November 30, 2016. Never lose hope! There will always be something or someone in which to believe when clouds and storms arrive. There will be times in the near future when you will believe very, very little from the LORD. Your hope will have mysteriously slipped away from you. At this time, stop everything in which you have lived in your past. In this instance, the LORD will act to avoid the jaws of disaster. Great glory is yours for the taking now.
Isaiah 48:11 (NASB) “For My own sake, for My own sake, I will act; For how can My name be profaned? And My glory I will not give to another.” Ras Robinson
November 30, 2016. Events are on schedule. They will remain on schedule. It will get a little worse before it gets better, but this is nothing to be concerned about. Getting worse is necessary before it gets better. Just don’t let the fact of things getting a worse throw you off course. Your assignment is to stay calm and speak faith. Don’t let outside circumstances affect you. Don’t go by what you see or hear. Go by what I’ve instructed.
John 8:28 (NLT) “So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man on the cross, then you will understand that I AM he. I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me.” Bev Robinson
November 30, 2016. At the front door of your spiritual home is a package you have been waiting for. The timing of its arrival is spot on and right on time. You need to know the delivery has been in the works over a long period and did not happen by mistake. Open it up and use it right away. There isn’t any reason to delay. Open your eyes to see what you have been waiting for. Utilize the package.
1 Peter 4:10 (NIV) “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” Kevin Robinson
November 29, 2016. God revels in the righteousness you have received. He has been most generous with you for a purpose. First, He wants you to know that He identifies with you as you are. He also wants you to be an exhibit of His righteousness which is a gift from God to you. Use it and keep it public for all to see and understand. Locked inside you is the perfect vessel for showing His glory in the earth. Make Him look good.
Job 17:9 (NASB) “Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his way, and he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.” Ras Robinson
November 29, 2016. There are several circumstances that could give you reason to worry. But you aren’t going to worry are you? Worry is a waste of time and doesn’t do your body any good anyway. Turn your worries into prayers. That is a good use of your time and produces good results. Prayers engage Me. Worries don’t. It’s a fact the devil wants you to worry. Worry negatively affects your body. Prayers accompanied with thanksgiving blesses your mind and body.
Philippians 4:6-7 (MSG) “Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.” Bev Robinson
November 29, 2016. Today is a new beginning in more ways than one. Things have definitely begun to shift from the same old routines over to fresh starts in various avenues of your life. It is time to get a move onto things you have been putting off and putting off. No more excuses. No more justification for actions or behaviors which have been detrimental to your health and well-being. You have acted on the safe side long enough. Get moving.
Matthew 8:21-22 (NKJV) “Then another of His disciples said to Him, “LORD, let me first go and bury my father.” But Jesus said to him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.” Kevin Robinson
November 28, 2016. When you think about the fact that God knows all things, is everywhere throughout the world at once and how all the power of the universe is at His command, it would make sense that believers in Him would seek Him for all the things He is, can do, and seek His power and knowledge. When asked, Jesus gave fishless fishermen the secret to success. They obeyed His words and a miracle catch occurred.
John 21:4-6 (NLT) “At dawn Jesus was standing on the beach, but the disciples couldn’t see who he was. He called out, “Fellows, have you caught any fish?” “No,” they replied. Then he said, “Throw out your net on the right-hand side of the boat, and you’ll get some!” So they did, and they couldn’t haul in the net because there were so many fish in it.” Ras Robinson
November 28, 2016. You haven’t yet seen anything compared to what you will see. I have called you and I will bless you. You are on a new track that you didn’t know was possible. You have prayed and remained faithful, even at times when you weren’t aware you were being faithful. The currency of Heaven is faith. You operate by faith to bring things you cannot see into the natural world that you can see. Exercise faith.
Hebrews 11:1-3 (MSG) “The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see. The act of faith is what distinguished our ancestors, set them above the crowd. By faith, we see the world called into existence by God’s word, what we see created by what we don’t see” Bev Robinson
November 28, 2016. The perception you have of things is not the way it really is. Instead of jumping to conclusions of what you believe are the situations, give people the benefit of the doubt. Thankfully you live in a society where people are believed to be innocent until they are proven guilty. Aren’t you glad you have been given grace where judgment could have easily been handed down. Open your eyes wide to see the whole complete situation.
Isaiah 11:3 (NLT) “He will delight in obeying the LORD. He will not judge by appearance nor make a decision based on hearsay.” Kevin Robinson
November 26, 2016. For the born again Christian, Jesus has already come. He came into your heart to live there forever. There is nothing you can do to cause God to love you more or to love you less. You have the divine assignment to make Jesus known world-wide as the Savior, Healer and Deliverer. This will require you to humble yourself as never before. He will exalt you in due season! Have faith and believe. Jesus has come and will yet come again.
