It's Supernatural

SID: Is it possible to change the atmosphere, not just in your home, not just in your community, but an entire country? Let’s take the country of Thailand, the country of Cambodia. First of all, why did you even go there?

PATRICIA: Well Sid, the Lord spoke to me in a prayer time once and He said, “I want you to go to Bangkok, Thailand, because I’m going to teach you some things about sex tourism.” I thought, sex tourism, what is that? We worked in the inner city for years and of course worked with prostitutes. They were making money for their drugs through prostitution. But I never thought of it being a tourist thing. So we went over to Thailand and got a ticket. Went there and, Sid, the first night that I arrived, my heart my vexed because I saw older men that had come from western countries who were buying young Thai girls for the weekend. And I looked at the strain on the Thai girls’ faces, and they were trying to smile, but you could feel their pain. I was in a restaurant one night and I thought—

SID: You know, we’re sheltered here in a country like America. The most we see is a little bit of this on a TV screen. But these are real people that are being abused, children being abused. It’s real. And if we don’t do something about it, who’s going to? Go ahead.

PATRICIA: That’s exactly right. And so the restaurant was full of such scenarios, men with girls that they bought. And I got angry inside, and I forgot that my life message was God loves you with an everlasting love, for the moment. All I wanted to do was give that man some of my full ministry, a real good dose of it. And my heart broke for the girl. But then the Lord spoke to me. He said, “You know, he’s just as much of a victim. He’s a victim, too.

SID: Sure.

PATRICIA: And He started to reveal words of knowledge to my heart as to what had happened in his life. And He says, “What are you going to do about it?” And I thought, well I’m overwhelmed. I went to bed that night. I was still overwhelmed. The next day we go to Pattaya. It was the worst. It’s a sex tourism city. You can walk the streets and there’s bars with sex menus there that people from all over the world, sex tourists go and buy young girls for sex. I sat in one of those bars the second day I was there and sat and listened to a girl’s sad story of how she had grown up in a community with, she was happy, and then got sold into the bar by her parents. I was just broken hearted. There were tears welling up in her eyes. And I went back to my room. I said, “God, I’m just overwhelmed. I don’t know what to do. This problem is too big.” And He said, “You can do something about it, and you get to do something about it.” So He gave us an idea, one idea. And it was February 14, Valentine’s Day. So we worked with a local church in the area. We went into one of the brothel bars and asked the brothel owner, “Hey, can we do some singing for you? It’s Valentine’s Day. Love songs.” We just failed to tell him it was Jesus love songs.

SID:  In a bar.

PATRICIA: So we gave them free entertainment for the night. We went in there and we sat with the bar girls, and we bought them a Coca-Cola or something, just because we had to pay something in order to be there. And we started sharing with them about Jesus. Well then I asked the brothel owner, I said, “Oh, I’m getting some words about people’s future from God. Can I get up on the mike here and give those words?” And she said, “Are you a fortune teller?” And I said, “No, not quite like that.” But I said, “I do know God and He knows everyone’s future and I’ve got words.” She said, “Okay, go for it.” So I started giving these words and I said, “If anyone of you want words for your future come up here and I’ll give them to you.” There was a lineup of people waiting to get their destiny words. And that night, we got people saved. We had an altar call in the bar, in the brothel, and people came to the Lord.

SID: Listen now. That is normal. That’s what Jesus would have done. That is normal according to the Bible.

PATRICIA: And that is changing the atmosphere.

SID: Okay. As you changed the atmosphere in Thailand and in Cambodia, we do the same work. Tell me some of the things God is showing you to do.

PATRICIA: Oh, it’s just been amazing. There’s multiple levels. But one of the things that He revealed when we were in Cambodia, there’s a little city called Poipet and it’s right on the border where a lot of children get smuggled across with traffickers, sometimes put in the bottom of carts. And the Lord revealed to me as I was doing a prayer walk there one day, He said, “One of the issues that is fueling the sex trade is systemic poverty. People can’t afford to feed their children. What are you going to do?”

SID: So that’s why they sell them.

PATRICIA: They sell the children so that, you know, and a lot of them don’t know they’re going into the sex trade. They’re lied to by the traffickers. So they think they’re going to give their children a better future by getting them educated, put them in a rich family over in Thailand, or something. But that’s not what happens to them. They get sold into brothels or sent by containers over to western nations to be sold in sex auctions. It’s a horrible thing. So God says, “What are you going to do about the poverty issue?” So I went into prayer and He gave me one idea. The first idea was to buy a bag of laundry soap. And I approached a Thai woman who had made [?] for a living. And I said, “I’d like to start you in a business. Would you like that?” She said, “I would really like that.” And I said, “Well, here’s a bag of soap. Let’s open up a business called “Purity Laundry Service” and I said, “I’m going to make up some order forms on my computer so people can order your laundry. We’ve got people in outreach coming, they need their laundry done. And you can pray over all the laundry and clean it.” We led her to the Lord and taught her how to pray. And I said, “It’s going to be really holy laundry, Purity Laundry Service.” And I said, “Eventually we’re going to lead for your business to get into the local hotels. You can wash the sheets. Who knows what’s happening on those sheets. But you’re going to wash them and declare the purity of God over them.” In no time at all, that little business took off and she was hiring three workers, and then up to five workers who were making a living for their families instead of having to sell children.

SID: But let me ask you this question, though. You’re a nurse. You’re not a businesswoman. How are you starting businesses all over these countries, rescuing these people, getting them saved, getting them discipled and putting them in business to be lights to their community? How can you do this?

PATRICIA: All things in Christ are easy. They’re very, very easy. And you know, God spoke to me one day and Jesus said that he was about his Father’s business. It says that in the scripture. He didn’t say, I’m about my Father’s ministry. And I took of that. And I thought, okay, if there’s a business anointing available, I want it. God, teach me how to move in this business anointing.

SID: I want you right now, because of time, to do what you normally do in these countries or in your home, or in your community, I want to decree right now over the people watching.

PATRICIA: All right. I decree over you that all things are possible in Christ. I decree over you that there’s going to be a shift in your life into an accelerated creativity where you can bring light into your darkness. There is nothing impossible for you. You will triumph in all things because that is what the Word promises you. The Lord says in His Word that you are going to partner with Him to transform the world for His glory. You are going to bring salvation to those who do not know Him. You are going to see shifts in your health, in your finances, in your strength, in every dimension of your life, because that is what is you’re called to. And I see actually right now in the spirit, I see someone who is watching this, there is going to be a shift in your home. You’re going to create peace in your household because you have a teenage son who has been raising hell in your home. And you’ve been distressed. You were crying. Even before you put this program on, you were crying. But the Lord says He’s going to teach you how to take the authority and shift the atmosphere in your home so that there’s no more conflict, there’s no more contention or strife, or rebellion, but there’s peace because you have the power resident within you, in Christ Jesus within you to change the atmosphere in your home.

SID: And I say to you, anything Patricia can do, you can do better.

PATRICIA: Amen
