The Significance of Communion

Do you need a miracle in some area of your life? I want to encourage you that communion is more than something we do at church once a month. Communion is a weapon that can grant you access to miracles through the blood of Christ. 

I grew up in church receiving communion regularly, but I didn’t get it. It was something that “church people” do. I would eat the little tasteless wafer and wonder, why can’t we get something that has some taste to it, or at least isn’t stale? I would drink from the cup and wonder, why are these cups so tiny? We had a communion table at the front of the church with the words “Do This in Remembrance of Me” engraved on it. What we remember and say makes receiving communion a tool that we can use to access miracles! 

For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that 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, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; 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. As often as you drink it, this do in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes. – 1 Corinthians 11:23-26

Remembrance

Jesus gave a way to remember the cross. We are to remember what He achieved for us—our healing and salvation! We are to remember who He made us—His children—through faith in His sacrifice for our sins. This tool reminds us that the devil is defeated! Jesus wins, and we are on the winning team because of our faith in Christ! 

Let me ask you a question—how often should you remember these things? How valuable would it be for you and your family to remember these things daily? I want to challenge you to start receiving communion with your family every week. Why not every day for a while? How about every time your Life Group meets? Receiving communion could become an essential part of your daily schedule! 

There are countless miracle stories of people who had cancer and received complete healing after they received communion daily for weeks. Then there are the parents whose children fell away from the Lord, yet after receiving communion and applying the saving blood of Jesus over their children, they came back to Jesus. The stories are endless of the miracles released when people practiced communion as a weapon. 

Proclaim His Power

When you receive communion, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes. Every time you receive communion, you should announce what the body and blood of Jesus have purchased for you. Proclaim protection through the blood of Jesus. Proclaim life in your body, your family, your business. Life is in the blood! 

There is enough power in the blood of Jesus to cancel any curse, to save us from all of our sins, and to heal every disease that comes against us. As the song I used to sing as a child says, “There is power, power, wonder-working power in the precious blood of the Lamb.”

Enjoy a new miracle-releasing practice of regularly receiving communion in your home!
