Sealed with the Spirit
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.
Ephesians 4:30
30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Thoughts:
Being "sealed with the Holy Spirit" is a blessed concept. Today's scriptures further explore this idea. The seal of the Spirit is God's mark of ownership and His guarantee of our salvation. As you read and focus on these verses, consider what it means to be sealed by God. How does this truth impact your sense of security in Christ? Reflect on times when you've felt the Spirit's presence in your life. How can you be more aware of and responsive to the Holy Spirit's guidance today?
Prayer:
Stop today and thank God for the assurance His Spirit provides. Be simple and direct with the Lord in your prayers. Focusing primarily on the blessing of being sealed by the Holy Spirit.
