Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Refuse to worry about people and things that you have no responsibility for or control over. You have enough to attend to where you do have authority without reaching beyond your rightful limits. Release yourself from any liability that is not rightfully yours and stay within the limitations of what you are in charge of. 

1 Thessalonians 4:9-12 But concerning brotherly love you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another; and indeed you do so toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, that you increase more and more; that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to do your own things and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you, that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.

Micah 6

Hear indeed what the LORD said! Rise up, plead with the mountains and let the hills hear your voice! Hear, O mountains, the judgment of the LORD and O ravines, foundations of the earth! For there is a case with the LORD against His people; and with Israel He will plead. O My people, what did I to you, or how did I trouble you? Answer Me.  For I led you out of the land of Egypt; and from out of the house of slavery I ransomed you. And I sent out before your face Moses and Aaron and Miriam. O My people, remember indeed what Balak king of Moab planned against you! and what Balaam son of Beor answered to him, from the rushes unto Gilgal, so that the righteousness of the LORD should be known. By what means should I overtake the LORD? Shall I take hold of my God the highest? Shall I overtake Him with a whole burnt-offering, with calves of a year old, no. Shall the LORD favorably receive a thousand rams, or myriads of hearty winter yearlings, no. Shall I give my first-born for my sin offering, no, the fruit of my belly for impiety of my soul, no. He explained to you, O man, what is good or what the LORD requires from you; but only to execute equity and to love mercy and to be prepared to go with your God. The voice of the LORD shall be called upon in the city and He shall deliver ones fearing His name. Hear, O tribe! and who shall adorn the city? Is there not fire and the house of the lawless one treasuring up treasures of lawless deeds and with unrighteous insolence? Shall the lawless one be justified by a yoke balance scale, or by a bag of deceitful weights, of which they filled their riches of impiety and the ones dwelling it spoke lies and their tongue was exalted in their mouth, no. And I tormented you for extinction on account of your sins. You shall eat and in no way be filled up. And I shall banish you to yourself and you shall be forsaken and in no way should you be preserved; and as many as should be preserved shall be delivered up unto  the broadsword. You shall sow, but you shall not reap; you shall compress the olive, but in no way should you anoint with olive oil; and wine and in no way shall you drink; and the laws of My people shall be obliterated. For you kept the ordinances of Omri and all the works of the house of Ahab. And you went by their plans, so that I should deliver you unto extinction and the ones dwelling her for a hissing; and you shall receive scorn of peoples.

May 16, 2024. I am in the stillness, I am in the clamor. My voice can be a whisper and a shout. Don’t let the differences confuse you. Man tries to box Me in and make Me sound a certain way. Here it is, I am the Creator and I’m very creative. I speak differently to different people. Open your spiritual ears and you will experience all that I have for you. I Am Who I Am.

Exodus 3:14 “And God said to Moses, I Am Who I Am and What I Am and I Will Be What I Will Be; and He said, You shall say this to the Israelites: I Am has sent me to you!” Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 16, 2024. Religious folks tend to make bad decisions. Although their hearts are wanting to please Me, their priorities tend to show that the rules are more important than the Ruler and that godly principles are more important than godly people. When you are making decisions concerning others, ask this question: Are you freeing people to live or putting people in bondage with your religion? Purpose today in your heart that you will set people free with your words and your love.

Matthew 12:1-2 “At that time on the Sabbaths Yeshua (Jesus) went through the corn fields. His disciples became hungry and began to pluck heads of corn and eat them. But when the Pharisees saw this, they said to Him, “Look, Your disciples are doing what is not permitted on Shabbat (the Sabbath)”.  Budd Rodgers

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Put your priorities in order so that you can prosper in all things. Every thought, every decision, every action should be according to what is right and just, says the Lord. Only then will you be rewarded for your efforts. 

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Micah 5
The Coming Ruler
Now the daughter shall be obstructed He ordered conflict for us. They shall strike with a rod upon the jaw the tribes of Israel. And you, Bethlehem, of the house of Ephratah, are very few being among thousands of Judah; from out of you to me shall come forth the one being for ruler of Israel; and His goings forth were from the beginning, from eon of days. On account of this, He will appoint them unto a time of giving birth. She shall give birth and the remnants of their brethren shall return unto the sons of Israel. And He shall stand and tend in strength of the LORD; and in the glory of the name of the LORD their God they shall exist; for now He shall be magnified unto the uttermost parts of earth.

