Can Communion become a block to healing?

 Communion is a chance to be healed and give thanks to the Lord for the healing that was received thru Christ broken body.  

Luk 22:19-20 KJVR

(19)  And he took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

(20)  Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Trouble is, we don’t take communion worthly

1Co 11:27-30 KJVR

(27)  Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

(28)  But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

(29)  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.

(30)  For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

Before we partake of the wine (blood) and the bread (body) we need to turn any open, unconfessed, unrepented sin in our life over to the Lord.  This is especially true of the sin of unforgiveness since we are actually drinking the wine  (blood) to acknowledge the forgiveness of sins thru the shed blood of Christ.  This is why the Lord commands us to forgive those that offend and hurt us.  When we eat the bread it represents the broken beat up, spat on , paraded thru the streets naked body of Christ. We are to claim the healing we received thru the stripes. Note:(v:29) Must ensure that there is no unforgiveness or bitterness your holding on to, ask the Lord to bring anything to mind that would make you unworthy to partake of the Lords body. It would be better not to take communion at all, than to take it unworthly.
