Why did Josef and Mary go outside to bear their Child? Because there was no room at the inn? Yes. But more than that. Even if there was room at the inn, there would still be no room at the inn. The Lord's presence came into this world not in the inn but in the out, the outside.... The only place that could contain Him... Without walls, there's no containing. God is so big; only a room with no walls can contain Him. Nothing can contain Him, not the highest heaven, much less our doctrines, our religiousness, our ministries, our thoughts, our music, our services. God's presence came in the open. The miracle of God cannot be contained, but only comes in the open. You want a miracle? The miracle of God's presence to come new and fresh into your life? Then you must find it in the open. For in the open it comes: in an open mind, an open heart, and an open life. Open up your whole life today. Start breaking down the walls. Enter the room of the open. The uncontainable can only be contained in a room with no walls.
From Message #584 - No Room at the Inn
Go outside today - and take some time with God, meditate on His vastness, greatness, the great expanse of His love.
Scripture: Philippians 1:6
