Can We Talk For a Minute
Today I want to talk about love and forgiveness. Perhaps you have been struggling with forgiving those who have offended you or perhaps your greatest fight is forgiving yourself. It is so important that you abide in Father, because when you do, you will find yourself resting in love. More than ever in this season God is calling you and me to a level of forgiveness and love that is beyond our natural comprehension or reasoning. When you are able to embrace with a pure heart, "That's Love." When you are able to forgive and forget, "That's Love." When you are able to empathize with others, "That's Love." When you can sacrifice self in order to meet the need of another, "That's Love." When you seek out those you have injured, "That's Love." And when you can look the past in THE FACE with all it's guilt, shame, hurt, and confusion; and say, bye-bye and step out of it and its power over you, "That's Love." Your greatest weapon against the kingdom of darkness in this season is the power of our Heavenly Father's love. So, make up your mind to be all that God is calling you to be by embracing His Spirit; walking in love and saturating others with this precious gift, which is desperately needed in the lives of so many. Proverbs 10:12 (KJV) "Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins."

It is important that you remain on course with what the Lord has mandated in this season and do not deviate from the direction that He is taking you in as well as the instructions that He has given to you. In and of yourself, your thoughts, feelings and intellect (your flesh) will be strong in this season coupled with the influence of those around you and because your flesh craves comfort and the familiar, you will be tempted to change the instructions and direction of this season. Don't do it, do not deviate because to do so will stifle your growth and hider you from truly operating in your full potential. If you deviate it will cause you to abandon the process that is meant to shape and mold your character and integrity, as well as hone your gifts to build others. I feel this so strong as I write to you. You are on the brink of manifestation but it cannot be on your terms but the Lord's. You must stay the course and not change or omit any steps along the way. The unsettling feeling you are experiencing in the pit of your belly is Holy Spirit's attempt to re-direct you so that you do not deviate from your Kingdom assignment. There are people's destiny that are hanging in the balance and an elevation of the Lord that you haven't even began to scratch the surface in your mind that He has for you but you must stay the course and not deviate from the path. Proverbs 7:25 "Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, Do not stray into her paths." Can We Talk For a Minute,
This is a great season that we have entered into. I speak from the manifestation of God since we last spoke. You see in September over night I became an International Best Selling Author... and that was just the beginning of God's answering of prayer not quite looking like I thought it would. It was and still is a lot of hard work but this is what happens when you are on the move. Like me, you are on the move and this is a great thing, however, in this season there can be "No Shortcuts" to where the Lord is taking you. You will need to silence the voices that come in agreement with your flesh and allow Holy Spirit to lead you into all truth. Trust the Lord with all that is within you on this journey we share. Maturity is continuous in the Kingdom of God, and there are no shortcuts to gaining what the Lord has for you. Your flesh is uncomfortable and it should be if you are to embrace and learn of Him. The Lord is stretching us beyond the comforts of our flesh. The Lord's ways are higher than your ways; therefore, lean not unto your own understanding, because when you do, the short and easy road will be more appealing to your flesh: And will rob you of being the authentic voice our Lord desires to raise up. Matthew 7:13 (MSG) says, "Don't look for shortcuts to God. The market is flooded with surefire, easygoing formulas for a successful life that can be practiced in your spare time. Don't fall for that stuff, even though crowds of people do." From the Heart ~Dr. Patti Can We Talk for a Minute?
