DAILY?READINGS: 2 Kings 5; Jeremiah 38; Hebrews 9:15-28
For I received of the Lord that which I delivered unto you…this do in remembrance of me. 1 Corinthians 11:23-24
The Lord Jesus gave Paul a special revelation concerning the Lord’s Supper, thus stressing its importance. Hence, there must be a right purpose, manner and place to observe it. The purpose is a loving memorial of our Saviour who died, but is alive again. The manner is a simple cup and loaf. The loaf represents His body given and the cup His shed blood and the new covenant that it established. The place is where two or three believers meet in His name. So today, as we meet in His name and consider the bread and the wine, may our hearts be filled with Him alone. —Harold G. Smith
Sweet feast of love divine! ‘Tis grace that makes us free.
To feed upon this bread and wine; in memory, Lord, of Thee!
—E. Denny
