Today's devotional reading for: Wednesday, May 19, 2021 A Much Needed Advocate My little children, I am writing these things to you, so that you do not sin. Burt if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous One. — 1 John 2:1 Satan is the accuser of the brethren.  Even as he appeared before God accusing Job, he accuses us of all manner of sins.  All our iniquities and all our transgressions are picked up by this malignant spirit and hurled against us in utter condemnation before God’s Throne. Who shall plead our case?  Where is the advocate for our defense?  Not only does Satan accuse us, but all about us are unbelievers who claim we do not live up to the ideals we profess. They say that there are hypocrites in the Church, and that each believer is also a sinner.  Our own sinfulness is used to vilify us.  Furthermore, at times our own conscience condemns as well. Who shall plead our case?  Thank God, there is One who is at the right hand of God, acting as our advocate. His blood ever intercedes on our behalf.  Jesus Christ is our sure defense against all these enemies: the world, the flesh, and the devil. Question to ponder: What comfort does it give you to know that Jesus is ever pleading your case before the Lord?
