THE POWER OF COMMUNION
“And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.”
1 Corinthians 11:24-26 (KJV)
Main Text:
Communion is something we can do on a daily basis to claim victory in any circumstance we are going through by claiming, decreeing and declaring the freedom and victory that Christ Jesus has given us through what He went through. Communion is such a powerful tool we have as the body of Christ, not only to remember that Christ died for us, conquered the grave and rose again in victory, but also to remind us that we can walk in complete freedom from the enemy in all spheres of life.
Jesus paid the ultimate price for our freedom by taking on our sin and purchasing the punishment for our sin which was the ultimate death and eternity in Hell. Jesus took back the keys of authority to the earth that Satan stole when man fell. Jesus completed the transaction and the enemy was defeated from our lives in every area of our life.
Through salvation in Christ, we were restored to our original identity which is in Christ and given complete access and restoration to our freedom from the devil and our authority over him. Today when we partake of the communion, we are declaring that Jesus’ health and divine life flows in our mortal bodies and we have been forgiven and made righteous.
Confession: I am what God says I am, I am blessed, favored and righteous. I am forgiven and I have the divine life in me, sickness and diseases have no power over me, I am blessed beyond measure!
