Miracle Moment

II Samuel 23:24-24:25; Acts 3:1-26; Psalm 123:1-4; Proverbs 16:21-23

“And a man who was lame from his mother’s womb was carried there and placed every day at the temple gate called Beautiful, so he could beg from those entering the temple complex. When he saw Peter and John about to enter the temple complex, he asked for help. Peter, along with John, looked at him intently and said, ‘Look at us.’ So he turned to them, expecting to get something from them. But Peter said, ‘I have neither silver nor gold, but what I have I give to you; In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!’ Then, taking him by the right hand he raised him up, and at once his feet and ankles became strong.” (Acts 3:2-7)

 

Sometimes people have such tremendous issues that you can feel overwhelmed just listening to them. How do you offer hope to those who are suffering or have walked through so much in their lives? Peter and John were faced with a man that begged for a living because he had been born blind. Some folks would think, “Poor ol’ thing, been like that all his life. He’s out there begging for a living. What could I possibly do to help?” We have to remember that we are limited, the only true help we have to offer is through our God. The disciples probably could have thrown him a coin but that wouldn’t have given him any long term relief. Sometimes when I am asked for help that I know is beyond what I can give, I get frustrated because I want to heal, I want to solve the problem, I want to make things better. I look to myself and I think what can I do, they seem so hopeless. That’s when the Lord stops me and reminds me of all of my dire circumstances that He has seen me through and then I get it. It’s not about me and my power, it’s all about Him. Such as I have I give to you! And He is enough…

 

PRAYER:

Lord, I ask You to give me supernatural boldness to speak into people’s lives. Help me to remember what You have done for me and to realize that what You have done for me You will do for others. I have confidence in You and Your abilities Lord, You are awesome!! I give You all the glory and honor. 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!
