Based on the Hadith, if one uses the intercession of their good deeds, does this result in the good deed getting “used-up”? Or do we still get the due reward for the good deed in the Hereafter?

Answer
One may make his good deeds as intercession many times.
It does not mean that if a person used his good deeds as intercession or as a means of trying to fulfil some worldly need, then it gets 'used up' and the good deeds no more stands in credit for him. He will definitely be rewarded for that good deed in the hereafter, in fact, he may even use the intercession of those very same good deeds for several other worldly needs as well.
