(168) “Gather Yourself, Oh Daughter of Troops!” with Patricia Arenas

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
The war or the enmity is between Satan and the woman and her seed.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:08,520
To this day,

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,000
he's still after the woman that enmity is a mutual hatred that we have with him

4
00:00:15,020 --> 00:00:18,240
and he hates us just as much, but it's our children.

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,460
And now we got a cause. This is our cause.

6
00:00:23,460 --> 00:00:26,640
As King David even said, isn't there a cause?

7
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,680
Yes, there's not a cause. Yeah, that's right. And it awakened me.

8
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,520
God promises in Joel 2 28 to pour out his spirit on all humanity.

9
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,840
Welcome to Global Outpouring where we contend for that promise outpouring.

10
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:52,720
We equip for that outpouring so that we may engage in that very outpouring.

11
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,240
I'm Philip Buss and I'm Sharon Buss. Welcome to the podcast today.

12
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,080
We have with us a very special guest, Patricia Arenas,

13
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,120
and she has been operating in the spirit of God

14
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,000
being moved by the Lord to do spiritual warfare.

15
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000
She has been contending for the outpouring in many,

16
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,800
many ways.

17
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,800
And she's going to share with us some of the things that the Lord has shown her

18
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,800
and encourage you to do the things that the Lord shows you to do.

39
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,840
So today we have with us Patricia Arenas and Patricia,

40
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,080
we just want to welcome you to the Global Outpouring Podcast.

41
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:58,960
Thank you. It's great to be here.

42
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,480
So you've been a believer for a while and,

43
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,960
but how were you raised? Were you raised in a Christian home?

44
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,200
I was not.

45
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:09,200
What was it like?

46
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:14,200
Well, you know, we were born and raised Catholic and I really didn't pursue,

47
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,000
you know, even though we were raised Catholic,

48
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,680
I never really went to church, you know, our family, you know,

49
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,680
unfortunately it was some dysfunction. You know, our,

50
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,840
our mother passed away very, very young, unfortunately from alcoholism.

51
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,840
So it was a broken family and through all of that,

52
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,200
you know, I really just kind of grew up on my own.

53
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,200
I had siblings and we were very close and still are to this day,

54
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,240
but there was spousal abuse and because of this,

55
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,880
so didn't know anything better, you know,

56
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,880
and I just continue to just move forward with my life.

57
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:05,880
So I left home about 14 and lived with my sister and she was a few years older

58
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,880
than me, about six. And you know,

59
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,440
I finished high school and got into the military.

60
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:13,280
Which branch?

61
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,680
I was army. Army.

62
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,480
So what did you do in the military? What did you do in the army?

63
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,680
Well, you know, if it wasn't for my sister, you know,

64
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,680
she's the one who went in first and so she told me about it.

65
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,680
Just, I was 17 years old and I was a Christian.

66
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,480
And you know, being brought up in a very small, you know, city,

67
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,480
I'm actually from New Mexico.

68
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:39,680
What happened was I wanted to get away from all of how I was brought up and stuff.

69
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,680
So I joined at 17.

70
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,280
My mother and father actually signed for me to go in.

71
00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:49,480
Wow. What year was that?

72
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,080
That was 1979 is when I signed up.

73
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,480
And 1980, I actually went into basic training thinking,

74
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,280
oh, I'll just sign up for six years.

75
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:02,680
It gets me away from from home.

76
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,880
You know, that was my intent.

77
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,280
But I ended up staying 20 years.

78
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:10,080
Wow. I'm retired. You made a career out of it.

79
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,880
I sure did. And that's the story in itself.

80
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,480
But you can crack a pretty good whip, I'm sure.

81
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,280
Oh, yes. Yes.

82
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:19,480
And that was good training for what you do now.

83
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,880
Absolutely. Not knowing, but noticed to me that that was what was going to happen.

84
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,080
I just I really enjoyed being in the military.

85
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,280
So not only did I join the Army,

86
00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:35,480
I actually got a job with the Department of Defense there.

87
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,280
And I came back home and it was with the National Guard.

88
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:45,480
So I stayed there until I retired both from the military and from the civilian.

89
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,480
It was a civilian job.

90
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,680
Wow. Yeah.

91
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:53,280
So I was very fortunate and I was able to stay home because I really did love my home.

92
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:56,280
And that's when I met the Lord.

93
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:57,880
Yeah, that was my next question.

94
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,480
So tell us about how you met the Lord.

95
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,280
Were you still in the military when you met him?

96
00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:03,880
Yes, absolutely.

97
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:11,480
In fact, you know, my mother passed away very young because of the alcoholism.

98
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,680
And she was 51 years old.

99
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:20,680
And she passed away like May 28th, gosh, 1981.

100
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,880
I was only 19.

101
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,880
And my father being, you know, like I said, we were born and raised Catholic.

102
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:34,080
He would always have a memorial service for her every single year on that day.

103
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:40,080
And it kind of goes on with a little bit of the background of how I got saved.

104
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,680
My father got very ill in 1996.

105
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:47,680
It was 15 years after my mother's passing and he never remarried.

106
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:53,080
But what was so I started seeing something but not quite knowing what it was.

107
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,680
But it was a miracle not knowing that's what it was.

108
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:03,880
But my father passed away on May 28th, 1996, 15 years to the day of my mother's death.

109
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,080
Wow.

110
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,480
And even to this day, I still feel.

111
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,880
And I was involved with a gentleman.

112
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,480
He was in the military with me, was not married at the time.

113
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,680
And when my father got sick, he wasn't around.

114
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,880
And I was like, okay, what's going on here?

115
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,280
And we had been very, very close.

116
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,680
And finally I asked him and he said, I have cancer.

117
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,880
And it was like two years after my father's death that we got married.

118
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,280
And he passed away in 1998.

119
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,880
It was April 12, 1998.

120
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,880
And things started happening.

121
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:45,480
I started seeking because I was like, why is this happening to me?

122
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:50,680
And thank God for some friends that were in the military with us.

123
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:56,480
Came to pray in the hospital room with his name was Michael.

124
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:01,080
And at that time, I was already getting a stirring from the Holy Spirit.

125
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,880
So he passes away April 12, 1998.

126
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,880
And two weeks later, I was at a Bible study.

127
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,680
And they asked, I told him my story.

128
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,080
I just buried my husband and they said, would you like to receive Jesus?

129
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,080
As your Lord and Savior at this by and I said, yes, I mean, I was broken.

130
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:22,480
Completely broken.

131
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,880
He was my best friend.

