I've begun praying these points of identity over myself each day. And then I try to meditate on that point throughout the day. It's really helping to strengthen my helmet of salvation.
Now that my Bible Study group has finished Priscilla
Shirer’s Armor of God study, I need to keep moving in the right direction. Continuing this series of blog posts taken
from the list Priscilla included in her 6th week of Bible study
regarding our identity and inheritance in Christ. I pray these reflections will open your eyes
to how much God loves you. Read them as
if you wrote them. Meditate on
them. God bless you.
I am the sweet fragrance of
Christ to God
2 Corinthians 2:15 tells me that to God, I am the pleasing
aroma of Christ. I don’t know about you,
but I stink, sometimes. I don’t always
behave well or say the right things or remain silent when I should. Sometimes I’m selfish and whiny and
pouty. Sometimes I rebel against what
God has asked me to do. But I am
His. I always come back to His throne
with an apology and a genuine desire to do His will. Why?
Because Christ died for me, I know and accept it and His blood covers me
so that’s what the Father sees when I approach Him. It’s nice to know that regardless of how
badly I think I mess things up, to my holy Father in heaven I always come out
smelling like the Rose of Sharon.
