TONIGHT…I WILL RECLINE AT HIS TABLE

Luke 22:14 When the HOUR came, Jesus and his apostles RECLINED AT THE TABLE.

RECLINE is defined as: TO REST in a leaning position.

Tonight, the Christian church all over the world will remember…and some will come to RECLINE AT THE TABLE in remembrance of OUR LORD’S LAST SUPPER with His disciples. But let me paint the picture of Jesus’ Passover meal. First, we have to understand what the PASSOVER MEAL represented before that day.

Deuteronomy 16:3 Do not eat it with BREAD made with YEAST, but for seven days eat unleavened bread, THE BREAD OF AFFLICTION, because you left Egypt in hast_ so that all the days of your life you may REMEMBER the time of your departure from Egypt.

The YEAST represents: pain, slavery, UNREST, hard labor and in essence Egypt…that is human works.

Psalm 127:2 It is VAIN for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the BREAD OF SORROWS; for he gives His beloved sleep.
