July 1, 2019 Spirit Meat Daily Devotional : Topic - THE HOLY COMMUNION IS NOT JUST A RITUAL - 1 CORINTHIANS 11:23-26; MATTHEW 22:29
This month marks the beginning of the second half of a pivotal year. We will consider the subject of the Holy Communion this month. Whenever you hear about the Holy Communion, what are the thoughts that flood your mind? I have discovered that the subject of the Holy Communion has been surrounded by mystery and embroiled in controversy among believers.
The differing perspectives around the Holy Communion include the following:
1.Those who believe that it is the literal body of Christ that we eat each time we partake of the Holy Communion,
2.Those who insist that you need to do a number of rites or demonstrate your commitment to the Church denomination before partaking at the table,
3.Those who see nothing wrong in sharing the communion on crusade fields to everyone present regardless of their salvation experiences.
Understandably, many Christians have concluded that the Holy Communion is nothing more than a ritual that happens in Church; without any real understanding of what they are doing. The truth, however, is that there is tremendous power in the Holy Communion for every blood-washed, covenant child of God. This power is always available to those who know the treasure that God has reserved in the truth of the Holy Communion. I trust God that at the end of this month you would be a conscious partaker of the blessings awaiting you at the communion table.
PRAYER: Holy Spirit, open my heart of understanding and unlock the blessing available to me at the communion table; so that the communion table won’t remain a ritual to me in Jesus’ name. Amen!
BIBLE IN A YEAR: 2 Kings 18:13-19:37, Acts 21:1-17, Psalm 149:1-9, Proverbs 18:8