These are the last days, but they are still in the book of acts. Yes, take a minute and wrap your mind around the fact that Acts has not concluded and we are standing on the shoulders of some of the greatest men and women of all times. We have Acts for Jesus that we must do as we await His return. The world is not worse than it was a few centuries ago …it really isn’t that different. It is just that we are being touched by it, we are living in it. Guess what, Peter was living through and was touched by what was happening around him. I’m sure that Noah warned his children about the evils of the day. We know that Job did because he sacrificed for his children daily. Truthfully, was it any different when the Samaritan was attacked as he walked the street than when someone is attacked today? Of course not. Paul was chosen for the time of growing a church, Peter was chosen for birthing out or establishing a church, Stephen was chosen for his time, Lydia was chosen for her time, and Priscilla was chosen for her time. We…You and I, have been chosen by God for such a time as this. It is our turn as followers of Christ to do the things that He did and greater because he has returned to His father. It is our time to introduce Jesus to a lost, sin sick and dying world. It is our time to combat the very things that our forefathers combated so many years ago. Why? Because He is preparing a people for His return. Their job was to comfort a church that had seen their founder, Lord and Savior taken away and to encourage them to hold on. Our task is to encourage a church to hold on and stay faithful and comforted because our founder, Lord and Savior is about to return. What are you going to do? Are you going to give yourself an excuse to not fulfill the will of the Lord for our Lives? Or are you going to step up and be the chosen vessel for the times that you are in?. God did not choose Ezekiel, Moses, Jude and Phillip; neither did he choose Rahab, Rhoda, or Ruth for 2023. They had their time. He has chosen you Man of God. He has chosen you Woman of God. He has chosen you Child of God. He has chosen you complete with your shortcomings, insecurities and lack of perfection. He has chosen you because He knows that you were created to fulfill His purpose for His people in this the times that we live in. HE CHOSE YOU!!!!! This is your time. God indeed has a plan for you and a purpose for such a time as this. Can we talk for a minute?
There are some things that the Lord gives me to share with you that I must first walk out before releasing. Today's post is one of those things. The Lord said to me , "Patti…Take the Walk and when you have finished I want your to release this to the people." Then He went on to explain the what and why of this walk. So, here it is If you expect to experience the Father in a deeper dimension, you will need to Take the Walk that leads to death, denial, and denouncement of self. My brothers and sisters, there is a demand on your life to grow beyond your current status, and the walk that the Father is calling you to will transform you into becoming the ambassador that's needed in the earth at this particular time. Take the Walk and stop complaining and making excuses as to why you are not able to conform to the image of Christ. Take the Walk that is sure to translate you into the vessel that the Father needs to fulfill His plan in the earth. Remember, the walk may require you to walk it alone, it may also come with periods of isolation and disappointments; nevertheless, "Take the Walk." because your destiny is awaiting your arrival!” From the Heart ~Dr. Patti Can we talk for a minute?
It is important to approach life purposefully, but to really make life all that it can be, we need to not simply have a purpose, but have a God-given purpose. We may have some good ideas, but “God ideas” are always better than good ideas. The ideal way to live a purposeful life in 2023 is to have a vision to accomplish for the year, and that vision is best when it's given by God. A God-given vision will not only give you purpose but will be something with eternal significance. Vision is a clear mental picture of something that God desires for your life. Vision clarifies purpose, helps establish priorities, motivates commitment, maximizes productivity, and fuels passion. Vision is a specific desire that God has for our future. It gives us a direction to head in. Vision grows out of a need that we see around us, something so strong we just can’t get it out of our minds. It gets into our hearts and becomes a burden for us. As we are burdened for this need, we begin to let God use us in fulfilling the cause. As we move to action, we ask God for direction to see His vision of a better future realized for this need. As God responds, He provides our mission, our purpose, and our focus for the year. So, what needs are breaking your heart? What do you see around you that God wants to change? Ask God to lift the greatest desire above the rest and see what becomes a burden you carry. Then, ask God what your role will be to see that need met or changed. When you have your mission, you will have a purpose every day. Let 2023 be a year of eternal significance. Ask, and it will be given. Remember, God has the most Amazing plan for YOU! From the Heart~ Dr. Patti Can We Talk A Minute? I wanted to ask you a question. Did you hear that?! Did you feel that?! Can you sense that?! I’m not talking about the sound of a breakthrough or the sound of refreshing, I’m talking about the sound of the enemy grasping at straws! He feels the squeeze and he is upset because you are doing serious damage to him and his plans. That is good news. That is exciting. That is what we are supposed to be doing. Let me slow it up and just talk to you for a minute. I was so excited when the Lord gave this to me to share that I kind of dropped you right