Friday: Wash Job 5

"This is the cup of the new covenant in my blood."

Good Morning, my dear sisters and brothers. Another day has arrived and we are so blessed. With all that is said, if you wake up in the morning and you truly love Jesus, you are blessed, and if you wake up in America I think you are blessed even more. Someone want to pass that statement on to the White House? Today we pray for all those who are working for the Lord. Remember He called ALL of us into His service. His work is never done. Work from dawn to setting sun, and folks, that means the dawn of your life, to the setting sun of your life, and when you look at it as a daily thing, yes, it is from first light till time to go to bed. Please keep praying for those on our daily list... Vicki and her family and please pray for Vicki's mother, just pray for her, someday I will tell you some of the details. Pray for Pastor Tony. I talked to his wife, Ruby, just yesterday, and Pastor has good days and some bad. He is starting to get confused. Keep praying for Anna Troutman, she is up out of the wheelchair and walking now with a walker. Please also pray for Blanch and Dale... Blanch is very ill and in the hospital.

Wash Job 5: Let's today start with a prayer to clean us up. I told you for the last three days that I was going to tell you what really makes us clean, what cleans better then Tide, Lye Soap, 409 Cleaner and even Mr. Clean, the bald guy on the commercials. Let's go now to our Father in Heaven and get this started...

Dear Father in Heaven, please wash us today, wash us white as snow and wash us in the only thing that really cleans us inside and out, and that is the blood of Jesus. Clean us, dear Lord, and get us ready for not just this day but get us ready for the day we get called home. Clean us today and help us stay clean by repenting from sins. Lord, it is hard down here on earth, and we really want to walk each day with Jesus. Keep us safe and sound and help us each day to not just live for You, but to walk in Your light and to tell others about Jesus and to share the blessings that You give to us. Again, we really appreciate You watching over us and our families, and we really appreciate this morning wash job today... In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Wash Job 5: It is time for that wash job folks, please get that juice and bread. If you must, use water, for you remember Jesus did turn water to wine, and you may also use a piece of bread from your lunch bag or even a cracker from a machine. The important is that you go to God clean and you really believe in this supper with the King. Ready? I am.... In fact Dolores and I already had communion together as we did our morning Bible study. Now I get the wonderful chance to commune with all of you.

Dear Father in Heaven, please bless each person taking communion this day and bless the bread, the juice, and make it meaningful to us this day. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Luke 22: 19 - And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." (NIV)

Take now your bread and eat of it, and each time you eat of the bread, each time you break bread, each time you eat, pray and remember Jesus... Ready, let's eat the body... Hmm. Thank You, Jesus, thanks for Your broken body, Your body broken over and over again on the cross.

Sometimes we forget that a spike driven through the hands and feet would break the bones... and the sword into the side would cut and break the body. His body really was broken for us. REMEMBER IT.

Luke 22: 20 - In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you." (NIV)

Take now the cup and drink of it, This is the cleaning power I have been leading up to all week... It will never get better than this till we get to our home in Heaven. Enjoy this, and folks try and stay clean. Keep away from sin and evil. Please, will you now drink with me? Praise You Jesus, Thank You Jesus, You are wonderful, my dear Jesus. Thanks for forgiving us this day, dear Lord. May we walk each day with and for You. I love You Lord... I really do... In Jesus name, AMEN, AMEN.

What a great morning, my dear brothers and sisters, go now and be clean, and remember to share those blessings. Tell someone how you started the day. Maybe someday you can lead communion with your friends at lunch. Love ya, dan. And when I say I love you, I really do...
