We Are Sealed With The Holy Spirit

"Now He which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts." 2 Corinthians 1:21-22

We now have Christ permanently living within us; we are now one with Him, so we can’t help but to walk in His Spirit. We have been sealed by the very Spirit of our Father. We have been Anointed by God, and He can now do all things through us by the power of His Anointing that strengthens us! Our Father has established us with His Anointing. He has sealed us with His Spirit. He has called us. He has chosen us, He has justified us, He has glorified us, and what can we say to all of this? Our Father, Who is God is for us, who or what, can be against us!

“And grieve not the Holy Spirit, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” Ephesians 4:30

We are sealed by the Spirit of our Father until the day of our redemption. Well if we are sealed, that isn’t from the inside, that is from the outside. Think of a plastic baggie, the zip lock kind, that is sealed, think about Tupperware, that is sealed. Well we are sealed, so we can’t help but walk in the Spirit. Once again we see that it is our Father telling us to do something and again we see that it is God empowering us with Himself to do it. We can do all things through Christ that strengthens us! A-men!
