January 31, 2019. Spring is soon springing and birds are singing. This change will be for the better. Say goodbye soon to winter’s cold temperatures and chilling winds. The season will change and the warm air of Spring will bring new growth. It is time to forget the past while anticipating the brightness of brand new days. Let us then join in with the soon coming Spring and all the new and renewed things God is bringing to our lives.
Mark 4:28-29 (AMP) “The earth produces [acting] by itself-first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the grain is ripe and permits, immediately he sends forth [the reapers] and puts in the sickle, because the harvest stands ready.” Ras Robinson
January 31, 2019. I AM sure by now that you have noticed how loyal dogs are to their owners. Though dogs are sometimes mistreated, neglected or unloved, they have a special way of coming back again and again to display affection to their human masters. So too, is My love for you! At times I received ignoring from you akin to the way people have ignored their dogs, My devoted love for you is unending. Love like I have loved you.
Nehemiah 9:17b (NLT) “But you are a God of forgiveness, gracious and merciful, slow to become angry, and rich in unfailing love.” Kevin Robinson
January 31, 2019. I see the atrophy that affects you. Atrophy is the wasting away or withering away. In your physical body this occurs to muscles because of lack of exercise. Be on guard always and do not become atrophied in your spirit. I have been very clear in My Word to describe the spiritual exercise needed. Give attention to My Word and use it for exhortation and teaching for yourself and others. Cultivate My spiritual gifts that are within you.
1 Timothy 4:7-8 (NASB) “But have nothing to do with worldly fables fit only for old women. On the other hand, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness; for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” Jonas Bohlin
January 30, 2019. Fill your mind with joyful things. Bless anyone you can. Look for pretty things. Look for ways to help someone else. Call someone you can encourage. Be sure you are taking time to rest. These are the kinds of things that build you up almost without you even realizing it. These things do not tear you down. You have been in a bit of a hole in the last little bit. You want to be going up not down.
Psalm 18:33 (AMP) “He makes my feet like hinds’ feet [able to stand firmly or make progress on the dangerous heights of testing and trouble]; He sets me securely upon my high places.” Bev Robinson
January 30, 2019. Let me encourage you to rise up and above all the hullabaloo and hubbub this world and all of its many enticements has to offer. You’re experiencing information overload. You were not designed to carry as much burden as you are carrying. I’m not saying you are feeble, but your cares and concerns are taking their toll. Humble yourself and relinquish a portion of your encumbrances over to me and others. Let Me be your burden bearer.
Matthew 11:28-30 (NLT) “Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” Kevin Robinson
January 30, 2019. It is time now to be released from the struggle and the pain. In order to fulfill My plan in your life, you must lay this burden down. This situation may not be changing, but your response to it CAN change. Receive the peace that guards your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus. Know that the Anointed One endured the cross with joy because of the end result. Choose to walk in peace and joy.
Hebrews 12:2b (TPT) “His example is this: Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be his, he endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God!” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 29, 2019. Don’t allow your attitude to get negative. I know there are some reasons, but you know what to do to keep from letting what happened affect you. Hide yourself in Me. There is no need to try acting happy or try acting anyway that is not real. I AM here for you at all times, but especially at times when you don’t feel like doing what must be done. You will be surprised at what happens.
Psalm 61:3 (AMP) “For You have been a shelter and a refuge for me, a strong tower against the adversary.” Bev Robinson
January 29, 2019. Witch hunting. Some were literally put to death because they braved the sacred status quo. How dare individuals push the limits of religious norms? Unfortunately, no one is exempt from atrocious and vicious attacks. Certain spiritual leaders come to mind who have been subject to ridicule and mockery. Religion doesn’t like people pushing the boundaries when it comes to My Spirit. To whom will you have to give an account? Dare to have outlandish obedience. Be brave!
1 Corinthians 16:13 (TPT) “Remember to stay alert and hold firmly to all that you believe. Be mighty and full of courage.” Kevin Robinson
January 29, 2019. Have you forgotten the instructions I gave you? You wonder why you have not heard My voice in the recent days. I patiently wait for your action and obedience to My Word that that has already been delivered to you. You heard the word and you received the word as a true word from Me, but you have not put into action what you heard. So, I wait, watching you as the one I love.
1 Timothy 1:18 (NASB) “This command I entrust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you fight the good fight.” Jonas Bohlin
January 28, 2019. This is a slow time, but don’t allow yourself to slack off. You will regret it later, because events are going to speed up quickly, and you will be left way behind. Stay alert not anxiously alert, just be on top of what is going on around you. Keep your mind active and watch for the change. It will be subtle, but not slow. You don’t want to miss it because if you do, later you will have a problem.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NASB) “There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven” Bev Robinson
January 28, 2019. It’s time you step up. For years you have sat under excellent and proficient tutelage of My Word. You have been privileged to see and hear sound biblical instruction. Don’t become like the River Jordan that flows into the Dead Sea. Because it has no outlet, the continuous river flow becomes salty and bitter. Rise up and give teachings like those preceding you. You have been teachable, instruct others too! Don’t abandon your knowledge.
