Praying from 1 Corinthians 11:25. Themes: Redemption, Covenant, Sacrifice.

Dear Lord, as we partake in the cup after supper, we remember your sacrifice and the new covenant you made with us through your blood. Help us to always remember your love and grace, and to honor you in all that we do. May this act of communion strengthen our faith and bring us closer to you. In your holy name we pray, Amen.

Verse: In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying,“This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”
1 Corinthians 11:25

This is a Command. The reader is commanded to drink the cup in memory of Jesus.
