Report Article
The thickness of the hard covering over the heart, to the degree that it exists, is exactly proportionate to the delay in the length of time required between receiving a blessing or an answer to prayer or the fulfillment of a heart's desire and the acknowledgement of that blessing or answer or fulfillment in the giving of thanks or testimony with the attitude of gratitude. To take God and God's tender mercies and responsiveness habitually for granted is to walk like pagans in the uncircumcised hardness of our hearts. May we regularly allow the Holy Spirit through the precise pinpoint power of His word to cut away the callouses that tend to form daily over our hearts. (Matthew 13, v.14-16)
In ancient Israel the circumcision was done on the 8th day of life which, as medical science later learned, was the day the blood began to coagulate. The Holy Spirit knows just when to cut and how deeply in order to most safely produce and preserve the spiritual sensitivity He desires in us.
