Bread & Cup

Lord Jesus, this BREAD that we hold in our hands is Your Body.
This Body was broken for us.
Anything that is not good to us, against us, not to our advantage,
Had all been absorbed by this broken Body.
By Your stripes we are healed,
Through Your punishment at the cross we have peace,
And though You were rich yet for our sake You became poor,
So that through Your poverty, we might become rich.
Thank you Lord for this divine exchange,
we partake Your broken Body in one heart,
in remembrance of You and Your finished work at the cross.
Thank you Lord.


Lord Jesus, This CUP that we hold in our hands is Your blood.
This is the blood that You shed for the New Covenant.
This is the blood that You shed for the forgiveness of sins.
We were made righteous by Your blood.
We are now the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
We are now highly favored, greatly blessed and deeply loved by You.
Thank you Lord for this divine exchange.
We partake Your blood in one heart, 
in remembrance of You and Your finished work at the cross.
We will do these often until You come again.
Thank you Lord.
