The coveted pink slip! It is what every car owner strives to achieve. Very few people have one unless they have fully paid for their vehicle. It represents complete and final ownership.

There is another item of ownership that far exceeds a car or anything else. It is holy spirit.

This most precious gift of holy spirit is a permanent possession for every Christian. What confirms that we have received the holy spirit which gives us eternal life, being a son of God, having the hope of Christ return? Speaking in tongues is the one manifestation so designed for the believer to demonstrate the reality of holy spirit being within.

What is so magnificent about this gift of holy spirit? It is a seal or a pledge of the awesome spiritual benefits we use today and as well as things to be revealed in the future.

Ephesians 1:13 and 14: KJV

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,

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

II Corinthians 1:21 and 22: ESV

And it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us,

and who has also put his seal on us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

The gift of holy spirit is a seal, an earnest [down payment], that is our guarantee (pink slip) of belonging to God Almighty!

How do you know you have holy spirit in you? Speaking in tongues is the one manifestation designed to demonstrate the presence of holy spirit in you. When you speak in tongues you are showing your spiritual “pink slip” that you have complete ownership of the gift of holy spirit.

Remind yourself often of the eternal powerhouse reality that lives in you by showing the pink slip often by speaking in tongues much!

Agape,
