My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink
“So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, the one who eats Me, he also will live because of Me. This is the bread that came down out of heaven, not as the fathers ate and died; the one who eats this bread will live forever.”

The flesh and blood of Jesus is true food! Those who eat and drink have eternal life! When we take communion (The Lord’s Supper) we are eating of Jesus’ flesh and blood.
I wanted to share with you that today I ate communion as my breakfast. I want Jesus to be my real sustaining power in my life. I want His real drink and food moving through my body. I want the energy for the day to be from Him. I want to continue to do this every morning. I used what I had on hand, simple wheat bread and grape juice. Maybe in time, I will use non-yeast bread but I don’t plan on using wine. But all in all, I want Jesus to be more involved in my life.
“He must increase, but I must decrease.”

“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. The one who has believed and has been baptized will be saved; but the one who has not believed will be condemned. These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

It is all about His power in my life! Will you consider letting Him increase in your life so that His power can work through you?
