Aug 22, 2004 6:30 pm		Brandon Bracey's Word Of Devotion: Out Of The Box!
Brandon Bracey		Devotion Title: Out Of The Box! Ephesians 5:23 New Living Translation, " For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of his body, the church; he gave his life to be her Savior." Have you ever see seen a bird in a cage? When that cage is locked, the bird cannot get out. That bird becomes stuck in that cage. Whatever happens in that cage, the bird is exposed to it. Because the bird is stuck in that cage the bird is unable to fly. The bird cannot spread his wings. The bird cannot fly and therefore the bird is not free. However, when released from the cage, the bird can fly and soar. Just like the bird stuck in a cage, a lot of Christians are stuck in a box. That box is called, " man- centered religion". Ah Oh!!! I am going to cause some trouble today because I feel like preaching! See this box called, " man- centered religion" is filled with hypocrites, and status- gathers, and spritual powerheads. It's filled with traditionalism and hero worship. It's filled with human led programs without divine intervention... it's filled with some stuff that makes me sick! See I am so sick and tired of people who try to put God in a box! For some reason they think God is a jack- in- the - box that you pop out when you have a prayer request! Instead of worshiping God for who he is, they would rather claim that the pew seat on the second row is theirs. Instead of allowing people to come to church just like they are, they look at you funny when you do not have a suit on, even if you could not afford it! And oh Lord please do not start speaking in tongues!!! Lord please do not do that!! They may just call 911!!! Brandon Bracey can't stand "religion". I am into relationship and Christianity, but "religion" makes me want to vomit! I have something to say to those "religous" folks. You may be the mother of the church, but you are not the head of the church! You can keep all of your silly arguments about how to do communion and which denomination is best because I do not want to hear it! There will be no Baptists in heaven! There will be no Lutherans in heaven! There will be no Penecostals in heaven! There will be no Presbyterians in heaven! There will be no Charismatics in heaven! There will be no Episcopals in heaven! There will be no Methodist in Heaven! There will be no Moravians, Nazarenes, or whatever in heaven!!!! What the Father is going to want to know in heaven is what was your relationship with the Son! So if you are stuck on denominationals you have a surprise coming! There are over 280+ denominations and they are fighting like a bunch of hound dogs over a doggy biscuit! I have received the revelation into my spirit that Christ is the head of the church, not man. So I am keeping myself free! When Jesus died on that Cross over 2, 000 years ago we were set free! We are free from religious nuts! We are free from spiritual oppression! We are free from spiritual bondage! Christ has stepped out of the box and whom the son sets free is free indeed!!! C'mon and praise the Lord! Lord, Thank you for freedom! Lord Jesus you died on the cross 2, 000 years ago that I might be set free! Lord I am ready to spread my wings and fly! I refuse to get caught up in any religious mess! Lord I am free indeed in Jesus name Amen! You may have read this and would like the opportunity to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life. Please pray with me: Heavenly Father, I AM now ready to accept your son Jesus as Lord and Savior of my life. Jesus you paid the price for me at Calvary so I could be set free from the bondage of this world. Lord Jesus please come into my heart and I make you my Lord and Savior. Wash me clean from any wrongdoing of the past and give me a new beginning in Jesus name Amen. If you just prayed this prayer congratulations and welcome to the family of God! Your past has been erased, Jesus is your Lord and Savior, and you have a new beginning! Please email me at: Brandon_Bracey00@yahoo.com so I can assist you in your new beginning!
