September 8 | Daily Devotion | The Free Gift Of Righteousness Clothes Repentant Sinners | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 7, 2025 · 9m
The message emphasizes that true righteousness comes solely through faith in Christ, not through personal moral uprightness or adherence to the law. The speaker uses Paul's testimony to illustrate that even a life of perfect conduct is insufficient before God; one must realize that all personal righteousness is like 'filthy rags.'

Righteousness With Peace And Joy - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 7, 2025 · 1h 7m

Humility, not gifting or status, is the key to eternal reward.

Zac Poonen · Sep 5, 2025 · 11m

September 4 | Daily Devotion | Testimony To The World And To Satan Through The Church | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Sep 3, 2025 · 9m
True spiritual fullness requires total self-surrender to God, not just religious effort.

Zac Poonen · Sep 2, 2025 · 12m
The central message emphasizes that Christians must prioritize seeking God's kingdom above all personal interests in every area of life, including education, relationships, and finances.

Zac Poonen · Aug 31, 2025 · 11m

August 31 | Daily Devotion | The True Church Helps You To Be Free From Sin | Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Aug 30, 2025 · 12m
The true church is not defined by a building or denomination but by its adherence to the truth that sets believers free from sin, as taught by Jesus. True Christian life requires believers to be built together in fellowship, like bricks in a structure, rather than existing in isolation. Furthermore, following Christ means walking the narrow way, which necessitates actively forgiving others, as God's forgiveness is conditional upon our own willingness to forgive.
