Easter

^{Easter weekend}

Matthew 26:26-28 

²⁶ While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”

²⁷ Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. ²⁸ This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.  

  

This weekend, when we eat the bread and drink the blood, we celebrate the crucifixion of our Lord, Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

There is no other God like Him. He is the only living God, the only forgiving God, the only loving God and the only God who created us in His image. We can win again through Him, because we are his children. In fact we are heirs to His Kingdom.

No matter your circumstances today, He loves you and He wants something better for you and me. This is our chance to make right with Him, to draw closer to Him and to renew our covenant with Him.

Let us not eat and drink unless we stand to forgive those who trespassed against us. He taught us to pray to Him to forgive us, but there is a condition – as we forgive those who trespassed against us. Brothers and sisters in Christ, I urge you to do this now.

If we are forgiving those people then we are doing the will of God and He will heal us, He will restore us, our relationships, our health, our finances and everything else we ask Him for.

Prayer:

Dear heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus and I ask your forgiveness as I forgive ……… who trespassed against me. I pray that You will set ……. free and I set him/her free too. I shall no longer hold anything against that person. Lord I pray that you will restore me, my relationship(s), my health, my finances and my ……. .

The Lord promised to restore to you and me seven fold what the enemy has stolen from us. Hallelujah!!! Thank you Lord!!

If you have prayed this prayer, belief that He has forgiven you and that He will restore what you asked for and it will be done for you.

Now go ahead and take bread, break it and eat it as the body of Christ that was broken for you and me. Take red grape juice and drink it as the blood of Christ that was shed on the cross for forgiveness of your and my sins.