Mark 1:7 (NLT) “John announced: “Someone is coming soon who is greater than I am-so much greater that I’m not even worthy to stoop down like a slave and untie the straps of his sandals.” Ras Robinson
November 26, 2016. Don’t let the task before you get overwhelming. I know it is difficult, but don’t let your mind camp where your thinking is right now. I know you are thinking you don’t know what to do. You don’t know where to start. Don’t procrastinate. Start somewhere. Start now. I AM sending help. You can get it done with those I’m sending. But you can get a lot done even before help arrives. Keep going now. Don’t give up.
Luke 8:15 (NIV) “But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.” Bev Robinson
November 26, 2016. Embrace the truth and revelation God your heavenly Father has planned for you. You have been given an ample endowment by Him. It is very specific and for you alone. The endowment is not gifts and talents for you to sit on, but to first and foremost distribute life and love to the Body of Christ. You already believe God is a generous God. Knowing this, live as liberally with others as God is with you.
Matthew 10:8 (NLT) “Heal the sick, raise the dead, cure those with leprosy, and cast out demons. Give as freely as you have received!” Kevin Robinson
November 25, 2016. Troubles cause distractions in your journey through this life. The troubles come mostly from the devil, your flesh and your negligence in seeking His presence. Find endless and creative ways to meditate on His word, the Scriptures. You will find there the wisdom and understanding you have been seeking. The one who performs what has been written in Scripture will defeat the enemy in your life. Seek Him.
Psalm 1:2 (NASB) “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.” Ras Robinson
November 25, 2016. I know you are thankful because I know your heart. You show Me by your thoughts and your words. This is good for Me and also good for you. Good thoughts of any kind, especially thoughts and words of thanksgiving, bathe your mind, your emotions and your body with good hormones that bring health to all of you. You do it not just at this time of year but all the time. It brings healing and health.
Proverbs 17:22 (AMP) “A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.” Bev Robinson
November 25, 2016. Satan will continue to bombard you with faults from your past until the day you pass from this life into glory. How about this? Fight fire with fire. Remind Satan of his past fiascoes. Every time you sing hymns and praise songs, remind him of his pride and arrogance when he once held the highest position of music in Heaven. Sing praises to God. Sing praises loud and strong. Speak out to the heavens God’s truth with thanksgiving.
Revelation 20:10 (NLT) “Then the devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the fiery lake of burning sulfur, joining the beast and the false prophet. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Kevin Robinson
November 24, 2016. God has a plan for you. It is a plan kept in place by Him until the right time for release. He is building your spiritual house, furnished with all good things you need. You are constantly on His mind with your name written in the palm of His hand. His wisdom, knowledge and understanding are added onto this house. I t has your name on it and it is recorded in Heaven.
Proverbs 24:3-4 (NASB) “By wisdom a house is built, And by understanding it is established; and by knowledge the rooms are filled With all precious and pleasant riches.” Ras Robinson
November 24, 2016. Blessings are piling up. You need to cash them in. All it takes is believing. You have had your mind on other things. That isn’t bad. Rather it is good. Some other things have needed to be thought through and acted upon and you have been faithful. Now it is time for you. I know there are some hard times just on your horizon. You will pass through them with My speed. This is one My blessings.
2 Corinthians 9:8-9 (MOFF) “God is able to bless you with ample means, so that you may always have quite enough for any emergency of your own and ample besides for any kind act to others; as it is written, He scatters his gifts to the poor broadcast, his charity lasts forever.” Bev Robinson
November 24, 2016. You have heard the squeak of a door on its hinges before and thought it could use some oil to make the screech go away. So true is your life with Me. Apply the anointing oil to yourself to quiet the squeaking within your own soul. Literally apply this anointing oil to your head, your joints and your tongue. Encircle your heart with this same oil and fully embrace the restoration longingly desired by your body, the tabernacle.
Exodus 30:26a (NLT) “Use this sacred oil to anoint the Tabernacle.” Kevin Robinson
November 23, 2016. Have you ever been so sick that you could not see the possibility of divine healing by the LORD? He knows your faith for healing is not very strong. So He wants you to at least give yourself as much knowledge as possible concerning your healing. Read the healing Scriptures over and over again. Having memorized them, begin quoting them to others. Build your own faith through praying in the Spirit. Believe.
