How do we know Jesus intercedes for us?

Answered in 7 sources

The Bible assures us that Jesus intercedes for His people, as stated in Romans 8:34, where it affirms His position at God's right hand.

Romans 8:34 clearly states, 'Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea, rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.' This passage reveals Christ's continuous work on our behalf in heaven, representing us before the Father. His intercessory role is crucial in Reformed theology as it highlights our reliance on Christ's righteousness rather than our own. Jesus intercedes based on His atoning sacrifice, ensuring that those He has chosen will be saved completely, echoing the certainty of God's promises.
