Join Bill Johnson for a time of communion. Communion is the meal of absolute victory; Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross was more than enough to bring healing to our bodies and freedom from sin. Jesus commanded us to take communion in remembrance of Him, that we would continually live aware of the victory we walk in.
the resurrection of jesus
was for you
it was for you
had there been only one
human being
on the planet that sin and that one
person was you
everything jesus went through
he would have gone through
for you
for me every one of us
we’re going to share in communion which
is um
is becoming more important to me all the
time so if you could uh
grab the elements
please
i know that in in various traditions the
elements are to be
passed out by
uh
certain qualified leaders
but join with us
anyway this time we’ll ask jesus to
bless
this in your hands
jesus
on that passover night he took bread and
he and he broke it he took the loaf and
he broke it
and he made this statement i i don’t
understand this but i love the stuff i
don’t understand i i don’t i don’t want
to too quickly explain it away because i
know i’ll get it wrong
he said he broke the bread and he gave
peace to his disciples and he said
take
eat this is
my body
he didn’t say this represents my body
now a lot of people are trying to figure
out what that looks like i don’t know
what it looks like all i know is he said
take this it’s my body
later he says a number get sick
die
have all kinds of weakness struggles
because they don’t discern the
body correctly so what if we did this
if we took that bread and we held it
some of you uh your your own tradition
has taught you well in this and you
already approached the bread in the cup
as the body and blood of jesus
but many of us have come out of a
tradition that says it represents i’ll
let the theologians figure it out i just
want to run with what jesus said he said
take eat this is my body so what does it
mean to judge the body correctly
well
it can mean one of two things i
personally think it means both
one is that i come to this moment
with the same respect
as those as though this were the body of
jesus that i hold in my hand
number two
i come to you as members of the body of
christ with the same respect
as i would the bread
that is the broken body of jesus
there’s a divine health in that equation
now when i take the bread and benny and
i do it uh often many times uh
throughout the week
and when i take the bread out this
little wafer i like to break it because
i remind myself
that his flesh was torn his body was
broken we sang it today his body was
broken
i like to take the bread
and i break it
and i make this confession over my life
over benny over my immediate family
over people that i know and care for
that are really struggling and i this is
what i do
the torn flesh of jesus
represents the stripes that he bore
the scripture says by his stripes
we were healed
by his stripes the payment was made
then
for what i get to experience
now
in the same way my sin was atoned for 2
000 years ago today i get to experience
the liberty and the freedom of
forgiveness today
so when i take this cup this bread and i
encourage you to do so just make this
confession with me by the stripes of
jesus
i was healed
and then i want i want you just to take
a moment
just declare divine health some of you
are struggling with this pandemic you’ve
been hit with this disease i’ve got a
couple friends that almost lost their
lives but the lord had mercy on them and
there they are thriving today i’m so
thankful
and i i just i just announced that over
you this is a divine moment
take the bread and declare over your own
body over your own flesh by the stripes
of jesus i was healed
and then just put on your lips the name
of a friend
uh someone that you know that you care
for
for me kathy valentin allen ray
divine healing into their bodies
restoration
of what the enemy has stolen mark cooper
by the stripes of jesus mark cooper you
are healed
and i take this bread and make that
proclamation do it yourself just for a
moment take the bread
and say jesus i know that the price you
paid was more than enough
i declare healing right now
in jesus name
and they mentioned her name
now let’s receive this bread
with the same majesty and honor and
respect and reverend
that we would if we were holding in our
hands the body of jesus
another cup the blood
i know that eric earlier
i encouraged people to
write on the chat
that you want to receive christ if
there’s anyone in this moment
that has you’ve never surrendered your
life to jesus
do it right now do it now
this moment is for you today is the
beginning of eternity for you
a life of forgiveness a life of freedom
a life of learning to walk with jesus
for his honor for his glory
you hold in your hand a cup that jesus
looked at and said this is my blood
here’s the deal
without the shedding of blood there is
no
remission of sin no forgiveness
it required this this
covers sin
so i like to make several confessions as
i pray over my household my family
i like to just make the decree
the blood of jesus sets me free
i like to make that just throughout the
day at any given time just walking
around my property the blood of jesus
sets me free
it’s important that we say these truths
it’s important that we hear ourselves
saying but it’s also important that we
speak it into the cities the
neighborhoods that we live in the blood
of jesus
sets me free
but here’s what i also like to do
i like to plead the blood of jesus see
the blood of jesus poured out over every
single family member
of mine
i pray for my children their amazing
spouses
their children my grandchildren
i bring them all before the lord by name
and i pray that god would protect them
inside and out
the spirit soul and body they would be
safe
that they would have deep encounters
with him that god would give them a
hunger to know him that that gift would
be given it’s mentioned in jeremiah 24
that god would give them a heart to know
him
i pray for every single family member
that way
i want to ask you to do that right now
just take the cup hold it before the
lord and just declare over your family
the blood of jesus sets us free
bring their names before the lord i just
plead the blood of jesus over my life
some of you have
children who have wandered away from the
lord some of you have children parents
maybe who have never walked with the
lord but today is your day today is the
day i want you to make the decree we
just i just joined the name of john with
the lord jesus christ and i say
father bring him home
bring him to faith
hold that cup before the lord i’ll give
you just just a few seconds mention the
names of your family members
and make that decree i plead the blood
of jesus over them
the blood of jesus over them
thank you father
so this is my
my big confession that i make when i
hold the cup before the lord
as for me and my house
we will serve the lord
that’s my decree i prophesy
i prophesied
in my house in my bedroom in my kitchen
wherever i’m at i prophesied if i’m out
on the property sometimes i’ll take
communion as i walk on our land
and i just prophesy declare it as for me
and my house
we will serve the lord every single
family member has been set aside by the
grace of god to serve him well
i want you to do that right now
as for me in my house
we will serve the lord
amen
let’s receive the blood of jesus now
wow
it’s the meal of absolute victory
it’s the meal of absolute triumph
i pray that today
would be a day where god
initiates
a series of encounters
some of you have been tormented
by stuff you’ve given place to fear
and that fear has been robbing you and i
believe jesus wants to set you free from
that fear it was talked about in romans
8 all these things that are trying to
separate us from the love of god they
don’t have the authority to unless you
and i agree with them
in fear and we just say no to that right
now
there are some of you watching that have
hidden addictions
and you have this hearts desire to be
free listen just take it bring it before
the lord and say
i want liberty i want to be free from
this bring it before the lord i believe
there’s going to be a mighty mighty
deliverance for you
as just a note
chris valentin has made his book spirit
wars he and the publisher has made his
book spirit wars which is about
spiritual warfare describing this
climate that we are in right now they’ve
made it free available as an e-book
i want to encourage you we have tens of
thousands of believers all over the
world that watch this this this service
i want to encourage you take advantage
of this moment because there is such
insight there about your own freedom
your own deliverance your own liberty
let me pray for you and then we’ll end
this all right father
i thank you for the power of deliverance
the power of salvation
i thank you for the blood of jesus the
broken body of jesus we just give you
thanks
and i ask right now that liberty and
freedom
would be the testimony of the day
and we celebrate together the
resurrection
of jesus
amen
amen
