FiestAyuno: Definición No es un ayuno de tomar agua exclusivamente, aunque sí tiene que ver con dejar algo. No son semanas de fiestas indulgentes, aunque el énfasis esta lo que se va a ganar, no en aquello a lo que vamos a renunciar. Hay algo en medio. Por 21 días, intercambiamos algo menor por algo más grande. FiestAyuno es el camino rápido hacia el avance y la libertad. Dios nos ofrece el ayuno como un buen regalo; podemos escoger algo para entregarle. Pero entonces, no nos enfoquemos en lo que estamos dejando, sino en lo que Dios nos ofrece. Conexión. Esperanza. Libertad. ...

Take Communion Every Day for a Month? Two typical responses: “Wow, that sounds really powerful!” Or, “Wow! That sounds really controversial!” When Paul wrote about the Table of the Lord, he said, “For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.” That word “proclaim,” in the Greek, is katangello. Katangello means declare, preach, make known, proclaim publicly. When you eat this bread and drink this cup, you declare, preach, make known, proclaim publicly. The Table of the Lord is not a quiet, introspective moment, but a loud ...

For 40 years, Bob Perry’s single-minded prayer has been, “Lord, teach me to pray.” When asked about the most effective prayers to pray for businesses, he came up with these five that have proven incredibly powerful in the lives of his clients. • The eight-figure business that had been more-or-less stagnant for a decade, when, within a few months of hiring Bob to pray, doubled its revenue. • The third generation family business that had seen ups and downs over their five decades, but once they hired Bob, saw record-breaking growth, week after week, for more than a year. • The 32-...

Celebrate Your Birthday All Month Long Day 1 comes from this scripture: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” A blessing a day. Begin on your birthday, or the first of the month … or enjoy any day you crave a ...

Juneteenth: May It Be a Global Celebration of Liberation Although the United States Civil War ended on April 9, 1865, the news didn’t reach Texas until June 19. On that day, more than two months after their enslavement ended, Union Army general Gordon Granger proclaimed freedom to the enslaved. Today we celebrate that we have this same proclamation to speak over those not yet free. We have the best proclamation of all! As Paul said in Galatians 5:1, “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” But ...

In 1983, an itinerant evangelist told the young Bob Perry, a student of prayer and eager to learn, to pray I Chronicles 4:10 every day for the rest of his life. "Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, 'Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.' And God granted his request." Bob began. In 2000, Bruce Wilkinson published a famous book about this verse: The Prayer of Jabez.