2 Timothy 2:2 (NOG) “Take the things you heard me say in front of many other witnesses and pass them on to faithful people who are also capable of teaching others.” Kevin Robinson
January 28, 2019. You have been learning at a “lightening quick” speed. You have been doing well to study and absorb. But I tell you, now is the time to implement! It is one thing to know and it is another thing to know and act! Now is the time for action. Knowledge will remain simply knowledge until acted upon. Once acted upon, it becomes faith for faith without works is dead! Act on your knowledge and change your world.
James 1:23-25 (ESV) “For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 26, 2019. “How can you hear Me?” is a question you have asked many times. You want so badly to hear Me. I know your heart. You are hearing Me a lot more than you think you are. You are going about your daily living and I am speaking to you from behind. When you experience a lack of peace, that is the time you may question if you are hearing Me. Until then let My peace rule your heart.
Colossians 3:15 (AMP) “And let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state] to which as [members of Christ’s] one body you were also called [to live]. And be thankful (appreciative), [giving praise to God always].” Bev Robinson
January 26, 2019. A vein of falsehood has come into your camp. Some would call it a misrepresentation of My truth. You associate yourself with those who pick and choose who they will associate themselves with. You claim to be innocent of coupling yourself with the so-called holier-than-thou of today. Don’t let money or lack thereof dictate your close companionships. You say that’s not me, think again! Repent now, or I will remind you of this if no change occurs!
Luke 16:14-15 (NASB) “Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things and were scoffing at Him. And He said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God.” Kevin Robinson
January 26, 2019. There is a circumstance in your life where you feel guilty and responsible for something that is beyond your control. I say to you, “Do not fret or concern yourself with things that are beyond your control. They are not beyond My control and I am actively working on your behalf to bring about a resolution that will bring peace to you and will bring honor to Me. The resolution of this may come from an unexpected source.”
Isaiah 64:4 (NASB) “For from days of old they have not heard or perceived by ear, Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him.” Jonas Bohlin
January 25, 2019. News is coming that is a little unsettling. It is about someone you care for. It will involve money, time and action. Seek counsel in what to do about this. Don’t move without conferring with Me and with good counsel. It won’t be as bad as you first think. So don’t worry at all. You will know ahead of the time that action is required, but don’t put off seeking Me and others. It’s challenging.
James 3:17 (NASB) “But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy. And the seed whose fruit is righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.” Bev Robinson
January 25, 2019. You have prayed repeatedly about a difficult issue, knowing someone needs to deal with it. Some egregious errors have been made that need to be managed before many get offended. It is up to you to diffuse the problem. Seek Me and ask for My wisdom in handling the matter. If need be, take upright individuals with you to help correct the behavior. It is enormously essential to manage what is going on.
Hebrews 12:11 (AMPC) “For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems grievous and painful; but afterwards it yields a peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it [a harvest of fruit which consists in righteousness-in conformity to God’s will in purpose, thought, and action, resulting in right living and right standing with God].” Kevin Robinson
January 25, 2019. You cannot do without Me, but I cannot do without you! I have given My Good News to your charge; you are My hands and feet upon the earth. Mankind are My messengers being made a little lower than the angels. Why are you messing around with things that are beneath you? Have you forgotten your power, your crown, your glory? Return to Me; purify yourselves and get back on track and share My Good News.
Hebrews 2:6-8 (NIV) “‘What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him? You made them a little lower than the angels; you crowned them with glory and honor and put everything under their feet.’ In putting everything under them, God left nothing that is not subject to them.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 24, 2019. Something bad will happen. Many will think it’s very bad. But you are going to overcome because you don’t see it as really bad. You don’t think along the line that bad things are going to happen. You think along the lines that good things are going to happen. You are convinced that I AM good and, when something is bad, you know that in the long run it will turn out good. And it does.
Romans 8:38-39 (NASB) “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Bev Robinson
January 24, 2019. Be careful of your hardline approaches towards others regarding their spiritual, political and philosophical sentiments. The last thing society needs is for Christians to exhibit a hypercritical demeanor toward believers and nonbelievers about their approaches to living. Thank Me for your living in a society where you have the liberty to express yourself. You too were once a wanderer and look where you are now! Let kindness be your earmarked evidence of My immeasurable empathy and understanding.
Romans 2:4 (MSG) “You didn’t think, did you, that just by pointing your finger at others you would distract God from seeing all your misdoings and from coming down on you hard? Or did you think that because he’s such a nice God, he’d let you off the hook? Better think this one through from the beginning. God is kind, but he’s not soft. In kindness he takes us firmly by the hand and leads us into a radical life-change.” Kevin Robinson
January 24, 2019. You settled for less than the best that I have for you. No one is a substitute for the life available through Me. There is no substitute for purity in your life that is required by Me; there is no substitute for trusting Me for all that you need, and there is no substitute for the faith that causes you to ask Me for anything. My child, do not settle for counterfeit when the Authentic is yours!
