5. JESUS PLEADS FOR THE BELIEVERS PRAYER TO BE HEARD 

Jesus loves us because we belong to the Father. Turn that Truth of God over. “My Father has chosen them, My Father loves them. Therefore,” says Jesus, “I love them and I lay down My life for them, and I will take My life, again, for them, and live throughout eternity for them. They are dear to Me because they are dear to My Father.”

Have you not often loved another person for the sake of a third one upon whom all your heart was set? There is an old proverb and I cannot help quoting it just now. It is, “Love me, love my dog.” It is as if the Lord Jesus so loved the Father that even such poor dogs as we are get loved by Him for His Father’s sake! To the eyes of Jesus we are radiant with beauty because God has loved us.

Now turn that thought round the other way, the Father loves us because we belong to Christ. At first, the Father’s love in election was Sovereign and self-contained, but now, today, since He has given us over to Christ, He takes a greater delight in us. “They are My Son’s sheep,” He says, “He bought them with His blood.” Better still—“That is My Son’s spouse,” He says. “That is My Son’s bride. I love her for His sake.”

There was that first love which came fresh from the Father’s heart, but now, through this one channel of love to Jesus, the Father pours a double flood of love on us for His dear Son’s sake. He sees the blood of Jesus sprinkled on us. He remembers the token and, for the sake of His beloved Son, He prizes us beyond all price! Jesus loves us because we belong to the Father—and the Father loves us because we belong to Jesus!
