The Cup in the Hand of the Lord

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

 Recently I've come across some verses about the cup in the hand of the Lord. There are several scriptures that refer to the cup that is in God's hand. 

Psalm 75:8 says, "For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed, and he pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs."

The cup in God's hand usually refers to the cup of his wrath. But when before Jesus went to the cross he prayed asking God "to let the cup pass from him." 

He was willing to have the cup of God's wrath poured onto him so that we can have the cup of blessing and of participation in the New Covenant. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that through the obedience of Jesus we are righteous, and that we can now have the cup of the New Covenant.
