Jesus feeds me

7 December 2010.

Genesis 14:18 And Mel-chiz'edek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was priest of God Most High.

The reference to bread and wine in relationship to the role of the priest of the God Most High is seen in the celebration of Abram of his enemies and the place of Jerusalem as central to worship of God. Not only is the Eucharist a celebration of victory of Jesus Christ over sin, but also over death and even more so the acceptability of men at the table of the Lord God Most High. This is a time of Holy Communion between God and man, a time when in faith we receive the gifts of Life presented to us in the form of bread and wine, which is the sharing of the blood and flesh of Jesus Christ. It is in the consummation that we become one with God, by the eating of the bread which is the Body of Christ, and the wine which is the Blood of Christ.

The blessing and the continuance of our relationship with God Most High must be seen in the celebration of the meal that we share each time we come into the House of God. We celebrate the victory over sin, we celebrate our victory over self, we celebrate the joy of life abundant in this world and the world to come.  Every time we do this we surrender ourselves in a sacrificial way to give all who we are and at the same time receive all that Christ is to dwell in us. In this way we receive the blessing of salvation and the ongoing healing of body, mind and soul in and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Be encouraged to celebrate our Holy Communion with the Most High God.