John 14:6 (NASB) “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” Jonas Bohlin
January 23, 2019. Someone will soon tell you a secret that they have been harboring for a long time. They feel uncomfortable in telling this because it is incriminating and they feel they may be judged. You won’t judge because that is not your nature. You are a kind loving person and people feel safe with you. You have been forgiven much and you want to help others know they too can be forgiven. It will help them to forgive themselves.
Luke 7:47-48 (AMP) “Therefore I tell you, her sins, many [as they are], are forgiven her-because she has loved much. But he who is forgiven little loves little. And He said to her, Your sins are forgiven!” Bev Robinson
January 23, 2019. It is that time of year when influenza rears its ugly head. The argument rises about whether or not to be vaccinated. As a believer you are subject to all sorts of fleshly and spiritual attacks. Because of my power and strength, you have immunity for those spiritual attacks. That immunity protects you like a vaccine protects you from the flu. Stand strong with My might. Keep your resistance high through repentance, submission, scripture memorization, meditation, prayer and Bible study.
James 4:7-8 (TPT) “So then, surrender to God. Stand up to the devil and resist him and he will turn and run away from you. Move your heart closer and closer to God, and he will come even closer to you. But make sure you cleanse your life, you sinners, and keep your heart pure and stop doubting.” Kevin Robinson
January 23, 2019. The winds of change are here. First in the natural and then the spiritual; better yet first in the spiritual and then in the natural! As you see and hear the effects of the wind, know that I have already started the change that should happen. You have been patiently waiting and now it is here. Although you may not understand this season, I do. Patiently wait for the change to be completed and understanding will follow.
Psalm 104:4 (NLT) “The winds are your messengers; flames of fire are your servants.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 22, 2019. I know you feel like giving up, but don’t do it. Draw your strength from Me. I AM the only one who can cause the cessation of pain. There will be a breakthrough even though now it feels like it is nowhere to be found. What you are going through will get better . There is help on the way that you cannot see or imagine. I know you are in a bad place. I give you strength.
Philippians 4:13 (ESV) “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” Bev Robinson
January 22, 2019. For whom are you doing your spiritual benevolence? A religious, somewhat pious mindset has crept up on you. Yes, I know the original thrust of what you are doing has wonderful intentions and indeed helps others. But now you are looking for the approval of people and for vain recognition. Be about humility and be unassuming. Giving, goodwill and being charitable are wonderful. See to it that I AM glorified. Be a cheerful giver who needs nothing in return.
Matthew 6:2-4 (NASB) “So when you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.“ Kevin Robinson
January 22, 2019. There is something you know you have to do. It has been right in front of you for a while. I tell you, today is the day to take the first step. I know you are afraid you might fail, or you just have not wanted to start. Start today! It will be a challenge at first, but as you go you will experience fulfillment like you have not felt in a long time. Start!
Hebrews 12:11 (AMP) “For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].” Jonas Bohlin
January 21, 2019. Circumstances will reverse quickly, but stay calm and peaceful. Because circumstances will get back to normal and will be even better just as quickly. You are noticing small changes in appearance right now, but not really realizing the importance of what is happening. The reversal is to let you know you need to act when the small changes occur. All is good, but this will be a learning experience to let you know how to handle small changes.
Deuteronomy 31:6 (ESV) “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” Bev Robinson
January 21, 2019. You can feel it in your innermost being. The suspense has you on the edge of your seat. I AM glad you are hoping for more of Me and you will not be disappointed. You are on the cusp of experiencing things like you have not witnessed before. Dreamlike answers to prayers will be observed. Stay focused on keeping Me first and foremost in all things and let your faith rise to new heights. Exciting days await.
Ephesians 3:20 (TPT) “Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination! He will outdo them all, for his miraculous power constantly energizes you.” Kevin Robinson
January 21, 2019. Your soul is longing for good news. You are a bit desperate for things to change. I say, be at peace my child with your situation. When you release control in the natural, it allows My supernatural to work. As long as you push fleshly solutions, My spiritual solutions stay at bay. Relax, trust and know that I AM God and I have good solutions for you. Let Me work and show you true results – Selah!
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NASB) “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 19, 2019. Now is not the time to make a decision. There will be a time but it isn’t now. More facts need to be gathered. You don’t want to jump too quickly and have regrets later. For many reasons, the decision does not have to be made now and you will see why later. Blessings will accompany the actions when the decision is made. I have been waiting on you. This is your time to wait on Me.
