II Kings 13:1-14:29, Acts 18:23-19:12, Psalm 146:1-10, Proverbs 18:2-3

“Then Paul pointed out to them that John’s baptism was to demonstrate a desire to turn from sin to God and that those receiving his baptism must then go on to believe in Jesus, the one John said would come later. As soon as they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then when Paul laid his hands upon their heads, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke in other languages and prophesied.” Acts 19:4-6

Since the men were unaware of Holy Spirit, Paul took a minute to locate where they were spiritually. He discovered they had only been baptized in John’s baptism but didn’t know Jesus. I mean they listened to John and were baptized, symbolically turning from sin and that was great because this shows a desire to be obedient to God. But water baptism, being nice, changing our behavior, none of this stuff saves us, only knowing Jesus and receiving what He has done saves us. When Paul told them about trusting Christ, they had no problem. The salvation experience doesn’t stop there. After receiving Jesus’ sacrifice, they had the bonus of Holy Spirit, and so do we. Jesus said that it was necessary for Him to leave so the Comforter would come. Holy Spirit is with us. He is God. He leads and guides us. He provides shelter from the stress of this world. I’m asking you like Paul asked these Ephesians, “Have you received Holy Spirit since you’ve believed?”

PRAYER: God I acknowledge Holy Spirit as part of the trinity. I ask to receive Holy Spirit and everything He brings with Him. Thank You for not leaving us without Your Presence. I appreciate You Lord. In Jesus’ name.

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!
