You Are Branded As God’s Own!

‘and do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God (do not offend or vex or sadden Him), by whom you were sealed (marked, branded as God’s own, secured) for the day of redemption (of final deliverance through Christ from evil and the consequences of sin)’ (Eph 4:30 AMP).

We are born of God.  Jesus purchased us by His precious blood.  The Bible says in 1 Cor 6:20, ‘you were bought with a price (purchased with a preciousness and paid for, made His own). So then, honor God and bring glory to Him in your body’(AMP).  Now days, most people are going for branded stuffs from the make-ups, accessories, cloths and the shoes they wear.  They are expensive too.  World love and go after its own.  Be proud that you are branded as His own.

We are marked as a child of God and branded by the Holy Spirit.  1 John 3:1 says, ‘behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us because it did not know Him.’  I am writing here the ‘New Creation Realities’ written in 2 Cor 5:17, ‘therefore, if anyone is IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold ALL things have become new.’ 

See yourself from the perspective of God’s Word.  You are branded as His own.  Conduct yourself as you are and walk in the light of this Truth.  Never let anyone put you down.  He has valued you as His Own!  You are branded and made as HIS OWN.  God called this ‘new creation breed’ in 1 Peter 2: 9, ‘you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, (God’s) own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfection of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light’ (AMP).

Confess:  I am a God-kind breed.  I am sealed by His Spirit and branded as His own.  I am a royal priest, peculiar and wonder to my world.  I am His own branded property! In Jesus Name.  Amen.