Isaiah 30:18 (ESV) “Therefore the LORD waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the LORD is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.” Bev Robinson
January 19, 2019. No one, including Jesus himself, knows the literal date or time of His return. However, you can know the season. Fulfillment of biblical prophecies continue to occur at breakneck speed. I encourage you to know and understand the feasts and Jewish holy days. Study them inside and out to better comprehend their significance. It will give you a deeper understanding of why certain events happened and why they will continue to take place.
Matthew 24:44 (TPT) “So always be ready, alert, and prepared, because at an hour when you’re not expecting him, the Son of Man will come.” Kevin Robinson
January 19, 2019. I have placed high importance on learning of Me. When you entered My Kingdom, you entered as a child who had a hunger to learn. Continue with a childlike attitude toward learning about Me. By what means do you learn? You cannot “just” absorb My ways as you live your life. Purpose in your heart to learn. Study Scripture on your own and learn from others through wise teaching. My Spirit will lead you to purposeful learning.
Proverbs 2:1-5 (NASB) “My son, if you will receive my words And treasure my commandments within you, Make your ear attentive to wisdom, Incline your heart to understanding; For if you cry for discernment, Lift your voice for understanding; If you seek her as silver And search for her as for hidden treasures; Then you will discern the fear of the LORD And discover the knowledge of God.” Jonas Bohlin
January 18, 2019. You thought by now events would slow down. But they seemed to have had a burst of energy and here we go again. But you still need to measure your time and energy. Be sure you get enough rest at night and don’t slack on your quiet time with Me. Leave some time to do nothing but think. Think good thoughts. Getting all this in is hard, but it is good for your soul, spirit and body.
Philippians 4:8 (ESV) “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” Bev Robinson
January 18, 2019. All through the Bible, there are instances where the word “therefore” comes into play. You have to see what it is “there for.” It signals that you cannot fully understand a verse or passage without understanding what precedes it. Jesus made arguments to solidify messages He was trying to convey. Your eternity hinges not on your ability to live out a “therefore”, but on Jesus’ righteous life on your behalf. May the “therefores” illuminate more for you.
Isaiah 53:11-12 (NKJV) “He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many, for He shall bear their iniquities. Therefore, I will divide Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the strong, because He poured out His soul unto death, and He was numbered with the transgressors, and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.” Kevin Robinson
January 18, 2019. Some of you are treading water. You have been treading for quite a while and you are getting tired. You have been going nowhere and barely keeping your head out of water. Simply reach out your arms and begin forward movement. You were never meant to be stagnant. Treading is surviving. Swimming is gain. I have many things for you to do; you will never reach your potential by simply maintaining. On your mark, get set, go!
Deuteronomy 1:6 (ESV) “The Lord our God said to us in Horeb, ‘You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 17, 2019. I AM the one who knows you just as you are. I know your thoughts and I know which thoughts have become sin. I even see the pattern of your thoughts before you have them. I don’t condemn or belittle you. I want you to tell Me and let Me cleanse you when you recognize your judgmental thoughts. I AM closer than your brother. I AM your friend. I shed My blood for you, to cleanse you.
Proverbs 18:24 (AMP) “The man of many friends [a friend of all the world] will prove himself a bad friend, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Bev Robinson
January 17, 2019. You have questioned what specifically is your calling. To others it is clear because it is something in which you already walk. Whether it is service, administration, mercy, etc., understand the parameters of what brings you peace. It has become your lifelong passion. Your calling is your mission. Freely display what I have imparted unto you. Don’t see your calling as an occupation, but rather a gifting for encouraging My body. Determinedly advance My Kingdom.
Romans 11:29 (AMPC) “For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable. [He never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call.]” Kevin Robinson
January 17, 2019. You have waited long enough to act on what I told you. You have calculated, thought, prayed, and even sought the counsel of those you consider your most trusted allies. For what are you waiting? You have heard Me softly tell you that you have heard Me correctly and that the time is right. When you act on this, you will immediately have a release of My peace. You will see My power manifest in your situation!
Deuteronomy 1:8 (NASB) “‘See, I have placed the land before you; go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to give to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to them and their descendants after them.'” Jonas Bohlin
January 16, 2019. Frustration is rising again. It almost makes you sick at your stomach. You know allowing it to remain will be debilitating. You aren’t sure what to do. My child, the first thing is to seek Me. Speak to Me about what is going on. I AM your best friend. Remember how I have brought you out of similar situations in the past. I will do the same again. Trust and obey.
Psalm 105:4-5 (NLT2) “Search for the LORD and for his strength; continually seek him. Remember the wonders he has performed, his miracles, and the rulings he has given.” Bev Robinson
January 16, 2019. A daunting challenge for you is allowing the past to remain in the past. You find comfort in living in and under what once was. The bygones have become dead weight in your attempts to move forward with purpose. Many things of the past were indeed glorious, while others not so much. Push through. Move forward with ambition to make headway for My Kingdom’s sake. Be willing to be uncomfortable and let My newness overtake you. Progress unreservedly.
