Living Outside The Container

Friday, March 20, 2020

Luke gives the account of Messiah basically being kicked out of His own synagogue. So what happened to that synagogue? They went on with their services, rituals, routines, and their social lives. But Messiah moved on outside the synagogue; the healing, the good news, the release of the captors went on, freedom to the prisoners, sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, and all the miracles that His own synagogue couldn't contain. His own religion could not contain Him, and neither can ours. Even when the religion is in His name today as Christianity, He's bigger than that. If you want miracles, blessings, and His presence, then you have to step outside of your routine, your rut, and even the rituals in your life. Because the walls of His religion couldn't contain Him. He had to go outside for the miracles to keep going. You need to step outside the narrow walls and walk with the King in the excitement of the new adventure of Him. For the blessings He has for you are so big, they cannot be contained inside.
