The Gift of My Blood
Then Jesus took a cup of wine. He thanked God for it and gave
it to the followers. All the followers drank from the cup.
Then Jesus said, "This wine is my blood. My blood (death)
begins the new agreement {from God to his people}. This blood
is given for many people."
-- Mark 14:23-24 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Jesus' blood, remembered in this last supper with his followers and
continually celebrated by his followers today, seals a new covenant
between God and Jesus' followers. This is a covenant of grace, love,
and life brought about by the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. This new
covenant is our way of life as Jesus' followers and is a better and
eternal covenant provided to us by the blood of Jesus.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Father in heaven, thank you for the price that was paid to bring us
into a new covenant relationship with you. May my life be lived to
honor that price and to fulfill that covenant. In Jesus' name. Amen.