John 5:8-9 (NASB) “Jesus said to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk.” Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.” Ras Robinson
November 23, 2016. Don’t allow self-pity to come anywhere near your door. I know it tries from time to time. Self-pity is a precursor to depression, and the devil wants you to go there. Set up a wall around you if necessary. Some walls aren’t good to hide behind, but this one is. Let Me be your wall and protector. I AM not flesh and blood now, but cultivate awareness of My Presence. Talk to Me as your closest friend.
Revelation 3:20 (MSG) “Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I’ll come right in and sit down to supper with you.” Bev Robinson
November 23, 2016. You wonder if there is any news source that can be completely trusted. Sure you have your favorite channels, but are there any failsafe and fool proof broadcasts? What are you looking for? Are you wanting to be spoon fed only what you want to see and hear? What about unbiased opinions? Are there really any which exist? Let the Bible, the Gospel, and My word be the only foundation on which you rely.
Psalm 119:105 (NIV) “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” Kevin Robinson
November 22, 2016. Believers in Christ owe it to themselves and their audiences to know the Scriptures and to be able to teach and release the heart of God. Especially those who are young or uninformed disciples should be serious students of God’s word. Fill yourself with the knowledge of God and His history in today’s church. Your response to God’s calling on your life will cause you to shine or slip away. Surrender fully to Him and speak of Him from the housetops and under bridges.
John 5:8-9 (NASB) “Jesus *said to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk. Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.” Ras Robinson
November 22, 2016. Don’t worry one single iota that you influence anyone more than you should. You don’t influence anyone more than I want you to. You stay right on target and that pleases Me. What I say is what you hear and then you say what you heard. You want to help people and have no desire to speak anything other than what you have heard from Me. I know that. Keep speaking what you hear. My Spirit reveals to those who listen.
John 10:27 (NIV) “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” Bev Robinson
November 22, 2016. How would you like it if God’s love for you was conditional? Aren’t you glad you don’t have to perform a certain way or speak with any certain criteria to gain acceptance from the Most High God? Why is that true with you? Yes, you are human, but why the disparity? Why do you have imbalance and incongruence among yourselves? Learn to embrace simple unconditional love like that a child does. Be known for your unconditional love.
Matthew 18:2-4 (KJV) “Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, and said, verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Kevin Robinson
November 21, 2016. Have you seen the LORD at any time? There is coming a day when circumstances may demand that you go beyond the pale, or boundary. This could be a fearful challenge. Your God knows exactly what He is doing in your case. Wait until you are certain that what you have heard and seen can be understood by believers. Be sure to cleanse and repair where repair is needed. Tap into God’s peace to prepare your heart.
John 20:18 (NASB) “Mary Magdalene *came, announcing to the disciples, “I have seen the LORD,” and that He had said these things to her.” Ras Robinson
November 21, 2016. A life-changing important day is ahead. You will have much joy in the change. Yes, there will be challenges, but the joy will overshadow any difficulty that arises. You will learn about things you didn’t know beforehand. In joy and peace you will be able to work through anything that comes up. You have made good choices in the past and this will be one of the best you have ever made. Enjoy the long lasting joy.
Ecclesiastes 9:7 (NIV) “Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do.” Bev Robinson
November 21, 2016. Decision time has come and there is no guarantee of the outcome. What will your verdict be? Will your judgment be in favor of those things which seem out of reach and nearly impossible? Have you easily forgotten about all those instances where God came through for your spiritual ancestors of the faith which are listed throughout the Bible? Will your faith stand or will it falter? Will you be known in future generations for faith or fear?
1 Peter 1:8-9 (ESV) “Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.” Kevin Robinson
November 19, 2016. Spend your time wisely, thinking about and doing the most important things. Let some of the lesser valued things die. With this discipline you will save time and money and energy. Even when it is uncomfortable, keep your standards high. There are people watching you so set the bar high and when you explain your strategy to others, use words that can capture those who hear and can be a part of your vision.
Proverbs 19:8 (NASB) “He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good.” Ras Robinson
November 19, 2016. A personal challenge is coming up on your horizon. This is something for which you will need to seek counsel. There is value in seeking several counselors. There will be many suggestions, but you have to hear many before one of them will help you get the right answer. You have sought Me which is good. Don’t get frustrated with hearing from many even though all will not help. Hearing from many will broaden your understanding.
Proverbs 15:22 (NIV) “Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.” Bev Robinson
November 19, 2016. You know that the Holy Spirit was sent to you to be, among other things, your Comforter and Helper. That being true, also knowing that this same Holy Spirit has taken up residence within you, don’t you think you too are to be the same comforter and helper to others like He is to you? Reach out. Get beyond your own comfort zone and co-minister along with Him. Look at ministry situations as team play.
