Ephesians 1:13-14
“And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation.  Having believed, you were marked in him 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.”



Reflection
We entered into God’s purpose and plan for us the moment that we believed all that Jesus did in his death and resurrection was done for us.  Then through that belief we have been sealed by the presence of the Holy Spirit and we have been guaranteed the inheritance of forgiveness and eternal life.  We belong to God.  We are God’s possession.  We have been purchased by God through the blood of Christ.  Consider this fact: You have been purchased by God through Jesus so you might share in God’s inheritance and that is God’s plan and purpose for each of us.
