Imagine having a friend who NEVER lets you down.
Imagine having a friend who not only never lets you down, but goes beyond that in looking for ways to make your life more fulfilling.
I want a friend like that and so do you.
All we have to do is just ask and we will.
I’m talking about the One mentioned in the hymn, What a Friend We Have in Jesus.
Yes, we know that Jesus died on the cross for our sins so that we can accept the gift of eternal life when we confess Him with our words and baptism.
But His desire is not just to save us.
He also desires to help us.
Check out this verse from today’s reading in the One-Year Bible.
“He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf.” (Hebrews 7:25)
Wow.
At the top of Jesus’ agenda today is interceding with God on your behalf.
That is an amazing promise.
Whatever prayer you speak in Jesus’ name, guess what’s going to happen to it?
Jesus is taking it to God.
Whatever scheme Satan is cooking up to trip you up, guess who is asking God to draw the boundary for how much Satan can tempt?
Jesus, that’s whom.
Like Job said in chapter 16 of his book, we have an advocate on high.
I like that fact.
It comforts me in knowing that I’m not alone.
Ever.
Please make sure Jesus is on the throne of your heart. That way, you’ll be sure to have Him taking all of your needs to the throne of God.
As always, I love you
Martin
