Small Straws by Marsha Burns: When you are looking for a substantial breakthrough, remember that sometimes it is like the breaking of a dam that begins with a small leak and grows bigger as it develops. Be patient, and continue to stay alert to recognize the progress you are making. It will begin with a trickle and grow until the obstacles are completely washed away. 

Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

April 3, 2025. What are you willing to leave in order to follow Me? Jesus had to leave the security of His dwelling place. Andrew, James and John immediately left their profession and followed Jesus. The proud religious rich young ruler couldn’t leave his riches, but I tell you this! My promise of abundance is for those who forsake their desires and follow Me. What are you willing to leave in order to follow Me? 

Matthew 19:29 “And anyone and everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for My name’s sake will receive many [even a hundred] times more and will inherit eternal life.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

April 3, 2016.   (Reposted)   Walk under My blessings. Stay in the center of what I have said to you. Don’t wander to the right or left. Don’t get ahead and don’t lag behind. When you do this, blessings abound. You are in my favor so don’t think poorly of yourself in any way. Don’t run yourself down. Running yourself down and thinking about how bad it is, gets you out of belief. Believe that I always have the best for you. 

Hebrews 11:6 “And it is impossible to please God without belief. Anyone who wants to come to Him must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him.”   Bev Robinson

April 3, 2012. (Reposted)  Your thoughts are slowly turning to returning. This is a good thing not a bad thing. It is good to think ahead and be prepared, but don’t overthink…by spending too much time thinking. The time spent in thinking needs to be in prayer rather than in reasoning. Believe that whatever pops up, I have wisdom to give you and all the problems will be worked through. Think of the problems as challenges which can be overcome not as obstacles which cannot be overcome. Pray for the one who is questioning you. They are questioning because they have been questioned. All of this will be worked out and for everyone’s benefit.

Philippians 4:6-7 “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and thoughts as you live in Christ Jesus.” Bev Robinson

April 3, 2012.   (Reposted)      Receive this admonition!  I want you to always be alert. Throughout My Word in the Old Testament or New Testament I have given, on numerous occasions, instruction for you to be ever ready. Be as watchmen on the wall. Be ever vigilant in prayer morning, noon, and night. Stand firm. Whether it is watching for the enemy and his camp or watching for My return, be on the alert. Act like men, whether male or female, be strong and sturdy. In the natural and the spiritual keep a keen ear and a watchful eye. Through dreams and/or visions, be on the alert. Keep your senses in tune with Mine.

Mark 13:37 “What I say to you I say to all, ‘Be on the alert!'”  Kevin Robinson 

April 3, 2012. (Reposted)  These are the days of seasonal change. Do not panic when new things emerge for what seems no reason at all. This season is full of surprises. But with the wisdom of the ages you will have insight and understanding. Those images that pop into your mind as possibilities are not to be dismissed. As you sleep, I will give clever and inventive revelations. Wait for them. Write them first in your heart and mind. Then record them for posterity. They are from Me. My fountain of grace is as an artesian well. It never stops flowing. This season before you now will set the pattern for the rest of your days. Step up to bat and hit the ball!

Hebrews 4:16 “Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of favor, so that we may receive mercy and find favor for opportune help.”  Ras Robinson

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: You are entering unfamiliar territory, and you will feel a bit lost at first, but know that where you are going is higher and more meaningful to your spiritual growth. You must maintain your sense of balance as you progress so that your transition is well ordered. This is nothing to be afraid of. Move ahead in belief and assurance that I am with you, says the Lord. 

Psalm 56:3 They shall be afraid, but I will trust in You.

April 2, 2025. Oh, that joyous day you were born. All of heaven shouted HALLELUJAH as you entered man’s realm. Don’t you know that all conception comes through Me. I open and close the womb. I knew you before you were even conceived. YOU ARE ETERNAL! Celebrate your birthday whether it is your birthday or not. Celebrate your existence and celebrate the plans I have for you. Celebrate your life and shun regret, putting it far away– CELEBRATE!!

Jeremiah 1:5a “Before I started to put you together in your mother, I knew you.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

April 2, 2025. My Word is alive and actionable. It is experiential and it is life. Let My Word come alive in you today. Let My Word be actionable (let it do what I want it to do in you and through you). I want you to experience My Word to its fullest. Let it live in you. It will transform you and forever change you. Dig deep into My Word and let Me speak to you and transform you.

Hebrews 4:12 “For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Jennifer Peikert

April 2, 2012. (Reposted)  You have a choice. In your mind you’ve wondered if making this choice even matters. In the plans of life, will this small thing make a difference?  You can’t see that it will. There would not be a choice if it didn’t matter. Is this too small a thing to worry Me with?  This is not worrying Me. It is always good to seek My will even in the seemingly small things.  Directions that don’t seem to matter right now will grow into large events, and will make a big difference.  You will see in the near future this seemingly small thing deserves time to seek My will.  This will be big.

Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand. The seven lamps represent the seven eyes that search all around the world.”  Bev Robinson

April 2, 2012.   (Reposted)      Most of you have heard the phrase “birds of a feather, flock together.” Right? We read in the book of Proverbs about the contrast of wisdom and folly. The Lord says, “Become and stay equally united for the peace you long for and desire. Steer clear of those who incline themselves toward foolish behavior and attitudes. Seek wise counsel from Me and from those you see as wise. Find someone to whom you can be equally yoked and accountable, so you will be able to plow up fields that lay before you. I have given you My Spirit. Follow Holy Spirit and His guidance. Walk in love with one another.”

Philippians 2:1-2 “Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.”  Kevin Robinson 

April 2, 2013. (Reposted)  Today is a special day for you. It will not be like any other. God will tell you that today you are His son/daughter. Has He ever said that to you? He spoke this to Jesus. He has spoken it to me on various occasions. It is very humbling, but empowering and endearing. Once you say “Yes” to God about this, He gives you opportunity to ask for the nations just as did Jesus. God will surely give them to you as your inheritance even to the ends of the earth. Glory.

Psalm 2:7-8 “I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. ‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, and the very ends of the earth as Your possession.'”   Ras Robinson

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Reach for Me, says the Lord, especially when you feel discombobulated. Quiet your soul so that you can evaluate what it is that is keeping you from inner peace. You may not be able to do anything to allay your discontent outwardly, but you have all power and authority over your thoughts and emotions. Find that place of stillness in yourself. 

Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

April 1, 2025. My love for you is real; it is tangible. Close your eyes for a moment. Feel My comfort and My embrace. Look around you; look at nature. This was all made for your pleasure and your enjoyment. It is My love gift to you…the flowering plants, the blooming trees, the stars, the moon…all just for you. You are My treasured possessions. I never want you to feel isolated or alone again. I am with you and I love you!

Exodus 19:5 “Now if you hear My voice and obey Me fully and keep My covenant, then out of all nations you will be My treasured possession. Although the whole earth is Mine,”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

April 1, 2025. Just like a ship that has shifted off course, having to realign its navigation systems to get back on course, so have you shifted off course. All you have to do is shift your rudder back to Me. I am your navigation system. Allow Me to guide you. It’s that simple. I am here waiting. Set your focus back to Me; come back to your first love. It’s smooth sailing when I am the Captain of your heart.

Psalms 119:1-8 “You’re blessed when you stay on course, walking steadily on the road revealed by God. You’re blessed when you follow His directions, doing your best to find Him. That’s right – you don’t go off on your own; you walk straight along the road He set. You, God, prescribed the right way to live; now You expect us to live it. Oh, that my steps might be steady, keeping to the course You set; Then I’d never have any regrets in comparing my life with Your counsel. I thank You for speaking straight from Your heart; I learn the pattern of Your righteous ways. I’m going to do what You tell me to do; don’t ever walk off and leave me.” Pam Jackson

April 1, 2012. (Reposted)  Thoughts have come to mind that too much good is happening. You wonder if this will soon come to an end. Corral those thoughts. Don’t allow them to remain in your mind or you will begin doing things that will reject the flow of good. Your mind is a powerful tool. Keep your thoughts in the realm of thankfulness.  You are My child and will receive an inheritance  which is  far beyond what your mind conceives. Don’t allow yourself to think anything but you and yours going from glory to glory. Yes there are obstacles, but the obstacles are there only to propel you on into My good plan for you.

2 Corinthians 10:4-5 “For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds, [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One),” Bev Robinson

April 1, 2012.   (Reposted)      My faithfulness endures the test of time. I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. Just as I have been true to My Word to your forefathers, I will be true to you. I am fulfilling the promises I gave to Abraham, and I will do the same for you. My plans have been, are now, and will be accomplished. Through obedience to Me you experience the fullest form of faithfulness. Embrace Me and My Word. Hear Me succinctly. Heed My voice. Know Me and My Word in every chamber of your heart. Realize every aspect of My love, joy, peace and faithfulness. I AM that I AM.

