The Trumpet by Bill Burns:
In a vision of the path of life I saw resting places where self-examination was to take place. These were places that were designed to examine what we believe. Each rest stop was for the purpose of challenging our belief and an opportunity to strengthen our belief.

2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the belief. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you are disqualified.

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:For those who acknowledge and walk with Me, I am making a way that you can follow. Do not be afraid to miss what I am doing in your life. I truly am for you and not against you. You are My own special treasure. Embrace this spiritual reality, and do not doubt the love that I have for you, says the Lord.

Proverbs 3:5-6 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.

December 22, 2014. (Reposted) I have plans for you. They are better than you can imagine. You made a commitment to follow Me. Now seek My plan to bring in the many blessings that accompany the commitment. Don't strike out on you own or many mistakes will be made and much time will be wasted. When I called you forth I also supplied the provision to carry out your destiny. The plans I have will not always be easy but they will be simple. I'm not complicated. You will seek Me and follow.

Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Bev Robinson

Surely you know God chose you to be His child from before the foundations of the earth. You were always on His mind and in His eyes. All your life, He has kept you as the apple of His eye. As you have grown physically, He has counted you more and more special in His sight. He has made an eternal covenant of protective love with you. You will be eternally blessed by God. Your enemies become His and He fights your battles for you. Become one on a daily basis with your Lord.

Psalm 22:9-10 "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." Ras Robinson

If you want things to be different, you must take the first step to make them different. Unless, of course, change is not within the boundaries of your authority. There are things you can do something about and things you cannot. Stay within the confines of your limitations.

Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

December 21, 2024. Obedience brings blessings! Just as a trained animal gets rewarded for his obedient behavior – so shall you. Why? Because obedience to My ways and My Word must result in blessings. It’s My good pleasure to bless those who follow in My ways. I will not lead you astray – listen and follow. My way is made clear in My Word. Read, absorb, learn and be blessed.

Proverbs 10:6a “Blessings of the Lord are on the head of the righteous,”

Luke 11:28 “Jesus replied, ‘That's true, but the people who are really blessed are the ones who hear and obey God's message!’” Robin Robinson Bohlin

December 21, 2024. I have done what I promised. I promised a Savior of the world and I delivered. I promised Holy Spirit, I delivered. I promised that My chosen, Israel, will be victorious and I delivered. Trust Me and believe Me that I will accomplish the promises that I have made to you. Celebrate the promise of My provision for all your needs by way of My Son, Jesus. Embrace the promises that I have proven over and over!

Isaiah 7:14 “Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name Immanuel.” Jonas Bohlin

December 21, 2013. (Reposted) A breakthrough is coming. There will be some things which happen which will shake you, but keep your mind focused on the breakthrough which is already on its way. I am the Breaker and I break loose the works of the enemy which have a strong hold. The stronghold is evident, but so will be the Breaker. He will lead the procession of good things to come. He will parade multiplied blessings before you. At first you won't recognize what is happening, but then you will see and begin rejoicing.

Micah 2:13 "The Breaker [the Messiah] will go up before them. They will break through, pass in through the gate and go out through it, and their King will pass on before them, the Lord at their head." Bev Robinson

Telling people about the goodness and wonders of Jesus seems to make the Father in Heaven happy. That is why the Methodist minister who led me to Christ when I was 12 years old immediately told me to be baptized the next day. He said that in doing so, I was telling those who saw me being baptized that Christ was preeminently important to me and that I wanted all to know about it. It was my chance to brag on God's Son Jesus and make Him look good.

Matthew 10:32-33 "Everyone who acknowledges Me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before My Father in heaven. But everyone who denies Me here on earth, I will also deny before My Father in heaven." Ras Robinson

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:
You will be inclined to think about the past and all of the ways you have been hurt, but this will not be helpful. Those times are behind you, and dwelling on them will not change anything. You must forgive and move on. Otherwise, you will get stuck in a cycle of never-ending remorse.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things.

December 20, 2024. You have been smelling a scent – it is beautiful and fresh – even aromatic. You check your home for lit candles, there are none. You check other possible sources, there are none. I tell you I am the fragrance that has invaded your home. The sweetness of Holy Spirit has descended. Enjoy it while it lingers; it is a reminder to you of your good life given to you by your Good Father!

Song of Solomon 1:3 “The aroma of Your oils is fragrant and pleasing; Your name is perfume poured out; Therefore the maidens love You.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

December 20, 2024. Do you know that you can prophesy to yourself? When you declare My Word over your life you are prophesying to yourself. Take the authority that I have placed within and begin to decree it over every circumstance and situation. You can speak defeat, or you can speak victory. Declare you are healed, nothing lacking, nothing broken and nothing missing in your life. Watch things begin to change as you declare My Word.

Job 22:28 “And He will restore to you a habitation of righteousness, and upon your ways will be brightness.” Pam Jackson

December 20, 2013. (Reposted) Cling to the hope I have given. Don't take lightly the spark of hope in your heart. I work from the inside out. You know the saying, "It's an inside job." That's the way I work. Real change comes and remains when it is first on the inside. When change comes on the inside, it works its way outward to action. Action is on its way. Don't give up. Another saying to remember is, "It's the darkest before the dawn." This is exactly where things are. Hope in Me.

