Miracle Moment

II Kings 3:1-4:17, Acts 14:8-28, Psalm 140:1-13, Proverbs 17:22

“A cheerful heart does good like medicine, but a broken spirit makes one sick.” Proverbs 17:22

Even modern psychology agrees with this statement. Amazing how so many things in the Bible are believed on in this world even if God isn’t given the credit. Truly we can find all of the answers to life’s questions if we will just seek the Lord. Think about this proverb. Our mental state dictates how we face issues and circumstances in this world. It either heals or hurts. The Bible says it another way in Proverbs 4:23, “Guard your heart for out of it flows the issues of life.” And again, “Do not be conformed to this world but rather be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2

One thing we can do daily to help our mood and general well-being are positive affirmations. That is simply taking the Word of God, or His promises and speaking them over ourselves. “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.” “I am the apple of God’s eye.” “His mercy and grace follow me everywhere I go.” “I am healed by the stripes on Jesus’ back.” ENDLESS support from God’s Word. The more we confess it, the more it drops into our spirit and becomes a revelation, a reality to us. Slowly, as our minds transform, the rest of our life follows.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to realize how serious my thoughts are. Guide me in rooting out negativity and replacing it with positivity from Your Word. Teach me about positive affirmations and encourage me to actually speak them over myself. I want to see my heart shift for the good and my faith increase, in Jesus’ name. 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!
