October 31, 2014. There is a way to stop the cycle of thinking that attacked you. You heard bad news. It usually comes to you when you least suspect it. The devil watches for a time when your guard is down. From time to time you forget the way Satan sneaks in. He wants your thinking to be occupied with bad news. I have made a way for the bad news to be replaced with My good news. Meditate on what I say rather than on what you heard. Let Me fight the battle.
Psalm 30:11-12 (NASB) “You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness, That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.” Bev Robinson
October 31, 2014. This has not been your best season. You are learning from your doctors that you have been very close to a serious medical malfunction. It was something you discovered quite by surprise. Your energy level has greatly declined. Your heart has been robbed of proper oxygen and physical health. There is need for immediate medical procedures. Hope is high because you believe. It will be over soon, maybe in 48 hours. Take hope in the Lord, think faith, think positively and believe. The very best is yet to come. Be strong and take heart in the Lord.
Psalm 31:24 (NIV) “Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.” Ras Robinson
October 30, 2014. Since you aren’t sure what to do, don’t do anything. There is no need to rush and you’ll cause a problem if you do. You don’t have a time limit to make a decision, but you are becoming anxious. I know you just want to get it behind you. But there will be more time spent in backtracking than in waiting for the right timing. Continue seeking Me. I have the right timing and the right decision. You don’t like to wait, but blessing follows when you wait on Me.
Isaiah 30:18 (NLT) “So the LORD must wait for you to come to him so he can show you his love and compassion. For the LORD is a faithful God. Blessed are those who wait for his help.” Bev Robinson
October 30, 2014. Oh the promises of God! Your spiritual father Abraham was the embodiment of faith. He was a humble man who knew his human limits, but God! He heard God call him to change the world. He was 85 years old, far beyond traditional retirement years. He may have been the only man of his day who could have heard such an outlandish vision as God imparted to him. But he left his family behind to pursue God and His vision for Abraham. As a result, his faith made him righteous and the father of all believers since that day. God is calling you. Are you listening?
Genesis 12:2-4 (NLT) “I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you. So Abram departed as the LORD had instructed, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran.” Ras Robinson
October 29, 2014. It isn’t happening in the way you have wanted, but I am here to help. If you won’t now take things into your own hands but instead get yourself into a place of rest, you will soon overcome. I know you want to see results. But take the time to get in My Word. Immerse yourself. Rely and trust completely in Me and I will show you exactly what to do. Victory is ahead, but don’t get ahead of Me and take it on yourself. Blessings and victory are ahead.
Psalm 37:3-5 (NASB) “Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.” Bev Robinson
October 29, 2014. You are becoming stronger and stronger. The tests and trials give you strength as My reward for overcoming. With Me, nothing can stop you. All things have been and will remain possible and nothing is impossible to you. The second reward to you is My gift of peace. I am the Prince of Peace living inside you. Your peace is inclusive of your surroundings and also a gift to your family and friends. In this peace, I extend grace and mercy. Give it freely to all. In this, you spread and radiate My glory.
Psalm 29:11 (NLT) “The LORD gives his people strength. The LORD blesses them with peace.” Ras Robinson
October 28, 2014. I want you walking in absolutely no fear whatsoever. Know all you can about Me and My perfect love. You have never seen anything on earth like it. My love is without bounds. My love is a giving love. My love is amazing. I want you to bask in it. I want you to be overcome with it. I want you to know all you can about My love. When you know how good and amazing it really is you will begin sharing it with others without reservation.
1 John 4:18-20 (NASB) “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love. We love, because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen” Bev Robinson
October 28, 2014. Joy will chase and pursue the one who gives and cares for the poor. The poor are happy when they receive the obvious gift of caring. The rich or financially blessed may seem reluctant at first to give to the poor. But those who humble themselves and pray for the poor will discover the joy along with those who receive. Giving is God’s plan to generate and spread God’s provision to all His children. In this way the Father, the giver and the receiver rejoice together. It is all a beautiful praise to God!
Proverbs 28:27 (NLT) “Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing, but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed.” Ras Robinson
October 27, 2014. My words are clear, but you’re at a place where you’re having a hard time hearing. I’m not displeased with you nor will I ever condemn you. I’m teaching you to hear more clearly. Don’t entertain condemning thoughts. The devil is trying to get you to believe him. He is trying to wear you down. You’re thinking you need to work harder, but I’m calling you to rest. What I’m saying is so different than what you have been hearing that it is hard to receive. Beloved, listen to Me.
Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV) “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Bev Robinson
October 27, 2014. Some are in a period of hard times. This is not an easy time for you and you are beginning to suffer discouragement and even sickness. Normally, you are strong and healthy but this discomfort is real. What should you do? You should take this time to pray and rest. God knows your condition and He cares for you. Bring your hardships to Him and ask for His help. You know He loves you. As you pray, be careful to thank Him for His answer that will surely come. Pray to Him in faith.
James 5:13 (NLT) “Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises.” Ras Robinson
October 25, 2014. All around is victory. Can you feel it? Can you sense it in your spirit? There is a creative tension. Not a troubling tension, but a tension that is pulling and stretching. This is a blessed tension and it is of Me. Don’t miss it because it feels different. Don’t minimize it. It isn’t happening everywhere. But now it’s where you are so don’t pull away. Of course come to Me. Tell me of your hesitations. Remember the times you have grown and haven’t understood. Weren’t those times stretching? Beloved, trust Me.
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” Bev Robinson
October 25, 2014. You were given a new spirit the moment you were born again. You were baptized in the Holy Spirit, sealing you forever as a child of God. Now feed and grow your new spirit in the word of God and by hearing His voice. If you have no rule over or feeding of your spirit, your spirit can be open to Satan’s attack. The human spirit and the Spirit of God are closely linked with moral character and attributes. God gave you a new spirit so you will follow His decrees and laws. He loves you.
Proverbs 25:28 (AMP) “He who has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down and without walls.” Ras Robinson
October 24, 2014. The warfare came because there is a big breakthrough on its way. It isn’t just for you. It is for others also. The devil wove a web. It was between what was said and what you heard. He twisted the words. You heard words that were not said. He is a master of twisted words. They become lies. I am the One who is here to help. I weave a beautiful tapestry in your life that replaces the twisted web. All is not lost. Rely on Me. Trust Me.
Proverbs 3:5-7 (MSG) “Trust GOD from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for GOD’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to GOD! Run from evil!” Bev Robinson
October 24, 2014. Stay on the path of life I have given and made known to you. It is clear in your mind. Ask Me and I will make it plain and simple again. Do not feel ashamed that you have gotten off the path. It is easy to get back on again. It is very important because His presence is found on your path, the path I gave you. Repent and get back on the path. There is fullness of joy waiting for you. In Your right hand are pleasures forever. Spend time with Me.
Psalm 16:11 (NASB) “You will make known to me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever.” Ras Robinson
October 23, 2014. I have available for you the wisdom and power to prosper. I see what really makes you happy is when you are giving to others. You are finding out it is really more blessed to give than to receive . Your giving prospers you more than anything. You can keep it, or you can make the choice to bless those in need. I love you enough to give you freedom to make choices. But I want you to make the choices that prosper and bless you and others again and again.
Acts 20:35 (NASB) “In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.'” Bev Robinson
October 23, 2014. The awesome goodness of God is your hope. His goodness overcomes even the shadow of death. There is no provision of fear because He is always with you. This is especially true, when you think of the grace of the Lord to overlook your sins. Any reprimand, correction or discipline actually comforts you. God’s goodness is rooted in His profound and forever love for you. Considering this, sin is to be avoided. The Lord is delighted in you. You are the apple of His eye. He is always watching out for you.
Psalm 23:4 (NIV) “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Ras Robinson
October 22, 2014: Think on the positive. I know you can readily see the negatives. But it does no good to rehearse what is wrong. Don’t think again and again about what is wrong. And certainly don’t back it up with your words. The thinking and speaking of perceived wrongs needs to be directed to Me. Tell Me about them. Then leave them with Me. To fix what is wrong rest in My power, goodness and love. Stand on the Word I have given. Believe that the person of concern will hear Me and obey.
Philippians 4:8 (NLT) “And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.” Bev Robinson
October 22, 2014. Observe the changing season. Excitement is in the air. Summer is gone and fall has come. Like the seasons, life is always changing. Only God is forever and even He changes things according to His word. New things begin but all things come to an end. Wise is the one who knows when to embrace the new and when to release the old. Kings, governments and cultures change. God sees that they come and go. Wisdom says to rejoice in each season. Learn to be flexible; it makes life better. Rejoice in this new season.
