2 Corinthians 2
- Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.
We must understand that we carry a fragrance in us. A spiritual fragrance that is felt before God and man.
The fragrance that is felt before God the one mentioned in Psalm 141:2
This however is the fragrance that we spread here on earth since we received Christ. You must understand that just the same way you have a fragrance in the physical, you have a fragrance in the spiritual.
How sweet your fragrance is will determine your ability to draw near to God. And to draw people towards God on this earth. Imagine a person who walks past you in town with a sweet smelling perfume or collogne most of us will look back.
That is exactly what it is like in the spiritual. Your fragrance stands out. Every persin must work on how to make his/ Her fragrance not only stand out but also sweet in God’s prescence.
Your fragrance should ooze sweetness. We are living sacrifices. Just the same way people in the Old Testament pleased God with sweet inscence, you please him with your fragrance. Things that make you ooze sweet fragrance
- Abiding in his prescence through worship prayer etc
- Feeding your spirit with the word. It oozes a sweet fragrance
- Living according to God’s will.
- Putting the flesh unto subjection.
