2 Corinthians 2:14-17 But thank God! He has made us His captives and continues to lead us along in Christ’s triumphal procession. Now He uses us to spread the knowledge of Christ everywhere, like a sweet perfume. Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. But to those who are being saved, we are a live giving perfume. And who is adequate for such a task as this? You see, we are not like the many hucksters who preach for personal profit. We preach the word of God with sincerity and with Christ’s authority, knowing that God is watching us.
And so you, My children. You are to spread the Word. You are to represent Me to all that you meet. Some will rejoice in the message of hope and love you bring. Others will reject it and you – in essence rejecting Me. You have already experienced this many times. It will not only continue, but worsen. As the darkness spreads in your world, so the Light you bring will be rejected – fought against. You will be reviled, rejected, even persecuted. Your Nation has not experienced this in such a way as many of My children in other parts of your world have. You will no longer be spared. It is not just coming, it is already here for you. So, eyes on Me. Heart fixed on My Word. Put on your battle gear. Be ready at all times to defend the Truth. And do not be surprised as the opposition heats up. It is just beginning. But I am in the battle with you. I am beside you, within you. I go before you and bring up the rear behind you. I AM. And your enemy knows that. It just remains that you must abide in those Truths. Fear not. He knows you are Mine and as such, he has no power over you other than that which you grant him. So, no quarter. Stand firm. Advance with the Sword of the Spirit in hand. Truth always on your tongue. My voice always in your ears.