John 14:26 (AMP) “But the Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor-Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will help you remember everything that I have told you.” Kevin Robinson
November 18, 2016. God has peaked your hearing and brightened your eyes. You will hear and see when His banner is raised on the mountains and hear the trumpet sounds of the LORD speak from the mountains. He will cause deep understanding to flood your soul so you will know all this is from God. Satan will attempt to steal this world-wide marvel. Refuse his attempt to discredit God and His Son Jesus. Be ready and keep steady.
Isaiah 18:3 (NIV) “All you people of the world, you who live on the earth, when a banner is raised on the mountains, you will see it, and when a trumpet sounds, you will hear it.” Ras Robinson
November 18, 2016. Peaceful, easier and calmer activities are coming your way. I have been working behind the scenes. You have seen some things and suspected they were ways I kept smoothing things out. I AM telling you now. Yes, that was Me. I have many more areas in which I will pave the way. I make the rough places smooth, level out the high places and raise up the low places. This helps you walk and run your race easier.
Luke 3:5 (NLT) “The valleys will be filled, and the mountains and hills made level. The curves will be straightened, and the rough places made smooth.” Bev Robinson
November 18, 2016. Your life is a culmination of countless events that have happened from your birth to the point where you are right now. Consider taking time to recognize the high notes of what you have learned. Recollect the past and tie it in with the present to see how far you have come. Take note of those things you said you would never do and are currently doing. Recognize God’s sense of humor in your life.
Numbers 22:28-34 (NLT) “Then the LORD gave the donkey the ability to speak. “What have I done to you that deserves your beating me three times?” it asked Balaam. “You have made me look like a fool!” Balaam shouted. “If I had a sword with me, I would kill you!”…..
“Then Balaam confessed to the angel of the LORD, “I have sinned. I didn’t realize you were standing in the road to block my way. I will return home if you are against my going.” Kevin Robinson
November 17, 2017. “Papas and Mamas” are at the head of families. Ideally their offspring see, feel and know the love and devotions given by family heads. Regretfully, some family heads drop the ball or, in other ways, do not honor their place of influence for the good of those who look to them. Today many families and individuals are putting forth a renewed effort to be sure they leave a good legacy or inheritance for their offspring.
Psalm 16:5 (NLT) “LORD, you alone are my inheritance, my cup of blessing. You guard all that is mine.” Ras Robinson
November 17, 2016. Bad news has been ringing in your ears. You have heard a lot of speculations in recent weeks . It is hard not to dwell there. It is hard not to camp there. But don’t do it, Beloved; it will make you miserable. Take your thoughts captive and think on things for which you can be thankful. I know that is a difficult chore right now, but it is something you need to do and something you can do.
2 Corinthians 10:5 (NASB) “We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ,” Bev Robinson
November 17, 2016. Take time to recognize all of the time, space, and events God is continuously working and orchestrating for you. Can you see Him? Can you truly see Him and how He has planned everything for your well being? Find ways to rejoice. Look for ways you can praise Him. Do you see God’s sovereignty and dominion in your steps and ways? Be aware of and identify God as the supplier and benefactor of all that’s good and upright and virtuous.
Psalm 145:3 (MSG) “God is magnificent; he can never be praised enough.There are no boundaries to his greatness.” Kevin Robinson
November 16, 2016. Where can we turn when there is war in almost every direction? Physical, political, cultural and other vicious wars keep multiplying. God is ready for our declaration of dependence upon Him. He is the most powerful force in the universe. When He speaks the forests of the earth can be destroyed. Yet His preference for each of His children is that we be safe and secure. Take a moment to cleanse your heart and ask God!
Psalm 2:1 (MSG) “Why the big noise, nations? Why the mean plots, among peoples?” Ras Robinson
November 16, 2016. Move about with full assurance that I am with you. I AM for you. I believe in you. Yes, I know you have missed the mark on occasions. You are in good company with the rest of My children. I don’t hold that against you. You have repented and trusted Me to make changes in your life. Now get about doing good. Help others do the best they can. This insures you will do the same.
Hebrews 6:10 (NKJV) “For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Bev Robinson
November 16, 2016. Check your heart to see if you’re resistant to others or to those in authority. Only God knows if you truly are. Every once in a while you have the predisposition to be rebellious toward those whom God has placed before you. Do you want to be in the camp of those who are labeled unmanageable and impossible? Believe it or not, people who see others as having such issues, likely have the same issues within themselves.
