LA FUERZA DE LAS MUJERES

Leon FontaineEntregate

Cierta mujer, que había sido esposa de uno de los profetas, fue a quejarse a Eliseo, diciéndole:—Mi marido ha muerto, y usted sabe que él honraba al Señor. Ahora el prestamista ha venido y quiere llevarse a mis dos hijos como esclavos. 2 Reyes 4:1 (DHH)  Con el Día de la Madre que se celebra este fin de semana, me gustaría aprovechar esta oportunidad para hablar sobre una madre inspiradora en la Biblia. Su historia aparece en 2 Reyes 4, y creo que lo animará a mantenerse firme en la fe.  La historia comienza con la petición desesperada de esta mujer a Eliseo. Solo imagine la agonía de esta mujer. No solo había perdido a su marido, sino que sus hijos estaban a punto de serle …

CREATING GENERATIONAL FAITH

Leon FontaineDevoted

“I will confirm my covenant with you and your descendants after you, from generation to generation. This is the everlasting covenant: I will always be your God and the God of your descendants after you.” Genesis 17:7 (NLT) God is all about generations. In fact, one of the reasons He chose to make the old covenant with Abraham was because of how Abraham viewed family. God knew this man would pass his faith down to the next generation. Parents, don’t let this world remove the incredible honour and importance of raising your children. It’s not just a side hustle or a part-time job. We have a responsibility to make sure each generation is being prepared to serve God. Since Mother’s Day is this month, I …

FILL YOUR FAMILY’S IMAGINATION

“But watch out! Be careful never to forget what you yourself have seen. Do not let these memories escape from your mind as long as you live! And be sure to pass them on to your children and grandchildren.” Deuteronomy 4:9 (NLT) Yesterday we saw how Paul’s young protégé, Timothy, was incredibly impacted by his grandmother. She instilled great faith in her daughter, who passed it on to Timothy. As parents and grandparents, we need to fill our family’s imagination with God’s Word. Psalm 78:4 (NLT) says, “We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord, about his power and his mighty wonders.” God’s principles are so powerful that when you teach them …

RECONOZCA LOS ATAQUES

Leon FontaineEntregate

Así que no debemos cansarnos de hacer el bien; porque si no nos desanimamos, a su debido tiempo cosecharemos. Gálatas 6:9 (DHH)  Con mucha frecuencia, renunciamos a los milagros en los que creemos para nuestras vidas. La Biblia dice: no te canses de hacer el bien, porque si no desmayas, vas a recibir.  El agotamiento es de la mente, mientras que el cansancio es del cuerpo. Si usted está realmente cansado, puede descansar y recuperar energía. Pero superar el agotamiento requiere un cambio de mentalidad. Se trata de superar el desaliento y cambiar el enfoque para que usted pueda creer de nuevo. Necesitamos reconocer cuándo estamos siendo atacados por el enemigo en nuestra fe.  Es interesante notar que estos ataques intentan hacer que cambiemos nuestro …

IMPACTING GENERATIONS

Leon FontaineDevoted

You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:15 (NLT) I have the utmost respect for the women in my life: my wife, four daughters, and my mom. To watch their strength and love for God and family is incredible. Many people in today’s society act as if being a mom isn’t important or special. But that’s not what God’s Word says at all. Moms have a tremendous impact. In 2 Timothy 3:15 (MSG), Paul urged young Timothy: “Stick with what you learned and believed, sure of the integrity of your teachers—why, you took in the sacred Scriptures with your mother’s milk!” As a mother prays …
