I sat dow n and praye d in the Gift of Tongues. Within a few moments, I felt
Holy Spirit Ris ing up w it hin me , like a Fount ain. Ah, t he We ll of Liv ing Wate r!
My thoughts hadn't eve n conne cte d, but I just “ kne w” w hat t o do. Whe n t he
steps of the rig hte ous are w ell -orde re d, Holy Spirit Some times Puts you on
aut oma tic pilot , if only brie fly. At t hat mome nt , you are sure ly abiding in Him.
Just us ing my t houg hts , I took authority in t he Name of the Lord Jes us C hris t.
I cas t out t he s pirit of lucife r. Imme diately , t hat g olden cloud rolle d out of
that church. I could physically see it le ave, lik e a wave that rolled out of t he
room.
That “g olde n light ” was a demonic manifestat ion. The people t houg ht they
were w orshipping the Lord Jes us Christ , and in their hearts and minds , they
proba bly we re. How eve r, t he s in t hat was pres ent there , was the ope n door
for t he demonic t o arrive. That part icular church act ive ly s oug ht
manifestat ions of g old dust , gemst one s , prophet ic w ords and more. Em pty
coffee cups , w ate r bott les and a mis ce llane ous mé lange of things we re oft en
found on t he se ats and floor of the sanct uary as pe ople le ft. Be cause t hey
were not humbled before t he Lord, satan had a fie ld day.
One thing I had notice d about t hat church, is t hat t hey we re not doing wee kly
alt ar ca lls , or we ek ly communion. They were busy chas ing the supe rnat ura l,
and t hat ’s w hat t hey found. Only , it was n’t t he supe rnat ural of God t hat t hey

Som e m onths ag o, I t ook a call from a frie nd. She t old me t hat in less than
ha lf an hour, a serv ice was t o beg in just a few minutes from me. A "prophet"
ha d be en inv ite d in from anot he r stat e. She fe lt t hat I nee de d to g o, and t ha t
pe rhaps t he re w ould b e a w ord for me and t he minist ry. Re luctant ly , I got
myself t oget he r and we nt t o find t his place. I was lee ry , hav ing see n so much
fa lse prophe cy. G od Works in Myste rious Ways , s o I w ent , wat ching for Him.
I took a seat , and again, sat and pray ed in Holy Spirit's G ift of Tongues.
Immediate ly , I was doing s pirit ual warfare , tak ing authority ove r, and cast ing
out t he demonic that had invaded and pe rvaded t he “atmos phe re.” sata n is
the prince of t he air.
For seve ral minutes , I cont inue d on, unt il t he re was a break ing up of w hat was
ha ppe ning in the spirit re alms. They knew I me ant bus iness. They le ft , more
in bits and drov es, t han like a cloud rolling out. The "at mosphe re" ha d
cha nge d. But , t he pastor t ook the mic, and said, "It see ms that Holy Spirit Has
Arrive d, let us beg in."
In this case , she was n't expe rie ncing t he P rese nce of Holy Spirit , but t he
abse nce of the demonic! They had le ft. The room ret urned t o neut ral. This
was not Holy Spirit at a ll.
She int roduce d t he prophet , who was give n g reat accolades. Ev idently , this
prophet pe riodically vis it ed this small g athe ring, coming from anot he r st ate.
He procee de d t o g ive messages t o just about eve ry one there. I was t empte d
to be liev e that at le ast , he w as work ing with G od. That is , unt il I saw him
giv ing out prophe cy afte r prophecy afte r prophecy. There is NO PREC ED ENT
for t hat in the Bible. The prophets of God ty pically came and gave A SING LE
message , us ually of re pe ntance , t o a s ing le pers o n or a city.
During his preaching , and prophesy ing , it seeme d at t imes t hat Holy Spirit Was

Ezekiel 8:8-17
8
Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the
wall, behold a door.
9
And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.
10
So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable
beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.
11
And there stood before them seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and in
the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan, with every man his censer in his
hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.
Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of
12
Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, the LORD
seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth.
He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations
13
14
Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD's house which was toward the
north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
15
Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and
thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house, and, behold, at the door
16
of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty
men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east;
and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the
17
house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they
have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo,
they put the branch to their nose.

Patty is finishing a 1200 page book entitled "Pastor Perfect." Meant for both
pastors and the church as a whole, it is a True Word of God. God Wants His
Church united, under the original Teachings Of Jesus Christ. He Wants an end to
the 2,000 divisions in the church. The book is not Patty's opinions, but based
soundly upon Scripture. It is a call to restoring holiness, respect and reverence in
the church. Look for it this fall!
Patty is available to travel and speak at your conferences, churches and meetings.