Assyria Mounts Up
And this shall be the peace, whenever the Assyrian should come upon our land and whenever he should mount upon our place. And there shall be roused up against Him seven shepherds and eight strikes of men. And they shall tend Assyria with a broadsword and the land of Nimrod at her trench. And He shall rescue from Assyria whenever it should come against your land and whenever it should mount over your borders.

The Vestige
And the vestige of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples, as the dew from the LORD falling, and as lambs upon wild grass; so that it should be gathered to no one, nor should stand among the sons of men. And the vestige of Jacob will be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among cattle in the forest and as a cub among the flocks of sheep, in which manner whenever He should go through and draw apart to seize His prey by force and there should be none rescuing. Your hand shall be raised up high against the ones afflicting You and all Your enemies shall be utterly destroyed. And it will be in that day, says the LORD, I will utterly destroy your horses from out of your midst and I will destroy your chariots. And I will utterly destroy the cities of your land and I will remove all your fortresses. And I will utterly destroy your potions from out of your hands; and ones declaring fortunes shall not be to you. And I will utterly destroy your carved images and your monuments from out of your midst. And no longer should you do obeisance to the works of your hands. And I will cut your sacred groves from out of your midst; and I will obliterate your cities. And I will execute in anger and in rage vengeance among the nations, because they listened not. 

May 15, 2024. The lyrics say, “Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me…”. I say to you, come sail away with Me. I am the best decision for the day. Let Me lift your head, let Me encourage you. I will fill your mind with good things. When you think on the positive, negativity has to flee. I will never cause doubt or worry. My Kingdom FAR outweighs the life of flesh. When you follow Me – happiness WILL come!

Hebrews 12:2 “looking to Jesus the head and perfection of the belief, who, instead of the joy being situated before Him, endured the cross, disdaining the shame and has sat at the right of the throne of God.” Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 15, 2024. Decree your victory. I have given you the victory. Don’t stay in a defeated mentality. Don’t let the devil stop you. Don’t stand still. Speak, decree and yes, even shout. Too many of My sons and daughters have not taken the position of victory. It is yours, take it. I have plans for you. Stop listening to the enemy. Listen to what I am saying. You are more than a conqueror and you are a victor.

I Samuel 17:45-47 “Then David said to the Philistine, ‘You come to me with a broadsword, with a spear and with a shield. But I come to you in the name of the Lord  God of hosts, the God of the battle array of Israel, whom you berate today. And the Lord shall shut you up today by my hand and I will kill you and I will remove your head from you and I will give your carcass and the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that it is not by the broadsword and spear the Lord delivers; for the war is of the Lord and the Lord shall deliver you into our hands.”  Jennifer Peikert

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Check yourself to determine how you are treating those around you. Remember that what you do to others will be done to you. See that you show the same respect to the people around you as you expect from them. 

Romans 14:8-10 For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living. But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

Micah 4
The Last of the Days
And at the last of the days the mountain of the LORD will be apparent, readied upon the tops of the mountains and it shall rise up high above the hills; and peoples shall hasten to it. And many nations shall go and shall say, Come, we should ascend unto the mountain of the LORD and unto the house of the God of Jacob; and they shall show us His way and we shall go by His roads. For from out of Zion shall go forth the law and the Word of the LORD from out of Jerusalem. And He shall judge between many peoples and shall completely refute strong nations unto afar. And they shall cut their broadswords into plows and their spears into sickles. And no longer should a nation raise up a broadsword against a nation and no longer should they learn to wage war. And each shall rest underneath his grapevine and each underneath his fig-tree. And there shall not be one frightening them, because the mouth of the LORD almighty spoke these things. For all the peoples shall go each in his own way; but we shall go in the name of the LORD our God into the eon and beyond.

