“Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us.”
(Romans 8:34, NLT)
“Jesus is praying for us … Jesus has spoken and Satan has listened. The devil may land a punch or two. He may even win a few rounds, but he never wins the fight. Why? Because Jesus takes up for you … “He is always able to save those who come to God through him because he always lives, asking God to help them” (Hebrews 7:25) …
Jesus, at this very moment, is protecting you … Evil must pass through Christ before it can touch you.

I was thinking yesterday of the truth that Jesus intercedes to the Father on my behalf-that at the throne of God, my name is mentioned. What a thought!
Elizabeth, it is a most amazing thought for sure!
Amen to his protection always, and praises for his son going to the cross for us. Wonderful scripture inspiration to read this morning.
