Genesis 31:17-32:12; Matthew 10:24-11:6; Psalm 13:1-6; Proverbs 3:16-18

I love the story of Jacob that teaches us even great men and women of God still have to walk life out. I don’t know what you are facing but I know in my heart if you are child of God bought by the blood of Jesus, everything is going to be alright. Can you say favor? Can you say the sure mercies of David?

Think about Jacob who ran from his brother Esau. Talk about dysfunction in the family. Jacob heads to his mother’s brother’s house, Laban. He vows to God that he will serve Him and give Him a tenth of everything he makes. (Genesis 28:20) Jacob works for Laban for twenty years. Over the course of that twenty years, Laban changes Jacob’s wages 10 times but God always caused Jacob to prosper. (Genesis 31:41)

The great truth is this, if God is for me who can be against me. When you are a son of God and His favor is upon you, He works everything out for your good. Even after seeing God’s blessing and favor, Jacob leaves Laban’s house without telling him. This great man of God who has seen God move over and over in his life tells Laban when he catches up to him, “I feared you would use force to keep your daughters from leaving with me.”

Life always amazes me. God keeps and blesses us with everything we have and we see Him move repeatedly in our lives yet we still fear. This shows me that faith is not the absence of fear but rather the ability and fortitude to keep pressing forward in God no matter what we feel or what the circumstance looks like. As soon as Laban and Jacob make a covenant to not harm each other and Laban goes back home, God allows the test one more time. Jacob has to meet his brother Esau whom he ran away from twenty years earlier. Jacob had taken advantage of his brother and took his birthright and his blessing. Now he’s facing Esau riding toward him with 400 men. He freaked out and sought God, wrestling with Him all night. Have you ever faced something in your life that brought you to your knees? If not, you will.

These experiences that seem to be the worse thing in our lives, God turns to be the greatest thing that ever happens to us. As we seek God with all of our heart we will find Him. Remember, we serve the God of comeback. So don’t take a step back, make a full comeback. God is using your pain and your circumstances to provide a turn around plan for you. He is the God of the great return.

PRAYER:

Lord, I thank You that I can move past my fear and discouragement, pick my head up and move forward. My mind and the enemy of my soul always want to beat me up with fear and insecurity but I see that You are the God of the comeback and I appreciate You being in my corner. Forgive me for allowing fear to ever dominate because You have been so faithful. Forgive me for hanging my head instead of pressing forward. I apologize for wasting time on regrets. I love You Father and I thank You for loving me. 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!