132
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,680
So of course they laid hands on me.

133
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:32,480
I really, none of my family had ever been to a Bible study in such a fashion

134
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,680
or gone to any other church.

135
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:42,280
So when I went, I sensed something, but I didn't know what that something was.

136
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:47,880
And then I got home and I went to the National Guard.

137
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:48,880
And that's where I worked.

138
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:56,080
And all of a sudden, I worked in the basement, no windows, oops, one door.

139
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,880
And I go in and they had given me a Bible.

140
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,080
And I looked and I opened it just like an ordinary book.

141
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:08,280
And from the first page and I looked up and I was reading it and I said,

142
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,680
I don't even know how to pray to you.

143
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:15,080
This wind came from nowhere.

144
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,280
There was no air conditioning on.

145
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,480
I was the only one in the room, but it was.

146
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,280
Wow.

147
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:30,280
And I fell on my face on the ground and I started speaking in another language.

148
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:36,480
And the only time I ever heard that was the night before at this Bible study,

149
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,680
but I didn't question it.

150
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:39,680
I just I left it alone.

151
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:44,680
And I was thinking to myself just am I going crazy?

152
00:09:44,680 --> 00:09:46,680
You know, my husband's gone.

153
00:09:46,680 --> 00:09:48,480
My dad passed away.

154
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,680
Am I losing it?

155
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:51,080
That's what I thought.

156
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:57,680
And I heard him say, you are praising me.

157
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:00,080
And I said, you are really real.

158
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,280
He made himself real to me, even to this day.

159
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,880
I remember the exact day, the moment.

160
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,480
It was April 24th, 1998.

161
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,480
And I remember just distinctly saying, I want to walk where you walk.

162
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,680
I want to know who you are.

163
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:17,080
I don't even know who this king of the Jews is.

164
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,880
I didn't not really.

165
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:26,880
And I was in Israel June 1998 for the first time of my life.

166
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,480
He sent me there.

167
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,480
It was very fast.

168
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:34,280
And I started learning about just the feast and just different things that I didn't know

169
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:35,880
about Israel.

170
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,680
And I fell in love.

171
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:42,080
So I was never a very good Catholic, but I didn't know what I really was.

172
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,880
And now I was just a believer.

173
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:50,880
But one of the things that I can honestly say was my friends, if it wasn't for my friends

174
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,880
and I said, I don't know what's going on with me.

175
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,480
They said, well, just come to the church that we go to.

176
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,080
Well, the church happened to be a charismatic church.

177
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,480
And it was a deliverance church.

178
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,080
So I was delivered so many things.

179
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:11,680
So I believe that, you know, he needed to clean me, you know, clean me up, get me ready.

180
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:15,280
But I still it was still a process all along, even now.

181
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,080
It's still a process.

182
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:23,880
But that's how there's just no doubt in my mind whatsoever that I'm born again.

183
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:29,280
I have received the Holy Spirit and I live for him.

184
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,280
I want to know him more.

185
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:36,480
I mean, I'm literally in love with him and I just I want to continue.

186
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:43,180
And so my family, not knowing what was going on, my older sister was very concerned.

187
00:11:43,180 --> 00:11:48,120
And so she followed me to the church I was going to because she thought I was in a cult.

188
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,720
So she goes with me.

189
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:50,720
And guess what happens?

190
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:51,720
She got born again.

191
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:59,640
Glory to God and her, her, her daughter and another niece.

192
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,840
And then my other sister was just like, well, if you're going to, you know, my, my daughter

193
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,660
is going and I don't know where she's going.

194
00:12:06,660 --> 00:12:10,420
She said, if it was me, she said, it's OK.

195
00:12:10,420 --> 00:12:13,000
But now you're messing with my, my children.

196
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,800
So she goes to a Bible study and guess what happens?

197
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,180
So all this time.

198
00:12:19,180 --> 00:12:24,980
time they are still serving the Lord just like I am. I'm just a little bit more outward

199
00:12:24,980 --> 00:12:31,500
going where they've been home, but they're like my main intercessors. They're wonderful

200
00:12:31,500 --> 00:12:38,060
and they just love when I go and do things like this and they're constantly praying for

201
00:12:38,060 --> 00:12:45,900
me and to do, they know I'm just pioneering for the family and they're there just in the

202
00:12:45,900 --> 00:12:52,060
home front, that's our base, right? And praying for the rest of the family to come to know

203
00:12:52,060 --> 00:12:53,260
the Lord Jesus.

204
00:12:53,260 --> 00:12:56,060
So there are still more that need to come in yet.

205
00:12:56,060 --> 00:13:03,780
Oh yes, yes, yes, definitely. But they listen to us now, they see that we've been adamant

206
00:13:03,780 --> 00:13:11,180
with our walk. We have been constant and they're coming around and we just do not give up.

207
00:13:11,180 --> 00:13:14,060
But we were the first fruits of our family.

208
00:13:14,060 --> 00:13:21,260
Beautiful, beautiful. Especially, it's especially strong when there's a big change.

209
00:13:21,260 --> 00:13:25,140
Was there a big change in your attitude and your character?

210
00:13:25,140 --> 00:13:30,540
My goodness, when I said that I was delivered of many things, my husband and I, we had a

211
00:13:30,540 --> 00:13:35,700
wonderful life. I mean, we had everything. I had a beautiful home, we had vehicles, we

212
00:13:35,700 --> 00:13:43,220
had friends, but we had the party life. That was our life. And it was good, I thought.

213
00:13:43,220 --> 00:13:50,620
You know, we had everything. It really was until all of a sudden, you know, my father

214
00:13:50,620 --> 00:13:59,980
goes home and now my best friend, my husband, and I just like, I was devastated. And the

215
00:13:59,980 --> 00:14:07,700
Lord came into my life and I was never the same. And the testimony I would just immediately

216
00:14:07,700 --> 00:14:13,060
would just go tell people. I was like, that's a Maritime woman. And then I was reading the

217
00:14:13,060 --> 00:14:21,740
Word. I was so hungry because I've never knew the Word. But I started questioning, did my

218
00:14:21,740 --> 00:14:22,740
husband know?

219
00:14:22,740 --> 00:14:27,420
Yeah, I was going to ask, did you get any...

