It’s All About God
God Intercedes
Romans 8:26-28
When we are guilty (when we have sinned), Jesus is our advocate/attorney; Our defender; Our “intercessor.”
Why would God include Moses’ appeal in the Bible? Because God wanted us to see what intercession looks like.
But a lot of times, People feel like God’s not listening because they don’t feel worthy of His attention.
Because of Jesus’ blood and His intercession, we have confidence and assurance to draw near to God with our prayers and petitions.
But, just in case you worry that your prayers aren’t reaching beyond the ceiling, God assures us that we don’t have to worry. We have a “HOT LINE” to the throne.
But they don’t have to worry about that because the Spirit feels their emptiness. He searches your heart, and He senses your sorrow and pain.
That’s the imagery of Romans 8. That’s what the Holy Spirit does when He intercedes for you.
