Smell like Christ!

[2 Corinthians 2:14-17 CEB]

But thank God, who is always leading us around through Christ as if we were in a parade. He releases the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere through us. We smell like the aroma of Christ’s offering to God, both to those who are being saved and to those who are on the road to destruction. We smell like a contagious dead person to those who are dying, but we smell like the fountain of life to those who are being saved. Who is qualified for this kind of ministry? We aren’t like so many people who hustle the word of God to make a profit. We are speaking through Christ in the presence of God, as those who are sincere and as those who are sent from God.

This is such a beautiful scripture indeed!Of all the many designer fragrances ,there is one that stands out called 'ChristLike fragrance'.It smells so good to the chosen ones.This fragrance means walking in the knowledge of Christ as your personal redeemer.God says that His people perish because of lack of knowledge.If you are a Christian and you don't read your Bible or atleast have an understanding of the basic things we ought to do to live a godly life,check your pulse my dear!I often question some teachings where they say we don't have to know everything in the Bible.My faith tells me that The Bible is a treasure that has so many hidden victories for me to find.I have to search it as if my life depended on it.If God said in His own Words;meditate on this book of instructions day and night then you will be successful in everything that you do...who are we to add or subtract from the Word of God?Then again its not any of our business as we let God be the judge.The Bible further reveals that we should cry out for insight and understanding to gain wisdom.Jesus is this wisdom.Having the fear of Him is the beginnig of your spiritual intelligence.This 'ChristLike fragrance' is the wisdom of understanding the Word of God.Is it a big deal to God that you know how to bring to pass His promises that you find in His word.
If you are wearing such divine knowledge,you smell just like Christ!You have the love of God in your heart and the enemy has no say in your life.Fear has fleed away from you because wherever light abides,darkness cannot stay.Chrisian love expels all fear and confusion.When people mistreat you,you repay them by doing good.Glory be to God!As a child of God,the atmosphere changes wherever you go because you carry the divine power that lives inside of you. You can't contain it but only share the love!This marvelous smells is the glory of God.Greater is He that is inside of you than he that is in the world.Meditate on Hosea 4:16.You have to know your maker.Having said all this,rather on the contrary,there are those in the dark.The devil has blinded them with all his deceitfull lies to be haters of God.They live in sin and I tell you they all know that God exist but they choose to live in ignorance.This is why the opening scripture tells us that this fragrance is also persived differently by those who are perishing.They are consumed by frustrations of this world so fear controls their lives!What is so beautifull smells like a contageous dead person because they lack the fear of God!Until they find a living church to deliver them from the kingdom of darkness,their lives will remain stagnent.Where does faith come from?Faith comes from hearing the word of God.It is impossible to please God without faith.If they can only open their hearts to hearing and obeying the word of God('ChristLike fragrance'),their lives will not only transform through deliverance but they will rule in the Kingdom of light!You who are chosen,keep smelling like Christ hence always be a step ahead of the devil by meditating and practising the word of God!


God Sized Declarations!

I am a chosen priesthood and a child of the most high.Jesus Christ is the Son of God.By faith I am saved.I boldly confess that I have been set free by the blood of Jesus Christ.He was rejected so I could be accepted by God.I do not have the spirit of fear in my heart.I have the spirit of love,power and a sound mind.I shall serve God for all eternity.My soul and spirit shall be seen blameless until the coming day of our Saviour.I will find a living church to hear the word of God and practice it!I smell like Christ.Jesus was God in his fullness on earth.He shall use me in his fullness for his honour and glory.I decree and declare in Jesus mighty name!Amen!




As I Meditate Further...
Hosea 4:6,John 14:27 Matt. 13:15-17; Mark 7:21-23; Eph. 4:20-24.

Jesus's greatest Testimony

Image
When Christ died, he died for sin once and for all. But now he is alive, and he lives only for God. There has and will never  be a god or any leader of somewhat denomination that will deafeat death.Some have died but are being worshiped...seriously! His greatest testimony is that He has defeated death for us all and He is alive! Whereas our greatest testimony should be to die for Him every single day. Romans 6:1-14 What should we say? Should we keep on sinning, so that God's gift of undeserved grace will show up even better? No, we should not! If we are dead to sin, how can we go on sinning? Don't you know that all who share in Christ Jesus by being baptized also share in his death?  When we were baptized, we died and were buried with Christ. We were baptized, so we would live a new life, as Christ was raised to life by the glory of God the Father.  If we shared in Jesus' death by being baptized, we will be raised to life with him. We know that the persons we

My Journal Notes;The main thing we do on the Alter...

©  sheillamooblogspot .ie PS As I mentioned in my previous post,I sometimes blog about what I learn from our meetings and this is the message that I received from watching a video of a special meeting that we watched at the Love Therapy.Here we go; Q What is the most important thing that we do in the church? A It is not the prayers but to put into practice the teachings that we receive from the Alter.  Q What is the secret to a successful marriage? A The cross. The vertical line represents your relationship with God and the horizontal one symbolises your relationship with your spouse. As much as we know the trinity of the Father,the Son and the Holy Spirit, there is also a trinity of God,yourself and your spouse.If God is the pillar of your relationship,you will have peace.What is required is for a wife to submit to her husband.She has to do everything for him as if he were The Lord Jesus Christ.As Jesus is the head of the church,the husband is the head of the family too.

10 confessions of who I am in Christ

Image
By Sheilla Mo The revelation of the scriptures tells us that ten is a number of perfection. Dare to declare the promises of God in your life by determining them with authority that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has given you. People put us down at times but you don’t have to accept how they see you. You could be your worst enemy as well, who knows? You have to realize that God formed you with his own hands and he accepts you just the way you are and if only you had the slightest clue of how much he adores you! Of course we are not perfect and yes they will always be a need to improve some bits so why bit yourself up? Learn to confess your victory at the start of each day. It will not only help you have a positive mind but with your perseverance and faithfulness to God, you will see significant changes in your inner being. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength as I live life of superior quality and abundance. [Philippians 4:13, John 10:10] I am blessed a
