Christ Is 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…
(And) the Son… has been
perfected forever (v27-28).
Lord, praise You for being
not just our Saviour, but also
our great High Priest, our
representative and our surety.
Thank You Lord for Your constant
care for us; and always praying
for me before the throne of God.
And I ask You for grace to make
my life conform 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 Lord in Your intercession,
You are our eternal High Priest
always praying for us and You
can save completely. 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.