Philippians 3:13-14 (AMPC) “I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward.” Kevin Robinson
January 16, 2019. If you know to do right, do it, because you never know if you’re entertaining angels. Have you ever left a situation in which you helped a stranger and you wondered if perhaps that was an angel? My angels are ever present and will always point you in the right direction. I send them on missions to accomplish My word in the earth. Open your mind to these possibilities. Angels are My messengers sent for your benefit — welcome them.
Psalm 103:20 (NASB) “Bless the Lord, you His angels, mighty in strength, who perform His word, obeying the voice of His word!” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 15, 2019. I AM getting ready to give you new understanding about your words and thoughts. I have stirred your interest in this for a long time now. I AM pleased that you have been incorporating what you have learned. Now is time for another upload. It will bring you information again that will help you learn more about Me and how I have designed you to operate the way that will bring you great benefit. Apply yourself.
Isaiah 55:11 (AMP) “So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” Bev Robinson
January 15, 2019. I want to encourage you to find individuals who will challenge you in a good way. Don’t let this be a difficult issue for you. You already know who the insightful people are who surround you. There are passionate personalities who yearn to participate in profound studies and discussions about My word. I know you long for My truth’s to be revealed to you. Quite often it is through the knowledge of others that you learn and make progress.
2 Timothy 2:15 (AMPC) “Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.” Kevin Robinson
January 15, 2019. The relationship you desire with Me is yours now. Step into the arms of My protection, provision and blessing. When you engage Me with a mutual, intimate embrace, many of the challenges you have experienced will begin to dissipate. My relationship with you causes that earthly relationship you have longed for to become a reality. That relationship is worthwhile and is worthy of your first step to be restored to that valuable relationship.
Ephesians 4:1-3 (NASB) “Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Jonas Bohlin
January 14, 2019. You are exactly where you should be. It feels like decline, but it isn’t. Instead it is progress. You are looking though natural eyes. I want you to look through supernatural, spiritual eyes. When you do, you will see from My perspective. Your reaction will be different when you look and see from My perspective. It will be peaceful, and kind. There will be fruit of the Spirit. All the fruit will be on exhibit.
Galatians 5:22-23 (MSG) “But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard-things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely. Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way.” Bev Robinson
January 14, 2018. You think that because you are dealing with a bothersome person, you want them to change and modify their behavior. Have you ever been able to alter the behavior of another? Probably a child’s conduct is the only one where that works and even that comes with a struggle. What you can change is your mindset to one of grace and understanding. You ask how long must that continue? I say it will last as long as it called today!
Colossians 3:12-13 (NLT) “Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.” Kevin Robinson
January 14, 2019. There are some things that you are making too hard. This particular issue keeps rolling around in your mind. Simplicity comes by stepping out and putting some kind of action with it. You are overthinking the situation – simply begin. It will not be as hard or laborious as you think. Inaction has brought you to a halt. Action will cause this situation to flourish. I will bring to your mind what to do first, so do it!
James 4:17 (NIV) “If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 12, 2019. What has worked in the past is not working now. Do what needs to be done. I know you are not accustomed to doing it a different way, but nevertheless you need to do it differently. Stop and rest and you will be able to hear Me clearer. Don’t rush into something without seeking Me. That will be a huge waste of time. Change is not always easy. I know the best route. Keep seeking Me.
Deuteronomy 4:29 (AMP) “But if from there you will seek (inquire for and require as necessity) the Lord your God, you will find Him if you [truly] seek Him with all your heart [and mind] and soul and life.” Bev Robinson
January 12, 2019. Just because you have the right to do something, doesn’t mean it is in your best interest to act upon that right. Do you really have any rights that have not been granted by Me? Use your freedom to build up one another. Speak and act the best toward others even though you have the right to do otherwise. You’ve asked Me for My wisdom so implement what I AM revealing to you. Live by what’s morally correct.
1 Corinthians 10:23-24 (TPT) “You say, “Under grace there are no rules and we’re free to do anything we please.” Not exactly. Because not everything promotes growth in others. Your slogan, “We’re allowed to do anything we choose,” may be true-but not everything causes the spiritual advancement of others. So don’t always seek what is best for you at the expense of another.” Kevin Robinson
January 12, 2019. My children you do not have the luxury of being offended. There will always be offensive people in your life, but I have called you to rise above that offense and live at peace with all men. The key is to nip offense in the bud and forgive and ask for forgiveness when you sense something wrong between you and another individual. “I am sorry that I hurt you,” are very powerful words of healing. Rise above!
Romans 12:18 (NASB) “If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men.” Jonas Bohlin
January 11, 2019. You often have the sense that you need to be doing more and being more. This is something you have a hard time overcoming. Don’t let this plague you anymore. You are doing and being exactly what you need to do and be. It is your way to help as much as you can. This is an admirable personal quality. But be at peace now. There is nothing else for you to be or do.