Deuteronomy 32:4 “As for God, His works are true, and all His ways are judgment: God is faithful, and there is no unrighteousness in Him; just and holy is the Lord.“  Kevin Robinson 

April 1, 2012. (Reposted)  You are struggling still with what you consider to be one of the most important decisions of your life. There seems to be a fork in the path ahead. Two paths are open to you. Both have advantages. It is impossible to take both paths at the same time. You feel a necessity to choose one or the other. The Lord says, “Your main focus must first and foremost be that of Jesus when, by His life, He demonstrated no will of His own but to do the will of the Father in Heaven. As you do this, you will receive of the same favor and power that Jesus received. Ask and keep on asking, seek and keep on seeking, knock and keep on knocking. Your answer is nigh. Take a deep breath and believe. What you hear, shout from the house tops.

Proverbs 3:6 “Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take.”   Ras Robinson

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: When you get overwhelmed with life and circumstances, take a breath. Seek My face, says the Lord. I am greater than any condemnation. I will lead you out of the darkness into the light of life, and liberate you from reproach. I am your strength and your shield. Lean on Me.  

Psalm 61:1-2 Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth I will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

March 31, 2025. There are things in the unseen world that are working on your behalf. In fact, My child, remember that the unseen is more powerful than the seen. I want you to embrace and live in the supernatural world. That realm is available to you NOW if you just believe. Begin to pull down the unseen from heavenly realms into the seen. I have given you the power and authority to do this. Begin to exercise your authority.

2 Corinthians 4:18 “as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.”    Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 31, 2025. You heard it said that if March comes in like a lamb it will go out like a lion. My presence is both lamb and lion. There are times when My strength and power is necessary to carry out My plans. In those times I will come with boldness and power. There are also times when My peace and gentleness is what you require. Allow My power and strength along with peace and gentleness to lead you.

John 1:29 “The next day he saw Jesus coming to him and said, ‘Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!’” Jonas Bohlin

March 31, 2012. (Reposted)  A narrow gate is before you. You have wondered if this is the one for you. I am here to tell you…Yes! It is. This is the one. You passed it by seeing and thinking surely this gate and path is not the one. It is too narrow for me to walk. You have passed it several times without seriously considering it. Once you decide to walk it, you will see it is not confining at all in fact the boundaries are very freeing. It is up to you to decide to walk it. If you decide to do it you will not be alone. I will be guiding each step.

Matthew 7:13-14  “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

March 31, 2012.   (Reposted)      A number of years ago a close friend of mine lost a child in an automobile accident. Another close friend went to visit them during their time of mourning. The one who lost their child said they were greatly ministered to by the one who came over to their home and didn’t say a word but just held their hand. The Lord says, “Just your quiet presence accompanied with empathy is all someone needs. Words can often cloud a difficult situation. You have felt My quiet presence in some of your darkest of days. I sent Holy Spirit as a comforter. Be a quiet witness of My peace and comfort.”

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.”   Kevin Robinson 

March 31, 2012.  (Reposted)  A husband asks his wife, “Do you think I love you as much as I tell you that I do?” She answers, “Yes. I would never hurt you.” He replies, “If I ever thought you did not believe me, it would break my heart!” She smiles at her husband in a reassuring way. He is old now but his heart overflows with foolish love for his wife. He wonders if all that is in his heart could ever be believed. The Lord says, “My children love one another beyond feeling foolish. Most of My children cannot quite process the extent of My love for them. Let go of the brakes. Thrust forward. You will be so glad you did.”

Song of Songs 4:1 “You are beautiful, my darling, beautiful beyond words. Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair falls in waves, like a flock of goats winding down the slopes of Gilead.”   Ras Robinson

The Trumpet by Bill Burns: The clarion call is to come up higher. You can do it because these are the days of elevation. Be done with low living, get out of the valley of despair, and come up to dwell in the house of the Lord. 

Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended, but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: It is a foolish errand to be angry with God. Anger against the Lord is like rolling in the mud and then being angry about getting dirty. All we have to do is take responsibility for our own mess, and line up with the Word of God. 

Ephesians 4:26-27 Be angry, and do not sin; do not let the sun go down upon the provocation to your anger! nor give place to the devil! 

March 30, 2012. (Reposted)  I know you’re frustrated. This frustration is coming across to others as real anger. You don’t want that. Those involved will respond to the anger in an adverse way and not hear the important things you are saying. You have been dwelling on this for a long time and it has built up so much anger in you. It is like you are in a pressure cooker. I am the only One who can process your anger, because I know your heart. Pop off to Me. You need this until you can get it all in a logical thought out way where others can hear what you are saying. Act wisely and do this.

