Text for the Day -- Ephesians 1:11-14 ---------- In Christ we have also obtained an inheritance, having been destined according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to his counsel and will, so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, might live for the praise of his glory. In him you also, when you had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and had believed in him, were marked with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit; this is the pledge of our inheritance toward redemption as God's own people, to the praise of his glory.
Devotional ---------- God has made provision for our salvation in Christ Jesus. He has given us the Holy Spirit as a seal or pledge of our receiving our full and final salvation. We are called into this fellowship with God and have been appointed to live to the praise of his glory. We do show forth God's glory when we live from grace and show forth that grace to the world.
Prayer ----------------- Thank you, God, for calling me into this life with you in Christ. Amen
