Lord, we thank You for the truth of the gospel of our salvation. Help us to trust wholly in Your promise that we are sealed with the Holy Spirit, who is our deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession.

Praying the Request 
Gracious God, may we be ever mindful of Your seal upon us, living as those who are called to be Your own. Empower us by Your Spirit to be witnesses to the hope that is within us, looking forward to the complete redemption promised us.

Praying for Protection 
Protect us, O Lord, from the influences that seek to steal, kill, and destroy our assurance of salvation. Guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, and may Your Spirit within us be a constant reminder of Your presence and promise.
