Judges 17:1-18:31; John 3:1-21; Psalm 104:1-24; Proverbs 14:20-21

“Jesus replied, ‘I assure you: Unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.'” (John 3:3)

 

“For God loved the world in this way: He gave His One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world that He might condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. Anyone who believes in Him is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the One and Only Son of God.”   (John 3:16-18)

    

God took all of the risk and all of the work for salvation. He draws us to Himself, He convicts us of our sin and lost state, all we have to do is believe in Jesus and by faith receive what He has done for us, and we become saved, born again if you will. Then once we are born again the Holy Spirit takes on the responsibility of leading and guiding us through life. Since you cannot see the kingdom of heaven without being born again, per Jesus, then it’s kind of a no-brainer.

 

“When you say believe in Jesus and receive His sacrifice, what exactly does that mean? Can I just say a prayer and move on in life?” When you are truly born again you don’t want to move on in life, you want to get to know your Savior in a deeper way. Most of us start out good but then encounter some struggles because of how we are accustomed to coping with life’s challenges. When we fail, the enemy of our souls’ swoops in quickly to condemn us. He tries to make us feel as though there has been no change in us. Our minds kick in and if we aren’t careful, we’ll reason ourselves right out of our God experience.

 

Once you have received Jesus, stand strong, keep moving forward. When you fall, get back up. You are saved, you aren’t perfect, probably never will be, however, you are in a constant state of change, and it will become apparent over time. God is good. He is not here to send us to hell, He’s here to give us an opportunity to be spared from that course. If you hear a belittling, condemning voice in your ear command it to go because it isn’t God. God is for you! He wants you to succeed. We’re going to make it through this life with joy, love and peace – I’ll see you on the other side!

 

PRAYER:

Lord, I surrender to You. I pray to be born again. I ask You to change my heart, be real to me. Save me, sanctify me and change the desires of my heart. Make me more like You. I pray for a revelation of what salvation truly means and what it entails. Forgive me for any sin in my life and any shortcomings You see. Help me to keep my mind focused on You. 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!