Romans 2:1 (AMP) “Therefore you have no excuse or justification, everyone of you who [hypocritically] judges and condemns others; for in passing judgment on another person, you condemn yourself, because you who judge [from a position of arrogance or self-righteousness] are habitually practicing the very same things [which you denounce].” Kevin Robinson
November 15, 2016. In the Father’s house are many mansions. These mansions are carefully built and placed where God wants them to provide a special place for you to be close to the Father. Oh the joy to know that your Father has not only built for you a personal mansion, but He has placed it very close to Him. In a family where the children are deeply in love with the Father, there should be dwelling places next to the Father for each child.
Psalm 15:1-2 (NLT) “Who may worship in your sanctuary, LORD? Who may enter your presence on your holy hill? Those who lead blameless lives and do what is right, speaking the truth from sincere hearts.” Ras Robinson
November 15, 2016. Now is the time to change your plans. Things are not as they once were. It has taken a bit to realize it. Stay closely connected to Me. Trust Me to show you as you go. You could have seen it coming if you had watched closely. But you have seen it now. There is no problem because you saw it later rather than earlier. The result will be the same, but it’s a wake-up call now.
Ephesians 5:15-17 (ESV) “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the LORD is.” Bev Robinson
November 15, 2016. Be open minded to opportunities that you may not be aware of yet. God knows you don’t like a lot of change and that you are somewhat reluctant to try out new things. Just like you yield to oncoming traffic at an intersection when driving a car, be aware of your surroundings and grab hold of the opening God is presenting you. God does not work by chance but by carefully planned details. Seize the moment.
Colossians 4:5 (AMP) “Conduct yourself with wisdom in your interactions with outsiders (non-believers), make the most of each opportunity [treating it as something precious].” Kevin Robinson
November 14, 2016. Studies in biblical accuracy should clarify and simplify the truth contained in Scripture. Every care should be taken to be accurate and thorough in quotations, definitions and application of God’s holy words. Stay true to what is right and the need for heightened integrity in this regard. There are penalties for being too carefree with Scripture. God will bless you for respecting and accurately communicating the Scriptures.
1 Timothy 4:16 (NLT) “Keep a close watch on how you live and on your teaching. Stay true to what is right for the sake of your own salvation and the salvation of those who hear you.” Ras Robinson
November 14, 2016. What should I do? This has been the question rolling over and over in your mind. This challenge is the result of something you heard, something that was really disheartening. You have rehearsed the needed scenarios again and again. Don’t let too much time pass before you take action, but wait on Me. I’ll show you the exact time. My Spirit is convicting the one at fault. Listen carefully to Me and wait for My timing.
Psalm 27:14 (NIV) “Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.” Bev Robinson
November 14 2016. I know exactly how you are feeling right now. You feel you have done all you know to do, but there are still issues remaining. Now is not the time to give up. You want to quit because things aren’t going like you had imagined. Heed the godly advice of those standing near you, because those who have stuck with you through thick and thin truly have your best interest in mind. Carry on.
2 Chronicles 15:7(NLT) “But as for you, be strong and courageous, for your work will be rewarded.” Kevin Robinson
November 12, 2016. All believers in Christ are evangelists for Him. Tell His story from beginning to end in creative ways and means. Some in the world still have never heard that Jesus was sent by His Father God. When His story is told, the response is usually positive. In one nation in South America 3,000 souls were saved, baptized and received into local churches in one summer. The harvest possibilities are vast. There is hunger for the Gospel . Go tell.
Mark 16:15 (NLT) “And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.” Ras Robinson
November 12, 2016. As long as earth and time remains, there will be differences of opinions. People will gather in opposing camps. It is the nature of people. You will make a decision soon concerning where you will camp. Don’t make the decision without consulting Me. You have already made the most important decision of your life and that is to turn your life over to Me. But there is another decision coming up soon. Stay in close contact with Me.
James 3:17-18 (ESV) “But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.” Bev Robinson
November 12, 2016. You’ve heard it said before that “discretion is the better part of valor,” and that’s true. Discretion is an amazing tool which is to be used very wisely by you the believer. Valor, or courage, is a trait somewhat lacking in today’s society. Embrace valor and run with the wind of the Holy Spirit with, beside and in you. Let God’s will be your will. You’re the vessel God has chosen to be Jesus in the 21st century.
1 Corinthians 16:13 (NLT) “Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous.Be strong.” Kevin Robinson
November 11, 2016. You can trust the Bible — verse by verse from beginning to end. Great wisdom, scholarship and God’s anointing have been the overseers of each verse. There may be verses that you are to take to the LORD in prayer for accurate interpretation. Your purpose in doing this is to get the most accurate understanding. Additionally, it is good to consult trusted Bible students to find new insights to strengthen your faith in the Scriptures.
