Give The Great Physician Permission

A few weeks ago I fell and broke my hip and was warned that if I didn’t have surgery as soon as possible I would never walk again. As I was being wheeled into surgery to have the hip replacement I remember Dr. Darren Friedman taking the time to put his initials on the hip he was going to replace. He would only be putting a new hip on the leg with his name.

The Lord used this as a window to my soul.

Likewise The Great Physician also writes His Name on the foreheads of those that He will be working on as we go down to the Potter’s house and place ourselves on the wheel of transformation. This is where He will remove our heart of stone and give us a heart of flesh.

Just as I signed a paper to give the doctor permission we must also voluntarily give the Lord permission to perform surgery on our hearts. He will only work on those hearts with His Name engraved.

Revelation 14:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

Jeremiah 18:3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.

Ezekiel 36:26 6 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh. 

CHALLENGE: Are you broken today? Give the Great Physician permission to perform the surgery and He will give you a new heart that will enable you to walk a new way.