220
00:14:27,420 --> 00:14:32,340
Well, you know, it was difficult because, you know, even the church I was going to,

221
00:14:32,340 --> 00:14:37,020
well, did he say the sinner's prayer? Do you know? I was like, I don't know. I don't think

222
00:14:37,020 --> 00:14:43,140
so. I started getting a fear and I thought, how can I live, you know, knowing that I'm

223
00:14:43,140 --> 00:14:49,740
saved and he's not? And I would get just different things from different people. And I finally

224
00:14:49,740 --> 00:14:57,220
just, you tell me. You show me. And a couple of things that he gave me, the Lord, the Holy

225
00:14:57,220 --> 00:15:03,220
Spirit, he just said, I am compassionate to whom I will be compassionate to, which touched

226
00:15:03,220 --> 00:15:10,100
my heart. But the one I would say, and I know it's about Jesus, but he says, if a seed does

227
00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:20,700
not fall down and die, it cannot be fruitful. And it was through Mike's death that my family

228
00:15:20,700 --> 00:15:29,780
came. And my family loved him. He was such a good man. I said, Lord, I know you saved

229
00:15:29,780 --> 00:15:37,420
him because he never complained once, even as much pain that he was in. He never, and

230
00:15:37,420 --> 00:15:44,660
I took care of him those last six months of him going home and he never was angry. He

231
00:15:44,660 --> 00:15:52,860
was never angry with God. He just, he just accepted what was going on. And I couldn't

232
00:15:52,860 --> 00:15:59,100
understand that because I wasn't yet born again yet. But the Lord with his grace allowed

233
00:15:59,100 --> 00:16:04,420
me to take care of him. And I said, I don't even know if I was a good enough wife because

234
00:16:04,420 --> 00:16:12,740
we weren't married very long. And he says, if you fed me when I was hungry, if you have

235
00:16:12,740 --> 00:16:19,100
clothed me when I was naked, if you took care of me when I was sick, then you've done it

236
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:27,500
to the least of my brethren. That's all I needed to hear from him. And I was satisfied

237
00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:32,340
with that answer. I didn't have to go back in my mind over and over. Is he saved? Is

238
00:16:32,340 --> 00:16:38,060
he not saved? Is my family saved? I just trusted. There's nothing that I could have done. I

239
00:16:38,060 --> 00:16:46,180
couldn't change anything. I just had to accept that this was my life now. And I've been serving

240
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:54,380
the Lord 25 years with my sisters. And we came in in Jubilee. We always call ourselves

241
00:16:54,380 --> 00:17:00,900
the Jubilee sisters. Because you know, of course, 1948, which I didn't know at the time,

242
00:17:00,900 --> 00:17:09,300
50 years later, here is 1998. Israel became a nation. Right? So all of these things were

243
00:17:09,300 --> 00:17:17,020
just like dropping upon us and then getting Isaiah 61. Reading Luke 14, you know, and

244
00:17:17,020 --> 00:17:23,620
other people started talking about it. I said, Whoa, this is what they're talking about.

245
00:17:23,620 --> 00:17:30,580
That's me. You know, so I knew he was speaking to me individually. Yes. That no one can change

246
00:17:30,580 --> 00:17:37,580
my mind. I know that I know. Amen. And even if there's how can you believe in this? Jesus,

247
00:17:37,580 --> 00:17:43,840
how can I not? He made himself real to me and no one can take that away. Very true.

248
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:50,460
And that's the contending. Yes. Contending for what you know is truth. And you know that

249
00:17:50,460 --> 00:17:58,060
you know, when he speaks to you in that fashion, there is a God. Absolutely. He makes himself

250
00:17:58,060 --> 00:18:05,060
real to you. Yes. Amen. And that's all I needed. And then I would speak that way to my family,

251
00:18:05,060 --> 00:18:10,420
to my friends, and they would just, they would gravitate to that. The scriptures would just

252
00:18:10,420 --> 00:18:15,980
flow out. And I was just like, this is not even me. They knew that because I was a partier.

253
00:18:15,980 --> 00:18:23,500
I was always out. I had to leave my friends because I knew if I didn't, I would have gone

254
00:18:23,500 --> 00:18:31,460
back to that life. So I even left my job. Wow. Yeah. I took a sabbatical and I started

255
00:18:31,460 --> 00:18:37,540
going to actually a school of ministry every, every year. It was in Mount Carmel. I don't

256
00:18:37,540 --> 00:18:43,100
know if you know of it. I'm in Mount Carmel with David Davis. I know he's gone to be with

257
00:18:43,100 --> 00:18:48,740
the Lord now. Oh yeah. Yes. Yes. In Israel. In Israel. Yes. The Lord would send me over

258
00:18:48,740 --> 00:18:53,780
there and I would go. And. Can you not come out? Yes. That's the one. And still go to

259
00:18:53,780 --> 00:18:59,660
this day every so often whenever we have a chance to go to Israel. So when we spoke earlier

260
00:18:59,660 --> 00:19:06,540
about Israel, it was just like, look at what the Lord does. I love it. He gives us just

261
00:19:06,540 --> 00:19:13,620
that knowledge of who he is and where he's from. And we need to know that because that's

262
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:20,680
our spiritual heritage, which I didn't know. I didn't know about Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

263
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:27,180
We didn't read those stories. I thought Samson and Delilah was just a movie or even Moses

264
00:19:27,180 --> 00:19:33,460
because we never read the word of God. Yeah. We weren't brought up in that way to read

265
00:19:33,460 --> 00:19:37,540
the word of God. In fact, some of the stories would say, if you read the word, you're going

266
00:19:37,540 --> 00:19:42,260
to go crazy. Oh, wow. That's what they would literally, I mean, my sisters would say the

267
00:19:42,260 --> 00:19:49,020
same thing. We're just like, this is weird. But now I can't, I can't stop. Well, you know,

268
00:19:49,020 --> 00:19:55,380
from their point of view, you did go crazy. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. In fact, yes, crazy for

269
00:19:55,380 --> 00:20:00,420
him. Amen. And we've been serving him ever since. And that's what our family sees to

270
00:20:00,420 --> 00:20:07,140
this day. We never went back. Beautiful. Never. Glory to God. So how did the Lord start leading

271
00:20:07,140 --> 00:20:12,880
you into spiritual warfare? Obviously, if you've been in a church that teaches deliverance

272
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:18,860
and practices deliverance, you're already kind of getting on that track. So tell us

273
00:20:18,860 --> 00:20:23,580
a little more about what happened next. Well, it would have to be back to when I was born

274
00:20:23,580 --> 00:20:29,660
again. I kind of skipped that. But I was in that room. And when I was in that room, when

275
00:20:29,660 --> 00:20:36,660
I first had the encounter with the Lord, a name came forth. And I had never heard this

276
00:20:36,660 --> 00:20:43,220
name before, honestly. And the because I was I was praying in tongues, but in a foreign

277
00:20:43,220 --> 00:20:50,220
language, not knowing that it was literally Hebrew. I didn't know that until a few years

278
00:20:50,220 --> 00:20:58,500
later. But the name that came forth was Elijah. And you had no idea who that was? No. So I

279
00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:02,940
literally, you know, I go to the word, I believe it was the leading of the Holy Spirit, because

280
00:21:02,940 --> 00:21:07,380
I even asked him, you know, first of all, I was like, I don't know how to pray to you.

