”who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.“
2 Corinthians 1:22 KJV
He knows we are His since He has also stamped His seal of love over our hearts and has given us the Holy Spirit like an engagement ring is given to a bride—a down payment of the blessings to come! God has sealed believers with the seal: of security, being kept secure in God’s love; of authentication that marks us as God’s very own; of certifying genuineness; of ownership; of approval; of righteousness; of a promise to be fulfilled. Jesus, our Bridegroom seals our hearts with a passionate fire that burns continually. We are born of the Spirit, sealed with the Spirit, indwelt by the Spirit, baptised in the Spirit, filled with the Spirit, made one with the Spirit, given gifts of the Spirit and ministries by the Spirit. He is a promise, a seal and a guarantee of our full inheritance. Thank You, Holy Spirit! Amen
