2 Corinthians 2:15
King James Version
15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ,
in them that are saved,
and in them that perish:
A very strange, and yet wonderful thing has been happening to me lately.
For over a week now, I've been getting a whiff of some SWEET SCENT, unlike anything I have ever encountered before.
At first, the scent comes when I think of God.
But today, it all changed.
I had been studying some verses, on a theme the HOLY SPIRIT led me to, hoping to write an article about it.
When I got to this particular verse, the lovely scent came FULL force.
Psalm 119:63
King James Version
63 I am a companion of all them that fear thee,
and of them that keep thy precepts.
Thinking I must have been imagining it, I kept on.
Except every time I'd study a verse from Psalm 119, the scent would come again.
What to do?
I decided to focus on Psalm 119.
These are the verses that elicited that lovely, sweet scent from heaven:
Psalm 119:97
King James Version
97 O how love I thy law!
it is my meditation all the day.
Psalm 119:99-100
King James Version
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers:
for thy testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the ancients,
because I keep thy precepts.
Psalm 119:105
King James Version
105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
and a light unto my path.

Psalm 119:118-119
King James Version
118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes:
for their deceit is falsehood.
119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross:
therefore I love thy testimonies.
Psalm 119:127-130
King James Version
127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold;
yea, above fine gold.
128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right;
and I hate every false way.
129 Thy testimonies are wonderful:
therefore doth my soul keep them.
130 The entrance of thy words giveth light;
it giveth understanding unto the simple.
Psalm 119:133-135
King James Version
133 Order my steps in thy word:
and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134 Deliver me from the oppression of man:
so will I keep thy precepts.
135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant;
and teach me thy statutes.
Psalm 119:137
King James Version
137 Righteous art thou,
O Lord,
and upright are thy judgments.

King James Version
142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
and thy law is the truth.

O Lord,
quicken me according to thy judgment.

quicken me,
O Lord,
according to thy lovingkindness.
Psalm 119:163
King James Version
163 I hate and abhor lying:
but thy law do I love.
Psalm 119:165
King James Version
165 Great peace have they which love thy law:
and nothing shall offend them.
Psalm 119:175
King James Version
175 Let my soul live,
and it shall praise thee;
and let thy judgments help me.
Psalm 119:176
King James Version
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep;
seek thy servant;
for I do not forget thy commandments.
Of course, as I write the draft of this post, the sweet scent came again.
Most surprisingly, the scent stayed till I got back to finalize this post.
Since working with the Holy Spirit of God, I've been having many unusual surprises.
Won't you want to know the SPIRIT of GOD, too?
John 4:24
King James Version
24 God is a Spirit:
and they that worship him
must worship him
in spirit and in truth.
On the next post, come to know verses that testify to God's POWER over all things.
