The Lord's Death

I Corinthians 11:26 “For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till he come.”

We proclaim His death simply by partaking of the Lord’s Supper. Every time we take the bread and wine, we declare that the Lord’s death has conquered the principalities and powers of darkness. Jesus has conquered death and has already won the victory over the devil and his powers. So the victory is already ours. We just claimed this.

What impressed me about communion is to proclaim the Lord’s death through taking bread and wine. We are to quote that the devil and demons were defeated at the cross of Calvary. Keep that in mind that we have the victory in Jesus’ name. Amen! Yes! It is simple as that. What makes it difficult for us to practice in doing this? We struggled and say, “Was this for real?” Holy Spirit, “Help us to understand how important this is.”

In March 21st devotion, the song along with the communion would be very good together. It would give the Communion more meanings. The broken bread is for broken body for our healing. The wine for the blood is for forgiveness of our sins. May the Lord open our eyes to grasp the Word of God.