Romans 11:36 "For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen." Bev Robinson

December 20, 2013. (Reposted) A prominent doctor recently told me, months after my prayers, that from the moment I prayed for him, the healing started and is continuing today. The Lord says, "I want stories of My healings that come as a result of the prayers of My believers to be told. Tell the testimonies, faith will grow and more healings will occur. Many hesitate to testify of healings they have seen because they have received no feedback from those for whom they prayed. Testify of My healings that came as a result of your prayers, even when the results came later. Testify and build the faith of believers."

Matthew 20:32-34 "And Jesus stopped and called them, and said, "What do you want Me to do for you?" They said to Him, "Lord, we want our eyes to be opened." Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes; and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him." Ras Robinson

Rise up out of the dead ashes of the past to face a brand new day. Begin again with renewed hope, and refuse to allow the devil to steal your sense of value and commitment to life in the Spirit.

Ephesians 6:10-11 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

December 19, 2024. Jesus was gentle and humble. I desire these same characteristics for you. Do you remember that the meek will inherit the earth? Ask Me and I will show you areas that need more gentleness, humility and meekness. You may see these as signs of lack of strength, but I tell you Jesus had enormous strength while displaying these qualities. Become like Him and walk in His power!

Matthew 11:29-30 “Wear My yoke—for it fits perfectly—and let Me teach you; for I am gentle and humble, and you shall find rest for your souls; for My burden is light.”

Matthew 5:5 “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

There is no need for worry. Worry does you no good and certainly can't change anything. You will see what you thought was about to happen won't happen. Remember when you prayed and prayed but could see nothing happening? It was happening, but in ways you could not see. It wasn't clear. It was all happening where no one could really see and put things together but nevertheless it was happening. I heard your prayers and they lined up with the things I wanted. Precious, I'm blessing those you love.

James 5:16 "Acknowledge to one another the transgressions and make a vow for one another, so that you should be healed! The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." Bev Robinson

Partnership is apt to change your life forever. Well-chosen partners are often a ticket to greater success and happiness. Be wise and choose to be a good partner yourself. Seek to submit yourself and your gifts to and with the one(s) with whom you can live in full agreement and unity. You and they together can immediately multiply your possessions and future. Jesus taught Peter and the disciples an enriching message about unity and agreement among partners. Blessings always follow those who take His lessons seriously. Be a good partner. Be happy and successful.

Luke 5:7 "So they signaled to their partners in the other boat for them to come and help them. And they came and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink." Ras Robinson

December 19, 2015. (Reposted) I have sent you help. You haven't known you needed help, but I've known. Deep down you've suspected, but it hasn't completely bubbled up in the forefront of your mind, and you won't completely understand yet. Just accept the help. Don't resist. You will see it later and appreciate what I have done. I will never leave you or forsake you. Some others have. They didn't do it on purpose; they just didn't realize they were doing it. Be at peace and accept My love.

John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." Bev Robinson

You will have an opportunity to help someone who needs to be encouraged and to know that someone cares. I will fill your heart with compassion for those less fortunate. Go forth in the strength of My Spirit and Love to be My emissary, says the Lord.

Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.

December 18, 2024. I know you are tempted to judge a certain person. Your thoughts about them are critical. I ask you, “Why do you do this when I have shown you so much grace? Do you want to be judged in the same manner you judge? Change and become more like Me. How would it make you feel if I “nitpicked” every little thing you did wrong? Remember this when you are tempted to judge and it will help you change.

Matthew 7:1-5 “Don’t judge, and then you won’t be judged. For others will treat you as you treat them. And why worry about a speck in the eye of a brother when you have a board in your own? Should you say, ‘Friend, let me help you get that speck out of your eye,’ when you can’t even see because of the board in your own? Hypocrite! First get rid of the board. Then you can see to help your brother.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

December 18, 2024. It is time to enter. Time to enter My Presence. Time to enter My rest and time to enter My joy. Many have been carrying burdens that aren't theirs to carry. Cast them off and enter in. Stop carrying false responsibilities. Cast them off of you and leave it all behind. Cast all your cares on Me. Move on over into this new realm. Rest, joy and peace are yours, enter in.

I Peter 5:7 “casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.”

Hebrews 4:3a “For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said…” Jennifer Peikert

December 18, 2013. (Reposted) I have what is needed. But it is not needed until it is needed. My grace is sufficient in your time of need. Don't presuppose what will happen. I give light enough to see in darkness. When you get to a place where you need more light, it will be there. This way we stay connected and you stay mindful of Me. You look to Me for your way and strength and I look to you as the one who presently gets the job done. You are my hands and feet.

John 14:6-7 "Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me. If you had known Me, you should have known My Father also: and from henceforth you know Him, and have seen Him." Bev Robinson

December 18, 2013. (Reposted) No matter what you feel today about what is happening in the world around, God is at work to bless, increase and multiply you. You are at a time in your life at this moment when things have not measured up to what you were promised. There is the possibility of just running away and hiding until the storm is over. But the Lord is saying to you, "Do not run from your enemy. Face him square on and rebuke him. Command him to leave you, your family and ministry or business alone. Stand firm, raise your shield and use your sword. Win this battle."

Psalms 18:20-21 "The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God." Ras Robinson
