“Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? – 1 Corinthians 10:16
The greatest mystery confronting humanity today is the mystery of God becoming a man, dwelling among men, and thereafter, offering himself as a ransom to heal and to save the world. Explaining this mystery has been a difficult process. The church teaches us that the Christ of God took form as Jesus Christ to pave the way for the reconciliation of God with man through His shed blood on the cross at Calvary. The question has also arisen, “why must God through the blood of His son, save man from sin and destruction”? The answer is that the blood of Christ is the very essence of the WORD of God by which ALL THINGS were created, including HUMANITY, and by which all things are now preserved and kept whole under the supreme will and sovereignty of God. Therefore, the WORD is the power that preserves, protects humanity and every creation of God from damage or destruction. When man sinned and deserved to die, it became necessary for the power of God, in His WORD, to bring back man to life. The WORD of God is the son of God, Jesus Christ. The blood of Jesus, therefore, has NOT ONLY SAVED MAN FROM DEATH but has become the very essence of the life of God which continues to rebuild, protect and preserve our broken world from time to time. At the LAST SUPPER, Jesus Christ gave us His blood and flesh, and declares that as many as would partake of the communion of His blood and flesh, they shall have their sins forgiven; They SHALL not die. This creates longevity and eternity for humanity by the grace of God. Therefore, the Cup has now become for us, a chalice of salvation and healing for the world from now till eternity.
The blood of Jesus Christ is HOLY BLOOD, containing His total divinity of body, soul, and spirit. This is the same blood that flows from the ETERNAL heart and soul of God, who by Himself is the Alpha and Omega – the holy one of Israel; The eternal God who is the beginning and end of all things. Jesus is the Christ of God; The one who proceeded from God, and is ONE with God ALL THE TIME, throughout eternity.
Beloved, this is a time for healing and forgiveness for all. Trust that Jesus Christ is there for us always to heal our infirmities, affliction and to give us the necessary healing to live and experience a life of abundance. Today, I ask that Jesus will heal the church, as well as the entire world. He will heal you and your family specifically. His mercy and righteousness endure forever.
PRAYER
Father in the name of Jesus Christ, today, I raise up the Cup of salvation to a broken world, and I decree and declare that all things have become new again. Father, by the blood of Jesus Christ, we are healed and completely restored by thy grace. Thank you, father, AMEN.