Daniel 2:21 (NIV) “He changes times and seasons; he sets up kings and deposes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.” Ras Robinson
October 21, 2014. Beloved, I know sometimes it is hard facing the things before you. Consider this — I lived where you now live. The emotional abuse, the railings, the lack of understanding sometimes became overwhelming. I had a Person to go to. When it became unbearable I went to our Father. Remember this when your life becomes unbearable. You too have the same “go to” Person, but now I am with you to explain to Him in detail how it is. I’m your advocate. I say things that explain people and events in both worlds, on earth and in heaven.
Hebrews 4:14-16 (NIV) “Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, bu t we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are — yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” Bev Robinson
October 21, 2014. Revenge or comfort? When you are harmed, your nature is to retaliate. Perhaps you have the upper hand and would do damage to the offender. The revenge feeling would feel good for a moment. But what would be gained? Perhaps your swelling pride? Joseph was rejected and thrown into a pit by his brothers. Of all things, Joseph ended up as a slave in Egypt. But God’s favor was upon him. His brothers and father came to Egypt. Instead of revenge, Joseph chose to forgive his offending family. Comfort trumped revenge.
Genesis 50:19-21 (AMP) “And Joseph said to them, Fear not; for am I in the place of God? [Vengeance is His, not mine.] As for you, you thought evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring about that many people should be kept alive, as they are this day. Now therefore, do not be afraid. I will provide for and support you and your little ones. And he comforted them [imparting cheer, hope, strength] and spoke to their hearts [kindly].” Ras Robinson
October 20, 2014. Stand your ground. Don’t let the enemy’s bombardment trip you up. You died with Me, rose with Me and are seated with Me in Heavenly places. This is not “pie in the sky” thinking. This is absolute reality. Now Beloved, let your thinking move you up to where you are in reality. Take your thoughts captive. Don’t let your thoughts think on anything but the best. I have the best for you. I have success for you. These are thoughts that move you up higher. You are there. Stay seated.
Ephesians 2:6-7 (NASB) “and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.” Bev Robinson
October 20, 2014. This is a day in which there is great need for both prayers and direction. Having heard His decree, you dare not strike out in a new direction without the SEED (the Word). Rise early in the morning, pray during the night and come boldly to God’s throne of grace to find mercy in your time of need. Tune out other voices. There is only one voice you can totally believe and obey. Listen carefully and intensely to His promises (they are His seed) as a loving God with your best interests at heart. His directions are not grievous to obey.
Psalm 119:145-149 (NLT) “I pray with all my heart; answer me, LORD! I will obey your decrees. I cry out to you; rescue me, that I may obey your laws. I rise early, before the sun is up; I cry out for help and put my hope in your words. I stay awake through the night, thinking about your promise. In your faithful love, O LORD, hear my cry; let me be revived by following your regulations.” Ras Robinson
October 18, 2014. At times you’ve wondered, “Why should I pray? It doesn’t seem to help.” Many times you give up and go another way just before the answer comes. You’ve heard it taught that people live in a microwave world and have come to expect results quickly. Living fast can cause doubt to arise. I desire fellowship and interaction with you. You will soon understand more about prayer and faith. You will have revelation that you have longed for. Beloved, you will soon begin walking in rest with peace and abundant victory.
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
October 18, 2014. Are you up against an impossible situation? Think of Abram at 86 being told (God’s WORD, not knowing it was the very seed he desired) that he was to be father of many nations. Like us, Abram did not realize he already had the seed he needed (God’s WORD). When he finally realized he had the seed, he was 99 years old. And Sarah, at age 90, conceived Issac. With this discovery of the incorruptible seed, Abram became Abraham and is our seed and father today. Only believe and you will see.
Genesis 15:3-4 (KJV) “And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir. And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, this shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.”
1 Peter 1:23 (AMP) “You have been regenerated (born again), not from a mortal origin (seed, sperm), but from one that is immortal by the ever living and lasting Word of God.” Ras Robinson
October 17, 2014. When you follow Me, you will be persecuted. The world does not and cannot understand the way the Kingdom of God operates. You realized that to some extent before giving your life to Me, but it wasn’t a big thing then. So don’t let it worry you now. The rewards for following Me are far greater and more lasting than those offered by the world. Remain at peace. Make sure all your words and actions are based in love, true love, the love that the Father has and gives. Set your heart. You are in the world, but not of it.
