JERAME: Jesus! And the direction that Jesus wants to go. Right? And so I love that because sometimes God will open these realms up for us so that we can be led of His spirit. And I remember that night, you know, I said all right I ditched the fire message and I preached on the joy of the Lord and you know what happened? More miracles than I had ever seen before! I’m telling you deliverances happened. People got saved. People, people were like set free from years of bondage! I mean what would have happened if I wouldn’t have followed the leading of the Lord, right? See that’s the key. Following the leading of the Lord.
And I remember, you know, I remember THE first time that I ever smelt a supernatural fragrance. it’s actually hilarious because I, I was, – I met this man by the name of Bob Jones, and you know he’s a prophetic guy. And anyway people warned me that he’s like a country prophet and that he could, he could say stuff at any time that was crazy. And so I met him and I was in this room and he starts praying for people. And he gets, he prays for this whole line of people and I thought I’m going to get at the end of the line because God responds for hunger, you know? And so he prays and he’s praying for these guys. And he gets to me and right when I’m thinking All right! Here it is! I’m going to get prayer for impartation. He goes, Sit down boy, the anointing’s gone. Thinking what? So I sit down and I’m like thinking Man, what did I do wrong? You know? And He goes and grabs some chicken and he’s eating chicken in this green room. And, and then I, I feel stupid so I’m like I’m leaving and I get up to like leave and when I go to grab the door he goes, Come here boy, the anointing’s back!
AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]
JERAME: So I’m thinking What? And so I go and I, I’m like all right. So I stand over there. And he puts his chicken down and wipes his, his leg and he, and he looks at me and he goes You smell that? And I said Smell what? You know and he goes Do you smell that? And I’m thinking Chicken? And he goes No, sniff! And so I go [Jerame sniffs]. And he goes You smell that? And I go No. And he goes C’mon you’re dull. So you smell again. So I, I said to God, like Lord please let me smell something!
AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]
JERAME: I mean I already got rejected once. And so I go [Jerame deeply sniffs]. And when I said God, PLEASE let me smell something it activated. How many of you know we got to ask? And when it, when it activated the most beautiful fragrance came. And it was like overwhelming. I mean I just got hit! And, and I said Wow, I do smell that! And Bob goes, Yup! You’re a sweet smelling stench in your Daddy’s nostril. He said that’s your intimacy coming before the Father. Your prayers and, and your intimacy are like a fragrance to Him in, in the throne. And, and then he said a prophecy over me. He said 2nd Corinthians 2: 14, he said: Now thanks be to God who always causes us to triumph through Christ and through us diffuses the fragrance of Christ. And I’m telling you that was my first encounter with the fragrance of God but I learned something that day. There’s a fragrance to Christ. So if a fragrance shows up in our house or in church or wherever how many of you know our attitude should not be Oh, yeah, we’ve smelt that before. Cause if there’s a fragrance to Jesus and He shows up, what if it’s Jesus testing our hearts to see if we really want Him and if we’re discerning enough to realize He’s in the room. See this puts a whole different understanding together when it comes to the supernatural. God does the supernatural with a purpose! So if a fragrance were to show up here right now what, what should the response be? That response should be on our faces before God because the King just walked in.
AUDIENCE: Amen.
