00:00:00 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17 Thanks.
00:00:19 Jesus said,
00:00:20 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30 There is also a sense in which we are continually,
00:00:33 in a present, ongoing sense,
00:00:36 continually being saved by the life of Jesus,
00:00:39 reconciled to the triune God by the death of Jesus,
00:00:43 but also we have been saved, are being saved,
00:00:46 and will be saved by the life of Jesus.
00:00:50 And in this context, the apostle does not speak
00:00:53 of the life of Jesus before his death,
00:00:56 meaning his incarnate life here on earth,
00:01:00 his sinless life and his earthly ministry
00:01:02 leading up to his death on the cross.
00:01:05 But the apostle speaks of the life of Jesus even now.
00:01:11 The life of Jesus where he's now seated
00:01:14 at the right hand of the Father,
00:01:17 interceding on behalf of all those who belong to him.
00:01:23 That we were saved, we were reconciled to God by his death,
00:01:28 but we are being saved by his high priestly interceding mediating heavenly life that as
00:01:40 Jesus lives he ever lives to make intercession for us and he is the great mediator of all the
00:01:50 covenant promises to those who believe.
00:01:56 Jesus is praying for you, even now as I speak.
00:02:02 If you're in Christ by grace through faith,
00:02:06 he is your high priest.
00:02:08 There is one God and one mediator between man and God,
00:02:12 the God-man Christ Jesus.
00:02:15 And as he lives, he lives to make intercession for you.
00:02:20 And the wonderful thing about the prayers of Jesus is that
00:02:24 there's not a single prayer of Christ that is an answer.
00:02:29 His prayers are effectual.
00:02:33 His prayers, they always work.
00:02:38 When Jesus says to Peter, before his arrest,
00:02:42 as Peter is boasting of his loyalty, his allegiance to Christ,
00:02:45 that even if all these Peter says
00:02:49 all these disciples that I've always thought
00:02:51 I was better than and I let them know from time to time
00:02:54 even if all these peons abandon you
00:02:57 and they probably will Peter has no shame
00:02:59 I will never leave you
00:03:02 Jesus responds by saying I tell you before
00:03:05 that the rooster crows thrice
00:03:08 you'll deny me
00:03:10 you'll deny me three times
00:03:14 and then Jesus goes on
00:03:19 and he says to Peter
00:03:21 he says Satan has asked
00:03:24 to sift you like wheat
00:03:26 Satan has asked
00:03:29 for permission to torment you
00:03:34 to give it his best shot
00:03:37 to completely rob you
00:03:40 of your faith in me 0.51
00:03:42 and you would hope if you were Peter
00:03:45 that Jesus would respond to Satan
00:03:48 by saying no
00:03:49 you do not have permission
00:03:52 I mean Satan goes to Jesus
00:03:54 and asks to have Peter
00:03:56 that he might sift him like wheat
00:03:58 if I were Peter
00:04:00 I would want Jesus to respond
00:04:01 simply by saying no
00:04:03 you can't have him
00:04:04 but that's not what Jesus says
00:04:07 Jesus says
00:04:09 but I have prayed for you
00:04:12 that your faith may not fail.
00:04:14 And when you have returned,
00:04:16 go and strengthen your brothers also.
00:04:20 Essentially, when Satan comes to Jesus
00:04:24 and asks for permission to have Peter,
00:04:27 that he might sift him as wheat,
00:04:29 Jesus responds, the implication is
00:04:31 he responds by saying, yes, you can do that.
00:04:35 But the reason why Peter is secure
00:04:38 is not because Jesus tells Satan, no.
00:04:41 The reason why Peter is secure
00:04:42 is because Jesus commits to praying for him.
00:04:46 And the prayers of Jesus are always answered.
00:04:50 There's not a single prayer of Jesus that ever fails.
00:04:54 If Jesus is praying for your preservation,
00:04:58 you will be preserved.
00:05:00 If Jesus is praying for your sanctification,
00:05:03 you will be sanctified.
00:05:06 If Jesus is praying for your security
00:05:09 and protection you will be secure for all those who have been saved by grace through faith
00:05:19 jesus is our high priest he is our mediator we've been reconciled to the triune god by his death
00:05:27 but we are not only in a past sense been saved but we are being saved by christ's life
00:05:34 what life the life he now lives not just the life that he lived in his earthly ministry before
00:05:42 the cross but the life he presently lives and forever lives at the right hand of the father
00:05:47 where he is now seated praying for you and i thanks so much for listening but real quick
00:05:53 before you go do us a small favor take a moment and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed
00:05:59 the show. This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically faithful
00:06:04 content to as many people as possible. Thanks so much.