John 14:17 (AMP) “The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive (welcome, take to its heart), because it does not see Him or know and recognize Him. But you know and recognize Him, for He lives with you [constantly] and will be in you.” Bev Robinson
October 17, 2014. These are dangerous times. You wisely suspect danger in the days ahead. With this danger comes much evil. Avoid all evil. Resist throwing caution to the wind in some ill-advised act of bravado. Confidence in the Lord is the right way for you to go. There are those who will urge you away by presumptuous urges to be falsely safe. Don’t go for it. Put your confidence in the One who has never failed you. God will not abandon you. Nor will He fail in fighting your battles for you. He always wins.
Proverbs 14:16 (AMP) “A wise man suspects danger and cautiously avoids evil, but the fool bears himself insolently and is [presumptuously] confident.” Ras Robinson
October 16, 2014. The devil has been revealed and overplayed his hand. You see it don’t you? Don’t linger one more moment in his deception and power. He has kept you in this spot for long enough. I have made provision for you to jump up a notch. I propel you from the ridiculous to the sublime. I have infused you with My power and presence to do exactly that. Go for it. Jump up with no guilt. Beloved I have great things ahead for you to accomplish and you need a jump start.
Acts 22:14 (AMP) “And he said, The God of our forefathers has destined and appointed you to come progressively to know His will [to perceive, to recognize more strongly and clearly, and to become better and more intimately acquainted with His will], and to see the Righteous One (Jesus Christ, the Messiah), and to hear a voice from His [own] mouth and a message from His [own] lips;” Bev Robinson
October 16, 2014. Birds singing their songs stir up joy in us. I was returning to our hotel from a nearby restaurant, bringing my wife a cup of coffee. I opened the car door to hear a delightful chorus of singing birds. They were intent and loud. I sang with them to my King. Joy filled our room and our hearts as we sang and danced. What a way to start the day! Today bring your songs joyfully as you enter the courts of the Lord. Come into His presence singing to the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
Psalm 84:2-4 (NLT) “I long, yes, I faint with longing to enter the courts of the LORD. With my whole being, body and soul, I will shout joyfully to the living God. Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow builds her nest and raises her young at a place near your altar, O LORD of Heaven’s Armies, my King and my God! What joy for those who can live in your house, always singing your praises.” Ras Robinson
October 15, 2014. Many options are before you. There is a time coming when even more options will be presented. You think there is no time to pray and ask Me about the right choice. That’s exactly what Satan wants you to think. You do have time. You don’t have to get on your knees in a quiet place. You need to be praying as you go. Seek directions in the face of pressing needs. I know your thoughts and your needs before there is a word on your lips. Look upward to Me.
Matthew 14:19 (AMP) “Then He ordered the crowds to recline on the grass; and He took the five loaves and the two fish, and, looking up to heaven, He gave thanks and blessed and broke the loaves and handed the pieces to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.” Bev Robinson
October 15, 2014. Consider practicing His presence in everyday life. While in a dentist chair in Mexico yesterday, I was experiencing loud noises, vibrations and physical pain within my mouth. Somehow, I escaped all that physically and spiritually to practice His presence. I kept my eyes closed. I began to “see” a covering over my head and everything around me. The covering looked like a plaid cloth with a faded red tint. The Holy Spirit spoke to me about the soil at the foot of the cross on which Jesus bled and died. His blood was covering me in His presence.
Colossians 1:22 (AMP) “Yet now has [Christ, the Messiah] reconciled [you to God] in the body of His flesh through death, in order to present you holy and faultless and irreproachable in His [the Father’s] presence. Ras Robinson
October 14, 2014. My plans for you have always been good. You have strayed at times from those plans, but then returned to Me, the God of your childhood. You were not aware that I was watching over you since before you were born, but I was. When you became aware, joy bubbled up in your soul and delightful peace reigned. The enemy of your soul, Satan, was and is still constantly standing poised to strike. He waits for a good time. Awareness of My Presence defeats him and brings health to your heart, soul and body.
