How you honor/welcome/treat the presence of God will
directly influence your quality of life.

● King Asa beginning of reign vs end of reign
● David vs Saul’s Daughter

Communion:
John 6:43-69
● Jesus talks of being the “Bread of Life”, he says
your fathers ate manna in the wilderness and are
now dead. Those who partake of the bread of life
will live forever.
● The religious folks question how Jesus can give
them His flesh to eat.
● Jesus doubles down and responds to their
resistance with “Unless you eat my flesh and drink
my blood there is no life in you”
● Jesus can tell the people and disciples are
questioning these statements and he says “Does
this offend you???”
● John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh
profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are
spirit, and they are life.
● John 6:66 From that time many of His disciples
went back and walked with Him no more. 67 Then
Jesus said to the twelve, "Do you also want to go
away?" 68 But Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord,
to whom shall we go? You have the words of
eternal life. 69 Also we have come to believe and
know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living
God."

John 6:56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood
abides in Me, and I in him.
The Body: Is 53:4 Surely He has borne our griefs And
carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 But He was wounded
for our transgressions, He was bruised for our
iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon
Him, And by His stripes we are healed.

The Blood: Eph 2:12 that at that time you were without
Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel
and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no
hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ
Jesus you who once were far off have been brought
near by the blood of Christ.

All these things are wonderful on their own, but
essentially they are all byproducts of what is really
powerful and that is you having a relationship with God.
The Name of Jesus, the believer’s authority, Mark 16:17,
these are all products of having that same Spirit that
raised Christ from the dead living on the inside of you
because you have a relationship with God.
1 Cor 11:23 For I received from the Lord that which I
also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same
night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and
when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take,
eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in
remembrance of Me." 25 In the same manner He also
took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new
covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of Me." 26 For as often as you eat this
bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death
till He comes.