Luke 1:3-4 (NLT) “Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write a careful account for you, most honorable Theophilus, so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught,” Ras Robinson
November 11, 2016. Things are changing. There have been indications of this for a while, but recently it has become more evident. You aren’t sure how to handle it. In differing measures, changes have been happening all your life. You have handled them and you will handle this the same way. I was there even when you didn’t know I was. You trusted Me then without realizing you were trusting Me. Trust Me now, knowing it’s Me whom you trust.
Psalm 22:9-10 (NASB) “Yet You are He who brought me forth from the womb; You made me trust when upon my mother’s breasts. Upon You I was cast from birth; You have been my God from my mother’s womb.” Bev Robinson
November 11, 2016. You’re to be an encourager to other believers and non-believers alike . You’re already feeling the tugging on your heart strings to move a certain way. It is time to do the unimaginable and get beyond your comfort zone. Do you think Paul felt any regrets for his past persecution of fellow Jews? Of course he did, but he pushed through it for the sake of the Gospel. Similarly, push through any perceived hindrances you have for God’s glory and praise.
Ephesians 4:11-12 (NKJV) “And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,” Kevin Robinson
November 10, 2016. Your righteousness is a gift from God. You were born again because of His mercy. In that process, He washed away our sins, past, present and future. Think of your life now to be a holy one, glorifying God with all you do. Because He gave you righteousness through which He gives and flows His power to you. Being then in good standing, means you minister His will and purpose. He also gave you the Holy Spirit and all that is available in Him.
Titus 3:5 (NLT) “He saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.” Ras Robinson
November 10, 2016. At times lately, you wondered if prayer works. You’ve asked, “Does my prayer work?” But you know what? You kept praying. You did not let doubts hinder you. You kept on praying. You are flesh and blood, but got into a spiritual battle that I called you to. You didn’t give up even when you doubted. This pleases Me. Even though a big battle has been won, the battle is not over. Don’t let up. Keep praying.
Ephesians 6:11-12 (AMP) “Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.” Bev Robinson
November 10, 2016. Be careful not to reject the commands and instructions which the LORD has given you. God has been very specific with the what, how and when you are to follow through with His direction for you. Will you yield to His way of guiding you? Be motivated to do explicitly as He says. Wait patiently for His voice. He is your Heavenly Father and knows what is paramount for you and will lead you accordingly.
Psalm 119:88 (MSG) “In your great love revive me so I can alertly obey your every word.” Kevin Robinson
November 9, 2016. The presence of God can manifest Himself in a cloud of His glory. From the cloud comes a declaration from Him: “This is my dearly loved Son. Listen to Him.” The disciples observed and heard God in the cloud. Peter wanted to build a tent for Jesus, Moses and Elijah. Instead, he was instructed to teach other disciples about the greatness and wonder of God. God said to them, “Listen to the words of Jesus.” That is enough for now.
Mark 9:7 (NLT) “Then a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my dearly loved Son. Listen to him.” Ras Robinson
November 9, 2016. Blessings are piling up. You don’t see how that can possibly be true. It is as far from your thinking now as the East is from the West. Nevertheless, blessings keep piling up. What has happened is something you thought would be disastrous. But the very act of what happened is a big part of what will bring blessings. My ways are not your ways and what happened is a big reason that blessings will come.
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NLT) “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Bev Robinson
November 9, 2016. It is time for you to break free from the chains of bondage you have placed upon yourself. In the past, you have placed the blame upon others or many other situations for your condition. You already know what needs to be done for freedom. Complete and total victory is knocking at your door. Cast aside the unbelief telling you that you can have self-control over those things which previously held you bound. Cry out for unconditional freedom.
2 Peter 2:19b (NLT) “For you are a slave to whatever controls you.” Kevin Robinson
November 8, 2016. Peace soothes the soul and stimulates the whole heart of mankind. The devil hates peace, He works hard to kill, steal and destroy everything especially that which comes so obviously from God our Father. God has provided a place or home for every believer. His dwelling is a place with unlimited and available seats at the table of the LORD. A great Banqueting Table is set and the invitations, including one for you, have been sent.
John 14:1-2 (NLT) “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?” Ras Robinson
November 8, 2016. A surprise is coming. It is completely unexpected. You won’t be sure what to do with what you see and hear. I AM telling you to receive it fully. Don’t doubt and don’t resist. At first you won’t be sure it’s good. Then revelation will come and you will know how to process what has happened. This will turn out to be a big blessing. Much bigger than you think. Develop what comes and it will be a great blessing for the future.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (ESV) “But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him” Bev Robinson
November 8, 2016. Train yourself daily to be submissive and obedient. In these tumultuous times it is vital for you to continue pressing forward. Trust God with the course He has given you. Don’t let politics and religion hinder your primary goals. You may well be affected by policies of governments and so was I. Religious protagonists will always cross your path as they did mine. Keep your eyes fixed upon My Father and follow Him.
