The Table in the Presence <strong>of</strong> our Enemies 59<br />
God “have you not put a hedge around him, his household, <strong>and</strong> all<br />
he has?” Job 1:911<br />
3. The taking <strong>of</strong> communion seems to not only consecrate us as<br />
very holy unto God, but gives us access to the Holy <strong>of</strong> Holies<br />
in a powerful way. We see in scripture that we have access to<br />
God’s throne by the blood <strong>of</strong> Jesus. Also Jesus’ body, or flesh,<br />
was the veil that was ripped <strong>and</strong> gives us access to God’s manifest<br />
presence. There is something about taking the Lord’s Supper<br />
that will give access right into the Holy <strong>of</strong> Holies. This is why I take<br />
communion daily before my personal prayer time. I also have my<br />
church begin the services <strong>and</strong> prayer meetings taking the Lord’s<br />
Supper. We move right into the atmosphere <strong>of</strong> heaven in an awesome<br />
way because <strong>of</strong> this.<br />
4. Taking the Lord’s Supper causes the yeast (which represents<br />
sin) to be removed from our lives <strong>and</strong> churches. We see this in<br />
1Cor 5:7 Paul comm<strong>and</strong>ed the church to remove the yeast from<br />
among them <strong>and</strong> with that comm<strong>and</strong>ed them to “keep the feast”<br />
(which speaks <strong>of</strong> the Lord’s supper). I have seen people come to<br />
Christ <strong>and</strong> by taking communion on a regular basis, the yeast began<br />
to be removed from their lives. Also, I have seen the Lord continually<br />
purge my church as we have honored his word by taking<br />
communion weekly. Keeping the feast truly does purge out the<br />
yeast from among us.<br />
5. Everything the Lord paid for us on the cross: cleansing, healing,<br />
deliverance, protection, <strong>and</strong> provision is released in a<br />
powerful way when we take the Lord’s Supper. It breaks the<br />
heavens open over our lives <strong>and</strong> releases the promises <strong>of</strong> God!<br />
6. The Lord gives us strength for the battle. In 1 Sam. 21 we see<br />
when David <strong>and</strong> his men were weary in battle they ate the consecrated<br />
bread <strong>of</strong> the Priests. This speaks <strong>of</strong> taking the Lord’s Supper.<br />
The prophetic scripture the Lord had me read regarding this<br />
chapter I am writing is Psalm 23. The word <strong>of</strong> God says “you prepare<br />
a table before me in the presence <strong>of</strong> my enemies.” Could this<br />
table speak <strong>of</strong> communion? Even in the Tabernacle <strong>of</strong> Moses we<br />
see a Table right as we enter the Holy Place that had fresh bread<br />
<strong>and</strong> wine on it! Psalm 23 goes on to say “You anoint my head with<br />
oil <strong>and</strong> my cup overflows.” Could the cup “overflowing” speak <strong>of</strong><br />
taking communion frequently? It is interesting to see the taking <strong>of</strong><br />
communion frequently is connected with our heads being<br />
“anointed with oil.” This seems to parallel with the Rev 2:4 which<br />
connects a fresh anointing with taking the Lord’s Supper.
