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

Intimacy with the Holy Spirit Diary

© sheillamooblogspot.ie God the Father decided to choose you as his people, and his Spirit has made you holy. [1  Peter 1:2] I used to ask myself,what do they mean when they say intimacy with Holy Spirit?You wouldin't understand until you've had an experience yourself.Once you've tasted it,there is no words enough to comprehend the glory.By the way,I've recently learnt that Holy means to be separated. In my own understanding it all tells me that I'm very special. The Holy Spirit is a person who wants to be one with you.He is the Spirit of truth.This truth is His unconditional love for your soul.It was very hard for me to believe that He lives inside of me  but one day everything changed.I let go of myself and at that moment He asked me to believe that He is there...there inside of me...He said that He values me more than anything:)This was all I needed to grasp.This is the assurance that we need to encounter.Ever since then,my life was never the same

Women of the Bible [Part 3]

Mary Magdeline  By Sheilla Mo As we learnt with Sarah,let us take notes from Marry as well. The Past ^ She was despised by others because she used to be a prostitute but Jesus looked beyond her mistakes. The latter ^ Marry was there for Jesus until the end.. Matthew 27:61 GNB Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there, facing the tomb. ^ She gave Jesus something that was so precious to her... I personally love perfumes and I'm pretty sure women in general have a thing for perfumes as well.This perfume that cost a whole years wages must have been really something to be recorded in the bible.Judas even criticised her thinking that it was wasted but Marry was only expressing how much she adored Jesus iregardless of what others thought of her actions. ^ Marry was the firs person Jesus saw after He resurrected... [John 20:11-18 GNB] Mary stood crying outside the tomb. While she was still crying, she bent over and looked in the tomb and saw t