Proverbs 4:20-22 (NLT) “My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. Don’t lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body.” Bev Robinson
October 14, 2014. Pray today for wisdom and miraculous powers. This day is holy unto the Lord for you. Consider carefully each thought, word and deed as you move through this day. Holy Spirit will lead and guide you through several obstacles the devil has prepared. Guard your feelings, refusing to yield to what feels good only at the moment and then vanishes like the wind. Latch onto the holy garment of Jesus in your mind and prayers. Dare to touch Him with your need. He delights in you. Fear not, only believe.
Matthew 13:54 (AMP) “And coming to His own country [Nazareth], He taught in their synagogue so that they were amazed with bewildered wonder, and said, Where did this Man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?” Ras Robinson
October 13, 2014. I am the gate to good pastures. I am also the Shepherd who leads into good pastures. When you consistently consume the food of My pastures, you will see all of your needs and most all of your wants thoroughly satisfied. Roll all your needs and wants over onto Me. I will show and feed you what you really want, what you deep down really want. Right now you aren’t completely sure what you want. When you get there, you will say, “This is what I really wanted.”
John 10:9-11 (NLT) “Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved. They will come and go freely and will find good pastures. The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd sacrifices his life for the sheep.” Bev Robinson
October 13, 2014. Humming, whistling and singing can be a way of life for the righteous ones who are in love with their Father. The sister of Moses, Miriam, expressed the joy of deliverance of the Hebrews from Egypt with a song. She had experienced the hard times and labor of bondage by a powerful enemy. Her exhortation following deliverance was expressed with a song to the Lord, a victory song. The bondage was over. The Egyptians chasing them were drowned, with their horses, in the sea and the Hebrews escaped unharmed. Do you want to enjoy freedom? Hum, whistle and sing to the Lord!
Exodus 15:21 (AMP) “And Miriam responded to them, Sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously and is highly exalted; the horse and his rider He has thrown into the sea.” Ras Robinson
October 11, 2014. If you knew how much I love you, there would never be any doubt whatsoever enter your mind. Don’t ever think for a single moment that I don’t want the absolute best for you. This is why knowing all that I have done for you is called the good news. I always want what is best for you. Furthermore, what I want for you is always better than what you want for yourself. Some bad things happened when you were young, but those things were not of My doing. I love you.
Psalm 139:16-17 (NLT) “You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!” Bev Robinson
October 11, 2014. Can you believe this? Even Jesus got excited that God kept back the knowledge of deliverance and salvation from those who were wise in the eyes of the world. But to even the youngest believers, God revealed deliverance and power over the enemy. To see Jesus rejoicing greatly in the Holy Spirit must have been a marvel to behold. He leaped for joy, maybe even spinning and skipping around. He was so delighted that even the children were receiving revelation of the Father, opening salvation and deliverance from the devil and his demons to everyone who believes. You are invited to rejoice greatly with Jesus.
Luke 10:18-19 (NASB) “And He said to them, “I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.”
Luke 10:21 (NASB) “At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight.” Ras Robinson
October 10, 2014. The first time you heard about Me it was too good to believe. That’s too easy you thought. I must have to do something or work somehow to get to Heaven. But one day you received Me. Even now there are blessings you learn about and find almost too good to be true. Yes, you get to go to Heaven, but in this life on this earth, there are more blessings than you can imagine. It’s still almost too good to be true. But it is true, My child.
John 10:10 (MSG) “A thief is only there to steal and kill and destroy. I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of.” Bev Robinson
October 10, 2014. Before man sinned there was no embarrassment or shame in the world. Adam and Eve were like little children, innocently enjoying their nakedness. There was no sin, nothing to be ashamed of. In the sanctity of marriage before God, can this innocence ever be regained even for a moment or very short periods of time? An older spiritual father to me once shared in his teaching about vulnerability. He said he and his wife made a practice of leaving their pajamas on the bedpost every night. Freedom can be beautiful before God.
Genesis 2:25 (AMP) “And the man and his wife were both naked and were not embarrassed or ashamed in each other’s presence.” Ras Robinson
October 9, 2014. I am just one thought away. Of course I’m always there but thoughts of other things keep you from being aware of My Presence. Don’t allow other thoughts to cloud what you need and want to hear from Me. I have the answers to all your needs. You know that deep down but the cares of the world sometimes carry your thoughts to other places and ways. There is nothing that can separate you from Me or My Love. When things don’t seem to be working. Draw close to Me!
