Christ Always Interceding For Us
God spoke in times past through the prophets, but He has reserved the declaration of His glory for His Son. By His death, Jesus lifts mankind into the family of God. Because of His perfect humanity, Jesus is uniquely qualified to serve as High Priest for sinful mankind. Moses was a servant in God’s household, but Christ is the divine Son over God’s household. And Christ will bring His people into the eternal resting place of heaven.
Lord, You Will Intercede For Us:
The Lord has sworn and will not relent; You are a priest forever…
by so much more Jesus has
become a surety of a better
covenant (Hebrews 7:21-22).
There were many priests under
the old system, for death prevented
them from remaining in office.
But because Jesus lives forever,
He has a permanent priesthood.
Therefore He is able to save
completely those who come
to God through Him, because
He always lives to intercede
for them (Heb 7:23-25)... For this He did once for all when He offered up Himself (v27).
Lord, praise U for being not just our Saviour, but also our great High Priest and our representative. Thank you for your constant care for us. Thank you for praying for me continually before the throne of God. And I ask you for grace to make my life & actions confirm to Your will. Amen.
Lord Jesus, thank you that in your earthly life, You are the example, showing us how to live. In your death, You are the perfect sacrifice, satisfying for all our sins. In Your resurrection & ascension, you are our conqueror and king. And in your intercession, you are our eternal High Priest always praying for us in the power of Your indestructible eternal life. Amen.
Dear Lord Jesus, Thank You for all that You have done for us. Thanks for the book of Hebrews that shows Your completeness. Thanks we can access directly to You for help in our challenges. Grant us confidence as you have promised to remember our labour, to be our steadfast anchor; and to always Intercede For Us. Amen
