It's a Sweet Smell

Jesse Birkey's picture

Sometimes I think it can be hard to understand or recognize the glorious life we carry with us when we have given our hearts to Jesus.  Sometimes days just seem so dark and we can barely lift our heads.  But when we are pursuing His heart I think it’s difficult to keep the kind of life Jesus ignites us with inside.  Maybe impossible. 

 

I was in an office supply store one day when I happened to look at the woman beside me in line.  She was pleasant looking enough but that’s not what grabbed my attention.  What grabbed my attention was what looked like little wispy trails of smoke rising from her.

 

But it wasn’t smoke.  The woman wasn’t on fire.  It didn’t look like smoke I just don’t really know how else to describe it.  There were three curly fingers of the substance just slowly floating up from her.  I was aware that what I was seeing was in the Spirit and that the Lord was allowing me to see something important. 

 

So I asked the Lord what I was seeing and He began to speak to me about the sweet fragrance she was to him.  What I was seeing was her sweet smell rising to Him as her heart had been captivated by Jesus.

 

But I wanted to know where the fragrance was originating.  Was it coming straight from her heart?  So I asked to Lord where the aroma was coming from and He directed me to her feet.  As the woman began to move forward I saw sweet smelling flowers and grass bursting out of the floor where her feet had just been.  The love of God in her could not be contained and was bringing life everywhere she went. 

 

The love of God is alive and active in us.  What a beautiful picture of that reality.

Fulfill Your Financial Destiny Digital Videos

by Mark and Patti Virkler | 22 video Sessions

Newly recorded for 2023! Though the economic system (mammon) of this world is under a curse, we have received instructions for how to move out from that dominion and into the blessing of the Kingdom of God. God’s promises to His children have not changed with the whims of government or Wall Street, nor have His directions for how to walk in those promises. We can “choose not to participate” in the economic recession that is around us if we instead choose to obey the logos and rhema of the Lord and enjoy the blessings that result.

This is my story of how my cardiac event was resolved by combining the best in medical care, Christian spirituality, and nutrition. 

I was NOT supposed to have a cardiac event. I ate a healthy diet, exercised several times a week, consumed lots of great nutrition and sought to live destressed by abiding in Christ. This story contains the lessons I learned in the months of healing after having emergency surgery which involved five heart bypasses.

How Do YOU Know? Digital Videos

by Mark Virkler | 12 MP4 Sessions

How do you know? What is the process you use to discover truth? I did not ask that question during the first 25 years of my life. I used eleven different methods for discovering truth including: if my parents said so, then it was so. If my teacher said it was so, then it was so. If my pastor said it was so, then it was so. If my theology said it was so, then it was so. I have discarded them all and adopted a twelfth method, which is in harmony with what the Bible teaches. We teach you this method in this series.

How to Speak in Tongues Video Download

How to Speak in Tongues Video Download

Speaking in tongues involves a miracle wherein you yield your vocal cords to the flow of the Holy Spirit, trusting that God is forming the syllables you speak into a language. It may be a language of men or of angels (1 Cor. 13:1). You choose to speak (Acts 2:4) but you choose not to form the syllables consciously, and instead let the Spirit give the utterance (Acts:2:4). The goal of this short teaching is to help people understand the part they need to play and the part the Holy Spirit plays when it comes to the miracle of speaking in tongues.

How to Walk by the Spirit Video Download

by Mark Virkler | 12 Sessions

Are you like many western Christians who have been taught little about how to sense their spirits? Do you have trouble even defining what spirit sensations feel like within you, much less recognizing them? This training was birthed from Mark’s passion to live out of his spirit, and thus release the anointing of God. The problem he faced was lack of clear biblical definition as to what his spirit felt like. So Mark looked up every verse in the Bible on heart and spirit.