Romans 8:37-39 (NASB) “But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. 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
October 9, 2014. You remember when you became troubled and lost your peace of mind? Suddenly, there was a cloud of gloom and sorrow covering you . Your heart was troubled and fearful. Listen, you have been given a beautiful and priceless gift. It is the peace that Jesus personally gave you. The Lord God says to you this day, “With His peace your heart should not be troubled and you should have no fear. Allow Me to take you by your hand and lead you beside still waters and to the shade of My presence.”
John 14:27 (KJV) “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Ras Robinson
October 8, 2014. Keep trusting Me. Don’t allow doubt in any way to enter your mind. I know the opportunity has already presented itself, but you didn’t overreact to the bombardment of thoughts from the enemy. I am a God who does not take pleasure in wickedness. What is already on the docket ahead will be a success. It will be an abounding blessing to many. You have been fervently praying. I heard your prayer. Now begin thanking Me. Many people will be blessed. Spiritual eyes will be opened and courses of lives will be changed.
Psalm 5:3-4 (NASB) “In the morning, O LORD, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch. For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with You.” Bev Robinson
October 8, 2014. Growing up, my mother taught me that a good name is more valuable than diamonds. Her words greatly influenced my behavior. We passed along this wisdom to our children as well. As a believer, you can rejoice that Jesus’ name is known to be excellent and majestic. You inherited His name. His name resides in your body, soul and spirit. Even in your weakest moments, His name in you and over you never fades. As amazing as it is, His glory and your glory shine higher than the heavens. Live it!
Psalm 8:1 (NLT) “O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens.” Ras Robinson
October 7, 2014. I am not uncertain. I know fully all that is happening and what to do about it. I know indecision keeps creeping into your mind. You don’t want your thinking to be uncertain. Stay aware that you are secure in Me. I know events are changing all around you, but I am keeping you fully secure. Take your thoughts captive firmly to Me and My Word. When you feel you are slipping, rush to My Word. Renew your mind. Don’t allow uncertainty to take hold. Refuse it with all your being.
Isaiah 26:3-4 (NASB) “The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in You. Trust in the LORD forever, For in GOD the LORD, we have an everlasting Rock.” Bev Robinson
October 7, 2014. You simply cannot mix fear and love. My agape love has no room for punishment or fear. Let there be no confusion about this in your mind. The Lord says today, “Concentrate on loving Me with all your heart. Seek to replace or update your love to come up to My standard. My love is perfect, without error or blemish. It never fails to be pure love in all circumstances. Exchange your life for Mine. Die to anything less than agape love. You are a new being. Remember I love you.
1 John 4:18 (NASB) “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.” Ras Robinson
October 6, 2014. Something someone did caused you disappointment. Now a recent word has come that you had hoped not to hear. Don’t respond in like manner. Respond My way. My way is the way of wisdom. Restoration needs to occur and it will only occur if you follow Me closely. The first step has already come to mind. Do what I have said to do. If you don’t do it soon you won’t do it. You will be tempted to talk yourself out of doing what I have impressed you to do.
James 1:5-8 (NKJV) “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” Bev Robinson
October 6, 2014. You feel guilty about going outside the camp for your spiritual needs. You need to hear a prophetic word from the Lord. At your present location, you are not getting that which you seek. The Lord wants you to know that He approves your going outside the camp at times. Study how Moses made available “a tent” wherein people could come to him in his prophetic role when they needed to inquire of the Lord. This tent was pitched outside the camp, giving privacy and the right spiritual atmosphere. Seek Me in the tent.
Exodus 33:7 (NIV) “Now Moses used to take a tent and pitch it outside the camp some distance away, calling it the “tent of meeting.” Anyone inquiring of the LORD would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp.” Ras Robinson
October 4, 2014. Think about what you are doing at the time you are doing it. Keep your focus on what is before you. Whatever you are thinking, keep your mind on target. If what you are doing is not of Me, jettison it quickly. Think carefully about what is of Me. Engage with My presence. Meditate. Concentrate. Linger. Enjoy and maintain a attitude of thankfulness. You’ll see a difference in all you do. The road is narrow that leads to life. The road is wide that leads to no good and destruction.
