El Perfume De Cristo En Nuestras Vidas
Contributed by Carlos Vazquez on Feb 19, 2025 (message contributor)
Introducción: "De lo Común a lo Extraordinario"
Imagina un campo de lavanda en la Provenza, Francia. Es hermoso, con un mar púrpura de flores ondeando con el viento. Sin embargo, si solo nos quedamos allí, las flores se marchitarán y perderán su esencia. Es necesario un proceso de transformación para que su fragancia sea capturada y convertida en un perfume valioso.
De la misma manera, nuestras vidas pueden parecer bellas por fuera, pero sin la intervención de Dios, nunca alcanzaremos nuestro verdadero propósito. Dios quiere transformarnos en un perfume que lleve su fragancia a todo el mundo.
Desarrollo: "El Proceso del Perfume y Nuestra Transformación Espiritual"
Cosecha (Separación del Mundo)
La lavanda debe ser recogida en el momento justo. Dios tiene su tiempo perfecto para llamarnos (Juan 15:19).
Destilación (Pruebas y Refinamiento)
Para extraer la esencia, la lavanda debe ser sometida a calor y presión. Las pruebas en nuestra vida nos purifican (Job 23:10).
Maduración (Tiempo de Espera en Dios)
El aceite extraído debe reposar antes de ser usado. Necesitamos tiempo en la presencia de Dios (Isaías 40:31).
Mezcla y Dilución (Llénate del Espíritu Santo)
Un perfume necesita alcohol para expandir su aroma. El Espíritu Santo nos llena y nos envía al mundo (Efesios 5:18).
Embotellado y Uso (Ser Testimonio para el Mundo)
Un perfume no sirve de nada si se queda en el frasco. Debemos ser el buen aroma de Cristo (Mateo 5:16).
Conclusión: "Somos el Perfume de Cristo"
Así como un perfumista experto selecciona los mejores ingredientes y los transforma en algo exquisito, Dios está obrando en nuestras vidas. Nos cosecha, nos refina, nos madura y nos llena con su Espíritu para que llevemos su fragancia al mundo.
¿Cuál es la fragancia que estás esparciendo?
El llamado hoy es a permitir que Dios nos haga su fragancia, para que, donde vayamos, otros puedan sentir su presencia en nosotros.
Aplicación Práctica:
Reflexiona sobre qué "etapa del perfume" estás viviendo.
Pide a Dios que te llene con su Espíritu.
Vive de manera que otros perciban el olor de Cristo en ti.
