Be Filled With The Holy Spirit

Zac PoonenI saw a cartoon once of the disciples waiting in the upper room to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:12-14). (We know now that they waited for ten days, but at that time, none of them knew how long they would have to wait.) One of them walks out of the door on the ninth day, saying that he is t... Read More

Clear Your Debt to the Whole World and to the Church

Zac PoonenIn 2 Kings 4:1 to 7, we read of a preacher's widow who was in debt. It's a sad thing when husbands die and leave their wives with a debt. That's something all of us should avoid at any cost. And preachers especially should avoid getting into debt because that is a bad testimony. Now the creditor had... Read More

God Needs Women

Zac PoonenGod needs women today who will faithfully portray through their lives, the glory that He originally intended to manifest through a woman, when He created Eve. Her Glory As Man's Helper When God made Eve, it was in order that she might be a helper suitable for man (Gen. 2:18). The glory of this minis... Read More

The Blessing of Abraham

Zac PoonenThe Bible says that the gift of the Holy Spirit is meant to bring to us "the blessing of Abraham" (Gal.3:14). When God blessed Abraham, He told him, "I will bless you and you will be a blessing. In you all the families of the earth will be blessed..." (Gen.12:2-3). There are two parts to that blessi...

The Endowment of Power

Zac PoonenThe first apostles had forsaken everything to follow Jesus. But they still had to wait until they were baptized in the Holy Spirit before they could go out and fulfil their God-ordained ministry. Jesus Himself needed to be anointed with the Holy Spirit and power before He could begin His public mini... Read More

The Glory of Dwelling in the Most Holy Place

Zac PoonenThe Old Testament tabernacle had three parts to it - the outer court, the holy place and the most holy place - representing three parts of the full gospel. In the outer court, there were the altar of sacrifice and the laver of water (for washing). The altar represents the message of 'Christ crucifie... Read More

The Spirit And The Cross

Zac PoonenThere is perhaps no clearer description of the Spirit- filled life than in Paul's statement in Galatians 2:20, “I am crucified with Christ. It is no longer I but Christ that lives in me." For what is the purpose of the fullness of the Spirit if not to reproduce the life of Jesus in us? And so the me... Read More

The Spirit of Grace and Power

Zac PoonenI want to speak today on grace and power in the Holy Spirit. I want to begin with the first promise in the New Testament. Yesterday I mentioned, that when we come to the Word of God, if we don’t come with an open mind, we may not see new truths. We’ll see the old truths again and again, and perhaps ... Read More

The Truth About Speaking in Tongues

Zac Poonen"Every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation (change)" (James. 1:17). God never makes a mistake, He never changes and He gives only perfect gifts. Therefore when He gave the gift of "speaking in unknown languages" ("tongues") to the church... Read More
