The first content of the Communion is the bread – the Flesh of Jesus Christ.
Concerning this, the Scriptures says in Matthew 26:26:
“AND as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and break it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.”
During Communion, when a piece of bread is blessed, it ceases to be ordinary bread; it becomes the Flesh of Jesus. Jesus even refers to it as ‘meat indeed’ in John 6:55. What a mystery!
Think of this: what ordinary bread is to your physical body, is what the Flesh of Jesus in Communion is to you spiritually. Food is required for physical growth; in the same vein, the Communion is required for healthy living spiritually. It is that serious!
The Flesh of Jesus Christ, the bread of life (John 6:48) when taken in Communion is a covenant meal. It is the most nutritious food a man can ever eat. Remember: you are what you eat!
So, whatever cannot be found in the Body and Flesh of Jesus Christ [confusion, weakness, failure, fear, sickness, deformity, terminal diseases, poverty, foolishness, etc] is not meant to be found in yours, when you partake of the Communion as prescribed.
I see you go from strength to strength by the mystery of the Communion Table, from today.
shalom!
