Theme: I Believe in Communion

Remembering the Past

Read Exodus 12:14–20

When you look at your calendar, you’ll notice that throughout the year certain days have been set aside to commemorate or call to remembrance specific events or people.

This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord—a lasting ordinance (Exodus 12:14).

The instructions in this chapter were given the night before Israel was delivered from Egyptian bondage. A specific time was to be set aside each year to commemorate this momentous event. They were to share this testimony with their children and grandchildren (Exodus 12:26,27).

When we take part in Communion, we look back and remember the wonderful deliverance provided for us by Christ at Calvary. “God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God” (2Corinthians 5:21). Communion is a perpetual reminder to us of the broken body and shed blood of our Savior.

How long has it been since you shared the testimony of your deliverance from sin? Why not do that today.

Prayer Suggestion: Lord, thank You for Your great sacrifice.
