He is Waiting to Intercede for Us

Ephesians 2:10
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

We are the handiwork of the creator of the entire universe, but not merely as creatures, but as new creatures in Christ.  We were prepared before hand with the capacity to perform good works for the pleasure, the praise and the honor of Almighty God.  We were created not just to perform one good work but to continue to walk in a series of good works.  We were created to perform righteous and holy work as visible representatives of Our Savior.

There is nothing that we will face in life that is too big or too small for Jesus to overcome for us.  He is waiting to comfort us and guide us and intercede for us in every minute detail and in every seemingly insurmountable circumstance in our lives.  Once we receive Jesus as Our Savior, it is His promise that He will insure that we are successful in carrying out His plans for our lives.

Why should we try to rely on our own power when we have the power of the creator and sustainer of the universe available to us?  We should rejoice and seek Jesus in every element of our lives.  We should submit every breathing moment to Him.  He awaits!!

Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your Son, Jesus, who comforts us, guides us and intercedes for us.  We pray that You teach us how to put all of our trust in Him.  We ask that You shield us from all the distractions that we bring into our own lives.  May we learn to walk in the ways that Jesus shows us.  May the Holy Spirit guide us and strengthen us as we seek to endeavor in the righteous and holy work of Your kingdom.  We ask all these things in the name of Our Righteous and Holy King, Jesus Christ.
