I had a vision this morning. I was seeing a person who struggles with fear of rejection and that spirit was radiating off of them like a scent. That scent went out all around them and repelled others…in essence causing the very thing they feared the most. Rejection.
I began talking to God about this and He showed me that’s what happens with every spirit we carry. Fear. Jealousy. Victimhood. Anxiety. Betrayal. The list could go on and on…
Then I saw in the same way that the demonic spirits people carry repel others away…and self-sabotage…the Godly spirits we carry draw others near and multiply.
We attract what is within us.
That means it’s really important to carry the right scent.
This vision was so clear and intense that I’m convinced that now is the time to press into this concept. If we emit the scent of constant defeat, then how can we expect victory. If we emit the scent of being looked over, then how can we expect to be chosen?
This just goes on and on.
Today, I encourage you to ask God to reveal your scent to you. Lay down your pride and receive the truth. If you see a bad scent, then ask God to wash it off of you and replace it with His fragrance.
I don’t know about you, but I am determined to carry the scent of heaven!
We can choose to be showered in the fragrance of heaven. We can carry the aroma of heaven and allow that to draw others to the presence of God! Isn’t that amazing?!
Like a shower, we can step into His presence. We can invite Him to come. He is always so near. Nearer than our breath. Nearer than the blood in our veins.
Our Maker. Our Father.
God, let us all be covered in the scent of heaven!! Come and fill us to overflowing and let our lives pour goodness onto everyone around us. You are so faithful. I adore You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
But thanks be to God, Who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of Him everywhere. For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are being saved and those who are perishing. To the One we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. and who is equal to such a task? Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity as those sent from God. 2 Corinthians 2:14-17
