Be A Sweet Perfume
Is your life a sweet perfume?
The knowledge of God is a sweet perfume (2 Corinthians 2:14). Our lives and preaching of the Word give out the fragrance of Jesus.
The non-believers find the gospel gloomy and dark, but the believers enjoy it because they understand its value. (2 Corinthians 2:15,16)
The gospel is foolishness to this world. Also, why many believers feel there's no point in sharing the gospel with others. The cross of Christ is not encouraging for non-believers. Yet, we are called to preach the cross of Christ.
When can you share the cross of Christ with non-believers? When you enjoy what you received because of the cross. The joy will not only be heard from your mouth but will be revealed in your lifestyle.
HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO GROW IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD?
It's a shame to not walk in the knowledge of God (1 Corinthians 15:34). It's not a shame to miss out on earthly blessings. Don't be deceived.
God says, my people perish because of a lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).
Dear young believer, desire to know Jesus. He is the only way, truth and life. Receive the joy from the Holy Spirit daily to tell others about Jesus. Let God enjoy you and your sweet offerings of praise and prayers.
Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
