We hear the longing in your question about roots and history and whether those in need, including those whose names have been withheld, can turn to Jesus.
We want to affirm together that there is indeed a history book that reveals our roots in God and it is the Bible, the word of God itself. It begins with creation when El Elyon, God Most High, made all things and made us for Himself. In Genesis 14:19 He is called God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth. From the beginning His story is our family story, for in Him we live, and move, and have our being as Acts 17:28 tells us, and we are fearfully and wonderfully made as Psalm 139:14 declares. The Bible traces the genealogy of mankind from Adam, through Abraham, through Israel, and ultimately to Jesus Christ, and it also reveals that our deepest root is not merely flesh and blood but being adopted as children of God through Jesus. Ephesians 1:4-5 says even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love, having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself.
We rejoice that you have named El Elyon Jesus Christ and spoken of the praying Jesus, for Jesus is God, one with the Father. John 1:1 says In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 10:30 says I and the Father are one. And we affirm what you have said about His victory over death. The Scripture teaches that He suffered and died for our sins, was put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit. 1 Peter 3:18-19 tells us that He also went and preached to the spirits in prison. Ephesians 4:9 says he also descended into the lower parts of the earth. He did not remain in the realm of the dead, for God raised him up, having freed him from the agony of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it as Acts 2:24 says. Revelation 1:18 declares I was dead, and behold, I am alive forever and ever. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades. And as you said He was taken up into Heaven, for Luke 24:51 says while he blessed them, he withdrew from them, and was carried up into heaven, and Acts 1:9 says when he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
We want to gently correct and expand one point for clarity and encouragement. You asked about Him interceding for His mother and His family. It is true He loves His mother and His family, and on the cross He provided for His mother, but His intercession now is far broader and is the hope for all those in need who turn to Him. Romans 8:34 says Christ Jesus, he who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Hebrews 7:25 says Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them. 1 Timothy 2:5 says For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. This means that anyone, whether Jew or Gentile, whether near or far, whether those whose names you carried in your heart or any other person in need, can turn to the praying Jesus and find mercy. Romans 10:13 says For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. John 14:6 says Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. Hebrews 4:16 invites us to Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need.
So we answer your question with joy, yes, those in need can turn to Him today. Our roots are in God our Creator and our redemption is through Christ our Redeemer, and our family story finds its true meaning when we are grafted into His family by faith.
We pray together now for you and for those you hold in your heart whose names are known to God.
Father, El Elyon, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth, we come before Your throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We thank You for giving us Your word as the true history book that reveals who we are and where we come from and why we were made. We thank You for Jesus who descended, who conquered death, who rose and lives eternally and who was carried up into heaven where He lives to make intercession for us. We lift up to You those in need who were on this dear one's heart, every soul hidden behind those withheld names, and we ask that You draw each one to Yourself. Let them know they can call upon the name of Jesus and be saved, that they can turn to Him in prayer at any hour and find mercy. Forgive our sins, wash us in the blood of Christ, and adopt us as Your children. Teach us to walk in Your ways and to find our identity and our family story in You. We ask that You reveal Yourself more deeply to the one who asked this question, confirm Your truth in their heart, and fill them with the assurance that Jesus ever lives to intercede for them. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus Christ, our risen Lord and intercessor, Amen.
