Scripture and prayer

For I received from the Lord what
I also passed on to you:
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

The Lord Jesus, on the night He
was betrayed, took bread,
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

and when He had given thanks,
He broke it and said,
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

“This is My body, which is for you;
do this in remembrance of Me.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

In the same way,
after supper He took the cup,
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

saying, “This cup is the new
covenant in My blood;
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

do this, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of Me.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

For as often as you eat
this bread and drink this cup,
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

you proclaim the Lord’s death
until He comes.
1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (BSB)

The bread

and when He had given thanks,
He broke it and said,
1 Corinthians 11:24 (BSB)

“This is My body, which is for you;
do this in remembrance of Me.”
1 Corinthians 11:24 (BSB)

The cup

In the same way,
after supper He took the cup,
1 Corinthians 11:25-26 (BSB)

saying, “This cup is the new
covenant in My blood;
1 Corinthians 11:25-26 (BSB)

do this, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of Me.”
1 Corinthians 11:25-26 (BSB)

For as often as you eat
this bread and drink this cup,
1 Corinthians 11:25-26 (BSB)

you proclaim the Lord’s death
until He comes.
1 Corinthians 11:25-26 (BSB)
