God speaks today Sunday | September 8, 2024

For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water. (Jeremiah 2:13)
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (John 7:38)

Full life - Sealed with the Spirit

God has sealed us with his Spirit, guaranteeing our inheritance in Christ. We often focus on what we lack instead of realizing we are already complete in Christ. The spiritual seal speaks of our belonging to Christ and our inheritance. It is also a symbol of legitimacy and authority. As children of God, we must show the seal of God in our daily lives and be transparent in our spirituality to impact others. We are sealed by God with his Spirit, a reason for joy and commitment, and a principle of gratitude for who we are in Christ. Read more...
