Leviticus 13:1-59; Mark 6:1-29; Psalm 39:1-13; Proverbs 10:10

“Lord, reveal to me the end of my life and the number of my days. Let me know how transitory I am. You, indeed, have made my days short in length, and my life span as nothing in Your sight. Yes, every mortal man is only a vapor. Certainly, man walks about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they frantically rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them. Now Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You.” (Psalm 39:4-7)

The psalmist teaches us a primary lesson concerning life. It is fleeting, it is short, and it needs to be valued. We are all allotted a certain amount of time here on earth. For some it is a few hours, for some many years, but once that time is up, we move to the next phase of life beyond the portal of death.

How many times have I taken things and people for granted? My goodness, I prayed to make it through the toddler years of my children, then it was junior high and then if I could just make it through high school. Now my children are grown men, living their own lives and what I wouldn’t do to have just a moment of their childhood back for a just a few minutes. I’d like to spend a little more time loving on them and using the lessons I’ve learned to be a better parent. But we can’t go back, life only moves forward.

Armed with this knowledge it is so important that from this very day forward we live life to the fullest. We can’t go back and undo what is done, but we can live it right from today on. We are to love deep, serve fully and most importantly build a relationship with our God. God and people are the only eternal things that will survive this world.

The psalmist stated that people run around in a panic trying to get their “stuff” together and for what? The next generation comes, and they don’t even like our “stuff.” No, we need to invest our time in things of true importance and that is building up people, making a difference in the lives of others. No one will ever look back and wish they would’ve dusted a little more or spent just a little more time at the office. Someone at the end of their days will say that they would’ve like to have been a bit more daring, stepped out a little more, used the “good” dishes, did more kind deeds, been a little more involved in the lives of those they loved, been more spiritually bold, followed God closer, etc.

If you are reading this, then you have been blessed with another day of life. Make the most of the gift God has given you. Don’t be afraid to live, love and laugh. God is with you, and He is for you, get up and take charge of the life you’ve been given.

PRAYER:

Lord, I pray to live for the eternal. I ask You to remind me how short life is so that I take complete advantage of every day. I pray for souls Lord; I want to rack up some crowns to throw at your feet. At the end of the day, I want to know I had balance between work and play and that my ministry was infused throughout everything I did. 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!