John 14:27 (MOFF) “Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you; I give it not as the world gives its ‘Peace!’ Let not your hearts be disquieted or timid.” Bev Robinson
January 11, 2019. Aren’t you grateful for the wonderful memories your mind possesses? You have so many different mental facets to draw from. Cherish the ability I have given you to recall people, places, times and events across a wide spectrum of days, years and decades. Cultivate these remembrances on a regular basis. Be a story teller. Tell of the wondrous acts and deeds I have allowed you to experience. Give Me glory for all I have done for you.
Psalm 66:16 (NASB) “Come and hear, all who fear God, and I will tell of what He has done for my soul.” Kevin Robinson
January 11, 2019. Are you using the power of My Word for your situation? If not, you have forgotten one of your spiritual weapons. You have not been created to fight your battles alone. Use My Word and watch Your situation change! My Word is alive and will produce effects if given a chance; My heavenly hosts even perform the work. Begin to think on, utter and believe My Word. This is the action of faith and it produces fruit.
Isaiah 55:11 (NLT) “It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 10, 2019. Don’t quit now. You are almost at the end of the task. It is tempting to start something else, but don’t do that. Finish what you started. Then there will be uninterrupted time to begin something else. You don’t want to be working and turn around and see a big job yet to be finished. That can cause frustration and not get anything finished. Work and rest, work and rest. You will get your present job done.
Ecclesiastes 3:9-10 (NASB) “What profit is there to the worker from that in which he toils? I have seen the task which God has given the sons of men with which to occupy themselves.” Bev Robinson
January 10, 2019. I know you don’t like to admit your weakness in front of others. Most people like to present an image that is above and beyond what they truly possess. When you go out with someone, you take painstaking efforts to assure yourself and them that everything is good. It is okay to be weak with others. It is when you’re weak that I AM strong. Let me use your self-identified confines and limitations for My glory.
2 Corinthians 12:10 (TPT) “So I’m not defeated by my weakness, but delighted! For when I feel my weakness and endure mistreatment-when I’m surrounded with troubles on every side and face persecution because of my love for Christ-I am made yet stronger. For my weakness becomes a portal to God’s power.” Kevin Robinson
January 10, 2019. Rest for your body and your mind are of utmost importance. You have allowed unrest in your mind to cause unrest in your body. Come to Me; find the rest that I have for you. Your effectiveness in your thoughts and actions depends on the rest that you receive. There is only one source of the perfect rest that you desire, Me! Allow Me to bring peace in your mind which will allow peace in your body.
Matthew 11:28 (NASB) “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” Jonas Bohlin
January 9, 2019. Don’t give up. I know at times you feel like you are nagging and you are close to doing so. Back off when you feel like you are getting in the flesh, but what you are doing is good. Nagging is very close to perseverance. Just don’t step over the line. Listen closely to Me and be willing to change in an instant. Someone needs to stay close to what is happening and right now it is you.
Romans 5:3-5 (NASB) “And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” Bev Robinson
January 9, 2019. Ecclesiastes 1:9 says, “there is nothing new under the sun.” That could give you reason to never attempt anything different than what you know. The truth is, you are an original. There has never been anyone before you that offers dynamic, powerful and innovative presence and ideas like you do. I made you imaginative. Full of curiosity and questions, you add a tremendous amount of life to any meeting you encounter. Be innovative like me. Create with your words.
Isaiah 43:19 (NLT) “For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.” Kevin Robinson
January 9, 2019. Time is ticking. Each second is inching into the future. There are 86,400 seconds in each day, 1,440 minutes. You might say to yourself, ‘I don’t have enough time’. I say to you; I have given you ample time so examine how you are spending these time allotments. Each second and each minute of every day is precious and full of potential. Everyone has the same amount of time – what are you doing with yours?
Ecclesiastes 8:6 (NASB) “For there is a proper time and procedure for every delight, though a man’s trouble is heavy upon him.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 8, 2019. One person loves you above and beyond all others. His name is Jesus, our Christ who never changes especially during difficult and seemingly impossible times, He is faithful to the death. Our lives are totally in His hands. Trusting Him creates peace and comfort above all other things. Therefore, it is a safe bet to put all your life and possessions at His disposal. Take Him at His word and lean totally on Him. In the end, you will always be so happy you have done so. Trust Him above all things and beings.
Philippians 4:19 (NASB) “And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Ras Robinson
January 8, 2019. You wonder what it will take to draw some of your lost friends, neighbors and acquaintances into My Kingdom. Be about raising Me up. Make every effort within yourself to exalt Me. Since you are My ambassador, make My realm appealing, inviting and attractive. There are many choices for people to choose for giving their devotion. Ultimately, My Spirit is the one who draws people to Himself. Be the one who engages others warmheartedly and affectionately.