281
00:21:07,380 --> 00:21:14,380
I start speaking in tongues. I literally just opened the word just randomly. And he takes

282
00:21:14,380 --> 00:21:22,660
me to Romans eight. Oh, wow. Yes. I didn't know. And that's because I had never honestly,

283
00:21:22,660 --> 00:21:28,660
I opened it just like a regular book that day to start reading it just from Genesis

284
00:21:28,660 --> 00:21:35,620
on. I had never opened up the Bible. And I was how old was I then? I was already in my

285
00:21:35,620 --> 00:21:43,620
30s. I was in my 30s. So I go to Romans eight. And I love to read that. And what he showed

286
00:21:43,620 --> 00:21:49,780
me was this. And this is Romans eight. And I'm going to start with verse 24. For we were

287
00:21:49,780 --> 00:21:55,260
saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For why does one still hope for

288
00:21:55,260 --> 00:22:02,740
what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

289
00:22:02,740 --> 00:22:12,940
Likewise, the spirit, I remember I felt that wind still not knowing also helps in our weaknesses.

290
00:22:12,940 --> 00:22:20,140
For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought. But the spirit himself makes

291
00:22:20,140 --> 00:22:29,640
intercession for us with groanings, which cannot be uttered. He was doing that in me.

292
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,980
That was my first experience of the Lord. And he gave me the confirmation of what was

293
00:22:34,980 --> 00:22:41,460
going immediately. Because I said, what am I doing? What is this? He opened up the word

294
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:48,900
and I read that and I said, I'm in the presence of a living God. I fell to the ground and

295
00:22:48,900 --> 00:22:54,020
I stayed there for quite some time, just weeping and weeping and weeping and weeping. I don't

296
00:22:54,020 --> 00:23:02,220
know how long I was there, but I believe that's what started this utterance. And like I said,

297
00:23:02,220 --> 00:23:08,800
Elijah came forth when I was praying. So I thought, is there a person? Is it a name?

298
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,780
What is it? So, you know, they gave me a study Bible and it was just the Holy Spirit because

299
00:23:13,780 --> 00:23:20,620
I really didn't know. So I go and I noticed about Elijah. So I went and I looked in the

300
00:23:20,620 --> 00:23:27,460
concordance and there was a name there. And I go, guess where? Where did our brother just

301
00:23:27,460 --> 00:23:36,460
are? That was just having a teaching on Friday night. First Kings chapter 19. That's why

302
00:23:36,460 --> 00:23:42,980
I would go to the school of ministry up in Haw Carmel because he had given that and it

303
00:23:42,980 --> 00:23:52,220
was about warfare immediately. So I was saying, why am I getting this? Who is this prophet?

304
00:23:52,220 --> 00:24:00,860
Because I started reading and I was interested. He took me immediately to this battle that

305
00:24:00,860 --> 00:24:06,220
had nothing to do with me. It was all these thousands of years ago. And I said, why am

306
00:24:06,220 --> 00:24:16,220
I learning this? And I stayed there. And that's how he taught me how to not only contend for

307
00:24:16,220 --> 00:24:24,220
my, you know, he says, work out your deliverance daily with fear and trembling. And that's

308
00:24:24,220 --> 00:24:29,380
even to this day, it's still fearful and trembling because he's still dealing with some stuff.

309
00:24:29,380 --> 00:24:36,620
And coming up here, 25 years later, I'm coming through Tulsa and something happens in my

310
00:24:36,620 --> 00:24:43,260
spirit. And I told the gal that came up with me, we have to stop here. I don't know what's

311
00:24:43,260 --> 00:24:52,300
going on, but I was having a deliverance and it had to do with my mother's background.

312
00:24:52,300 --> 00:24:58,740
She used to always say, but we always kept it hush that we had some native American blood

313
00:24:58,740 --> 00:25:05,540
because I was brought up Hispanic in a Hispanic home. So it was like, we didn't know about

314
00:25:05,540 --> 00:25:13,420
our native culture or where we just always thought, oh my gosh, she said that our grandmother

315
00:25:13,420 --> 00:25:20,940
may have been Pueblo Indian. But something happened as I was coming through Tulsa just

316
00:25:20,940 --> 00:25:29,020
this past week and there I was weeping and weeping because I believe he's trying the

317
00:25:29,020 --> 00:25:38,420
Holy Spirit to reveal something in order for me to go to the next place in my walk of contending

318
00:25:38,420 --> 00:25:49,420
and for me to be equipped. And I know it has to do with my, yes, my DNA, but the land because

319
00:25:49,420 --> 00:25:56,060
we're so connected with the land that I know that that's why he's been teaching me and

320
00:25:56,060 --> 00:26:04,660
my background in the military helps even though he had to, he's teaching me as my trainer,

321
00:26:04,660 --> 00:26:11,780
but there's things in our military that you know, you learn and that's what helped me

322
00:26:11,780 --> 00:26:19,380
to be equipped. I think possibly quicker. There was things that I had to be untaught.

323
00:26:19,380 --> 00:26:26,540
Definitely. But he's also teaching through his word because he's a mighty man of war.

324
00:26:26,540 --> 00:26:37,300
Right? And reading through it, I just gravitated to Ephesians six. I understood it. I gravitated

325
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:45,000
to second Chronicles 20, you know, where these battles and you know, King David with Goliath,

326
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:52,620
it was like, it was my story, but it was my history, my spiritual history, which I didn't

327
00:26:52,620 --> 00:26:57,540
know and that's what the Lord was training me up. These are your patriarchs and your

328
00:26:57,540 --> 00:27:04,580
matriarchs not knowing that that's who they were. Father Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. You've

329
00:27:04,580 --> 00:27:11,340
been grafted in. And I've been grafted in. Wow. Through the blood of Jesus Christ. Amen.

