Communion Devotional

How can it be? There is a table for all who would come, for all who would come. Taste now and see, there is a table for all who would come. Scriptures: Revelation 3:14-22 (NIV) John 3:16 (NIV) Devotional: “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.” - Revelation 3:19-20 NIV Each of the seven letters in the book of Revelation contain stern warnings, rebukes, and admonitions toward a purer faith and trust in Christ. The seventh letter to Laodicea is no exception. But this letter is unique in stating why: “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline.” Here, Jesus explains why His critique to His Church is important and valid—it proves His deep love for His people. The next lines are equally encouraging. Jesus stands at the door of people's hearts awaiting invitation to their lives. His use of, “I will come in and eat with that person” not only communicates His love, but His desire to spend time with people. In other words, God not only loves, but He likes and desires communion or togetherness with His people. That is to say, God loves us and is also deeply fond of us—He wants friendship with you. What encouragement! Christ's promise is that “anyone” who hears and opens the door will be the recipient of this great blessing. This echoes the promise found in the famous words of the book of John: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NIV). One of the greatest glories of the mighty love of God is that it is not for a select few or a unique type of person. Instead, His love has been lavishly offered to all, freely given without condition. This is the staggering truth of the Christian faith, and why it is good for us to prayerfully reflect: “How can it be? There is a table for all who would come, for all who would come. Taste now and see, there is a table for all who would come." Ephesians encourages us to reach out and grasp this profound truth and mystery: “I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” (Ephesians 3:17-19 NIV) May this be our portion. Amen. Original post by Brooke Ligertwood available on YouVersion. A seven-day devotional through the 'seven letters' to the churches in the book of Revelation (chapters 2-3).

Hymn For Communion Devotional

There is something sacred about simplicity—especially when it comes to remembering what matters most. Michael W. Smith returns with a quiet but powerful reminder rooted in one of the oldest practices of the Church: coming to the table. Not with noise, not with striving—but with open hands. “Break the bread and lift the cup, the Body and the Blood.” These words don't rush us. They slow us down. They invite us to pause long enough to remember that our faith is not built on what we bring, but on what Christ has already given. Communion has always been more than a ritual. It is a declaration. A confession. A re-centering of the heart. He will always be enough. In seasons of celebration, it's easy to say those words. Gratitude flows naturally when prayers are answered and life feels full. But this truth is not anchored in circumstances—it is anchored in Christ Himself. When life feels uncertain…When prayers seem unanswered…When strength feels thin… He will always be enough. The bread reminds us His body was broken—fully, completely, willingly. The cup reminds us His blood was poured out—not partially, but abundantly. There is no gap left for us to fill. No shortage in His sacrifice. No moment where His sufficiency runs dry. This is where quiet confidence is born. Not in control.Not in clarity.But in Christ. And maybe that's why songs like this matter so deeply. They don't try to impress—they help us remember. They give language to what our hearts already long to believe but sometimes forget: that Jesus is not just enough in theory… He is enough right now. Today, take a moment to sit in that truth. Whether in a crowded room or a quiet space, whether your faith feels strong or fragile—come back to the table in your heart. Break the bread.Lift the cup.Remember the Body and the Blood. And let this confession rise again, steady and unshaken: He will always be enough.