Psalm 34:3 (TPT) “Join me, everyone! Let’s praise the Lord together. Let’s make him famous! Let’s make his name glorious to all.” Kevin Robinson
January 8, 2019. When a large structure is erected, the foundation is only the beginning, but it is also the most important part of the structure. Without foundational integrity the structure will not endure the elements to which it is exposed. You, My child, are the same. Establish a strong foundation on Me in order for your life to not only endure, but flourish when the spiritual forces of darkness attack. Build your house firmly on the foundation of Me!
Matthew 7:24-25 (NASB) “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock.” Jonas Bohlin
January 7, 2019. There are many blessings ahead. If I were to enumerate them all, it would be hard to believe. This is one reason they come a little at the time. You can believe that. But in the back of your mind, trust that many will surely come. I have always had for you more blessings than you could believe. One especially at times doesn’t seem like a blessing, but it is a profound blessing. One day you will see.
John 1:16 (NLT2) “From his abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another.” Bev Robinson
January 7, 2019. You have become somewhat disillusioned with the fact that you do not even recognize the stronghold Satan has on you. What once was a minor struggle has become a full-blown stranglehold, choking your life right out of you. Satan has monopolized your weaknesses and is underhandedly using them against you. My grip is stronger than his though. Seek help and take the necessary precautions to rid yourself of his control. Humble yourself and get help, whether it is professional help or help from someone mature in the LORD. Time is of the essence.
2 Corinthians 10:4 (TPT) “For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide.” Kevin Robinson
January 7, 2019. Forgiveness is always best. You say to yourself ‘There are just some things that cannot be forgiven.’ I say to you that you are hearing lies from the father of lies. My son was able to forgive as he was being unjustly nailed to the cross. He cried out for help to forgive those who killed Him. You can do the same – cry out for My help and I will help you forgive those who have wounded you.
Matthew 18:21-22 (NLT) “Then Peter came to him and asked, “Lord, how often should I forgive someone who sins against me? Seven times? “No, not seven times,” Jesus replied, “but seventy times seven!” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 5, 2019. Don’t think you have all the time in the world to get a specific task accomplished. Compared to how busy you have been, it feels like you have so much down time. Don’t fall into that pit. Keep close contact with Me and I will get you doing what needs to be done at the right time. You will have time left over because you will be doing what needs to be done at the right time.
Ephesians 5:16-17 (NASB) “making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.” Bev Robinson
January 5, 2019. Bequeath isn’t a term used very often. However, it is relevant for today. Something you have been pondering, is whether to bestow your ministerial/ occupational position to trustworthy individuals. You have done an excellent job mentoring your future successors. It is not so much a retirement, but rather a lateral movement to something new. I congratulate you for not vacating your post. You have been devoted and faithful. Job well done. Those involved are more than capable.
2 Timothy 2:2 (CEB) “Take the things you heard me say in front of many other witnesses and pass them on to faithful people who are also capable of teaching others.” Kevin Robinson
January 5, 2019. From time to time you have been corrected or reprimanded by Me for one thing or the other. My child, do not be discouraged or angry when that correction comes. When correction comes, it is for your increase and betterment. It is with My love for you and My desire to see you grow and increase that correction comes. Allow your heart to lead you to hear that correction and make adjustments. Then you will flourish.
Jeremiah 10:23-24 (AMP) “O Lord, I know that the path of [life of] a man is not in himself; it is not within [the limited ability of] man [even one at his best] to choose and direct his steps [in life]. O Lord, correct me [along with Your people], but with mercy and in just measure-Not in Your anger, or You will crush me and bring me to nothing.” Jonas Bohlin
January 4, 2019. Exhibit faith. Don’t just think about it. Don’t just speak it. Yes, do think and do speak faith, but that isn’t all. Let it become a reality so natural in your walk of life that your faith moves up into the supernatural realm. You have something before you which calls for supernatural faith. It is a healing which is so needed that you will need to walk in faith for a long time. This will be accomplished.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (AMP) “For we walk by faith [we regulate our lives and conduct ourselves by our conviction or belief respecting man’s relationship to God and divine things, with trust and holy fervor; thus we walk] not by sight or appearance.” Bev Robinson
January 4, 2019. Through a series of events, some going back decades, you have shut yourself down emotionally. Whether it was pain and suffering you mentally blocked out or various other traumatic instances, the agony is as real as if it was yesterday. You were not alone! I was with you throughout all the distressing times you went through. You are not alone now. Let Me in. Divulge to me what you are experiencing. It is okay to get in touch with your feelings. I AM your safe harbor.
Psalm 46:1 (MSG) “God is a safe place to hide, ready to help when we need him. We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom, courageous in seastorm and earthquake, Before the rush and roar of oceans, the tremors that shift mountains. Jacob-wrestling God fights for us, God-of-Angel-Armies protects us.” Kevin Robinson
January 4, 2019. There is a turn-around coming. Some of you have had a series of reversals, a string of disappointments. I AM not a God who slumbers nor sleeps. You have wondered if I AM aware; I AM. Lift up your heads, defeat is being commanded to leave on your behalf. A new dawn is arising and soon the atmosphere will change. Do not despair, little one, for a change is coming soon and you will know it.
