I Chronicles 19:1-21:30, Romans 2:25-3:8, Psalm 11:1-7, Proverbs 19:10-12

 

“God was very displeased with the census, and He punished Israel for it. Then David said to God, ‘Please forgive my guilt for doing this foolish thing.’” I Chronicles 21:7-8

 

Okay, a little background. Earlier in the chapter we see David being influenced by the enemy of our souls, Satan, to perform a census or a count of the people. His lead commander tried to talk him out of it, but David pressed on, and the count was taken.

 

So, what’s the problem? Well, in chapter 20 we’re told about some very successful campaigns that were won, yet here David is doing a headcount on his warriors. It seems simple, but even commander Joab recognized it as a slight on God. Like God didn’t just provide all these solid wins, you know.

 

See, God wants us to recognize Him as our source and our protector. He wants to relieve the pressure we feel of doing it on our own. While He places people and resources in our path, it is ultimately our relationship with Him that produces the victory we’re looking for. David didn’t have to worry about the mule, he just needed to load the wagon. The mule, or God, is reliable, He’s there and ready to roll. If you’re overwhelmed or tempted to rely on help outside of God, resist the enemy’s chatter, settle your spirit, center your thoughts on the Lord and trust that He is faithful. He’ll send the warriors or the resources as you need it because He’s an on-time God. Hey, shout somebody!

 

PRAYER: Father, forgive me for relying on myself. I’m going to do my level best to do my part and trust You to do Yours. Remind me frequently that my peace, joy, and success stem from my connection to You, I don’t have to grasp. Help my people to know You and surrender to the draw of Holy Spirit. Save us, forgive us, keep us right, in Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Pastor Ricky and Jeannie Sinclair

From Ricky’s book, Miracle-at-Large, Ricky became an evangelist spreading the word of God through his testimony. He was a fire. He would go in, light it up and encourage people in the places he shared his testimony. When you’re an evangelist, you breeze in and breeze out, and you don’t have to worry about hurting anyone. But that was the start of the ministry. His evangelism was birthed from the book that came out, which gave him a platform. People started following us and we gave them resources and suggested churches to get plugged into. However, we developed a following of people that would not go anywhere else but honestly, it was not in our heart to start a physical church.

With us not wanting to turn people away, we started meeting together as a prayer group and started having a little teaching within the prayer group. But then, we were bursting out of our living room. Our house could squeeze 30 to 60 people in it butt here was not much you can do in it anymore with people wall-to-wall. We had John Mayers and his wife leading worship through singing and playing a guitar. We had all the elements for church, which led to people pressing us to start a church and they wouldn’t go anywhere else. With us growing but not ready for a church, we had to look into bigger spaces and started with one conference room in a hotel. However, we eventually consumed every conference room in the hotel as we continued to grow.

As we grew, we saw a lot of gifts and opportunities. As a result, we wanted to start a physical church where everybody was included and invited. Even if they seemed like they didn’t fit into a“traditional church”, they would be accepted at our church. I sought God and God spoke to my heart and said, “I want you to start a church and I’m going to send everybody that is like you to the church. You will have a church and they’ll be other churches, too. There will be people that I send to those churches, but you will become your own individual church with the people that I’m creating and building for your church.” That’s how we became our own identity and individual church with our own personality that God established because God put this in Ricky’s heart. Everyone from various backgrounds would be welcomed as family and they would have a place for them to go to church in a family… MiraclePlace Church.

Here we are still standing today with the same message from 2001: Everyone from various backgrounds are welcomed as family and this is a place for you to actually go to church in a family… Miracle Place Church in Baker, LA. Come as you are, You Belong Here!