John 5:19 (NLT) “So Jesus explained, “I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son also does.” Kevin Robinson
November 7, 2016. God is good all the time. You have heard it said and at times you have observed it to be true. At other times, when God does not act or respond as you expect, you doubt His goodness. But God is, in fact, always incredibly good, but with a deeper love than you have known. His desire is for you to pass love along to others. He wants you to be a giver just like Him.
Proverbs 7:2 (NLT) “Obey my commands and live! Guard my instructions as you guard your own eyes.” Ras Robinson
November 7, 2016. Do the right thing. Don’t do what your peers expect of you. Break ranks. There has been doubt in the past days about doing what you originally thought was the right thing. This doubt is a good doubt, because it doubts what you have heard is right. What you heard is in direct opposition to My will. You know it deep down. That’s why you doubt it. I do not speak truth and lies. Go with your doubts. Do the right thing.
James 4:16 (NASB77) “Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do, and does not do it, to him it is sin.” Bev Robinson
November 7, 2016. I know of the various forms of abuse you have experienced. I feel your pain and heartache. The frame of mind you have is real and needs to be handled very delicately. I understand the sorrow you have experienced, having been there with you all the while. You need to know it is not your fault. Allow Me to softly and tenderly hold you. Open yourself up so restoration can begin to take place. I love you!
Luke 4:18-19 (NKJV) “The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.” Kevin Robinson
November 5, 2016. An immoral woman is likened unto the immoral world in which we live. An immoral woman has much power to defile her nation, but only within the boundaries set by God. The immoral woman can cause a family, a church or a nation to crumble because of her wickedness. Believers are to find out how best to defeat the immoral woman. Find her weaknesses and craft a strategy to bring her down.
Proverbs 5:3-4 (NLT) “For the lips of an immoral woman are as sweet as honey, and her mouth is smoother than oil. But in the end she is as bitter as poison, as dangerous as a double-edged sword.” Ras Robinson
November 5, 2016. I have made the sun, the wind, the rain, the flowers and plants to bless you. When you get down, go outside. Take advantage of nature. Wondering if this is true? Why don’t you try it? Next time you are troubled go outside. Breathe in the air. Let the wind blow across your face. Feel the warmth of the sun on your back. Look at the world around you. Take it all in. Child, let it refresh you.
Psalm 24:1 (MSG) “GOD claims Earth and everything in it, God claims World and all who live on it.” Bev Robinson
November 5, 2016. Look for ways in which you can be content. Instead of looking at situations from an undesirable perspective, find ways to be satisfied about how God has blessed you. Be positive in your outlook of the situations at hand. Can you see all the good God is doing for you in the here and now? Continue to place God at the forefront in everything you do and trust Him to work things out like He always does.
1 Timothy 6:6 (AMP) “But godliness actually is a source of great gain when accompanied by contentment [that contentment which comes from a sense of inner confidence based on the sufficiency of God].” Kevin Robinson
November 4, 2016. Great is the LORD our redeemer and source of all good things. He saved us from utter destruction in a burning hell. And He holds no malice or judgments against His children. Instead, He calls forth His angels and sends them to protect and guide us. They are His instruments to gather up good things in our lives. God’s children are His daily delight. He sings over His children while they sleep. Glory to God!
Psalm 4:1 (NLT) “Answer me when I call to you, O God who declares me innocent. Free me from my troubles. Have mercy on me and hear my prayer,” Ras Robinson
November 4, 2016. You are in the midst of a problem you thought would never be get to this stage. But it’s here. You feel alone, but you are not alone. Others have been seeing this coming. Call out to those who can help. Don’t make a loud call where those who are not involved will hear. Others don’t need to know. You don’t want a spectacle. You want help. Don’t uncover the one who needs help.
Proverbs 17:9 (AMP) “He who covers and forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats or harps on a matter separates even close friends.” Bev Robinson
November 4, 2016. Life is full of hard decisions. What will you do once you face them? Will you tackle them head on, or will you cower away from them with fear, doubt and unbelief? Do you think all of Jesus’ decisions were simple? Be a person of action. Do not put off until tomorrow what you can do today. Trust your Heavenly Father and His guidance for you. Holy Spirit will help you in the steps you’re to take.