Psalm 24:7-8 (NASB) “Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in! Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 3, 2019. You have been looking and assessing something from an old point of view. New information will soon come that will clear up your vision. You will need to examine this from the new point of view. The old has been good, but not nearly as good as the new. You will see, as time moves on, the blessing that the new will bring. Don’t be wary of the new. Receive it and move forward with the flow.
Isaiah 43:18-19 (AMP) “Do not [earnestly] remember the former things; neither consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs forth; do you not perceive and know it and will you not give heed to it? I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” Bev Robinson
January 3, 2019. You have gotten yourself caught up in a sticky situation. Through no fault of your own, a quandary has presented itself before you. You have been presented with a catch-22 dilemma. No matter which way you move, people are going to be wounded, upset and hurt. Choosing the lesser of two harms is the best way to move. Ask Me for wisdom and ask seasoned mature believers how you should respond. Strengthen your resolve and move judiciously.
Psalm 50:15 (TPT) “Honor me by trusting in me in your day of trouble. Cry aloud to me, and I will be there to rescue you.” Kevin Robinson
January 3, 2019. One of the tenets of My Kingdom is giving. I AM God who gives to His children. I AM God who demonstrates that giving is truly more blessed than receiving. I gave the garden to Adam and Eve; I gave to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and their descendants throughout history. My ultimate gift to you is My Son. Follow My principle that I have demonstrated from the beginning of time. Give and it will be given to you.
Genesis 17:8 (NASB) “I will give to you and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.” Jonas Bohlin
January 2, 2019. In your lifetime you have many opportunities to straighten up and fly right. There are new millennia, new centuries, new decades, new years, and time for a new beginning every day. Even your brain is programmed to repent and change your ways every few seconds. There are many chances every day to build on good thoughts of thanksgiving and praise toward others and ultimately to Me. I have readily available victory, favor, love, peace, joy and matchless unbroken fellowship for you.
Isaiah 30:18 (AMP) “And therefore the Lord [earnestly] waits [expecting, looking, and longing] to be gracious to you; and therefore He lifts Himself up, that He may have mercy on you and show loving-kindness to you. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are all those who [earnestly] wait for Him, who expect and look and long for Him [for His victory, His favor, His love, His peace, His joy, and His matchless, unbroken companionship]!” Bev Robinson
January 2, 2019. Recently you have had some serious episodes of apprehension. There was some news you received which has caused you to be uneasy. In essence, your peace has been stolen. Your nervousness did not originate with Me. My child, why do you worry? Do you trust Me? Stop making mountains out of molehills. Have I ever failed you? Trust Me. I AM refining you. Learn to embrace My purposes for you. Strike down fear. Rest in My love.
Philippians 3:13 (TPT) “I don’t depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead.” Kevin Robinson
January 2, 2019. Singing makes a difference! Sing away saints – Sing away! When you sing of My excellence and when you sing My praise, darkness is dispelled. The evil one cannot STAND your singing. You push back darkness and depression when you sing. You bring in joy and peace when you sing. Even humming a melody causes your spirit to be lifted; try it and watch as the change comes. Singing even changes the atmosphere around you as others listen.
Psalm 5:11 (NLT) “But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them sing joyful praises forever. Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 1, 2019. Most always a new beginning is refreshing. This is a chance to begin again with some things you wanted last year. I AM telling you this My child: Prepare yourself with peace and joy. This will be among the best years you will ever experience. You are learning to say good words and think good thoughts. I see you expressing thankfulness with many people. You will see and experience the reaping of what you have been doing.
Proverbs 11:18 (NIV) “The wicked man earns deceptive wages, but he who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.” Bev Robinson
January 1, 2019. There will always be things about Me that you don’t understand. At times you simply have to trust Me. My ways are always true and straightforward. I cast no shadow because I AM surrounded by and am light in its truest meaning. Even that may be difficult to understand because of your finite comprehension which includes shadows. I pray for your eyes to be enlightened to know the depth and wealth of all that I AM. Believe!
Daniel 2:22 (NLT) “He reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in darkness, though he is surrounded by light.” Kevin Robinson
January 1, 2019. Today is a new day! The year 2019 is a year that I have created. I have ordained this year to be a year of increase and expansion. 2018 was a wonderful year, but I say to you that the best is yet to come. Enter 2019 with the anticipation that I have great things ahead in 2019. Press into Me and follow Me as I lead you into a year of extravagant increase and expansion!
1 Chronicles 4:10 (NASB) “Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm that it may not pain me!” And God granted him what he requested.” Jonas Bohlin
