Hebrews 5:7-8 "During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission . Although he was a son, he learned obedience...."
When you read Exodus 4:24-26 the bible says "At a lodging place on the way, the Lord met Moses, and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son's foreskin.....So the Lord let him alone..."
Moses was focused on arriving where God sent him, he was not concerned about the "how" part. We must arrive where God sent us through obedience. The how part of your success is very important to God. Obedience is better than sacrifice. It is not about accumulating wealth...but how you accumulate your wealth matters before God. It is not just about growing our churches, but how we grow our churches is very important.
Moses's wife arose without delay and circumsised her son to save the entire family. We must not delay. We must remove every excess, everything God says we must remove.
If you dont allow God to circumsise your heart, your enemy will circumsise you. Should your enemy circumsise you, you are as good as a dead man. In Genesis 34 you find the men of Shechem being circumsised by their enemies(sons of Jacob). While the men of Shechem were still in pain their enemies arose and slaughtered all of them.
When God wounds us He will heal us, but when the enemy wounds you he is going to finish you off. God must circumsise my heart today! Everything which is not of God in my life must be cut off. Amen......!!!
