Please pray for Patrick. I had formerly mentored this dear brother. He has terrible hurts from childhood abuses. His dad verbally scorns and humiliates him. But his giftings are astounding. God has truly blessed Patrick in spite of his history of pain. He carries a distinct prophetic mantle and frequently has dreams and visions. He is a photographer and I can see God's viewpoint in his work. Patrick is currently living in deliberate sin. His eye has become evil and I can see envy and perversion entering into him everyday.
"But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness" (Luke 11:34).
I've stepped aside from Patrick during this time. It deeply grieves me to see him flounder like this. The enemy has complicated the situation. Patrick is involved with a girl named Beth. The relationship is unhealthy. It has come to my attention that Patrick believes I am "praying against" their relationship. His passions are so consumed by this right now that he views me as a threat. Patrick is uttering curses against me. I haven't prayed a thing for this brother except that he wake up to righteousness and that he would have a fresh revelation of the riches of goodness that God has bestowed on him. I understand any repentance is on the basis of God's goodness (Romans 2:4). But he has become so unstable and his thoughts have become so paranoid that I believe he could be dangerous to himself or others. The deep hurt in his heart has constained him to such a position of desperation. I feel sorry for him. But I am angry at the same time. It dumbfounds me to see someone turn so quickly from darkness to light.
"And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth" (Job 29:17).
