Daily Devotional
You Can Be a Fragrance, Not an Odor.

June 5, 2019

BIBLE MEDITATION:

Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of His knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish. 2 Corinthians 2:14-15

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:

Do you know how incense is made? By cutting or breaking herbs, then crushing them into a fine powder. Then water is added to this powder to create a clay to form into sticks or cones. What is the purpose of incense? To burn and create a fragrant aroma.

When we understand that, being in Christ, we are going to triumph, and we realize in the spiritual realm, we are living with Christ in victory, we will be giving off a sweet, pervasive perfume of His glory.

ACTION POINT:

When we are praising God in the midst of trials, singing songs of glory in the midst of persecution, claiming His victory when a problem arises, then we are emitting a sweet aroma that is unmistakable to the nostrils of God. This is the sweet smell of victory!
