The Competence to Save

UV 3411/10000 The Competence to Save
Therefore He is able also to save forever ( completely, perfectly, for eternity) those who come to God though Him, since He always lives to intercede and intervene on their behalf with God.
Hebrews 7 v 25

Jesus described Himself as the Way as He is the way through which weak and sinful people like us can approach the holy, infinite, just, perfect God, our Father in heaven. Jesus after His resurrection and enthronement at the right hand of the Father intercedes for us all the time. He is our true and High Priest who holds the office of priesthood permanently and without change. If satan and people who do not believe God are like the wind, Jesus is the eternal and unchanging Rock in whom we can hide from the former. He enables us to escape the judgement of God having placed our faith in absolution by His shed blood on the cross. He rescues us also daily from may critical situations and crises. He acts as a Guarantor of our faith before the Lord God. Regardless of our past misdeeds, He gives us a clean chit and attributes righteousness by faith and grace to us. He makes us look good even in our own eyes.

Since Jesus unlike the Jewish High Priests has no need to purify Himself to enter the presence of God, He has access to the throne of God all the time. He effectively intervenes on our behalf and intercedes for our souls all the time. There is no burden, too big or too small that we cannot carry to Him in prayer. There is no goal that cannot be attained with His help and active assistance. He removes barriers in our paths that we ourselves cannot perceive. He is competent to save us from every conceivable situation. Hence, we can repose complete confidence and trust in Him.

If we believe in ourselves or other people, some things are possible but if we believe in God through Christ, everything is possible, nothing is impossible or improbable. We have complete freedom and boldness to approach the throne of the Almighty in Christ. We have the confidence that since God in His love did not withhold even His own beloved Son, He will not withhold whatever we need. We realize that our greatest need is to revel and bask in His love.
