February 16: A Sweet Aroma

“For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing."

2 Corinthians 2:15

When the woman came to Jesus with an alabaster box and anointed His feet, the fragrance of the perfume filled the room. It was so strong that it probably lingered for days. Those who were present carried the scent on their clothes after they left the house.

When we are in the presence of God, His sweet aroma lingers on us – our actions, attitude, and speech.

Not only can other Christians sense His presence when they are with us, those who are not saved can as well. They know there is something different about us.

When was the last time someone commented, “There’s something different about you; what is it?” Good question. What is it? In what ways does your life carry the sweet fragrance of the Spirit of God to make a difference of eternal significance in everyone you encounter?

“His fragrance is unmistakable and unforgettable."

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing."

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing." : Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore. Song of Songs 8:7 TPT I Hear His Whisper . . . Trust my timing.   The days of completion are mine, not yours. I will complete my work in you in my perfect timing. Even as my ways are perfect, so my timing is perfect. For you have said, "It seems I am standing still and going nowhere." But I say over you, I am unfolding my glory upon you even as you wait on me. I will make it happen and will show you my perfection. What often feels like an endless season of waiting is often a time of preparation. You must believe in things you cannot see. You must trust that even when things seem silent, I am working on your behalf
