The Blessing Cup

Dear Partner, Family and Friends,

“The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?.” - 1 Corinthians 10:16

Communion is all about remembering Jesus, how He partook of our sins, becoming sin for us and taking our sicknesses in His own body as He died for us on the Cross of Calvary.  Jesus became sin for us, partook of this so that we could partake of His righteousness, being made righteousness because He became or was made, sin.  Jesus took the full curse of the law that was due us for our sins and rebellion against God.  

His blood was shed to cleanse us and to make the way for us to enter into covenant with God. This covenant we have with God is a blood covenant.  It is sealed with God’s blood, divine blood, innocent and holy blood.  Through this blood (Christ shed blood) we enter into, and have access to, the full covenant of Abraham and all its blessings.  

Communion is one of the most powerful Christian sacraments that imparts divine grace to our lives.  The word in the Greek is the word ‘Koinonia’ which means partnership and participation. Through Communion, God partners with us in life.  He participates in our affairs.  Through Communion, we become co-labourers together with God, and he becomes co-labourers together with us.  

Through Communion, we participate with God and all that He did on the Cross of Calvary in giving to us ‘The Blessing of Abraham’ through Jesus Christ.  We are then empowered for divine service in the Kingdom and ministry.  We stand by faith in this grace in Jesus’ mighty name.  We remember Jesus, that it is now "Christ in us the hope of glory." 

This is the great exchange when we enter into covenant with God and we exchange what we have for what He has.  We exchange our life for His.  He gave His life for us.  We exchange our sicknesses (He took them on the cross), for His health and healing.  We exchange our sins (He took them on the cross, being made a curse for us) for His righteousness.  We become the righteousness of God in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:21)

He took our poverty, and gave us His prosperity.

“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.” - 2 Corinthians 8:9

We can now richly enjoy the full privileges of being a child of God.  This is the Abrahamic Covenant Blessing and all that it represents.  

"The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it." - Proverbs 10:22

Every time we take Communion, let's remember our Lord Jesus Christ. Let's examine ourselves, as the Word says. As we examine ourselves, if we find sickness, sin, weakness, poverty or lack (debt), then look at Jesus' body, His resurrected body, as He is now and remember He already took ALL of these above mentioned things in His body and became a curse for us on the cross. See yourself completely whole and well in every area of your life by faith. Get a picture of yourself through Christ as more than a conqueror over these things and use the authority of the Name of Jesus to tell them to go, die, leave and/or get out of your body. Tell whatever Satan is using to pull you down, that it was defeated by Christ at the cross, and tell that thing it is under your feet. Defeated for you by Christ and declare yourself healed, whole, and prosperous because that was purchased for you by the broken body and shed blood of Christ.

Remember "as He is, so are we in this world."  - 1 John 4:17b

I dare you to see yourself as Christ sees you. I am praying for you to receive everything Christ went to the cross and paid the price for you to have.

God bless,

Ps. Shaun Marler

“I am not moved by what I see. I am not moved by what I feel. I am only moved by what I believe.” Smith Wigglesworth.

If God’s Word says you are forgiven, then you are forgiven, if God’s Word says your needs are met, then your needs are met. If God’s Word says you are healed, you are healed. If you don’t let go of God’s Word, but keep it in your heart and mouth, then you can’t lose. There is no force the devil can bring against you that can overthrow the Word of God. God’s Word will make you a victor every time. So if you have been wanting good success and it has been eluding you, quit wondering if you have what it takes to succeed and remember instead, who lives in you. Then turn to the Word and put God’s success formula to work in your life. Start talking it, start thinking it, start doing it! You can believe all day long that the Bible is true- and that’s to your credit- but what the Bible says will never affect your life in a personal way until you start acting on God’s Word. Do not worry or fret that God has given more faith to others than He has to you. Rest assured in the fact that God h

Honour your man of God

“Render to all men their dues. [Pay] taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, and honor to whom honor is due.” Romans 13:7 (AMP) The word honour means: to respect, to revere, to treat with deference and submission and perform relevant duties to. Honouring your man of God is vital in the life of every born-again believer. Even as a Senior Pastor, it is a privilege for me to honour the men of God that I consider my spiritual fathers and mentors. They are life coaches to me on my spiritual journey to success, shining examples of excellence in ministry, men to whom I look for advice, prayer, guidance and leadership. The importance of a man such as this cannot be overstated. Many of us would not be saved from the wrath to come, had it not been for the assistance, support and intervention of our Pastors. We would be ignorant of the Word, were it not for a man of God anointed to teach. Thank God for men who dare to teach the “Word of God”, i

THE LAW OF REPETITION

Image
What you hear repeatedly, you will eventually believe. Repetition, our school teachers know this basic law of learning. That’s why when we were at school, we learned many things in our early years by repetition. Someone once said, “You must hear something at least 16 times, before you eventually believe it”. Television commercials are repeated over and over. These are backed up by newspaper, magazine, internet and billboard advertisements. The marketers know we must continually hear and see something before we respond to it.  Romans 10:17 says “ So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God ”.  It simply takes time to absorb a message. Great achievers understand the necessity for their team and those following them, to hear instructions, teaching and training, again and again, before they fully grasp new concepts.  Do not expect those around you and those with whom you network, to understand everything instantly. You are a result of a process, y
