Glorified Prayer

Romans 8: 34
Jesus Christ is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.

I want you to see how fully and completely Father God provided for your spiritual health and your overall well-being. Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father praying on your behalf.

All three parts of the trinity pray for you. Jesus and the Holy Spirit make intercession for you and the Father promised that He would give you the words to say when you speak. There are many needs that we each have and some of them we have not even thought of, for example the need to have someone who is constantly looking after our prayer life and helping us with it. Before you even knew that you had that need, God had already provided ministers. He has appointed two members of the trinity, parts of the God head itself to pray for you. He has appointed the most powerful; the best informed prayer counselors there are or could ever be to pray for you and with you. This is how completely God meets your needs. He has provided His own son and His own Spirit to pray for you. He didn’t just appoint a couple of angels or even a couple of the arch angels. He has said in His own spirit that nothing less than the very best will be good enough for those who love God.

And can’t you just see Jesus seated on God’s right hand side leaning over to talk with Him. Do you suppose that God hears every word that Jesus utters? Think about that image. Picture it in your mind and then realize that Jesus is talking to God about you. And do you know there is nothing else the Father would rather talk about than you. That is why He has given Jesus this ministry. If God didn’t want to hear about you He would not have appointed the guy at his side the job of praying for you; especially when He could have assigned it to anyone. Do you see that this role of the Holy Spirit and Jesus is so important to God that He made it a priority of the ones closest to Him?

The Bible is full of good news but this one ought to make you jump and shout. God has not abandoned nor forsaken you. He has appointed the most powerful beings in the universe to constantly intercede for you. God’s love for you and His care of you know no bounds. How can we know that God loves us? I think the fact that He has apportioned the care of you to His glorified Son and to His own Spirit speaks as loudly as I can imagine. God wants to talk with you. He wants you to enter His throne room and talk with Him about all that you care about, but He loves you so much that He is not willing that your issues wait to be heard when you get the time to pray. He has arranged it so that He has a 24 hour a day live feed. There is nothing in this world or any other that is more important to Him. That now seems obvious.