Future Promise of Nationhood
In that day, says the LORD, I will gather together her being broken and her being thrust away. I will take in even whom I thrusted away. And I will make her being broken into a vestige and her being thrust away into a mighty nation. And the LORD shall reign over them on mount Zion, from the present and unto the eon. And you, O tower of the flock, austere daughter of Zion, unto you shall come and shall enter in the head of the foremost kingdom of Babylon to the daughter of Jerusalem. And now, why did you know bad things? Was not a king in you? Or has your counsel perished? For your pangs hold firmly as one giving birth. Travail and take courage, O daughter of Zion, as the one giving birth! For now you shall come forth from the city and shall encamp in the plain and shall come unto Babylon. From there He shall rescue you and from there He shall ransom you, the LORD your God, from the hand of your enemies. And now many nations were assembled against you saying, We shall rejoice and scrutinize over Zion with our eyes. But they knew not the devices of the LORD and perceived not His counsel. For He gathered them as sheaves for the threshing-floor. Rise up and thresh them, O daughter of Zion! For I will make your horns iron and your hoofs I will make brass and I will dissolve many peoples. And you shall present to the LORD their abundance, even their strength to the LORD of all the earth. 

May 14, 2024. Some of you think you have disappointed Me so there’s no use in trying anymore. That couldn’t be further from the truth. My love for you covers a MULTITUDE of sin. There is no way I can be disappointed in you because I know the end from the beginning. I see you as spotless and perfect because of My Son. Your shortcomings and failures may be evident to you but they aren’t to Me. I see you as My magnificent child.

1 Peter 4:8 “But before all things having the intense love among yourselves; for the love covers a multitude of sins;”   

Robin Robinson Bohlin May 14, 2024. Regardless of what you face in life both good and bad, I want your response to Me, the Living God, to be full of praise and rejoicing! I want this principle to be taught to My children at a young age. Above all things, give praise and adoration. I desire this from all My creatures both saved and unsaved. If you are not doing this every day, today would be the best day to get started!

1 Chronicles 16:31-36 “Be glad O heavens and the earth rejoice! Let them say among the nations: “Adonai is reigning!” The sea shall resonate with the fullness of it; let the field exult and all the things  in it. Then the trees of the grove shall be glad before the face of Adonai, for He comes to judge the earth. Make acknowledgment to Adonai for good, for His mercy endures forever. And say, “Deliver us, O God of our deliverance! And gather us and rescue us from out of the nations! To praise Your name the holy One; to boast in Your praises.” Blessed be Adonai, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And all the people shall say “Amen.” And they gave “Praise to Adonai.”   Budd Rodgers

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Beloved, the more you establish order in your life, the more freedom you can enjoy. Refuse to get bogged down with things that have no eternal value. Rather focus on the spiritual aspects of your life and being. Seek to use the gifts you have been given so that you can produce the fruit of the Spirit, says the Lord. 

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

Micah 3
The Leaders Rebuked
And He shall say, Hear indeed, O heads of Jacob and O remnant of the house of Israel! Is it not for you to know equity? O ones detesting the good things and seeking the wicked things; seizing by force their skins from them and their flesh from their bones; in which manner they devoured the flesh of My people and their skins they flayed from them and their bones they fractured in pieces as flesh for the kettle and as meats for the pot. Thus they shall cry out to the LORD and He will not listen to them. And He shall turn His face from them in that time, because they were wicked in their practices. Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets, of the ones misleading My people; the ones biting with their teeth and proclaiming peace upon them and when nothing was put into their mouth, they even sanctified a war against  them. On account of this there shall be night to you instead of a vision; and darkness will be to you for divination; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets and the day shall darken upon them. And the ones seeing the dreams shall be disgraced; and the clairvoyants shall  be ridiculed; and all these shall speak ill against them; because there is not one heeding them. Surely I shall fill up strength in Spirit of the LORD and judgment and might,  to report to Jacob of his impiety and to Israel of his sins. Hear indeed these things, O leaders of the house of Jacob and, O remnants  of the house of Israel! the ones abhorring equity and all the ones perverting straight things; the ones building Zion with blood and Jerusalem with injustice. Her leaders judge with bribes and her priests answer with a wage and her prophets are divining with silver; but upon the LORD they rest upon, saying, is not the LORD among us? In no way shall bad things come upon us.  On account of this, because of you, Zion shall be plowed as a field and Jerusalem will be as a vacant storehouse of fruits and the mountain of the house as a place of the forest. 

