(S)cripture-
Mark 14:24 "This is my blood of the Covenant, which is poured out for many," He said to them.
(O)bservation-
While in the upper room with the apostles observing the first Lord's Supper, Jesus made this statement. He was about to go to the cross to make atonement for the sins of mankind. His life would be poured out for many and anyone who believes in Him would be able to receive the gift of eternal life. As believers, this is our great reward. As believers, this is our great commission - to share the Gospel message with others so that they have a chance to hear it, to believe and receive the cup of Christ, and to be saved.
(A)pplication-
I thank God for the cup of Christ - for His shedding of blood on the cross and His resurrection which secures my eternity in Heaven. There is no greater treasure that I have than this. My goal and purpose is to let the light of Christ shine within me, to be a great witness to others, and share the Gospel so others can hear it. Everyone needs to know that Christ poured His life out for each and every one of us.
(P)rayer-
Lord Jesus, thank You for my salvation made possible because You poured out Your life for me. You saved me from the clutches of evil and the pit of Hell and made it possible for me to be redeemed to our Father in Heaven and spend eternity with You in paradise. Please guide me through Your Holy Spirit in sharing this with others so that they too may believe in You and receive this same blessing. Your great love for us is beyond comprehension because it is so big, and for this I am truly thankful. Lord, I love You and thank You - to You and only You I direct all of my praise. Amen.
