“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” (John 14:6 ESV)
“For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:5 ESV)
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 ESV)
Now that the holiday season is here, the hustle and bustle begins. Mad dash for gifts started yesterday with Black Friday.
I avoid stores like the plague on black Friday. It’s just not worth it to me to fight the crowds. But even though the holiday season has started, we need to remember the whole reason for the season. Jesus. Jesus left heaven to live on earth. His life wasn’t very long but he got a lot accomplished in just a few short years. He lived and died so we can have life eternal in heaven. He died a very painful death so we could live. He bore our sins on the cross. Jesus loves us, He helps fight our battles and He provides for us. He also heals our sicknesses. Jesus intercedes for us with God. He goes before the King for us. Think about it. Jesus goes before God to intercede on our behalf.
I think that’s a pretty great thing. He goes before God to intercede for me! When I am too worried about things, Jesus goes to God for me. He does the same thing for you too. Jesus will intercede for you too. So no matter what’s going on in your life, let Jesus intercede before God for you. Let Jesus fight your battles. I don’t think you’ll won’t regret it.
Have a blessed day everyone.
