DAY 1 EASTER REVIVALS
THEME: THE DAY AMONGST THE DAY
(Luke 22:3–20,31–34)
1. The Betrayal and Preparation (Verses 3–13)
The passage begins with a dark shift: Satan enters Judas Iscariot, who then conspires with the chief priests to betray Jesus for money. Meanwhile, Jesus sends Peter and John to prepare the Passover meal. He gives them specific, supernatural instructions to find a man carrying a jar of water who will lead them to a furnished upper room.
2. The Institution of the Lord’s Supper (Verses 14–20)
As they sit down to eat, Jesus expresses his deep desire to share this meal with them before his suffering. He introduces a new covenant:
* The Bread: He breaks it, identifying it as his body given for them.
* The Wine: He identifies the cup as the "new covenant in my blood," poured out for the forgiveness of sins.
This established the ritual of Communion, asking his followers to do this in remembrance of him.
3. The Warning to Peter (Verses 31–34)
The tone shifts to the personal spiritual battle facing the disciples. Jesus reveals that Satan has asked to "sift" them like wheat, but Jesus has prayed specifically for Peter that his faith would not fail.
* Peter’s Boldness: Peter confidently declares he is ready to go to prison or even die with Jesus.
* The Prediction: Jesus gently corrects him, predicting that before the rooster crows the next morning, Peter will deny knowing him three times.
Key Takeaways for "The Day Amongst the Day"
these verses highlight how a normal religious holiday (the Passover) was transformed by two life-altering realities:
* The sacrificial love of Christ (The Bread and Wine).
* The human frailty and betrayal (Judas's plot and Peter's coming denial).
