Joshua 23:1-16; Isaiah 17:1-18:7; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-17
The Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it, and said… “Do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” 1 Corinthians 11:23-25 NKJV
This simple command from our Lord has been a great blessing to many believers! At the start of our week, it takes us back to Calvary. It gives us a renewed appreciation for the sacrifice made on our behalf. It centres us on Him! It brings before us the wonderful hope of being with Him forever. Our participation is only temporary, but as we wait for His return, may we remember Him today. —Jim Paul
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
