"I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD." (Psalm 1:16:13).
In America we have set aside several days each year to commemorate heroes and important national events. These holidays remind us of our heritage so we may have a better appreciation of our country and those who have guided it and inspired us to be better citizens.
Once each year the ancient Israelites observed a day of remembrance called Passover. On that night during the Passover meal, they would take their cups and raise them as reminders that God had provided their salvation from Egypt.
Each time believers come to partake of the Lord’s Supper, we recall the time when Jesus offered Himself as a sacrifice for our sins. He demonstrated a similar call to remembrance for His earliest followers on the night He was betrayed to be condemned and crucified. He lifted the cup and told them that each time they celebrated the Supper they should remember the salvation He made possible on Calvary.
Father, each time I think of You I remember Your mercy toward me, a sinner under condemnation.
