Christ's intercessory work on our behalf is based on His all-redeeming love and precious blood, which pleads for our forgiveness and saves us from our sins. His sacrifice was sufficient to pay the penalty for the whole human race, and He is the propitiation for our sins and the sins of the whole world.

Yeah. Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. For me to intercede. Wherefore He is able to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him. Seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Hebrews 7, 25. The second verse of the moving old hymn, Arise, My Soul, Arise, speaks of Christ's intercessory work on our behalf and the basis on which His prayers are accepted. He ever lives above. me to intercede. His all redeeming love, his precious blood, to plead.
His blood atoned for all our race And sprinkles now the throne of grace. Christ is our intercessor. Pleading with the Father to save us from our sins. for which the penalty has been paid by his sacrifice for this he did once when he offered up himself. It is the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot, that pleads for our forgiveness.
He does this for us because He loves us and washed us from our sins in His own blood as we come to God in repentant faith. Because Jesus was himself a fully righteous man, he could die on another's behalf because he was fully God the Son. his death was sufficient to pay the penalty for the whole human race. Jesus Christ the righteous, and He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. Thou art worthy, for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.
Revelation 5.9 Only in this way can we come to the General Assembly and the Church of the First Born, which are written in heaven, and to God, the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect. and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling.
