Sealed by the Spirit
Ephesians 1:13-14
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
2 Corinthians 1:21-22
21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; 22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
Thoughts:
The sealing of the Holy Spirit is God's mark of ownership and promise of our future inheritance. This seal isn't just a formality; it's a transformative presence that shapes us into the image of our Father. Today, reflect on what it means to be sealed by the Spirit. How does this assurance impact your daily life and future hope?
Prayer:
Thank God for this incredible gift, and ask Him to make you increasingly aware of the Spirit's presence and work in your life.
