JESUS CHRIST LIVES TO INTERCEDE FOR US

JESUS CHRIST LIVES TO INTERCEDE FOR US

God’s powerful word in Hebrews 7:25 (NKJV) declares, “Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.”  Jesus Christ lives to pray for us because His heart’s desire is to saved us.  Jesus said (John 8:29), “…The Father has not left Me alone, for I ALWAYS DO THOSE THINGS THAT PLEASE HIM.”   Jesus Christ wants to be our Savior and Lord so that He can bring us back into right relationship with God, His Father.  SALVATION is a MAJOR PRIORITY in the Kingdom of God.  Since SALVATION is a MAJOR PRIORITY with Jesus Christ and God the Father, shouldn’t it be a major priority with us, if we are God’s people? Jesus Christ is at the right hand of the Father and He lives to make intercession for us to bring souls into the Kingdom of God while there is still time. He is able to save to the uttermost, those who want to be saved, IF WE COME TO GOD THROUGH HIM.  Can you imagine that someone is living to pray for us so that we will be saved?  YES, and His Name is JESUS CHRIST!  Not only does He pray for our Salvation, but He lives to pray for us always and in every situation as confirmed in Romans 8:34-35.  “…It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, WHO ALSO MAKES INTERCESSION FOR US. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?”  Nothing will separate us from the love of God and the love of Christ Jesus, no matter what is happening in our lives.  Praise be to our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ for having an awesome, compassionate heart to always intercede for us.

                                               

Would you like to be saved and develop a relationship with God as your Heavenly Father?  If you would really like to know God, invite His Son, Jesus Christ, into your heart.  Please pray this prayer:  Dear God, please forgive me of my sins.  I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is Your Son.  I believe that He died on the cross, shed His blood, and rose from the grave for my salvation.  I confess Jesus right now as my Savior and Lord.  God fill me with your Holy Spirit so that I can live a life that pleases You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen!  If you prayed this prayer and meant it, based on Roman 10:9-10, you are saved.  Welcome into God’s Family!