Jeremiah 7:23 (ESV) “But this command I gave them: ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. And walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.'” Kevin Robinson
November 3, 2016. Heal the sick, raise the dead and deliver the lost from their bondage to the world systems. You now possess within your own body, soul and spirit all of God’s power you need in order to do and speak what He says and shows you. Use that power as He leads you. Do not build your own tabernacle. Stay humble and freely call upon Him as you have need.
Acts 3:7-8 (NLT) “Then Peter took the lame man by the right hand and helped him up. And as he did, the man’s feet and ankles were instantly healed and strengthened. He jumped up, stood on his feet, and began to walk! Then, walking, leaping, and praising God, he went into the Temple with them.” Ras Robinson
November 3, 2016. Something is not right. You have suspected it, but have no specific information. It is just something you sense in your spirit . This is discernment. It is a gift from Me. You have been sensing this for some time. It is now time to search it out. You don’t think you can help. In the past you felt you didn’t help. You think others can help more or better than you. Your thinking about this isn’t right. You can help.
1 Kings 3:9 (NASB) “an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?” Bev Robinson
November 3, 2016. Words are cheap and easy to come by. Jesus wants you to have a transformation within your heart. Yes, there is grace which can and will cover you for the mistakes you have made. What Jesus desires is for you to have godly sorrow which leads to repentance. It’s not a matter of saying you’re sorry, but rather a complete change in direction, an about face so to speak. Make righteous decisions that will guard your heart.
Ephesians 4:30-32 (NLT) “And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own,guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.” Kevin Robinson
November 2, 2016. God walked upon this earth in the body of Jesus Christ. Through that body of Jesus also came the spoken word and the works of God. That same supernatural presence of Christ is forever with His believers who, by His Spirit, can and does manifest God in so many ways today. Let your heart be full of gladness with His presence. It is a bright light that will never be extinguished. His word is true
Acts 2:28 (NASB) “YOU HAVE MADE known to me the ways of life; YOU WILL MAKE me full of gladness with YOUR PRESENCE.'” Ras Robinson
November 2, 2016. Events are going to start moving faster. Get yourself ready. Don’t be left behind. It’s good for you to have periods of time that move fast. It sharpens your focus. Don’t resist. Get your mind into gear. Be ready. You will have to think on your feet. Stay in close communion with Me and you won’t get behind. If you get behind, it causes you frustration, making you want to stop. Don’t do that. Keep on going.
Romans 5:3-4 (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;” Bev Robinson
November 2, 2016. Disappointment is a normal part of the believer’s life. Frustration is as common as the nose on your face. Due to vain imaginations, ill-conceived ideas and unrealistic expectations, you endure displeasure and disenchantment on an ongoing basis. The question now is, what will do with your perceived problems. Will you sulk and withdraw from the unpleasant situations or will you flourish like a well-watered garden. Set up and establish mindsets that will help you overcome disappointments.
James 1:2-4 (MSG) “Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.” Kevin Robinson
November 1, 2016. Receive the Holy Spirit. He will inhabit your body, soul and spirit when you make Him welcome in every dimension. Holy Spirit will teach you all you need to know in order to understand God’s word. He, the Holy Spirit, is charged from our Heavenly Father with the task of teaching the body of Christ. He teaches us how Jesus lived His life. He teaches the Father’s message to all of mankind. He will give you power to fully understand and fully perform God’s will.
Acts 1:1-2 (GW) “In my first book, Theophilus, I wrote about what Jesus began to do and teach. This included everything from the beginning {of his life} until the day he was taken to heaven. Before he was taken to heaven, he gave instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles, whom he had chosen.” Ras Robinson
November 1, 2016. Something someone communicated has brought you some real concern. You don’t know what is going on, but you know something is not right. It is not your job to worry or speculate. You’ve done that many times in the past and most of the time it was not as bad as you thought. Satan’s strategy is to drive you into a state of misery. He will send terrible troubling thoughts trying to bring you down.
1 Peter 5:8 (NASB) “Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” Bev Robinson
November 1, 2016. You’ve only just begun to scratch the surface. The LORD has a wealth of wisdom and know-how within the structure of your walk with Him. If you can imagine it, almost anything is possible with help and guidance of His Spirit surrounding you. Let the Holy Spirit usher you forward. Dare to push through traditions of men and be willing to go beyond your wildest dreams. Challenge yourself to break through the religious barriers hindering your spiritual progress.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (AMP) “but just as it is written [in Scripture], “Things which the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard, And which have not entered the heart of man, All that God has prepared for those who love Him [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, who obey Him, and who gratefully recognize the benefits that He has bestowed].” Kevin Robinson
