The Devotion to the most precious Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ is not a new thing in the Holy Catholic Church. It is even as old as the first "Holy Thursday" when Jesus instituted the priesthood and the Holy Eucharist. The proclamation of the following words on the night before He suffered: "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in the memory of me. This is God’s new covenant sealed with my Blood which is poured for you" (Luke 22:19-20), evoked from the apostles a sublime religious enthusiasm or reverence. Before then, Jesus has performed great miracles, but they saw the miracles of miracles in the institution of the Holy Eucharist, the Sacrifice of the Cross, and the Sacrifice of the New Law, the most admirable Sacrament, the wondrous presence, and the abiding memorial of Christ’s Passion. We must continue to proclaim the Lord’s death until He returns (Corinthians 11:26).
And as long as the Church continues to celebrate the Holy Eucharist in obedience to the Lord’s command, the church will always maintain the word "Do this in memory of me" as her devotion to the Precious Blood and Body of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Receiving Him in the Holy Communion and actively participating in the Holy Mass is the best way for us to show Devotion to the Eucharistic Lord.
