Podcasts about 2 corinthians 12:9

There's one essential Truth every believer must grasp: grace equals power—supernatural power that can raise a dead soul to life and carry you through the darkest seasons. In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef anchors your heart in God's promise to Paul: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Dr. Youssef explains why thorns matter: without weakness, we would rarely see—or be able to testify to—the sufficiency of God's grace. Grace is most clearly displayed when self-reliance collapses, when circumstances feel heavy, and when you realize you need God more than you need relief. You'll also be reminded of God's steadfast commitment to finish what He started in you (Philippians 1:6), to empower you for godly living (2 Peter 1:3), and to keep you secure in His hands forever (John 10:28–29). No sin is beyond the atoning reach of Christ's blood, and no trial is too dark for the Gospel's sustaining hope (2 Corinthians 4:16–18). If you've been staring so long at the thorn that you can't see the rose of grace, this devotional calls you to look up—remember God's promises—and rejoice in the power of His sufficient grace. Prayer: Lord, help me to take my eyes off my thorn. May my gaze instead be fixed upon Your throne. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God's grace given me through the working of his power” (Ephesians 3:7). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

Have you slipped into self-sufficiency—trying to navigate life with your own wisdom, grit, and ingenuity—only to feel discouraged, depleted, or stuck? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds you that God never intended you to live on human strength. Paul learned this firsthand through his persistent “thorn,” pleading for relief—only to hear God's life-changing answer: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Instead of viewing weakness as failure, Paul came to see it as the very place where Christ's power rests most clearly—turning hardship into holy dependence and defeat into spiritual strength. Dr. Youssef also highlights Paul's prayer in Colossians 1:9–12, showing what God's power is meant to produce in everyday life: deeper understanding of God's will, a life that pleases the Lord, fruitfulness in good works, growing knowledge of God, and supernatural endurance marked by joyful gratitude. God doesn't only want you to acknowledge Him as Creator—He wants you to know His power personally, especially when you feel weakest. Prayer: Mighty God, thank You for Your power that is available to me personally. Forgive me for the times I have worked in my own strength instead of finding my rest in You. Help me to depend on Your power today so that I can serve You and those You have put in my life. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe” (Ephesians 1:18-19).

The moments where I feel I am not enough. The weight I have been carrying. I place it in Your hands. I release the pressure to be strong on my own. I release the fear of not measuring up. I release the burden of trying to do everything perfectly. I release it to You. And now, I receive. I receive grace that covers me. I receive strength within my weakness. I receive peace that steadies my heart. Jesus, be my strength.Carry me where I feel weak. Lift me where I feel low. Remind me that Your power is working in me. I receive.

Everyone has weaknesses—but not everyone knows what to do with them.In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes a subtle trap the enemy uses to keep believers restless: refusing to confront our weaknesses. Whether your struggle is physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual, unresolved weakness can breed discontentment and quietly drain your joy—unless you apply God's grace to the very places that hurt.Dr. Youssef takes you to Paul's “thorn in the flesh” and the breakthrough lesson God taught him:“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9).You'll discover why the most important part of any trial isn't the struggle itself—but how you respond to it. If you've ever felt like God's grace “isn't enough,” this episode helps you diagnose what's really happening: either you're fixated on the problem instead of His grace, or you're avoiding the issue entirely. The way forward is not denial or despair—it's honest dependence on Christ.You'll also be reminded that Jesus is not distant from your struggle. He understands your weakness with compassion—and He invites you to come to Him for strength and mercy (Hebrews 4:15).Scripture Focus: 2 Corinthians 12:9 The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission.

God designs suffering not only as a way to wean Christians off of self and onto grace, but also as a way to spotlight that grace and make it shine.

Broadcasting live from the lobby just after the close of the 2025 Thee Generation Youth Summit, Bobby and Dr. Jim reflect on a week where teens embraced total surrender and dependence—and where a public final rally saw 16–17 salvation decisions. The conversation highlights student recruiting efforts, the back-and-forth team competitions (Army edged it at the end), and the deeper theme: weakness is the doorway to Christ's power, right now, not someday. They also note that livestreams and session recordings will be released in sequence so listeners can revisit the story God wrote this week.Topics DiscussedFinal-night rally & salvation decisions (16–17 indicated).Teens trained and sent to recruit—overcoming fear by leaning into 2 Corinthians 12:9.The gospel's power when simply given.Team competitions and a razor-close finish (Army on top).“More than conquerors”: identity and present-tense victory in Christ.Upcoming release of livestreams and session recordings in order.Key TakeawaysGod met teens as they stepped out in weakness; dependence became strength in action.Evangelism is for now: teens recruited friends, and many responded to the gospel.Friendly competition builds momentum, but the Word and the Spirit do the eternal work.Revisit the week in sequence when the recordings drop to let the theme sink in. If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review. That would help tremendously in getting the word out and raising the visibility of the Thee Generation for others.

Sometimes God makes seemingly strong people weaker so that his divine power will be the more evident.
