2 Corinthians 2:14-15

2 Corinthians 2:14-15

Did you know that back in the days of the Roman Empire fragrances were all the rage? They would celebrate their victories with huge parades and burn incense on the altars, which would fill the entire city with its sweet-scented aroma. Even those who could not be part of the celebration would smell the incense from afar and know their army had been victorious!

This is the very effect we should have on the world around us. Our lives should be burning the sweet smell of righteousness, holiness, love, and victory!

Brothers & Sisters, our fragrance should be so strong that people can smell it from afar and know that we are victorious in every circumstance through the atoning work God has already done! WHAT'S THAT SMELL?! Guide Makombo's Devotions
