Giving honor and thanksgiving to our men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. We especially recognize all of the brave military personnel who gave their life protecting our freedom. We salute you and your families.
It is important and right to remember our loved ones and their contribution to our lives and society. We celebrate these times with family and friends. We fellowship with food and reminisce the good times we had with our loved ones, now departed. This is good for our soul and uplifts our hearts.
As Christians, we should also take the time to honor and worship the work and sacrifice that our Savior and Lord completed on Mankind’s behalf. When Jesus lovingly died on the cross for our sins and redeemed us back to our Living God Jesus paid the ultimate price to give us freedom from the curse of the Law and eternal life in Him.
According to First Corinthians 11:23-34, Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper prior to His crucifixion. This Passover meal was celebrated by Jesus and His disciples in remembrance of the work Jesus was about to complete for you and me. This meal called Holy Communion should be practiced to acknowledge our deliverance in Jesus.
Holy Communion is a blood covenant meal in which we declare by faith all that Jesus accomplished on our behalf. We are celebrating and remembering the blood covenant agreement that we have with our Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ.
When we partake of Holy Communion, we are saying to Jesus that we will always remember and honor His work of salvation on our behalf. That His life given was not in vain, but is precious and alive in us today and forevermore.
Holy Communion reminds us of the great work completed on the cross and its elements, the bread and wine, which are not only symbols of the suffering and blood shed by Jesus, but the eternal life and power that He gave us through His work.
The cup of wine is symbolic for the sharing of life because the blood is where the life of the flesh is found and to drink one another’s blood is the sharing of one another’s life. The eating of the bread is symbolic for the flesh and to eat the bread is an invitation to the covenant partners to take the greater one’s strength and essence. All that I Am; I Am yours.
As we partake of Holy Communion, we should remember that we have been empowered with the same life, authority, and dominion as that of Jesus. (John 6:55-58)
When we come to understand our covenant authority in Jesus then we will be persuaded that we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people (First Peter 2:9). That we are more than conquerors (Romans 8:37). And, that whatever we do shall prosper (Psalm 1:3). Amen!
