God Paid in Full
The initial work of Jesus’s intercession was the sprinkling of his blood on every bond and debt we owed, then Jesus began to pray for us, interceding to the Father on our behalf.
He Still Prays for Us
Satan comes before the throne of grace to accuse us. That is when Jesus steps up and advocates for us, and the devil was forced to leave with a sound rebuke.
God’s Unlimited Resources
When God tells us he has our needed supply, it is not just a meager amount. God has everything we need. His ability to meet our situation is endless.
The Stone’s Other Side
All too often, as Christians endure the trials of life, they see no hope beyond their difficult situation. However, at that moment, God is on the move in our lives.
The Blood of Jesus
If Christ is Lord of believers’ life, our doorposts have been sprinkled by his blood. This is not for forgiveness only but also for protection against the powers of Satan.
Our Greatest Comfort
Grace is given to believers through the prayers of the High Priest Jesus. He is touched by the feelings of our infirmities, and he acts in mercy.
Jesus’s Prayer for Us
Jesus is praying for transgressors who haven’t yet turned to him. Scripture says he can save to the uttermost, meaning to the end of time, all who will ever come to him.
Our High Priest
Incense in the Bible represents prayer, and the ever-burning incense on that altar in the Holy Place represents the prayers of Jesus while he was on earth.
Forgiveness vs Trust
Forgiveness isn’t an option for us. God has forgiven those who come humbly to him seeking a new life in Christ; however, forgiveness and trust don’t necessarily go hand-in-hand.
The Word Carved in Hearts
If believers listen to sermons and celebrate God without carving the Word into our hearts, and evils in our communities will never truly leave us.
