Exodus 12:7-9
7 "Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. 8 They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. 9 Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts.
A young lamb was sacrificed for the Passover feast before the children of Israel were to come out of Egypt. The lamb had to be killed at the threshold of the door of a house so that the family was able to roast it over fire. These speak of the body of Jesus Christ which was burnt, scourged and striped for our healing! Jesus Christ bore the full blunt of God's wrath and punishment. The blood that was placed on the doorposts and the lintel and the blood on the threshold signified the precious blood of Jesus shed on the cross. It speaks of the forgiveness of our sins at the cross!
Luke 22:19-20
19 And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, " This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."
20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, " This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.
This passage in the new testament tells the same thing regarding the Passover feast. Now, instead of a young lamb, Jesus said that His body and His blood are to consumed for our wholeness and right standing with God. In another portion of the bible it says partake of the Passover feast as often as we want in remembrance of Jesus Christ and His finished work at the cross. We keep partaking of the Passover feast to remember that Jesus has bore all our diseases and pains on His body so that we, today, can enjoy robust health.
Also, Jesus wants us to remember His precious blood has been shed for our righteousness! All our sins are forgiven and at the cross Jesus divinely exchanged His state of righteousness for our state of sin! We can come to the throne of God, aka throne of grace, boldly in times of need to cry out Abba, Father. It is His delight to hear our prayers and it is His joy to answer our prayers.
Hey, wait! God doesn't answer our prayers. He will answer exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us! That's the grace of God! He is so BIG that He cannot contain His richness of blessings but to bless His children with much more! Wow! See the love of Abba. See His heart yearning for us to take and take from Him. It is His pleasure to supply to us, all the times.
Proverbs 9:1-2
1 Wisdom has built her house, She has hewn out her seven pillars; 2 She has slaughtered her meat, She has mixed her wine, She has also furnished her table.
I believe Proverbs 9 speaks of wisdom been imparted to us when we partake of the Passover feast, aka Holy Communion. So, when we want more of God's wisdom to flow into our lives, partake of the Holy Communion more often. How difficult it is for us to just eat and drink of Jesus' body and His precious blood? Jesus has taken the impossible part on our behalf so that we can "feast" in His finished work! Hallelujah!
Don't partake of the Holy Communion unworthily. Do not despise the simple things of God. It costs God His only begotten Son to died at the cross so that we can just enjoy our salvation now. Give thanks to God! Hallelujah!