330
00:27:11,340 --> 00:27:19,620
Amen. So he kept teaching you and teaching you and then what did you eventually start

331
00:27:19,620 --> 00:27:28,340
to do? Oh gosh, I would say when I left the military, I retired military, but I left my

332
00:27:28,340 --> 00:27:36,300
civilian job just like a sabbatical, not knowing when I would go back. But I would say immediately

333
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:44,700
he's just started sending me not only to Israel, but I started just getting involved in different

334
00:27:44,700 --> 00:27:50,140
war, not necessarily spiritual warfare, but the prophetic. I think it was through the

335
00:27:50,140 --> 00:27:56,460
prophetic that I started really realizing there's something more with these gifts. So

336
00:27:56,460 --> 00:28:02,660
through the gifts, I could see that there was a part of me that wanted to learn more

337
00:28:02,660 --> 00:28:08,740
about warfare. What did that mean? You know, and of course he took me to second Corinthians

338
00:28:08,740 --> 00:28:15,420
10, four and five, which I would love to go to. And that was another part because I was

339
00:28:15,420 --> 00:28:22,780
getting such deliverance and I needed to understand what was happening in my life because I couldn't

340
00:28:22,780 --> 00:28:28,980
go to my sisters. I couldn't go to my brothers because I was like the pioneer and even getting

341
00:28:28,980 --> 00:28:36,380
deliverance for our family line. Like for instance, before I read that scripture, when

342
00:28:36,380 --> 00:28:42,500
my sisters and I came in, we realized because we were in this deliverance ministry, we as

343
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:51,580
the three sisters broke that curse of alcoholism. And to this day, we do not drink even when

344
00:28:51,580 --> 00:28:58,820
we come as a family with different functions, none of the children or grandchildren, ours,

345
00:28:58,820 --> 00:29:02,700
don't want to drink. You know, and we tell them, you know how we were brought up not

346
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:10,180
to make them fear, but just to realize, look what the Lord has done. He broke this curse

347
00:29:10,180 --> 00:29:20,820
off our family and to die so young. And I'm 61 now. And all of us have surpassed my mother's

348
00:29:20,820 --> 00:29:30,340
age when she passed. So that in itself to me is a miracle. But I'd like to go to 2 Corinthians

349
00:29:30,340 --> 00:29:37,700
chapter 10 and it talks about the spiritual war. So this is, I know I'm not unique. I

350
00:29:37,700 --> 00:29:43,420
believe this is how the Lord teaches us, all of us. And I'm sure you all have your same

351
00:29:43,420 --> 00:29:50,820
stories of how he took you to this particular scriptures, because we need to know what is

352
00:29:50,820 --> 00:29:55,460
going on when these things happen. And he says, I would say I'm going to start with

353
00:29:55,460 --> 00:30:04,580
verse one and it's talking about now I Paul, and we know it's the apostle myself and pleading

354
00:30:04,580 --> 00:30:11,640
with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ who in presence am lowly among you,

355
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,820
of being absent and bold toward you. But I beg you that when I am present, I may not

356
00:30:16,820 --> 00:30:24,300
be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be whole bold against some who think of

357
00:30:24,300 --> 00:30:29,660
us as if we walked according to the flesh. But first three, for though we walk in the

358
00:30:29,660 --> 00:30:35,780
flesh and you always walking in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. I was

359
00:30:35,780 --> 00:30:41,980
like, what does that mean? I still didn't understand about your flesh and the carnality

360
00:30:41,980 --> 00:30:49,700
and now I'm in the spirit that I had to build up my spirit, man. I didn't know I was still

361
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:54,780
just a babe. I mean, I was 36 when I came to the Lord and I was like, but I was still

362
00:30:54,780 --> 00:31:01,940
a babe in the Lord. But this first four, for the weapons, I understood about weapons because

363
00:31:01,940 --> 00:31:06,620
that's how we were trained in the military to understand your weapons of our warfare

364
00:31:06,620 --> 00:31:14,060
are not carnal. Okay. But mighty in God for pulling down strongholds. I understood about

365
00:31:14,060 --> 00:31:19,260
strongholds because that's what we're taught in the military. You know, there's, there's

366
00:31:19,260 --> 00:31:24,380
that strong and there's that enemy. You've got to know who your enemy is. But I always

367
00:31:24,380 --> 00:31:33,820
thought the enemy was that, that other, whether it was a person or that ideal or that country

368
00:31:33,820 --> 00:31:41,060
that we were fighting against, whatever, but it's not that I finally realized who my true

369
00:31:41,060 --> 00:31:49,420
enemy is. And when I found that out, it was no longer against people or whatever. It was

370
00:31:49,420 --> 00:31:58,140
against Hassatan. He is the true enemy. So I knew I need to cast down these arguments

371
00:31:58,140 --> 00:32:04,060
and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought

372
00:32:04,060 --> 00:32:11,940
into captivity, into the obedience of Christ and being ready to punish all disobedience

373
00:32:11,940 --> 00:32:19,540
when your obedience is fulfilled. I got it. And when I got that in my own mind, it was

374
00:32:19,540 --> 00:32:25,500
still a process that even to this day, I'm still growing in that, but I'm not the same

375
00:32:25,500 --> 00:32:32,220
as I was 25 years ago. I'm not the same, not even two months ago. I would even say even

376
00:32:32,220 --> 00:32:41,780
from two days ago, Patricia is not the same woman. I know who I am. Hallelujah. I have

377
00:32:41,780 --> 00:32:48,420
an identity in Christ Jesus and I know that I am a daughter of the most high God. I know

378
00:32:48,420 --> 00:32:54,660
I have a purpose and his plan for me is good and not evil. And I think once we come to

379
00:32:54,660 --> 00:33:03,300
that point, knowing who we are, who can be against us? No one can say any different.

380
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:14,500
I am solid. And we need that foundation. And I believe that's where we're being equipped.

381
00:33:14,500 --> 00:33:19,020
And I started going to schools and going to prophetic schools, going to spiritual warfare

382
00:33:19,020 --> 00:33:24,620
schools, because he had already showed me in the word, but I think being around people

383
00:33:24,620 --> 00:33:33,220
and knowing their story, that's how we were being trained. And as here in global outpouring,

384
00:33:33,220 --> 00:33:39,380
it's the same thing. I had to contend, which I was contending for my salvation through

385
00:33:39,380 --> 00:33:45,380
the help of the Holy Spirit, but he was also equipping me. But then he brought others to

386
00:33:45,380 --> 00:33:51,420
come alongside just like in the military. You have your battle buddies, you have your

387
00:33:51,420 --> 00:33:58,580
team, and now we're engaging. And that's the part that I'm in right now. I've been equipped

388
00:33:58,580 --> 00:34:05,580
and we're always being trained. But it's the engaging now, finding out others that are

389
00:34:05,580 --> 00:34:12,780
doing the same thing as I'm doing. And there's how can I say there's victory in that. Now

390
00:34:12,780 --> 00:34:18,180
we're getting confirmations. Oh, you're doing that? Oh, you're going on that assignment?

