Let’s pray for the saints to see the importance of the Lord’s table in carrying out God’s move so that they will earnestly keep it

For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread, and having given thanks, He broke it and said, This is My body, which is given for you; this do unto the remembrance of Me. Similarly also the cup after they had dined, saying, This cup is the new covenant established in My blood; this do, as often as you drink it, unto the remembrance of Me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you declare the Lord’s death until He comes. 1 Cor. 11:23-26

Dear saints, let us pray that from the type of the Passover the saints would see the importance of the Lord’s table in carrying out God’s move and would be encouraged to earnestly keep this weekly feast (1 Cor. 11:23-26; cf. Num. 9:1-5).

The Passover in the Old Testament was a yearly reminder to the children of Israel. Today we, the believers in Christ, have a weekly reminder, the Lord’s table. Every week, on the first day of the week, we should have the remembrance of the Lord at His table, enjoying all that He is to us. However, some may come to the Lord’s table without knowing what they are doing. Whenever we come to the Lord’s table we should be reminded that we need a new start, a new beginning on the eighth day, which is the first day of the week and a day in resurrection. We also need to be reminded that we were destined to die under God’s righteous judgment, but God prepared Christ to be our replacement to die for us. Therefore, we have been saved from the death-judgment. Furthermore, at the Lord’s table we should be reminded that we do not belong to ourselves but to the One who replaced us and who is now our life and life supply. Since Christ is our life and life supply, we should live by Him. This is the significance of the Passover and also of the Lord’s table.

Both the Passover and the Lord’s table are feasts. Whenever we participate in the Passover or in the Lord’s table, we partake of a feast to enjoy Christ in the presence of God. This enjoyment is a mutual satisfaction to God and us. (Life-study of Numbers, msg. 15, by Witness Lee)
