The Word of God is to help us in our destiny for we were created for an eternal destiny.
Through The Word of God that becomes living to us as we grow in Him. His presence makes us think differently and act differently and it even changes our physical appearance.
Gods’ glory transforms us from the inside out.
When our hearts are yielded to Our Lord and Our Friend, we release the fragrance of heaven effortlessly.
2 Corinthians 2 verses 14 and 15: V14: “But thanks be to God, Who always puts us on display in Christ, and spreads through us in every place the scent of knowing Him”.
V15: “For in God we are the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing”.
The image here is that of the ‘Roman Triumph’ their version of a modern ‘ticker tape parade’.
The victorious general’s sons would walk behind their father chariot, sharing in his victory, and that is where believers are today— following in Christ triumph.
We do not fight for victory; we fight from victory.
There is no reason for us to live our lives slumped over in defeat. We have been equipped to beat any foes of darkness that would dare assault us! The powers of darkness were defeated at the Cross and need to be reminded of that defeat.
We should walk boldly and confidently In Him, with our shoulders thrown back and our heads lifted high, because we are dressed in the whole armor of God.
Let our Faith in Action come from our growing In Him, so our faith and our actions be released in heavenly effortlessly.
Let our Faith in Action release the fragrance of Our Lord and Our Friends’ presence in our lives.
For we are nothing without Him and through Him all things are possible.
God Bless.