391
00:34:18,180 --> 00:34:26,820
That's your mission? And I could see it unfold. And it is absolutely wonderful what the Lord

392
00:34:26,820 --> 00:34:33,420
is doing. He made us for such a time as this. Absolutely. And it was the people before us

393
00:34:33,420 --> 00:34:41,740
that prepared even for us to do what we're doing. So even in that, there's been a convergence

394
00:34:41,740 --> 00:34:47,780
of the prayers before us, the mothers and fathers before us, all of this training. It's

395
00:34:47,780 --> 00:34:53,820
not in vain. That's right. People have done. I wouldn't be here if somebody didn't pray

396
00:34:53,820 --> 00:34:57,860
for me. It could have been my grandmother. It could have been my friends that brought

397
00:34:57,860 --> 00:35:05,060
me to the Lord. But whatever it was, the Lord had somebody to get me into a place where

398
00:35:05,060 --> 00:35:11,540
I would say, here I am. Beautiful. I want to be saved. Even though I didn't know I needed

399
00:35:11,540 --> 00:35:20,340
to be saved. Right? So that's the story of Patricia. I mean, in a nutshell, but there's

400
00:35:20,340 --> 00:35:26,420
so much more. You know, that 25 years worth of so many things that he does in our life.

401
00:35:26,420 --> 00:35:33,060
So tell us how you found us. It's a good story. It's a very good story. Didn't know anything

402
00:35:33,060 --> 00:35:42,100
about in time and maidens, of course, or Gwen Shaw, Sister Gwen. But I moved to Texarkana,

403
00:35:42,100 --> 00:35:48,700
Texas. The Lord sent me there. I was supposed to be there for at least a good two, three

404
00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:55,900
years. And this was because I went back into the military while working for the government.

405
00:35:55,900 --> 00:35:59,780
And I had never left New Mexico before. But I went ahead and did. And it was a good thing

406
00:35:59,780 --> 00:36:06,340
because I needed some healing. But I needed to leave something familiar. Because that's

407
00:36:06,340 --> 00:36:12,860
where my roots are at. Right? So he pulled me from there. And it was through a mutual

408
00:36:12,860 --> 00:36:17,980
friend that is from New Mexico, but she lived in Arkansas. That's where she was born and

409
00:36:17,980 --> 00:36:25,460
raised. So it was like almost my last week to and I was going to be heading back home.

410
00:36:25,460 --> 00:36:30,140
And we were both on a call and it was a prayer call. And I said, Well, I'm here in Texarkana,

411
00:36:30,140 --> 00:36:34,500
but I'm going to be heading back home. She goes, Is that you Patricia? And I said, Who's

412
00:36:34,500 --> 00:36:40,140
there? She said, Linda. And she said, Come on by to Arkansas. I want you to meet my mom

413
00:36:40,140 --> 00:36:45,500
and come out here before you leave. So I said, Okay. So I drove from Texarkana, which is

414
00:36:45,500 --> 00:36:51,500
about maybe two and a half, three hours, get to her home. And we just started talking one

415
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:57,460
night and she goes, Have you ever heard of Gwen Shaw or even Ruth Hefflin? And I said,

416
00:36:57,460 --> 00:37:03,900
No, I never have. She goes, Wow, I've been thinking of going out there this weekend.

417
00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:09,380
She said, Would you like to go and I'll contact the ladies that I do know there. And so she

418
00:37:09,380 --> 00:37:16,820
contacted Margaret, one of the ladies here, and of course, contacted you all. And that's

419
00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:24,740
how I came to know and this was this was, gosh, I think it was June or July of 2020.

420
00:37:24,740 --> 00:37:32,300
Wow. Yeah, because I went back home in August of 2020. So it was still during, you know,

421
00:37:32,300 --> 00:37:40,260
the time of COVID. And you I mean, there wasn't anyone here. It was a miracle to even have

422
00:37:40,260 --> 00:37:46,300
come. Wow. And to meet you all. Yeah. And that's how we met. And after that, I just

423
00:37:46,300 --> 00:37:51,620
decided, you know, this is something I want to be a part of the ministry and started learning

424
00:37:51,620 --> 00:37:58,820
a little bit more about you all and, and got dedicated. And I've been dedicated, talking

425
00:37:58,820 --> 00:38:05,860
to other women. In fact, the gal that I came with now, she said, she had met Sister Gwen

426
00:38:05,860 --> 00:38:14,500
in New Mexico, a few years back. And that's where the gal that just got dedicated. Wow.

427
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:22,000
And she knew that this is something that she always wanted to do. So I drove her up here.

428
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:28,420
And here we are. Glory to God. Glory to God. Yes. Wow. It's been a blessing. Hallelujah.

429
00:38:28,420 --> 00:38:35,300
It's been a blessing. So during that time of the lockdown, the Lord began to give you

430
00:38:35,300 --> 00:38:42,380
some leadings. And I know that some of it is, you use the word stealth when you talk

431
00:38:42,380 --> 00:38:47,100
about it. So, so it's not, it's not the kind of thing that, you know, you make, you, you

432
00:38:47,100 --> 00:38:51,260
toot your horn about, but is there anything that you can share with us about the how the

433
00:38:51,260 --> 00:38:56,340
Lord led you? Because I think maybe some of our listeners are feeling things and, and,

434
00:38:56,340 --> 00:39:02,620
and they just need to know that this is normal. Right. It is. You know, being in military,

435
00:39:02,620 --> 00:39:07,060
you know, if he tells you to go, you're going to go on that mission and you have to be mission

436
00:39:07,060 --> 00:39:14,820
focused. I knew that in my mind, but I had never gotten a command or a marching order

437
00:39:14,820 --> 00:39:19,540
from him directly because I knew he was still healing me, delivering me. I mean, you're

438
00:39:19,540 --> 00:39:24,740
not going to send somebody out to, to war when they're not, you know, really ready,

439
00:39:24,740 --> 00:39:29,980
even though I've been training up through the leading of the Holy spirit to go through

440
00:39:29,980 --> 00:39:38,140
all of this warfare for me individually. But now he started bringing others alongside me.

