"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."
2 Corinthians 1 : 21-22
2 Corinthians 1 : 21-22
The royal queen or king put their seal on any bills they would like to enforce as laws, or as a way of claiming ownership over something in order to prevent forgery. God putting His seal on us means that not even Satan can claim ownership over us. We are God's and cannot cease to be His because of the seal. Now if we have doubt about our ownership, God gave us His Spirit in our hearts to guarantee His ownership.
So now, not only do we have God's sign on us, we have God within us! You can't get anymore owned by God than that! What should this tell us then? It should tell us that the God of the Universe, the God who can hold the whole world in His hand, the God who created ALL things...HAS CLAIMED US AS HIS. Now how special do you think you are? Here's an answer: more special than you think :)
