Zac Poonen - God Can Restore To Us All That We Have Lost
Summary
The central message is that God restores what we lose through submission to difficult circumstances and mutual encouragement. Drawing from Old Testament examples like Joseph, Moses, and David, the speaker argues that God uses trials—including misunderstanding and false accusation—to prepare us for ministry. Christians must remain humble, actively seeking encouragement from all members of the church to avoid spiritual hardening.

Zac Poonen · Mar 21, 2026
Based on David's recovery of all that was lost after an enemy raid (1 Samuel 30), Zac Poonen teaches that God restores what has been taken from us—spiritually, relationally, and materially. When we encourage ourselves in the Lord and seek His guidance, He enables us to recover everything lost through our own failures, backsliding, or the enemy's theft, just as Jesus recovered all that Satan stole from us. This principle extends to the church's recovery of apostolic truth over the centuries.