in the middle. So I will start at the beginning and catch you up. So much has been happening lately, the days are flying by like the wind, frustrations are sitting on top of you, random things are occurring that make you wonder what in the world, why and how. Many of you have felt that you had done something wrong, were somehow not praying hard enough, not in the perfect will of God and all of the other things that ran through your mind. But that is not the case. This is not the hour to permit offenses or responses to cause you to shrink back from what the Father has called you to do because, YOU are Doing Some Damage! You have no idea of the tremendous breaking against the kingdom of darkness and its forces you have made. Beloved, your voice is sounding off and is vibrating in dark places; your worship is shaking loose the prison doors; and your prayers of warfare are making head ways against rebellious spirits. And although you may not presently see the evidence in the natural, understand that your tenacity has pushed back the diabolic plans of the enemy and his cohorts. Precious one reading this today, do not allow the enemy to plant seeds of doubt regarding who you are or where you are going, because your faithfulness to the Lord is damaging evil forces in ways you can not fathom. Regain your composure, and move in confidence according to the Holy Spirit's leading because, believe it or not, You're Doing Some Serious Damage and our Father has already gone before you to clear the way for your arrival! Now that is good news isn't it! You see, so many times we forget that our primary purpose is to lift Jesus Up and in so doing we are snatching others as it were from the fires of hell and we are exposing the lies and plans of the devil and we are drawing many to the love of the Father. This not only infuriates the enemy but it weakens him and his influence in his own atmosphere. Those offenses that are coming your way…Those responses that are unwarranted and frankly confusing that are trying to get under your skin…that gossiper…that bill that you thought had been settled…all of these things are just a grasping at straws to try and pull you from the place that you are resting and working in God. So just keep doing what you are doing because you, yes YOU are doing some serious damage! From the Heart ~ Dr. Patti Can We Talk a Minute?
The enemy set out a major attack against you, and his purpose was to bring confusion to your thought processes concerning your obedience to the Father's instructions. Babies, you are so close to moving beyond the norm and entering into Kingdom operations, which are not to be compared or confused with the systems of this world. Therefore, shake yourself; take a deep breath (by going deeper in prayer), and regain your focus because It's Time To Regroup! Man, Woman, Boy and Girl, do not linger in the soulish realm, but allow the Holy Spirit to make intercession through you and advance as the Spirit of Grace leads. The Father desires to birth out a prayer through you that is sure to shake the gates of hell off its hinges. But, in order to receive spiritual victory for yourself and those around you, it will be necessary that you regroup by returning to the three spiritual disciplines- Prayer, Fasting, and Meditating on the Word of God. It's Time To Regroup! Romans 8:25-27 says: "But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God." Whatever it is that you are experiencing in this hour, please understand that new means new and there is so much old that we are used to depending on that when it Lord commanded us to “take back dominion” we didn’t know what to do with the new that we became in the process. Don’t you dare sit down, don’t you dare hang your harps on the willows but regroup and move forward. You are on the right track and you are getting uncomfortably close to what our God has planned for you and the enemy is trembling. Regroup and move on.

There is a lot of activity taking place in your atmosphere at the moment and I need to encourage you to keep your eyes open for Flesh Eaters because they do not have your best interest at heart nor are they mindful of the vision that God has given you. They are drawn by the anointing on your gift, your call, and the spiritual level in which you operate. Flesh Eaters lack loyalty, and they are spiritual frauds, because their ultimate goal is to really be you, which will never happen. They are self-seeking; envious deceivers who come to eat away at your mission, purpose, and destiny by pretending to be in your corner when in fact, their desire is to learn the secrets of your heart. Flesh Eaters are no doubt on assignment by the enemy to eat you alive and this is done by feeding your ego. Therefore, resist the need to be stroked, remain watchful, repentive, pure, holy, and humble to avoid all Flesh Eaters. Jesus describes them like this in Matthew 23:27 & 28 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchers, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity The Message Bible talks about them like this "You're hopeless, you religion scholars and Pharisees! Frauds! You're like manicured grave plots, grass clipped and the flowers bright, but six feet down it's all rotting bones and worm-eaten flesh. People look at you and think you're saints, but beneath the skin you're total frauds." They are easy to spot because they awaken your flesh and its need to be stroked. When this happens my brothers and sisters, hit your knees and ask our Father where the breech is in you that they are able to get to you. You see Flesh eaters can never be salt nor light and therefore they can never attain the promises given to the salt and light. They are attracted to it because their spirits remember what it was like to be where you are headed. Guard your nations in this hour and watch as well as pray. From the Heart ~ Dr Patti |
