Genesis 46:1-47:31; Matthew 15:1-28; Psalm 19:1-14; Proverbs 4:14-19

 

“Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.” (Psalm 19:12-14)

 

No matter how wonderful and righteous we believe ourselves to be there will always be things going on with us that sometimes we won’t even be aware of. We don’t have to be in blatant sin to be off track with God. Our humanity and error-prone tendencies should be enough to keep us humble and repentant before a holy God. It should also help us to walk in compassion and to have a non-judgmental attitude toward others.

 

Can you understand that some of the things you do or not do are not pleasing before the Lord? Is it possible for us to see the obvious faults in others yet walk in ignorance concerning things about ourselves? If this is bearing witness with you then I have some great news. We are not depending on our righteous abilities to keep us lined out with the Lord. He knows and sees our every move. He knows the very thoughts and intents of our hearts and He still loves us and makes Himself available to be known. Ain’t God good!

 

The even better news is this, through Jesus Christ we have been given a way to have our sins forgiven and the ability to rise above things that have held us trapped under the sway of our enemy. Power and holiness are found in Christ. We could never struggle and strain our way to be good enough. It is only when we relax and allow the Spirit of God to truly live through us that we find we are even able to scratch the surface of God’s expectation. It’s only through loving Him and fully surrendering to Him that we find true peace and the ability to say like the psalmist, “Let our speech and thoughts be satisfactory to You, our great Savior.”

 

PRAYER:

Lord, there’s no way that I can know or even keep up with all of the things that are offensive to Your holiness. I’ve done and said things in time past that I thought were very “holy” only to find out they were insulting to You. I have also lived in brazen sin but You have freed me and enabled me to stay strong against such things that seek to entrap me. I thank You for all You have done. It is only by Your grace and mercy that I am what I am today and for that I give You praise. You’re worthy Lord, worthy of everything! In the name of Jesus 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!
