Monday, February 8, 2021 He's Praying for Us "Therefore he is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf" (Hebrews 7:25 NLT). When people ask me to pray for them, I always try to do it immediately. That way, I don't forget. It's also a good thing to ask other Christians to remember us in prayer when we're facing a crisis. Without question, there's power in unified prayer. Jesus said, "If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them" (Matthew 18:19-20 NLT). He's also in Heaven interceding for us right now. The Bible tells us that Jesus Christ "is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf" (Hebrews 7:25 NLT). And the apostle Paul wrote, "Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God's right hand, pleading for us" (Romans 8:34 NLT). Robert Murray M'Cheyne, a 19th-century Scottish pastor, said, "If I could hear Christ praying for me in the next room, I would not fear a million enemies. Yet the distance makes no difference; he is praying for me." |
