To Whom It May Concern:
Our relationship with Patricia King began about four years ago, and we have been honored to watch her blossom in the calling
that the Lord has placed on her life. Patricia walks in the prophetic, an oftentimes misunderstand function, yet so highly
valued in the Word of God. To prophesy, to speak forth a word from God is unarguably a great responsibility. Rev 19:10
says: “Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, ‘No, don't worship me. For I am a servant of God, just
like you and other brothers and sisters who testify of their faith in Jesus. Worship God. For the essence of prophecy is to give
a clear witness for Jesus.'”
As we read in the Word there were many times when a revelation would come forth and a prophetic word would be shared, but it
took time for the full understanding of the prophecy to be manifested. Some will understand right away, others may not grasp the
concept for years. God, in His own timing, knows when a person is “ready.” This is true with those who are gifted in the
prophetic. Not everyone will accept and be able to acknowledge what is being brought forth. It may be due to them not being
spiritually mature enough or it just may not be God's time for their understanding. It may be possible that they have areas in
their lives such as unforgiveness, a religious spirit or pride that closes them off from the fullness of what God wants to reveal
to them. It goes without question that God has been moving in Patricia's life and ministry to reach the unsaved, and He has
chosen the avenue of prophecy as a means to reach the lost. Using her own words from Light Belongs in the Darkness she states:
“For sure, the tangible power of God would increase if each Christian committed to daily prayer, uncompromised devotion, righteous
living and a radical, focused outreach in the power of His love, mercy and miracle-working anointing.”
The word “radical” is cause for alarm for some people. And, yet, wasn't Jesus, Himself, a radical? He healed on the Sabbath,
kicked the tax payers out of the synagogue, fed thousands with two fish and five loaves of bread, walked on water and turned water
into wine – were these things considered “normal?” And yet, “The truth is, anyone who believes in me will do the same works
I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.” (John 14:12) So our response should
really be “Why aren't we seeing more radical things happening?” As long as “what” is being accomplished is Biblical, God is at
liberty to change the “how.” Is Patricia King in the harvest field saving the lost? Does she encourage and edify the body?
Do miracles happen and are people set free and healed? Is God using her to usher in the Kingdom of God here on Earth?
The answer is “yes.”
God is meeting the needs of those who are hungry—they are hungry in spirit, soul and body. These needs are being met by prophetic
evangelism. I praise Patricia for taking the bull by the horns, so to speak, and raising up and training others to stand beside
her in this mission. The outcome is in the fruit—and the harvest is ripe. Areas of question have arisen regarding the “glory.”
One could spend a lifetime studying the glory and all it encompasses. Patricia has answered the call to provide Glory School teaching.
His glory is what we strive to enter into and have emanating from us. We call it forth, we seek out the doors of heaven, and we
rejoice in God's willingness to have us enter in. God has given Patricia insight into this area and what she has written, shared and
taught is timely and enlightening. Once again, the responsibility is on us to be open to the move of God and “how” He wants to
disclose revelation knowledge.
Patricia has a gift for opening people's hearts to wanting more—more of the gifts, more revelation, and more of the presence of God.
I have been blessed to glean much from her ministry and her teaching. One cannot help but be convicted when we read of her outreach
to the downtrodden and the forgotten of society. There is always so much more that can be done and souls that can be saved. Yes, she
is a woman on a mission and time is of the essence. I pray a shield of protection around her that the fiery darts of the enemy cannot
penetrate. She is raising the sword of the spirit and out of her mouth comes the Word of God. It is without question that God will
greet Patricia one day and say: “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