James 3:17 “But the wisdom from above is first of all pure (undefiled); then it is peace-loving, courteous (considerate, gentle). [It is willing to] yield to reason, full of compassion and good fruits; it is wholehearted and straightforward, impartial and unfeigned (free from doubts, wavering, and insincerity).” Bev Robinson

March 30, 2012.   (Reposted)      Lay aside the spirit of timidity. I did not give that particular spirit to you. Instead I have given My power and a complete mindset. For too long My Church has become comfortable within the walls of where they meet together. It is good to assemble together with other believers in worship. Likewise it is good to get out beyond yourselves and deliver My good news to a lost and dying generation. Your dependence cannot be not upon you. I am the one who brings conviction of sin. I need you to play an active role in sharing the new life I bring. The Spirit of the Lord is upon you.

Proverbs 28:1 “The wicked flee when no one is pursuing, but the righteous are bold as a lion.”  Kevin Robinson 

March 30, 2012. (Reposted)  A most precious lady we once knew had the habit of covering her mouth when she spoke. She was not one who liked to draw attention to herself. But just the opposite was true. She was awkward and retiring from the presence of almost everyone who knew her. Her talents were remarkable in every way. We grew to love her deeply. Once I knew she believed that my wife and I really loved and accepted her, I asked her about her noticeable habit. She would never say one way another. She took all this to her premature death and grave. Without reference to our dear friend in any way, the Lord is saying, “If you have done foolishly in exalting yourself, you may lay your hand over your mouth. But all you really need to do is confess your sin, receive your forgiveness and walk in total liberty and joy. Receive My favor.”

Proverbs 30:32 “If you have done foolishly in exalting yourself, or if you have thought evil, lay your hand upon your mouth.”   Ras Robinson

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: If you will set your mind to understand what is happening in the spirit realm, you will discover clarity and strength of purpose. Everything will seem to have been simplified as opposed to the past few months of struggling to break through. Enjoy this season of purity, says the Lord. 

2 Samuel 22:33 It is the Mighty One who strengthens me with might, and has prepared my way without fault.

March 29, 2025. I want you to come against every imagination and every speculation, every fear and every anxiety, every reasoning and every assumption about your situation. These things are carnal and therefore I want you to submit your thoughts to Christ who is the author and finisher of your belief. He knows the end from the beginning and is your Brother! Let every thought become captured by Him and think only God’s thoughts about your situation.

2 Corinthians 10:5 “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,”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 29, 2025. I am speaking to you. Can you hear? Come with Me to your quiet place where you can listen and let Me speak My Words to you. There have been times when you have heard My voice above the noise of your everyday life, but today I want to speak to you in the quiet of intimacy. Come away with Me and be prepared to hear Me like you’ve never heard Me before. Listen to My voice.

Matthew 6:6 “But you, whenever you should pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having locked your door, pray to your Father, to the One in the secret place; and your Father, the One seeing in the secret place shall recompense to you in the open!”    Jonas Bohlin

March 29, 2013. (Reposted)  There are relationships you have been concerned about even worrying to the point of losing sleep. You know worrying is not good for you and it doesn’t solve the problems in any way. Get all of these worrisome thoughts out of you. Record them so that not one of the little sneaks will be left to bother you. Now turn these worries into prayers, thanking Me for handling them all. Everything I do is to accomplish My purposes and bring about good for everyone. Precious one, trust Me.

Philippians 4:6-7 “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

March 29, 2012.   (Reposted)      What is the point? What is all the fuss all about? Is being right really worth all of the commotion, pain, and suffering? You know it shows real maturity not to prove you are correct, even if you are correct. Pride is such an arrogant approach to life. Who are you trying to convince here? It is time to change your stubborn, bull-headed mindset toward one which is gentle and kind. Who really enjoys being around someone who always has to be right? Meekness is a word seldom used anymore. The definition of meek is patient and mild. Today, try to put on a bit of meekness.

Philippians 2:3 “Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.”   Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Stop and take time to appreciate how far you have come. It has been a battle, but you have persevered. You may not realize your progress yet, but you have progressed nonetheless. Savor every moment of victory regardless of how small, knowing that I have brought you this far, says the Lord, and I am with you always. 

Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

March 28, 2025. Perhaps you think you can’t do what I’ve told you to do; so do as Jesus did. It was for the future joy that He endured the cross. Look into the future and look at the good outcome. Hold on to your vision and be confident in what I’ve told you to do. If you don’t know that the instructions are from Me, ask a competent Godly source…not just one who will only agree with you. Press on warrior! 

Hebrews 12:2  “We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our belief. Because of the joy awaiting Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now He is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 28, 2025. Recently my grandson Magnus said to me, “I know when it’s almost my birthday because the trees get leaves again and flowers are everywhere.” Then the Lord said, “Just as I bring new growth every year to show My power and glory, I want to bring a newness to you every day, I want you to change into how I’ve made you, evolving and changing more and more into My image. Don’t become stagnant.”   

