Rickey E. Macklin spreads the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a way that it empowers men, women, and youth of all ages to: find their purpose, ignite the fire of their passion for their purpose, remain committed to their God-ordained assignments, and reach their destinies through his high impact teachings, books, bible study tools, words of wisdom, and compassion for their souls. It is these four principles that are at the heart of his ministry of preparing the Body of Christ to live victoriously.
Are you broken and marred by life’s situations and circumstances? I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t matter what you’re going through – The Potter wants to put you back together again. It’s a wonderful thing to know that even though you have issues you are still in His hands. (Jeremiah 18)
PURPOSE Rickey loves to share God’s Word regarding Purpose being God’s original intent for our lives before He released us from heaven. As with Jeremiah, God says, “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” (Jer 1:5) God likewise knew us and sat us aside for a unique purpose. Moreover, Heaven’s resources are located in the category filed as “Your Purpose.” If we discover our purpose, then we’ll unlock God’s Resources to accomplish our assignments here on earth! When we discover and walk in our purpose, God will receive all the glory, honor, and praise!
PASSION Passion is a powerful or compelling emotion or feeling. Rickey teaches that passion is the fervor, zeal or drive that causes us to perform a task unto excellence. It is what’s set before us that gives us the overwhelming stick-to-itiveness to complete the task. A prime example of this can be found in the life of Jesus. “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Heb 12:2) His passion led Him to the cross, but His obedience brought about a revolution the world had never experienced before!
Alter Call after message: Lord, Make Me Over!
ASSIGNMENTS Rickey ministers about the importance of staying on course to completing all Assignments – which are individual tasks that are absolutely necessary to get us to our destiny. They sharpen us and perfect our gifting which prepares us for God’s ultimate mandate. Although these assignments may sometimes seem trivial, they are necessary. Such as David, although anointed king – his first assignment was going back to tending the sheep! (1 Sam 16)
DESTINIES Rickey Macklin is passionate about teaching that when we walk in our purpose, it produces the passion necessary for our assignments. As a result, we show forth the glory of God as we display here on earth what He (GOD) predestined us to be before the foundation of the world. Subsequently, this leads us to our Destiny. We will indeed exemplify the nature and character of Christ in our purpose, in our passion and in our assignments. Then one day as did the Apostle Paul, we too can say, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.” (2 Tim 4:7,8)

Are you a fence straddler? Are you serving both God and the devil? If so, God is not looking for a Part-Time Lover —- but rather, He is looking for someone who’s ready to make a life-time commitment to Him. His arms are wide open. Whatever you’re going through, Jesus says I’ve been there. Look at the nail prints in my hands. My friend, it’s time for you to reconnect. It’s time for you to be restored. (1Jn 1:9)