May 13, 2024. The only bounds you have are the bounds you place upon yourself. I tell you that you and your mind are limitless. There is nothing you cannot do! The weight of the world is seeking to keep you constrained. But if you will just let go and let your mind imagine all that there is to believe, you will be freed from the limits of this world. My world is beyond the outer limits, beyond all that you can imagine.

Luke 1:37 “For with God nothing is ever impossible and no Word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 13, 2024. Have you been resistant to speaking My truth no matter where you may be? I see that you fear offending others. It is a good thing not to offend a brother, but that offense is thwarted when you go ahead and speak the truth with true love in your heart. Trust Me that I have prepared your heart and the heart of the other person. My Son spoke the truth to the woman at the well.

Ephesians 4:15-16 “but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ, from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.” Jonas Bohlin

The Trumpet by Bill Burns:

May 12, 2024: You have heard My word, and it has declared your potential and established the possibilities of that which I am bringing you into. My word will be performed in your life as you believe it and exercise your right by way of freewill to have victory over all of the works of the enemy. I declare that you are able to rise up in Spirit and defeat whatever has established itself against you. Receive healing and be well, says the Lord.

Micah 2

Destruction of Israel and Judah Foretold
They came devising troubles and working evils on their beds and together during the day they lifted not their hands to God. And they desired fields and they plundered orphans and tyrannized households and plundered a man and his house, a man and his inheritance. On account of this, thus says the LORD, Behold, I devise against this tribe bad things, of which in no way should you lift your necks and in no way should you be able to go straight;
for it is a wicked time. In that day there shall be taken up against you a parable and a lament shall be wailed in a strain, saying, With misery we were miserable; the portion of my people was measured out with a measuring line and there was none restraining him to return. Your fields were divided. On account of this, there will not be for you one putting a measuring line for a lot in the assembly of the LORD. Weep not tears, nor burst into tears over these things! For He will not thrust away the scorn. The One saying, The house of Jacob provoked to anger the Spirit of the LORD; are these His practices? Are not His Words good with Him and straight going? And in former times My people opposed for enmity against His peace; His skin they flayed to remove hope of the conflict of war. The ones leading My people shall be thrown from out of their luxurious houses. Because of their wicked practices they were pushed out. Approach to everlasting mountains! Rise up and go! for there is not to you this rest. Because of uncleanness you were corrupted by corruption. You were pursued by no one pursuing. Your spirit established lying, it tricked you with wine and for strong drink; and it will be from the drop of this people.

The Gathering of the Remnant

In being gathered Jacob shall be brought together with all. In looking out I shall look out for the remnant of Israel. Together I will establish their return, as sheep in affliction; as a flock in the midst of their fold, they leap out because of men. Ascend through the breach before in front of them! They cut through and went through the gate and came forth through it; and their king went forth before in front of them; and the LORD shall lead them. 

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

When issues of life overwhelm you, and you feel like you are drowning in things too difficult to deal with, know that I hold you in the palm of My hand, says the Lord. Never stop believing that I am with you and for you and that I will bring you through every challenge. All you must do is have faith and believe that I will. Nothing is too big or beyond My reach. 

Luke 1:37 For with God nothing will be impossible.