Matthew 24:32-35 “Take a lesson from the fig tree. From the moment you notice its buds form, the merest hint of green, you know summer’s just around the corner. So it is with you: When you see all these things, you’ll know He’s at the door. Don’t take this lightly. I’m not just saying this for some future generation, but for all of you. This age continues until all these things take place. Sky and earth will wear out; My Words won’t wear out.” Pam Jackson

March 28, 2012. (Reposted)  Plans are in the making. Your plans will need to go on hold. I have plans that you need to get in touch with. You can do this if you are off of the throne. Place Me on the throne of your life. That is what being filled with the Spirit is all about. It feels strange to let go completely, but this is the best for you. You will be much happier in the long run. Surrender is not a bad thing. It is a good thing if that surrender is to Me. I have plans for you that if you knew them now they would be hard to believe.

1 Corinthians 2:8-12 “but just as it is written, “THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.” For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God.  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God,” Bev Robinson

March 28, 2012.   (Reposted)      It is time for a big dose of tender loving care. Have you taken note of how callous you can be at times? Try and look at situations you are involved in from outside of the box. How would you feel if someone treated you the way you treat those around you? Would you be more attentive? Would you give the same snide remarks or look with disdain upon others? Everyone makes a mistake now and then. Be more supportive of others instead of being condescending. Stop being so self-righteous in regard to the way you handle your interpersonal relationships. Wear the fruit of the Spirit called kindness.

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.”   Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Breakthrough is imminent. You have come a long way and have patiently waited for an opportunity to move ahead, and now is the time when the proverbial fog will clear and the sun will break through the clouds. You can now forge ahead with clarity of mind and renewed strength. A new day is dawning, says the Lord. 

Psalm 42:11 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God.

March 27, 2025. Slow down there “whipper snapper”. Why in such a hurry? Take your time and more importantly wait for My timing. Don’t you know that there is a time for everything? So many times you hear Me but miss the timing. Jesus knew exactly when and where to go to meet the Samaritan woman at the well. Because he was patiently waiting and listened intently to My instructions, a whole city came to salvation. Listen and be patient; slow down! 

Ecclesiastes 3:1 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every matter under the heavens:”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 27, 2012. (Reposted)  Mornings are a good time for you and Me to meet face to face. Other times of the day are fine as well. Our times together not only bless and quicken you but they benefit Me by the pleasures they bring. It means so much to Me that you have learned to visit Me face to face. Many of My children think they cannot seek My face. Others have unhealed relationships with their earthly fathers and, at times, project their hurts from him onto Me. I am a loving and healing Father beyond what you have experienced. Come to Me now. My arms are open. I love you so much.

Psalm 27:8 “When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You, “Your face, O LORD, I shall seek.”  Ras Robinson

March 27, 2012. (Reposted)  You are out of touch with something important going on. You don’t know what to do about it. Right now it is bothering you. Get control of yourself. Be at peace. I have everything under control. Have belief in Me. You are tending to have belief in belief. That is misplaced belief. I always know what is best. I will always do the right thing for you and the other people involved. Their anxiety is picking up on your anxiety and now it is going round and round. You are close to chaos. Exhibit self – control. This is the fruit of My Spirit. Trust Me and be at complete rest.

Galatians 5:22-24 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, belief, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” Bev Robinson

March 27, 2012.   (Reposted)      What is the mark you wish to leave when you leave this life? What is your greatest pursuit? Is it fame, fortune or some other quest to establish your identity? Only you and I know the real answer. Your obituary or epitaph on your tombstone might really depict what sort of legacy you truly have left behind. Establish right now what really is most important in the scope of life. I walked an undeniable path of righteousness in My time upon the Earth. What path are you pursuing? Is the impact you are making temporal or eternal? Choose today whether you will serve Me or mammon. Establish righteousness in your walk.

Proverbs 22:1 “A sterling reputation is better than striking it rich; a gracious spirit is better than money in the bank.”   Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Beloved, you are not a victim. You are victorious in all things when you rely on Me for direction and guidance. When you become one with Me, there is nothing that can overrule or take you down. I am with you and in you. I am your very present help in trouble, says the Lord. 

Psalm 46:1-3 God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.  Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.  Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by His might. Pause. 

March 26, 2025. It is a good thing that you don’t want to disappoint people. But there are some who will take advantage of you. I want you to listen to Me and think about your future. Will your actions right now keep you in line with what I have called you to do? Pleasing Me is more important than pleasing man. A man pleasing spirit will lead you down wrong roads and wrong paths. Seek instead to please Me.