441
00:39:38,140 --> 00:39:43,780
And that's when I knew he was building up a team and it was just a team of three right

442
00:39:43,780 --> 00:39:49,100
now. And then, and then there was other women that would pray with us, but we always called

443
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:55,060
ourselves, you know, the daughters of troops and that is in Micah five one. And it was

444
00:39:55,060 --> 00:40:01,900
an identity. Yeah. It's not a ministry. It's not a, you know, anything, but who we are

445
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:08,340
as daughters. So if you go to Micah five one, which I would love to read, because there's

446
00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:14,420
many women out there that think, what can we do? You know, and especially, you know,

447
00:40:14,420 --> 00:40:19,740
we think, oh, we can't go to war. We've been going to war as women for a long time since

448
00:40:19,740 --> 00:40:26,820
the beginning with Genesis, the, the war or the enmity is between Satan and the woman

449
00:40:26,820 --> 00:40:36,380
and her seed. Right. To this day, he's still after the woman. That enmity is a mutual hatred

450
00:40:36,380 --> 00:40:42,860
that we have with him and he hates us just as much, but it's our children. And now we

451
00:40:42,860 --> 00:40:49,820
got a cause. Yes. This is our cause as King David even said, isn't there a cause? Right.

452
00:40:49,820 --> 00:40:55,540
Yes. They're not a cause. Yeah, that's right. And it awakened me because when you're not

453
00:40:55,540 --> 00:41:02,540
in that realm, you don't even know what Satan is doing with our children until you're awakened.

454
00:41:02,540 --> 00:41:10,340
And now you're like, wait a minute. Now I'm in this war. Yeah. And now I choose to go

455
00:41:10,340 --> 00:41:17,660
here. Nanny, here I am. Right. Amen. So I think in meeting these other women, they're

456
00:41:17,660 --> 00:41:23,260
the grandmas, the great, I'm a great grandma. I might not sound like it, but you know, through

457
00:41:23,260 --> 00:41:27,660
through my, my, my second husband, he had six children, but I won't go into all of that,

458
00:41:27,660 --> 00:41:35,140
but his grandchildren call me grandma. And now we have about 12 great grandchildren.

459
00:41:35,140 --> 00:41:42,860
Come on. He said in Isaiah 54, you who have never bore a child will have more than the

460
00:41:42,860 --> 00:41:48,500
married woman. Look at that. He's done it. So when you read things like that, how can

461
00:41:48,500 --> 00:41:55,340
you not have an identity? Right. So I'm going to go to Micah so we can, so we can kind of

462
00:41:55,340 --> 00:42:03,300
see how he, he works with women, right? Yes. This is good. So Micah five one tells us now,

463
00:42:03,300 --> 00:42:12,140
here we go. Now women, now is the time gather yourself in troops. This is a now word. And

464
00:42:12,140 --> 00:42:18,300
this is from the Holy spirit speaking through me right now, because I could feel the unction

465
00:42:18,300 --> 00:42:24,380
that now is the gather yourself in troops. Oh, daughter of troops. I'm speaking to you

466
00:42:24,380 --> 00:42:31,500
daughters. He's speaking to you. He has laid siege against us. The enemy has laid siege

467
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:39,460
against us. He's taking our children and they're doing things that it's unimaginable, heinous

468
00:42:39,460 --> 00:42:46,940
acts and we need to wake up and we need to gather now as those daughter of troops. So

469
00:42:46,940 --> 00:42:51,700
that's what we started doing. These women just started coming around. We started praying

470
00:42:51,700 --> 00:42:58,580
and the Lord sent us out. We just went to different places, you know, throughout different

471
00:42:58,580 --> 00:43:06,580
parts of the country, really sending out on assignment, repenting, praying, even during

472
00:43:06,580 --> 00:43:14,180
COVID. Yeah. He would just send us and we were fine. We went, we prayed, we repented.

473
00:43:14,180 --> 00:43:20,180
And what does he say in second Chronicles? I mean, that was one of our, our, our heart

474
00:43:20,180 --> 00:43:26,940
scriptures, you know, that when he spoke to us with that, and I want to, I want to go

475
00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:34,940
there so you could see how the Lord speaks to all of us. Yes. And second Chronicles seven

476
00:43:34,940 --> 00:43:44,540
14. If my people, yes, if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and

477
00:43:44,540 --> 00:43:53,380
pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven

478
00:43:53,380 --> 00:44:01,460
and forgive their sins and heal their land. Powerful scripture. Two different things.

479
00:44:01,460 --> 00:44:08,860
He forgives our sin, but he also heals our land. Yes. And that's what we've been needing,

480
00:44:08,860 --> 00:44:14,420
especially where I'm from. And I know all of us can attest to that in any part, whether

481
00:44:14,420 --> 00:44:21,060
it's Arkansas, whether it's New Mexico, we need healing in our land. And I believe that's

482
00:44:21,060 --> 00:44:28,900
why the Lord needed me to understand a little bit more about my, my native side. Yeah. I

483
00:44:28,900 --> 00:44:37,500
don't know it. I just know that there's something there. Yeah. And I need to embrace that now

484
00:44:37,500 --> 00:44:45,180
because he wants to speak into that and he wants to heal and forgive our sin, but also

485
00:44:45,180 --> 00:44:52,900
heal our land. A lot of atrocities happen when you know the conquistadors and there's

486
00:44:52,900 --> 00:44:59,260
a lot of history and that's where the Lord takes us. He has us research. He has us go

487
00:44:59,260 --> 00:45:09,380
into biblical research, but also our historical research so that we can get to the origin

488
00:45:09,380 --> 00:45:18,500
as best as we can and pray, repent. So all I can tell you now is that there's water in

489
00:45:18,500 --> 00:45:25,660
our land. The Rio Grande was very dry a year ago where you can literally walk across it.

490
00:45:25,660 --> 00:45:33,780
Wow. That right now it's a raging river. This is one year everyone. And I know it's not

491
00:45:33,780 --> 00:45:40,860
just us praying. This is people praying and prayers from the past. He's already starting

492
00:45:40,860 --> 00:45:49,060
to flow. Amen. Amen. Another beautiful lake up close to Santa Fe. It's called Cochiti

493
00:45:49,060 --> 00:45:55,700
Lake. My nephew just told me, cause they always go out there to boat and fish. He said where

494
00:45:55,700 --> 00:46:02,000
the water was at before it's all the way up here now that they have to park even further

495
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:09,340
away when it was, you know what I mean? That it's so full. Glory to God. Prophetic what

496
00:46:09,340 --> 00:46:16,980
God's going to do. Amen. So all those prayers, people coming, the prophetic words, that's

497
00:46:16,980 --> 00:46:23,660
contending. He says to contend for your prophetic word, but for your land. Right. Amen. People

498
00:46:23,660 --> 00:46:29,300
have come from Dutch Sheets and different people, Chuck Pierce, Cindy Jacobs, Gwen

499
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:36,460
Shaw. You, I believe both of you have come. Prophetic words have come forth, but now the

500
00:46:36,460 --> 00:46:44,020
people of the land are prophetically speaking as well. And we're seeing the transformation.

