Sanjay Poonen - God Can Make the Impossible Possible
Speaker: Sanjay Poonen Title: God Can Make the Impossible Possible Date: 04/14/2024 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
Sanjay Poonen teaches that God empowers believers to accomplish the impossible through submission and faith, using the principle of a lever and fulcrum as a physical metaphor for how divine strength enables weakness. Drawing from Matthew 17 and 11:28-29, he emphasizes that rest comes through taking Jesus's yoke—learning his gentleness and humility—which paradoxically makes the weaker believer strongest, enabling them to overcome obstacles like temptation, peer pressure, and seemingly insurmountable challenges. The church's role is to help one another enter this place of rest and victory through encouragement and spiritual support.
