Ecclesiastes 4:1-6:12; II Corinthians 6:14-7:7; Psalm 47:1-9; Proverbs 22:16

 

“Two are better than one because they have a good reward for their efforts. For if either falls, his companion can lift him up; but pity the one who falls without another to lift him up. Also, if two lie down together, they can keep warm; but how can one person alone keep warm? And if somebody overpowers one person, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not easily broken.” (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)

 

No man is an island. No man lives to himself or at least he shouldn’t. God has designed us to be interdependent upon each other. Sure, maybe you are more of a loner type that doesn’t mind being alone, but you will still need people at some point in your life. At the very least maybe they need you…

 

You may be thinking, “Well I live alone. I’m not in a relationship.” This concept goes deeper than a marital relationship or even a roommate agreement. It could apply to a friend or family member, and you don’t have to necessarily live with anyone in order to have relationships. God even puts the solitary in families because He is acutely aware of our need for each other. (Psalm 68:6)

 

Our relationships here teach us how to have fellowship with God. If we can’t relate with those we can see, how can we ever like the Invisible God? God uses others to help provide for various needs but how can He do that if we never open ourselves up to relationship with others. Will you get hurt, probably. Will someone do you wrong, most assuredly. But it still doesn’t mean that we can hole up and keep all people out. Everything in life is a risk but people are worth it. The benefits far outweigh the risks and aggravation. Always remember to include God as the third strand in all of your relationships. He will bind you together and, if you allow Him, keep things right and balanced.

 

PRAYER:

Lord, help me to be open to relationships. Give me wisdom concerning those whose only desire is to harm me so that I can be aware and cut it off. I understand that with people comes stuff, but I trust You Lord. I know it’s Your way of making sure that we are all taken care of throughout life. Father, I ask that You be that third strand of the cord in all of my relationships.

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!
