Ephesians 1:13-14

Spread the Good News….Jesus Christ is Lord!

We are sealed, wrapped up, ready to be delivered to our God through the power of the Holy Spirit who protects and keeps us until the time is ready. His fruit and His gifts should be evident in our lives. 

Galatians 5:22-23

²² But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

1 Corinthians 12:4-11

⁴ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. ⁵ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. ⁶ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. ⁷ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: ⁸ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, ⁹ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, ¹⁰ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. ¹¹ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

The seal or mark of ownership in believers’ lives is the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 1:13-14

¹³ In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, ¹⁴ who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory

¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 

John 1:17

²² who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. 

2 Corinthians 1:22

⁵ Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. 

2 Corinthians 5:5

²⁸ Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church ⁷of God which He purchased with His own blood. 

Acts 20:28

⁹ But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 

1 Peter 2:9
