THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO.................

THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO.................


When I was a lost, needy puppy, about 14, I was starring out the window of a car, I felt no connection to anyone, never really had, not even my own mother. I was in a car with my sister traveling through the most beautiful mountaintops. I distinctly remember God talking to me inside, that deep inner voice, saying..... THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO.

I had no clue what that meant and totally forgot about it. Sometimes a spirit would come on me when I watched THE SOUND OF MUSIC, and I would remember that sentence, THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO. Well you know the tragedy's of my life, but when I met Gene I lived in this spirit before we got married.... THERE IS SOMETHING I'M SUPPOSED TO DO. It was a glorious time, but with familiarity that voice gets drown, and living in that spirit diminished. Gene spoke to me one night when we were getting serious, I don't remember much of what he said, but I remember one thing, He said THERE IS SOMETHING I'M SUPPOSED TO DO. Well, I was praying the other night and the Holy Spirit spoke to me, THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO.

Believe it or not, I can think, even married to Gene, that my life is very purposeless, meaningless, and insignificant. I realize most people might not see that in me, but it's true. At times I feel useless, like I'm not doing anything of significance that really means anything in the realm of eternity. I can really get depressed, and when we suffer persecution and rejection that voice tries to speak to me. But I have really been energized and felt much power and victory, and overcoming sense, since I heard that voice again a couple of weeks............ I WANT YOU TO LIVE LIKE THERE IS SOMETHING IMPORTANT I WANT YOU TO DO. Now if I ever do anything or not that God deems important isn't really the issue, maybe He's imparting power, His spirit of self control to me. After I married Gene, I heard God's voice tell me, "you got ready for one wedding, now I want you to get ready for another." Maybe that's the thing that's important that He wants me to do. Get ready for His appearing, living in a spirit of hope and expectation. Children get all excited when they have an event to live for. I remember how exciting it was getting ready for summer camp, then school again. That hope and expectation of getting to do something, to go somewhere. I remember even after marrying Gene I would get excited when we were going to go somewhere, do something........ ministry..... WE TOOK ON A SPIRIT OF HOPE AND EXPECTATION AND HAD THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT REALLY BLOOM IN OUR LIVES. But you know we should live in THAT SPIRIT ALL THE TIME. Not living for an event, but never knowing when God wants us available BECAUSE HE HAS SOMETHING FOR US TO DO. When we are drunk on the cares of this life... Luke 21 the DAY comes upon us unaware. SO WE CAN, AND SHOULD TAKE ON A SPIRIT OF WATCHING, WAITING, HOPE, EXPECTATION.......... THAT LEADS US TO SANCTIFY OURSELVES LIKE THERE IS AN IMPORTANT EVENT ABOUT TO HAPPEN IN OUR LIVES. THERE REALLY IS YOU KNOW. The devil wants us without vision and rotting in hopelessness, despair, and feeling like our lives are totally insignificant. And how many women cover that up with pride rather than having faith God can BE THE SPARK UNTO THEIR SOUL AND THE VISION FOR THEIR LIFE! LIVE LIKE "THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO DO" Eat for strength not drunkenness so you will be ready!
