Good day people of God. I believe you all are enjoying the day, its a beautiful day the Lord has made and we continue to rejoice and be glad in it.
Our Bible reading for today is from Deuteronomy 10:1-end and our memory verse is from Deuteronomy 10:16 "So circumcise the foreskin of your hearts, be no longer stubborn and hardened."
The message today is a combination of science and spirituality and i know a lot of people will ask me how? One thing that we must understand is that the spiritual controls the physical. In our reading of Deuteronomy 10, Moses continued with reminding the children of Israel of their misconduct and reiterating the fact that their salvation lies in their obedience to the commandment of God. The interesting part of Moses's instruction to the Israelites is in Deuteronomy 10:16, 'Circumcise the foreskin of your heart. To understand the magnitude of the instruction in this verse we need to clearly define these two key words; foreskin and circumcise.
What is foreskin? It is a fold of skin that covers a particular part of the body while circumcision is a surgical procedure that removes part of or all the foreskin. Thus circumcision of the heart implies removing everything that poses as a foreskin to the heart. The things that poses as foreskin to the heart could be stubbornness, human logic, envy, immorality etc. The word of God is saying that for one to occupy and enjoy the good of the promised then the circumcision of the heart must take place. This circumcision can only effectively take place with the help of the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit that will through the word of God teach you the right attitude, the right approach, the right utterance, the right feeling, the right prayer to pray and believe you me, when you learn and apply these teachings of the Holy Spirit you will discover the difference and the feeling is always great.
Today, i have a doctor who is a specialist in heart circumcision, he is non other than the Holy Spirit of God. In life, we are faced with different situations and because God gave man the power to choose between good and bad, we tend to use the human understanding to analyze issues, sometimes we get it right other times we get it wrong but there is one person who can never be wrong, He is the one who sees the end from the beginning and anyone that trust in Him will never perish. The only sure way to trust God is by circumcising the foreskin of our heart, removing those things that hinder us from hearing from God, those things that hinder us from seeing things thru the eyes of God those things that challenge our obedience to the command of God. For us to occupy our promised land and enjoy it God must come first in everything we do.
Sadly, it took me two days plus to understand and communicate this message. I therefore ask you my lovely readers to always put me in your prayers.
Till i come your way again, remain blessed.
