Taking the fountain - part 2

(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The biblical passage from Isaiah 35:1-2 speaks of an eschatological vision of the restoration of Israel, where the desert and wasteland will flourish and bloom like the rose. From this passage, the author emphasizes that God's plan for us is to take from His source of living water to flourish. However, to achieve flourishing, we must follow certain processes, just like the natural process of sowing, such as preparing the ground, planting, fertilizing, watering, allowing it to sunbathe, and caring for what is planted. We must be intentional and determine to enter into a process to improve in areas that need improvement. God expects us to be productive and flourish, but we must enter into a process and work on the areas that need to be worked on. Barren ground will flourish, and God will make the changes while we are about to change, helping us in the process. The desert will bloom, and we will flourish abundantly in the Lord, and God desires to do it with us.
The sermon discusses the concept of flourishing in the Lord and how to achieve it. The speaker emphasizes the need to deny oneself and forgive oneself and others in order to flourish. Taking from the source, fertilizing and irrigating our spiritual lives with the word of God, prayer, and fasting is also important. The speaker notes that God is our source of water and light, and that we need to rest in the grace of God to flourish. The passage from Hosea is used to illustrate how God promises to make His people flourish like a lily, spread their roots like Lebanon, and have a glory like that of the olive tree.
The message is about the process of flourishing in God's time, and the importance of patience and diligence during the waiting period. The speaker cites the vision of the river in Ezekiel 47, where the river of God's presence brings life and abundance to the desert and dead places. The speaker emphasizes the need to guard our hearts and not despair during times of waiting, and to strengthen ourselves and encourage others who may be struggling. The message reminds us that God's grace is enough and that we will certainly flourish in His time.
In order to flourish in life, we must trust in God and His timing. We must also encourage and strengthen others who may be struggling. God wants us to bloom and be productive, but we must also believe and declare His blessings over our lives. We must learn to turn negative situations into positive ones and take action to achieve our goals. Only by taking from the source, God, can we truly flourish and extend His kingdom through our lives. So let us lift our hearts to God and receive His blessings for our lives.
The sermon is about receiving God's blessings and being productive in the Lord. The speaker encourages the listeners to raise their hands and receive what God has for them. The Lord pours out abundant blessings like rain, refreshing and revitalizing the listeners. The sermon is available to listen and watch on the website, along with other recorded presentations and a sermon archive.

The theme, we continue with the same main theme, taking from the source, but the theme is more specific that we are going to share now in the afternoon, it is entitled "Taking from the source to flourish." We are all called to flourish but before going into the subject I want to thank my daughter-in-law, María, come over there, my daughter-in-law that I took a look at, I introduce her at the beginning, María is the wife of my eldest son Mario Alejandro, the baby who He is in his arms, he is my first grandchild, so as a grandmother I have, I am proud of that first grandchild, that very special experience. It is a way to flourish. The generations and seeing the things that God does in our children, and Mary is one more daughter, is a blessing. I want to thank her, thanks to my sister, Miriam, who is hosting us in her house very kindly, very kindly.
