How do we know Christ's intercession is effective?

Answered in 2 sources

Christ's intercession is effective because it silences all accusations against His people, as He stands as their justified advocate before God.

The effectiveness of Christ's intercession is rooted in His role as our substitute and advocate. Romans 8:33-34 assures us that it is God who justifies, and Christ who died and intercedes for us at God's right hand. This means that despite the multitude of accusations made against us, none can stand because justice has already been satisfied by Christ’s sacrifice. The sermon emphasizes that Christ’s intercession is not just a formality; it is the very means by which believers are ensured peace and security in their relationship with God. His active advocacy before the Father declares us 'not guilty' in light of the charges laid against us.
