1 | purfume, smell, aroma, ect in church | Ps 77:6 | Aixen7z4 | 104839 | ||
This writer is not aware of any record in the Bible of an aroma occurring during corporate prayer, or praise or worship. The closest to that is the record in Genesis 8 when Noah offered a sacrifice and God smelled a pleasing aroma. Of course the sacrifices offered under the Old Covenant we often described as yielding a sweet savor unto the LORD. But now it was you and your mother who were sensing that aroma. There is a natural explanation for this, a memory associated with a previous experience. You have beautiful memories of times when you were close to God. From time to time you may experience new ones that are similar. You recall the old ones. That's all. When an experience is stored in memory it is a total experience, including sights and sounds and, yes, smells. When you recall, either voluntarily or not, you are retrieving some or all of them. It would not be unusual for you and your mother to have stored memories of different odors when you had a particular experience together, probably in church. That is the most likely reason for this new experience. It reactivated an old memory. If you recalled carefully, as with professional help, you might arrive at the exact place and sights and sounds that accompanied those smells. It is a memory, I say. Nothing more mysterious. Focus on the spiritual content, not the smell, and praise the Lord again. |
