Genesis 24:52-26:16; Matthew 8:18-34; Psalm 10:1-15; Proverbs 3:7-8

In Genesis 24:52 on, Abraham is getting old so he sends his servant, Eliezer, to his homeland to find a wife for Isaac. Amazingly, Abraham trusted God so much that he sent Eliezer knowing that God would send His angel before him to pick the perfect person to carry out the seed line and covenant of God. Great news, this plan includes us. God says, “I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven and will give unto your seed all these countries and in your seed shall all nations of the earth be blessed.” (Genesis 26:4) Now that seed line leads to Jesus Christ. Jesus is the promise and when I accept Him as Lord and Savior I have access to all of God’s promises and more.

I’d like for you to imagine your dad sending his servant to scoop up your wife. Imagine Rebecca, a woman saying, “I will go with this stranger to marry a man I have never seen.” It had to be a move of God.

Some time later Rebecca gets pregnant with twin boys, Jacob and Esau. They are fighting in the womb. Sounds like family to me, brothers if I may say. One day Esau was hunting and spent a lot of time in the woods and because he was very hungry, Jacob was able to take advantage of him. Jacob had cooked some food and, seizing the moment, told Esau he would give him the food in exchange for His birthright. Esau swore to give his birthright but later despised his brother.

This is a great lesson for us today. We must never sell out our God-given birthright to the world for a bowl of soup. You may be tempted to give into the flesh, to sell out to something in the world but Esau teaches us that we will despise that decision for the rest of our lives. We will never sell ourselves short to the world in exchange for some temporary fix that it offers. What shall it profit us if we gain the whole world and yet lose our souls? No, there is nothing in the world worth losing our birthright in Christ Jesus.

PRAYER:

God, I reaffirm my faith and commitment in You. I will not give into the animal appetite that is in my flesh. Help me God to serve You all the days of my life. I choose to walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Holy Spirit, teach and lead me in the mighty name of Jesus. 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!
