Boost confidence and beat negative thinking

Leon FontaineLeadership

When bad things happen to you, are you surprised? Or did you think it was bound to happen sooner or later? If you often fight negative thinking, a recording in the back of your mind might play things like, “I knew this would never work out,” or “Of course I didn’t get that promotion. I’m a fraud and everyone knows it.” This negative type of thinking about your worth and your capabilities can prevent you from aiming higher in life. It causes you to imagine a future filled with setbacks and heartaches—a mediocre life that doesn’t come close to what you’re capable of. It can also kill the confidence you need to build a successful life. If you often feel down, suffer anxiety, lack confidence …

El Favor Reside en Usted

Leon FontaineEntregate

«¡Gloria a Dios en las alturas! ¡Paz en la tierra entre los hombres que gozan de su favor!» Lucas 2:14 (DHH) El favor de Dios reside en usted.   Como un creyente, usted tiene acceso a Su increíble poder, habilidad, resistencia, sabiduría y provisión. No es que usted simplemente tenga una pequeña ventaja sobre el resto del mundo. Estamos hablando del favor que hace a la gente voltear la cabeza y preguntarse, “¿Cómo hizo usted para llegar a donde está hoy?”   Si usted creció en una religión legalista, podría tener problemas con la idea del favor. Puede haber aprendido que usted necesita ganar el amor y la aceptación de Dios y entonces, la idea de que Dios le ha dado libremente todo lo que …

FAVOUR RESTS ON YOU

Leon FontaineDevoted

Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests. Luke 2:14 (NIV) God’s favour rests on you. As a believer, you have access to His incredible power, ability, stamina, wisdom and provision. It’s not that you have just a little advantage over the rest of the world. We’re talking about favour that makes people shake their head and ask, “How on earth did you get to where you are today?” If you grew up in legalistic religion, you might have trouble with the idea of favour. You may have learned that you need to earn God’s love and acceptance, so the idea that God has freely given you everything you need is foreign. Here’s the problem …

FAVOUR: THE KEY TO YOUR FUTURE

Leon FontaineDevoted

And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation]. 2 Corinthians 9:8 (AMP) Have you ever known someone who was the teacher’s favourite? They had preferential treatment with the teacher, right? Well, you have God’s favour as a believer, so you have preferential treatment with God! It’s not that God loves you more than anyone else on this planet, but there are great benefits to being His kid. When Moses led the Israelites out of slavery, they experienced this favour. God had prepared a …

Sueñe con las Promesas de Dios

—¿Cómo que “si puedes”? ¡Todo es posible para el que cree! Marcos 9:23 (DHH)   Cuando piensa en el futuro, ¿Qué se imagina?   Hay un gran poder en imaginar la vida de sus sueños, y no solo hablo de su carrera profesional o su situación financiera. Imagine un gran futuro en esas áreas, claro, pero ¿y qué hay de tener un sueño sobre a sus relaciones?   Si está casado, ¿tienen ustedes todavía grandes expectativas en cuanto a su vida juntos? Antes de que se casaran probablemente soñaron cómo sería su vida como pareja. Pero puede que hayan estado casados por un tiempo y hayan dejado morir ese sueño. Aún después de todas esas noches de insomnio, dolorosos malentendidos, peleas y decepciones, usted puede …
