May 8 | Daily Devotion | Suffer In Your Flesh To Cease From Sin
Summary
The speaker emphasizes the profound warning in 1 Peter 4:1: suffering in the flesh leads to ceasing from sin. He argues that many Christians are content with a certain level of sin, but true progress requires taking this verse seriously. The speaker clarifies that 'flesh' in the New Testament refers not just to the physical body, but primarily to one's self-will, suggesting that holiness means yielding to God's will rather than asserting personal will.

Zac Poonen · May 7, 2026
Zac Poonen teaches that true freedom from sin comes through surrendering self-will to God's will, based on 1 Peter 4:1. He explains that "suffering in the flesh" means yielding one's self-will, and that sin fundamentally stems from doing one's own will rather than God's will, illustrated by Jesus' perfect obedience and reliance on the Holy Spirit.
