Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns: Take this day to reflect on the goodness of the Lord. Instead of moaning and complaining about your troubles, spend time being grateful for your salvation and His provision and blessings. He is worthy of praise.
Psalm 27:13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
February 21, 2025. Self-check today. I want you to examine yourself and see if there is any self-promotion in you? Do you know that what is done in secret will be rewarded openly by Me. It is when you stay low and humble that you will be exalted. I am the One who makes your name great! Others will shout your name in the streets when you go about doing good. Keep your focus on doing good instead of making yourself known.
Matthew 6:3-4 “But when you do a kindness to someone, do it secretly—don’t tell your left hand what your right hand is doing. And your Father, who knows all secrets, will reward you.”
Genesis 12:2b “I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.” puts you relying on yourself. Just do what I’m telling you to do, even if it’s hard, don’t let fear keep you from doing what you need to do.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
February 21, 2025. Fear and intimidation are not from Me, I do not bring fear to My children. When you are in fear it will limit My ability to work through you. In Me you can do all things, but fear and intimidation will put you outside of Me and puts you relying on yourself. Just do what I’m telling you to do, even if it’s hard, don’t let fear keep you from doing what you need to do.
Proverbs 29:25-26 “The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever leans on, trusts in, and puts his confidence in the Lord is safe and set on high. Many crave and seek the ruler’s favor, but the wise man waits for justice from the Lord.” Pam Jackson
February 21, 2013. (Reposted) You are on track. You got off for a while, but now you’re back. Do whatever it takes to stay where you are. I have blessings ready for you at every turn…large and small. The small ones especially cause intimacy between us as good friends. No one knows what’s happening but just us two. I always extend favor more than you can ever comprehend, but the great blessings come from obedience. You don’t have to sacrifice to receive blessings. They are supernaturally natural when you are obedient. There are strong desires in your heart for outward results in some areas. Don’t despair. I know your heart. You will produce good fruit.
Galatians 5:22-25 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also be conformed to the Spirit.” Bev Robinson
February 21, 2013. (Reposted) My love is more powerful than My judgment. Mercy triumphs over judgment so that My love can flow in a river of mercy. You need to know that My heart is compassionate and warm toward you. There is no punishment or malice in My heart waiting to scold or attack you. Do not be afraid of the God who adores you and desires good and overflowing blessings for you. By no means and in no way should you dread My intentions for you. The Lord says today, “Yes, if I was an angry and revengeful God, you would be in trouble due to some sins you have committed. But those words do not describe Me and who I really am. I love you and can’t wait to send more blessings to you.”
John 12:47-48 “I will not judge those who hear Me but don’t believe Me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject Me and My message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken.” Ras Robinson
