What's That Smell ??? It's Victory !

          "For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?" Isaiah 43:19


I have this certain fragrance that I wear. I've been wearing it just about everyday, since last summer. Apparently, NO ONE has noticed it until a couple weeks ago. Seriously. My family, residents at my job and church members have all  been complimenting me on how nice I smell. People whom I don't even know will sniff around until they realize that I am what they are smelling: TRUE STORY. Even my husband sat next to me and said "You smell good, bay." There was even a day when I felt "unsure" of myself but again, I was complimented on my aroma.


I placed these incidents in the back of my mind until God spoke one morning. He says He has made me a new women, even down to my scent. He dwells within me so it is He that people are picking up on. They are complimenting Christ within me! 

As we grow in Him, He grows in us. This growth alerts the senses of those around us to see Who He is within us. People are catching "wind" of Him! And the time(s) we feel "unsure" are just that, feelings. No matter how we feel, He dwells within us! We are God's chosen vessels! You see, Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. 2Corinthians 2:15


This aroma is being released not only in the natural but in the spirit realm as well. The angels are rejoicing while demons are trembling. This Scent is sending out a signal to God's armies to keep us covered  meanwhile reminding Satan that his so called reign is done; finished; OVER. This heavenly aroma will only become stronger as our relationship deepens with Him; reading and having fellowship with the Father. . . you will be like a pleasing sacrifice to me. And I will display my holiness through you as all the nations watch. Ezekiel 20:41



The deeper we grow, the more others will notice. Christ within us will become unconfined and unlimited. The flesh will die and therefore have no further authority. The Word of God will float around us in a beautiful cloud . People will begin to "sniff" us out for a Word and guidance. The enemy will is in fear us at first sight because he sees Christ when he sees us. He will smell us coming and flee in the name of Jesus!
