MARKED FOR GREATNESS
Ephesians 1:13-14 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession —to the praise of his glory.
The fact that you are born into a family does not automatically qualify you for an inheritance in that family. Some people are born into royalty but they will never get a taste of it, some are also born into wealthy families but they don't experience riches. This is the experience one is likely to have with an earthly family. We have Bible characters like Esau, Absalom, Ishmael, Reuben who despite their connections to greatness did not inherit much from their fathers. But it can never so when you are born again into the Kingdom of God. The very day you confessed Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Saviour, you were marked for greatness, for earthly dominion and eternal glory. Nothing can disqualify from this. The guarantee for this is the Holy Spirit in you. When you ever feel like you losing it, you are failing just do a self-check if the Holy Spirit ( the Spirit of Christ) is still at work, because if you still have the Holy Spirit in you there is a hope of glory. Here is the caveat, the Holy Spirit does not dwell with other filthy spirits, when sin begins to dominate in your life He becomes silent, there and then you begin to lose your rights in the Kingdom. It nearly happened to David the man after God's own heart but he cried out to God for mercy and restoration and in Psalms 51:11 Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. When you start feeling like an outcast in the family of God, do a self-check and see if you still have the Holy Spirit at work in you. Speak to God about it, He is your guarantee for greatness.
Prayer: Lord Jesus do not take your Holy Spirit from me, if you take it away am nothing. Holy Spirit I receive you in full dimensions work in me to possess all that in mine here on earth and prepare me for eternal glory in Jesus name Amen.
