The Great Advocate
May 5, 2025
Self-condemnation is one of the evil arrows in the devil’s quiver. It’s certainly one of the enemy’s weapons deployed in attacking many Christians today.
The enemy also tries to remind you of sins committed in the past, which you have repented of, suggesting that perhaps God has not forgiven and forgotten them. No wonder the Bible refers to the devil as the accuser of the brethren.
However, God is always several steps ahead of the enemy’s antics, and He has made provision for Jesus Christ to stand as our advocate in heaven’s court, pleading our cause and interceding on our behalf whenever the devil presents his accusations against us.
The Holy Spirit also intercedes on our behalf whenever we err, repented and forsaken them but our soul is still cast down.
After convincing us of whatever sins we may have committed, He comforts and encourages us to rise up from the pit of sin, and never return to it again but take our rightful place in the bosom of our loving Father.
Beloved, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice that will cover these sins. Heb 10:26
Father, thank You for the forgiveness of my sins and for Your work as my Advocate in heaven’s court IJN.
Shalom!
