Main Point: Your spirit finds rest in the triumph of Christ.

I. A spirit not at rest (12–13)

II. A spirit brought to rest (14–17)

     A. Led in triumphal procession

     B. Spreading the fragrance of Christ

     C. Speaking in Christ

Conclusion:

Questions to consider: Do you know the circumstances in which you tend to have a restless spirit? At those times, are you trying to function in your own strength and power or does your Christ-conquered heart rest in him? Do those nearest you smell the fragrance of Christ when they are with you?