Galatians 1:10  “Now am I trying to win the favor of men, or of God? Do I seek to please men? If I were still seeking popularity with men, I should not be a bond servant of Christ (the Messiah).”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 26, 2025. It is time. Time for you to arise and shine. Can you hear the ticking? I am waiting for you to let Me out in My fullness. Don’t hold Me in any longer. Don’t shrink back. Be courageous! I AM with you always. When I show you or tell you to do something I AM right there with you to accomplish it as you step out. Don’t be afraid, I AM with you!

Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine O Jerusalem; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.”

Joshua 1:9 “Haven’t I commanded you; be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Jennifer Peikert

March 26, 2012. (Reposted)  You are making the right choices. You have consistently insisted on doing the right thing, even in the face of opposition and with many of those around you making poor choices. They don’t care what others are going through, but you see and care. This gives Me great pleasure. I know what you have been up against and I am so proud of you. Some others don’t see what they are doing… how they are not caring. Some will see you as an example and change some of their ways. Keep making right choices and doing the right thing. Your actions and the changed actions of others will change the atmosphere.

1 Chronicles 4:9-10. “Jabez was more honorable than his brothers; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.”  Jabez called upon the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that You would bless me and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm so that it might not bring me pain!” And God granted what he asked.”  Bev Robinson

March 26, 2012.  (Reposted)  You have little to no idea how precious you are to Me. I think of you all the time. You are never out of My sight because I will not let harm nor your enemies attack you. More and more I am looking to reveal My goodness and kindness to you. Both flow through you like a sieve to others around you. You could not even count the number of people who have looked and who look for guidance and restoration through what they see and sense through you. You are in a phase of your life now where you are out of control. It is now as it should be. You have made Me your Lord and have stepped down from the throne of your life. You are My precious one.

Psalm 36:7-9 “How precious is your unfailing love, O God! All humanity finds shelter in the shadow of Your wings. You feed them from the abundance of Your own house, letting them drink from Your river of delights.  For You are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.”  Ras Robinson

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Shut out the noise of the world and current circumstances, and listen for My still small voice. When someone disrespects you, do not retaliate. Forgive! If you do not forgive them you will not be forgiven. As hard as it might seem, you have to be the better, kinder person if you are to receive the blessing. Live your life above reproach, and you will be rewarded, says the Lord. 

Ephesians 4:31-32 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

March 25, 2025. You look around you and recognize trouble. You are sensing that something is amiss. Yes, My child, this is the gift of discerning of spirits. Don’t become too infatuated with knowing. In your knowing, make these things a matter of prayer. I give supernatural gifts for the supernatural workings of those gifts. Refrain from condemnation, judgment and criticism in what you see, which is in the natural. This gift is for the common good and to benefit others!

1 Corinthians 12:10  “to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues.”

1 Corinthians 12:7  “Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 25, 2025. How brightly are you shining? Are you at 100 watts or are you at 50 watts? Are you shining or are you just flickering? It’s time for you to fully shine in My light. When you try to shine in your own power, you will start to flicker then you will completely burn out. So let Me charge you daily so you shine brighter and brighter. You will be a light in the darkness.

2 Corinthians 4:6  “For God is the One having told light to radiate from darkness, who radiated in our hearts for the illumination of the knowledge of the glory of God in the person of Jesus Christ.”  Pam Jackson

March 25, 2012. (Reposted)  Something has been announced and you wonder if the right choice has been made. You think it may be premature. It came as a surprise, something completely unexpected. Someone has been passed by and you aren’t sure this is good. This is something you are going to have to trust authorities about. Don’t express yourself until you give it some more thought and prayer. Just because it doesn’t seem good is not reason to get in an opposition mode. Take your thoughts captive to Me. Don’t go underground and say things you will be sorry for later. Don’t spread strife in any way. Rest in absolutely thorough peace with Me.

Proverbs 28:25-26 “He who is of a greedy spirit stirs up strife, but he who puts his trust in the Lord shall be enriched and blessed. He who leans on, trusts in, and is confident of his own mind and heart is a [self-confident] fool, but he who walks in skillful and godly Wisdom shall be delivered.” Bev Robinson

March 25, 2012.   (Reposted)      Recently the computer on which I write this word lost its Internet connection. I tried several different combinations in an attempt to resolve the issue with the portable modem. I downloaded software trying to make the system operate properly with no success. Finally I tried another computer and found a trial version of a word program to complete my daily task. Though it is somewhat delayed, I hear the Lord saying, “Persist in your pursuits.  Don’t give up.  Many have stopped short of the blessings I have and have had in store for them.  Trust Me to deliver to you the provision I have promised.”

Psalm 119:81 (NASB) “My soul languishes for Your salvation; I wait for Your Word.” Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Shut out the noise of the world and current circumstances, and listen for My still small voice. Put away all doubt and fear and enter My presence with thanksgiving in your heart. I will speak clearly when you quiet your soul. Never doubt My ability to direct your path and show you the way, says the Lord. 

