 · 1h 12m
The sermon emphasizes that true grace is more than just forgiveness; it requires understanding the profound cost of sin and the sacrifice of Christ. The speaker warns against seeking the approval of men, calling it idolatry, and stresses that sin is far more serious than minor offenses. Ultimately, believers must grasp the immense value of Christ's blood, recognizing that willfully sinning after knowing the truth is a grave matter.

The speaker discusses the glory of God, drawing from Jesus' actions at Cana, emphasizing that Jesus' desire was to please only the Father, not the people. The message extends to how God's love, even when manifesting as judgment (like in Zephaniah), ultimately serves the long-term good of freeing us from sin and idolatry. Furthermore, the speaker encourages believers to increase their faith, citing Abraham's example of growing stronger in faith even when God's promises were delayed.

5.Jesus Overcame In Weakness (Иисус победил в слабость) - Zac Poonen (Russian)
Zac Poonen · Sep 17, 2015 · 1h 1m
The sermon explains that the Old Testament serves as a shadow pointing toward fulfillment in the New Testament, using examples like the Sabbath and tithes to teach obedience to God. It emphasizes two key spiritual journeys: the Exodus from Egypt (representing freedom from sin/the world) and the subsequent departure from Babylon (representing freedom from legalism and empty traditions). True Christian life requires a complete separation from the world's systems, making the spiritual battle against Satan the primary focus.

The message emphasizes that what defiles a person is not what enters them from outside, but what proceeds out of their heart and thoughts. Evil thoughts, such as fornications, theft, and slander, originate internally, making the thought life the source of pollution. Therefore, true sanctification and victory over sin must begin with controlling one's thoughts.

Bobby McDonald · Aug 10, 2015 · 19m
The speaker summarizes the Book of Romans, stating that humanity is inherently sinful and hopeless, making God's justification through Jesus Christ the only hope. He emphasizes that believers should strive to live Christlike lives empowered by the Holy Spirit, build up the church, and love their enemies. Ultimately, the message centers on relying completely on God's mercy through faith in Jesus, rather than personal works.
