Christian Reflection and Prayer

Scripture:
   
In the same way, he took the cup
of wine after supper, saying, "This
cup is the new covenant between
God and his people--an agreement
confirmed with my blood. Do this
to remember me as often as you
drink it."
1 Corinthians 11:25, NLT

Reflection:
   
Jesus said, "Do this to remember
me as often as you drink it.'' How
do we remember Christ in the Lord's
Supper?    
By thinking about what he did and
why he did it. If the Lord's Supper
becomes just a ritual or a pious habit,
it no longer remembers Christ, and it
loses its significance.
AND CHRIST IS SIGNIFICANT,
REMEMBER HIM!

Scripture:

Jeremiah 32:17-22

17 “Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made
the heavens and the earth by your great
power and outstretched arm. Nothing is
too hard for you. 18 You show love to
thousands but bring the punishment for
the parents’ sins into the laps of their
children after them. Great and mighty
God, whose name is the LORD Almighty,
19 great are your purposes and mighty
are your deeds. Your eyes are open to the
ways of all; you reward everyone according
to their conduct and as their deeds deserve.
20 You performed signs and wonders in
Egypt and have continued them to this day,
both in Israel and among all nations, and
have gained the renown that is still yours.
21 You brought your people Israel out of
Egypt with signs and wonders, by a mighty
hand and an outstretched arm and with
great terror. 22 You gave them this land
you had sworn to give their ancestors, a
land flowing with milk and honey.
Today's New International Version (TNIV)

Reflection:

God what are you going to do?


To ask this question and to
truly pray this prayer, you must
be willing to surrender all your plans into
His hands.  Not only does He know what
to do and how to accomplish it, but He can
also make a way through any impossibility.
Your job is simply to trust Him and
obediently follow His directions.