501
00:46:44,020 --> 00:46:51,020
Glory to God. We're engaging now. That's the importance of us being healed and delivered

502
00:46:51,020 --> 00:46:57,140
and understanding about spiritual warfare so that we can come and take back what the

503
00:46:57,140 --> 00:47:03,420
enemy has stolen from each and every one of us. That's the cause. Glory to God. And that's

504
00:47:03,420 --> 00:47:10,180
the passion. And that's what he went to the cross for that we take back. That dominion

505
00:47:10,180 --> 00:47:17,420
is ours. We speak into the land. Satan can't. He's a creative being, but we were made from

506
00:47:17,420 --> 00:47:24,460
the dirt. We were made from the land. That's true. We have every authority to speak into

507
00:47:24,460 --> 00:47:32,740
the land. Yes. Yes. Yes. Well, Patricia, would you please pray for our listeners to get them

508
00:47:32,740 --> 00:47:36,220
if they're not already stirred up? I think they're probably stirred up just from the

509
00:47:36,220 --> 00:47:41,380
way you're just, just releasing what the Lord has in you, but pray for them as the Holy

510
00:47:41,380 --> 00:47:48,500
Spirit leads. Yes, absolutely. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Father. Thank

511
00:47:48,500 --> 00:47:56,220
you, Jesus. We have sensed you so strong in this room right now. Father, not even knowing

512
00:47:56,220 --> 00:48:03,460
what was going to happen, what was going to be said, but you have a word. You are the

513
00:48:03,460 --> 00:48:12,300
voice. And he says, remember, remember, remember him that and his voice is thundering right

514
00:48:12,300 --> 00:48:21,340
now. Everyone he says now is the time. Now it's time for us to open up our ears to hear

515
00:48:21,340 --> 00:48:27,900
what the spirit of the Lord is saying. So father, we ask right now for all those that

516
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:36,780
are listening in to, to just unlock, to remove anything that might be staunching their, their

517
00:48:36,780 --> 00:48:45,860
walk or, or stopping from them listening in remove a father. We repent of any deaf and

518
00:48:45,860 --> 00:48:51,660
dumb spirits. Father, remove that from our hearing, remove that from our mouth. The enemy

519
00:48:51,660 --> 00:49:01,620
is always trying to stop us from even engaging, engaging by voicing even the word of God into

520
00:49:01,620 --> 00:49:09,180
the very atmosphere. We need to engage in that way. He is the voice of many waters.

521
00:49:09,180 --> 00:49:15,060
He is the voice thundering and he is that voice that is speaking into your heart right

522
00:49:15,060 --> 00:49:25,860
now. Each and every one of you listen, he is speaking even in that still small voice.

523
00:49:25,860 --> 00:49:32,620
And father, we pray for each person that will listen in even later. Father, that this is

524
00:49:32,620 --> 00:49:38,420
your time that you're not going crazy. You're not, you know, is this what's happening? Am

525
00:49:38,420 --> 00:49:47,100
I really hearing right? Yes. He is speaking loud and clear. The Lord is with us. There's

526
00:49:47,100 --> 00:49:54,540
more for us than there is against us. We will trample on snakes and scorpions and all the

527
00:49:54,540 --> 00:50:02,700
power of the enemy. And by no means, no harm can come to you. Greater is he in us than

528
00:50:02,700 --> 00:50:11,500
the one that's in the world. We need to believe that. And I want to go to, to Isaiah 54 because

529
00:50:11,500 --> 00:50:22,740
Isaiah 54 speaks a blessing for us as mothers, as fathers, as the bride, the bride of Messiah,

530
00:50:22,740 --> 00:50:31,020
because she's making herself ready. Amen. And he's preparing our children. They're coming

531
00:50:31,020 --> 00:50:37,820
back from the borders. They're coming back home, all of them. And we need to be celebrating.

532
00:50:37,820 --> 00:50:44,300
Let us celebrate because our children are coming back from the enemy's camp. We're taking

533
00:50:44,300 --> 00:50:49,980
them back. Yes. But he says here, Oh, you afflicted one. You've been afflicted. All

534
00:50:49,980 --> 00:50:57,260
of us. The enemy has tossed us to and fro with his tempest and we were not comforted.

535
00:50:57,260 --> 00:51:02,380
But behold, he says, I will lay your stones with colorful gems and lay your foundations

536
00:51:02,380 --> 00:51:08,500
with sapphires. I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of crystal and all your

537
00:51:08,500 --> 00:51:18,060
walls of precious stones. 13 Isaiah 54, 13, all your children. I've never had, I never

538
00:51:18,060 --> 00:51:24,460
bore a child from my own womb, but we have spiritual children. And I speak into each

539
00:51:24,460 --> 00:51:31,060
and every one of you. You have spiritual children and all of your natural children shall be

540
00:51:31,060 --> 00:51:39,340
taught by the Lord and great shall be the peace of your children. Yes. This is his word.

541
00:51:39,340 --> 00:51:45,860
Yes. Believe it, trust it, know it. He is not a man that he would lie. He is our husband.

542
00:51:45,860 --> 00:51:53,540
How much more will he give his bride, his wife? Yes. How much even up to half of his

543
00:51:53,540 --> 00:52:01,740
kingdom. Amen. And if he says this, then it is true. I believe it. And we should all believe

544
00:52:01,740 --> 00:52:10,860
because he is the true and living God and he will accomplish it. And the one word that

545
00:52:10,860 --> 00:52:19,980
he did when I first opened my word today and I'll end with this and he says in Jeremiah

546
00:52:19,980 --> 00:52:25,940
chapter one, this is the first he says, then the Lord said to me, he's saying to all of

547
00:52:25,940 --> 00:52:36,620
you that are listening in, you have seen well for I am ready. Yes. The Lord is ready to

548
00:52:36,620 --> 00:52:46,660
perform his word. Yes. Yes. Amen. He is ready. It is now. This is the time and you take that

549
00:52:46,660 --> 00:53:14,660
and you run with it because this is his word.
