Institution of the Lord’s Supper
23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, [a]“Take, eat; this is My body which is [b]broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

“1 Samuel 17:27-37
New King James Version
27 And the people answered him in this manner, saying, “So shall it be done for the man who kills him.”
28 Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger was aroused against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.”
29 And David said, “What have I done now? Is[a] there not a cause?” 30 Then he turned from him toward another and said the same thing; and these people answered him as the first ones did.
31 Now when the words which David spoke were heard, they reported them to Saul; and he sent for him. 32 Then David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
33 And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”
34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father’s sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, 35 I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God.” 37 Moreover David said, “The Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.”
And Saul said to David, “Go, and the Lord be with you!”

“17:32-37 | Judging by appearances only, David was no champion. But he would rely on the Champion of Israel to deliver him from the enemy. See note on 17:4-50.’
’17:34-37 | Before he gained prominence as Israel’s champion and king, David learned humility and confidence in the Lord while out in the fields tending sheep, with no one but God watching. Only faithfulness in the small things prepares God’s servants for greater service in His kingdom (Luke 16:10).” (THE JEREMIAH STUDY BIBLE—DR. DAVID JEREMIAH—NEW KING JAMES STUDY BIBLE—WORTHY)
Beloved of YESHUA CHRIST JESUS, though we have already studied this (Note on 17:4-50) by the leading of our LORD’S Holy Spirit, let us go back over it to glean whatever we may have missed the first time. Amen.
Well beloved, you don’t have to go over it again, but know for sure that satan does not rest, neither will I, for the LORD my GOD is GOD, the One and Only GOD and where He leads, I will go; that I can be witness to my LORD-GOD stomping the demon out of satan and all his imps. Amen.
Therefore, should you have no desire to go over these Scriptures and the teachings of them again, then I’ll join with you when you decide to rejoin with me: if you rejoin with me. Amen.
But! I said But! As for me and my house, we will follow the LORD my GOD, the GOD and Father of my Savior and LORD-YESHUA CHRIST JESUS, and His Holy Spirit, the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, my GOD and Savior. Amen. Amen. Amen.
Come on now, say Amen! Amen!
“17:4-50 | In the ancient world, wars were sometimes decided in a head-to-head battle between two champions. People believed that the gods determined the matter through those two warriors. Throughout this account, David’s youth (17:14, 33, 42) and Goliath’s experience (17:4, 23, 33) are emphasized. By earthly accounts, only one of them was a man of war.” (THE JEREMIAH STUDY BIBLE—DR. DAVID JEREMIAH—NEW KING JAMES STUDY BIBLE—WORTHY)
Let him who has an ear, hear what the Holy Spirit says to His church. Amen.
Have a blessed Wednesday beloved of YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. Amen. Sincerely: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy M. and Linda Shephard. Amen.
