OUR HIGHER LIFE IN HIM. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he comes (1 Corinthians 11:26). The Greek word translated "shew" is "kataggello" which means to declare, announce, and to teach. This is why taking the Holy Communion is so significant because as we participate in the communion, we announce to devils of darkness, angels, and all creation, the death of Jesus Christ, and the glory that should follow. It’s a celebration of the indestructible life that we now have in Him. Because He died, we now have a glorious life! Matthew 8:17 declares, "That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." If He bore your infirmities and sicknesses, then you should never be sick! However, as glorious as this truth is, there’s a higher level. The understanding at the babyhood stage that Jesus took your infirmities and sicknesses is good. However, beyond that is a higher level of awareness and recognition that being born again, the life of God is actually in you now: that transcendent life, beyond sickness and disease. This higher knowledge is what you should really study, and train yourself to live by. Set your gaze on the Word; have the consciousness that eternal life is in you now. Rejoice in who you are in Christ now. In Him, you have a new life that’s superior to Satan, sickness, infirmities and death. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says "...if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." Celebrate your higher life in Him.
