Introduction
When life overwhelms us with guilt, failure, or fear, Romans 8:34 brings clarity and comfort: Christ Jesus is the One who died, rose again, and now intercedes for us. This verse doesn’t just remind us of what Jesus has done—it assures us of what He is doing right now.

We have an Advocate at the right hand of God who knows us, loves us, and pleads on our behalf. The same Jesus who bore our sins is the One who stands in our defense—every moment of every day.

Romans 8:34 – Christ, Our Intercessor

Verse Focus:

“Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.” — Romans 8:34

Context & Connection:

Following the assurance that no one can bring a charge against God’s elect (Romans 8:33), Paul now declares that no one can condemn us either. Why? Because Jesus Christ Himself—our Savior, Redeemer, and Advocate—died for us, rose again, and now intercedes for us at the right hand of God.

Devotional Insight:

Condemnation is a powerful weapon of the enemy. Many believers struggle with guilt and shame over past sins, feeling unworthy of God’s love. But Paul reminds us that Christ has already paid the penalty for our sins. His resurrection proves that His sacrifice was accepted, and now, instead of condemning us, He intercedes for us.

Right now, Jesus is at the right hand of the Father, advocating for you (Hebrews 7:25). When you stumble, He speaks on your behalf. When you feel weak, He strengthens you. When the enemy accuses, He defends. Because of Christ’s finished work, no one—not even yourself—can condemn you.

Bible Reading Plan:

• John 3:17 – Jesus did not come to condemn but to save. 
• Hebrews 7:25 – Christ always lives to make intercession for us. 
• 1 John 2:1-2 – Jesus is our advocate before the Father. 

Word of Encouragement:

You are not condemned—you are redeemed! Jesus stands as your advocate, ensuring that no charge or condemnation can separate you from God’s love. Walk in the confidence of His grace, knowing that He is always interceding for you.
