Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I’m Yours

Ephesians 1:7-14

Signed

• Are you signed with Christ?
• Does He have ownership of you?
• His signature is written in red.  Vs. 7
• He paid for us in full with His own shed blood.  Rom. 5:8
• We have an inheritance.  Vs. 11
• Since we have His signature, we become heirs to Him.  2 Cor. 6:18

Sealed Vs. 13

• A seal was an official mark of identification placed on a letter, contract, or document.
• When we speak of being sealed, what does that mean to us?
• Ownership.  I Cor. 6:19-20
• Security.  John 10:27-30
• Unchangeable.  John 6:37-39

Delivered Vs. 14

• We are delivered out of fear.  Lk. 1:74
• Delivered from continued sin.  Rom. 7:24-25

I’m yours.  Rom. 12:1-2

• When you get married you say vows to God and to witnesses.  At the end you say unto death do us part.
• By saying “I’m yours” you are freely and totally giving yourself to that person.

This is the kind of commitment we need to have to the Lord.
