Heavy Revy

08.23.16 – Tuesday 4am

Today the Lord gave confirmation of certain events in my life. Tomorrow I’m having surgery for a hernia on the left side of my testes. So I used some Nair to chemically remove the hair on my genitals Sunday afternoon. The Revelation of the Lord started this morning as I looked in the mirror at my naked body. This looked so funny. My genitals looked like a chicken with all his feathers plucked off.

Then I remembered the story Ravi Zacharias shared on TV and it went something like this: Stalin was asked by a reporter why he was so cruel toward his own countrymen. He sent over 12 million people to their deaths in the concentration camps of Siberia. Stalin asked a waiter to bring him a live chicken; then Stalin proceeded to pluck the chicken in front of the reporter. Now the chicken was too embarrassed and hid under the table. Then Stalin took a piece of bread and started to feed the chicken. The chicken now followed Stalin wherever he went.

God in His divine mercy brought this illustration back to my mind to remind me of His covenant with Abraham. I’ve been giddy ever since Sunday about how good it felt to see and feel my genitals – I couldn’t express how good it feels! I am not ashamed to write this story – I feel like Adam and Eve, Naked and unashamed. My scrotum has been shrunk and looks like a peach pit. I can squeeze my sac – there are no testes in there, I have no idea where they go! My penis has shrunk and I am so glad it has! God had dealt a death blow to lust by lowering my libido.  

You might be asking what does this have to do with Abraham. Well, [ The Covenant of Circumcision ]

Genesis 17:1 & 11 (NIV)

¹ When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless.

¹¹ You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and you.

(TLB)

¹¹ the foreskin of your penis shall be cut off. This will be the proof that you and your descendants accept this covenant.

God showed me this morning how happy Abraham and his descendants were to be circumcised! No wonder they fought so hard with Paul over demanding new believers in Christ to be circumcised. The Bible says,

Psalm 51:17 (NIV)

My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.

What Is An Unbroken Horse? From Jen Davis:

A horse that is labeled unbroken or not broke has not been ridden before and is not considered to be ride-able. These horses are often either too young to break or horses that no one ever got around to training. An adult horse that is not broke has relatively little value and is considered undesirable by most horse owners. An unbroken horse is never a good horse for a beginner or novice rider.

The term "broken" refers to a horse that is considered safe to ride and has all his basic manners. A broke horse should be fairly well trained and responsive to the rider.

This is a horse that a rider with some experience should be able to get on and ride relatively easily and safely, depending on the horse's temperament and personality. Breaking a horse is the practice of training him to be ridden. This process is also referred to as saddle breaking. It involves teaching the young horse to accept a saddle, a bridle and the weight of the rider on his back. It also involves teaching a young horse how to to steer, stop and respond to cues on command when they are given using the reins, leg and seat. http://animals.mom.me/unbroken-horse-2492.html

Do you feel like you are not broken by the Lord and that you have “relatively little value and are considered undesirable?” If you have never experienced the joy of having you life broken by the Lord, now is the perfect time to cry out to him. “Help me Jesus, I surrender my life to you completely!”