James 1:5-8 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 belief, 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.

March 24, 2025. I know you feel alone in this season but you are not. You have a myriad of spiritual beings waiting for your command. I have commissioned angels to be ready to move as you speak My Word over your situation. When I tell you that I will never leave you or forsake you, that is the truth. Don’t listen to a lie that would tell you differently! Begin to speak My Word over your situation – the angels are listening!! 

Psalm 103:20 “Bless the Lord, O you His angels, you mighty ones who do His Word, obeying the voice of His Word!”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 24, 2025. There is a very clear distinction between right and wrong. I desire earnestly that you choose right. There is a “right” way to live. There is a “right” way to worship Me. There is “right” doctrine. My Word and My Spirit will direct you to the “right” choices in every area of your life. When you choose according to My Word, you never need to apologize. Following My ways will always bring you to the “right” place! 

Hebrews 4:12 “For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.”   Jonas Bohlin

March 24, 2012. (Reposted)  A recent transaction was made. You were there when it happened but you didn’t realize it was that important. You will see the results for many years to come. I have been watching you for a long time. You were somewhat aware of My presence but not to the extent that I have been aware of you. The transaction made was a result of your obedience. Even at the times you were making the right choices, your obedience was much more important than you thought. I see you seeking My peace which is different from the world’s peace. I extend grace all the time, but obedience is what brings abundant blessings.

2 Chronicles 16:9a “For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.” Bev Robinson

March 24, 2012.   (Reposted)      Don’t keep modifying the arrangement of your surroundings with the expectation that the atmosphere will be transformed. Rather cleanse your heart. By spring-cleaning your heart you will see dramatic changes that you could not imagine. Your attitude will be adjusted and your outlook will change. With the adjustment of your heart comes new rhythm to your steps. Proverbs 19:21 says, “Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but the counsel of the LORD, it will stand.” Many people get caught up in seeking the wisdom of many counselors and end up getting more confused than when they began. When was the last time you sought out My counsel?

Proverbs 16:1 “We can make our own plans, but the Lord gives the right answer.” Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: You must exhibit honesty and integrity in all you say and do. When you profess the saving grace of Christ and do not live up to the Gospel, you are not a credible witness. It is not enough to be a hearer of the Word of truth; you must also be a doer, says the Lord. 

James 1:23-25 For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in all he does.

March 23, 2012. (Reposted)  Something you have never seen has entered your mind. It seems plausible enough and fits in with something else which seems good. But as of now you don’t know if this is of Me. You are also thinking what do I need to do to find out? The best thing is to pray for My perfect will. Bind all barriers to this being accomplished. Pray for the right time for this to occur. Eventually My plans will be accomplished but you can hasten the day by praying and believing. This is the power you have. When you give your will and timing all to Me, I accomplish great things through you.

Luke 11:1-2 “And it came to pass in His being in a certain place praying, as He ceased, said a certain one of His disciples to Him, O Lord, teach us to pray! as also John taught his disciples. And He said unto them, When you pray, say, Our Father, the one in the heavens, let Your name be sanctified. Let Your kingdom come. Let Your will become, as in heaven, also on the earth.” Bev Robinson

March 23, 2012. (Reposted)  Rise up today to the full stature I have given you. Think of it as if you had a football that needed more air inside in order to properly perform. You insert the needle from an air pump and fill the football to peak performance. At peak performance, the football can be kicked greater distances and heights. Everyone leaks to some extent. Most leak daily. Last weekend we drove over two hours to gain our destination where we would share about repentance and experiencing the Kingdom of God. We prayed in tongues that whole trip. And when we stood before the people to share, they and we could tell that we had been raised up for that occasion. That is why God was able to impact so many lives. Rise up today.

Jude 1:20 “But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy belief [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit.”  Ras Robinson 

March 23, 2012.   (Reposted)   Call off the dogs. Stop hounding yourself into the ground. You can at times be your own worst critic. Being constructively critical is one thing, but you have become merciless towards yourself. Do you realize you have been exonerated from your past, 

and present sins? I wiped your slate clean by the shedding of My blood. You are not guilty as charged by the enemy or yourself.  You have been acquitted of your seemingly unpardonable sins. Your sins have been forgiven. I have forgiven you. Can you forgive yourself? Hound dogs follow a distinctive scent. Your scent is fresh and new. Don’t put on old garments of lies and deception.

