Devotion 1/15, Thank you Jesus
You were marked in [Christ] with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession — to the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 1:13-14
This is our guarantee from God that we can never lose our salvation!
Many false teachers today will teach that salvation can be lost, but we have to stick with what God’s Word says, not mankind. No one can remove the mark of God, we are His eternally and He always keeps His word!
When we believe in Christ, and by doing so place our faith and trust in Him as our Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit of God comes to dwell in us. This is the mark of God Almighty on us, it is our guarantee from God that we are joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17). We are now God’s possession, we belong to Him through our faith in the blood of Christ, no more do we belong to satan and this world, but we have been transformed (2 Corinthians 3:18) to God’s child and a citizen of heaven (Philippians 3:20).
Precious Lord Jesus, thank You for coming to this earth and shedding Your blood for the forgiveness of my sins. Thank You for making me eternally God’s child and a joint-heir with You! I am blessed and honored to be Your follower and pray that You help me to always be an accurate reflection of You to all I meet each day. Amen.
