默想：
“你们既听见真理的道，就是那叫你们得救的福音，也信了基督，既然信他，就受了所应许的圣灵为印记。”（弗1：13）
静思：
圣经说“你有圣灵的印记”，这是什么意思？
首先，“印记”是真实性的标记。如果圣灵不在你里面，那你就是“冒牌货”。约翰一书3：24说：“遵守 神命令的，就住在 神里面， 神也住在他里面。我们所以知道 神住在我们里面，是因他所赐给我们的圣灵。”
其次，“印记”是“所有权”的标记。你是属于神的。罗马书8：9说：“人若没有基督的灵，就不是属基督的。”
再者，“印记”是“安全”的标记。以斯帖（王后）告诉我们“王的印”意味着什么，她在帖8：8说道：“现在你们可以随意奉王的名写谕旨给犹大人，用王的戒指盖印，因为奉王名所写、用王戒指盖印的谕旨，人都不能废除。”
“圣灵的印记”不受人的“左右”。
行动：
我得救是因为神以圣灵“印”我。你得救，是因为神以圣灵“印”你。

BIBLE MEDITATION:
In Whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the Word of Truth, the gospel of your salvation: in Whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise. Ephesians 1:13
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
What does the Bible mean when it says you are “sealed with the Holy Spirit”?
First, the seal is a mark of authenticity. If the Holy Spirit is not in you, then you are a fake. First John 3:24 says, “And he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in Him, and He in him. And hereby we know that He abideth in us, by the Spirit which He hath given us.”
Second, the seal is a mark of ownership. You are His. Romans 8:9 says, “If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.”
Third, the seal is a mark of security. Queen Esther tells us what a king’s seal is like when she describes it in Esther 8:8— “Write ye also for the Jews, as it liketh you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring: for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.”
The seal of the Holy Spirit is a seal “no man can reverse.”
ACTION POINT:
The way I am “kept saved” is because God sealed me. The way you are kept saved, is because God has sealed you.