2 Corinthians 5:16-17 “Therefore from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer. Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold new things have come.”  Kevin Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Be grateful for the things that really matter, and refuse to fuss about things of little or no consequence. This is a day in which you can go beyond flesh issues to actually excel spiritually. Leave the past behind and press toward the mark of your high calling in Jesus Christ. 

Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

March 22, 2025. In order to walk in divine health, you must believe what My Scriptures say. Begin to decree and declare Divine Health to yourself. Do not claim a disease as yours by saying “my arthritis” or “my cancer”, etc. When you focus on the disease it just increases. Do as I instruct and let the healing process begin. Refuse sickness…don’t think about it again. Jesus took all your sickness to the cross – give it again to Him today.

Isaiah 53:5 “But He was pierced for our transgressions; He was crushed for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with His wounds we are healed.”

Jeremiah 30:17 “For I will restore health to you and will heal you of your wounds. It is a declaration of Adonai.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 22, 2025. Your desire to honor and glorify Me brings joy to Me. I love you and I love to receive honor and glory from you. I call you to bear fruit in your life. Can you do that on your own? Of course not! My Son is the vine and you are the branches. You cannot bear fruit of yourself, but as a branch of the Vine, much fruit WILL be produced. Honor Me by bearing much fruit.

John 15:8 “My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.”    Jonas Bohlin

March 22, 2013. (Reposted)  There is a war going on. This is nothing new; it has been going on for ages and eons. It started with Lucifer.  The reason you can see it in others is because it is on you. You recoil? Do you have the courage to examine yourself? This revelation comes from Me with absolutely no condemnation. I say this to help you rid yourself of rebellion and defiance. These are powerful strongmen that have caused problems among many for eons. Bind and cast these powerful evil spirits from you. Now listen and obey from this point on. You will see transformation in yourself, then you will be able to pray and help free others.

Matthew 12:28-29 “But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.  Or how can anyone enter the strong man’s house and carry off his property, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.” Bev Robinson

March 22, 2013. (Reposted)  One person was passively resisting your leadership. This was no problem until another joined in the resistance. This strategy was born of the devil in a spirit of fear and timidity. Through this, the enemy of your soul is seeking to back you off what you received as instructions from Me. A lot is at stake here. Here is the answer. Let devotion and brotherly love guide you in how you now respond. These persons do not see themselves as resisting. Honor them, but be diligent and fervent in spirit as you serve the Lord. You are not timid so don’t act like it. I have given you all the authority and power you will ever need.

Romans 12:10-11 “Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.” 

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.” Ras Robinson 

Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Do the best you can with where you are and what you have, and I will do the rest. You can count on Me to bring you through unsettling times to gain the victory over all that has become a challenge to you. You belong to Me, and I take care of My own, says the Lord. Put your belief and trust in Me. 

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.

March 21, 2025.  We don’t consider the fellowship of His suffering very often but this is what the Lord impressed upon me today. “Don’t let your suffering be for naught. When others reject you, bless them. When they hate you, love them. If they take from you, give them more. I offer you the “upside down” world of the Kingdom. Suffer through the rejection to find the reward. I have called you to be different.”

Luke 6:27-31  “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

March 21, 2025. Can you hear the music? There’s a symphony playing, are you listening? Just as the wind rustles through the trees, your worship moves the very heart of Heaven. I want you to experience the sounds of Heaven on the earth. Come away with Me. Let’s get lost in the rhythm of your worship. I will silence the angels just to hear you worship Me in truth. In My presence you will find every answer you need.

John 4:23-24  “It’s who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That’s the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself—Spirit. Those who worship Him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration.”   Pam Jackson

March 21, 2013. (Reposted)  There is more than one area which concerns you in decisions that have not yet been made. It isn’t time yet for these decisions to be finalized. Do not project yourself too often into the future because you can get quickly into the “what ifs.” There are plenty of things that you need to be doing now that will keep your time occupied. If your mind goes too often into the future you won’t apply it effectively to the present work at hand.  Think enough so that you will be prepared but not enough that worry will have a chance to come in your door. Worry stands always ready to come.

Philippians 4:6-7 “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Bev Robinson

March 21, 2013. (Reposted) The Lord wants you healthy and strong in body, soul and spirit. This is His standard for your life. It is the bar set to show your progress in Him. Jesus, God’s only Son is in you as your source for everything you do. He keeps you in step and in connection with the rest of God’s family, the church. He provides your breath. He provides every drop of blood in your veins. The breath and blood of Jesus is the secret of your power to be strong. I say unto you today, “Be strong and very courageous for I am about to give victory over the giants in your land.  This is your reward for being healthy and strong.”

Ephesians 4:15-16    “God wants us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love-like Christ in everything. We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. He keeps us in step with each other. His very breath and blood flow through us, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.”  Ras Robinson