Matthew 7:13-14 (NASB) “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.” Bev Robinson
October 4, 2014. There are hard times with battles ahead. These present situations are not new either to you or to others. This time ahead will allow you to be a cool, pure stream of fresh water to God’s army. They will come to you wounded, weary and very open minded to what you have to offer. You will minister to them out of your cool and rested spirit. The Holy Spirit will be your guide. He will activate Jesus to come alongside. His very presence will bring peace. Live in His word.
Exodus 33:14-15 (NLT) “The LORD replied, “I will personally go with you, Moses, and I will give you rest-everything will be fine for you. Then Moses said, “If you don’t personally go with us, don’t make us leave this place.” Ras Robinson
October 3, 2014. Beloved, I see that your mind is focused on Me and this is good. Your heart’s desire is to do what I say. I am so much the center of your focus that you don’t see the enemies swirling around you. Make it your goal to keep My ways, because these enemies are just waiting for an opportunity to pull you down. Keep your thoughts in thankfulness of all I have done and provided for you and these enemies won’t have a chance. I have abundance prepared for you on earth and in heaven.
Psalm 62:6-7 (NLT) “He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken. My victory and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.” Bev Robinson
October 3, 2014. I am calling attention to the fatherless and the widows. They are My priority in this hour. Hard times are on the way. Without My defense in their behalf, they will not be treated with respect or generosity. Take into account their needs and cry out to your heart and to hearts everywhere to help and bless. Remember the nameless and forgotten in their plight. I will place the ones right in front of you who most need the expressions of your caring heart. Tap into the generosity of sensitive and loving hearts who wish to help them.
Deuteronomy 10:18 (NIV) “He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, giving him food and clothing.” Ras Robinson
October 2, 2014. What you see is not the way it really is. As you observe, there are clues about what is to come but presently you are looking with natural eyes. You’ve done this for years. Now I am training you to see with eyes of faith. Yes. Observe the evident clues because there is first the natural. But then open your mind to discovering the supernatural. This is the way it really is. The supernatural runs on a wave length very closely related to the natural. You will begin to see.
1 Corinthians 15:45-48 (MSG) “We follow this sequence in Scripture: The First Adam received life, the Last Adam is a life-giving Spirit. Physical life comes first, then spiritual- a firm base shaped from the earth, a final completion coming out of heaven. The First Man was made out of earth, and people since then are earthy; the Second Man was made out of heaven, and people now can be heavenly.” Bev Robinson
October 2, 2014. There are hungry people at home and abroad. Just as I spoke through Elijah to the widow who lacked bread, I shall speak to you today. My priority is that none of My children ever go hungry. This widow was faithful to her son who needed food. Elijah was also hungry. She obeyed the voice of God and her reward was a miracle of bread to feed her, her son and Elijah for many days. It is My will that neither your jar of oil nor your bowl of flour ever be empty.
1 Kings 17:14-16 (NASB) “For thus says the LORD God of Israel, ‘The bowl of flour shall not be exhausted, nor shall the jar of oil be empty, until the day that the LORD sends rain on the face of the earth.'” So she went and did according to the word of Elijah, and she and he and her household ate for many days. The bowl of flour was not exhausted nor did the jar of oil become empty, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke through Elijah.” Ras Robinson
October 1, 2014. Upcoming events are causing some stress. The events will surely happen but there are still a lot of steps to getting there. These steps aren’t nailed down which creates an opportunity for worry. But don’t. Worry does nothing to help and it brings complications. It does no one any good. You need to trust others to carry their part. Be at peace and wait patiently. Patience is hard when things like this go on, but worry will not help. Talk to Me and trust Me. I bring peace.
Philippians 4:6-7 (AMP) “Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.And God’s peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus” Bev Robinson
October 1, 2014. You have been promised something by God. Not many, if any, know of that promise and how it came about. The Lord says today, “As surely as the sun rises and the wind blows, I will keep my promise to you. You heard My voice. Like a child, you immediately received it deep into your heart. T ears flowed because you felt you were not qualified nor good enough to receive what I promised. During that time, I continued to speak and you listened. It was important and still is essential that you obey My voice . Good and better things than you have received before will soon be yours. You have My promise on it.
Genesis 21:1-3 (NASB) “Then the LORD took note of Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did for Sarah as He had promised. So Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him. Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac” Ras Robinson

Isaiah 54:14-17 (NKJV)
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith
Who blows the coals in the fire,
Who brings forth an instrument for his work;
And I have created the spoiler to destroy.
17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.