Micah 1
Judgment on Israel and Judah

And came to pass the Word of the LORD to Micah the one of the Morasthite, in the days of Jotham and Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, over what he saw concerning Samaria and concerning Jerusalem. Hear, O peoples, all the words! and take heed, O earth and all the ones in it! Even the LORD God will be among you for a testimony — the LORD from out of His holy house. For behold, the LORD goes forth from out of His place and He will go down and will mount upon the heights of the earth. And the mountains shall be shaken from beneath Him and the valleys shall melt away as beeswax in front of fire and as water being carried down in a descent. All these things are on account of the impiety of Jacob and because of the sin of the house of Israel. What is the impiety of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what is the sin of the house of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem? And I will make Samaria for a storehouse of fruits of the field and for planting a vineyard. And I will tear down in chaos her stones; and her foundations I will uncover. And all her carved images I will cut in pieces and all her hires shall burn in fire and all her idols I shall establish for extinction, because she gathered together of the hires of harlotry and of the hires of harlotry He eradicated. Because of this she shall beat her chest and wail. She shall go barefoot and naked. She shall make a beating of the breast as dragons and mourning as the daughters of sirens. For her calamity holds firmly; because it went unto Judah; and it touched unto the gate of My people, unto Jerusalem. O ones in Gath, do not magnify yourselves! And, O ones in Baceim, do not rebuild of your house with laughter! Strew earth on your laughter! Her inhabiting well her cities did not come forth. Her inhabiting Zaanan to beat her chest for the house next to her; she shall receive from your calamity of grief. Who began to act for good to her dwelling in griefs? for bad things came down from the LORD upon the gates of Jerusalem; even noise of chariots and ones riding. Dwelling Lachish is the head of sin to the daughter of Zion; for in you they found the impious deeds of Israel. On account of this He shall grant ones to be sent forth unto the inheritance of Gath, the vain houses; for they became vanity to the kings of Israel; until they should bring the heirs to you, O inhabitant of Lachish, your inheritance. Unto Adullam glory of the daughter of Israel shall come. Shave and shear for your delightful children, widening your shaving as an eagle, for they were taken captive from you. 

May 11, 2024. There are those that I have placed in your life that deserve honor. Some because of the position that they hold in your life and some because of the impact they have made. Some, like your mother, have both…a position that God says to honor and also, in most cases, a person that has impacted your life. Step into a place of honoring the person who brought you into the world. You are surely not an accident!

Ephesians 6:2-3 “HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER (which is the first commandment with a promise), SO THAT IT MAY BE WELL WITH YOU, AND THAT YOU MAY LIVE LONG ON THE EARTH.” Jonas Bohlin

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

You will have opportunities to deal with unresolved issues at this time, and it will be in your flow to do so. Do not be afraid to take drastic measures when necessary. It is time to clear the slate and begin again. You will be glad and relieved that you did. 

Colossians 3:23-24 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

1 John 5:1-21

Love God
Every one believing that Jesus is the Christ, is engendered by God; and every one loving the One engendering, loves also the One being engendered by Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, whenever we love God and should keep His Commandments. For this is the love of God, that the Commandments of His we should keep; and His Commandments are not heavy. For every one being engendered by God overcomes the world; and this is the victory in the overcoming the world — the belief of ours. Who is the one overcoming the world, unless it be the one believing that Jesus is the Son of God? This is the One coming by water and blood — Jesus the Christ; not by the water only, but by the water and the blood; and the Spirit is the One witnessing, for the Spirit is the truth. For three are the Ones bearing witness in the heaven — the Father and the Word and the Holy Spirit; and the three in One are. And three are the Ones witnessing upon the earth, the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are in the One. If the witness of the men we receive, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has witnessed concerning His Son. The one believing in the Son of God, he has the witness in himself; the one not believing in God, has made Him a liar, for he has not believed in the witness which God has witnessed concerning His Son. And this is the witness — that God gave to us eternal life and this life is in His son. The one having the Son, has the life; the one not having the Son of God, does not have life. These things I wrote to you, to the ones believing in the name of the Son of God; that you should know that you have eternal life and that you should believe in the name of the Son of God.

Asking in Confidence
And this is the confidence which we have with Him, that if anything we should ask according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, what ever we should ask, we know that we have the requests which we ask from Him. If anyone should see his brother sinning a sin not to death, he shall ask and He shall give to him life, to the ones not sinning to death. There is sin to death; not concerning that do I say that he should ask. Every unrighteousness is sin; and there is sin not to death. We know that every one being engendered of God does not sin; but the one engendered of God keeps himself and the wicked one does not touch him. We know that we are of God and the whole world is situated to the evil one. And we know that the Son of God has come and has given to us thought that we should know the one true; and we are in the one true, in His son Jesus Christ. This one is the true. God and the life eternal. Sons, guard yourselves from the idols! Amen.

May 10, 2024. I see a beautiful, multi-faceted jewel. This image has been in my mind for several days. The Lord says, I have intricately made you into this magnificent person. Don’t look down on yourself or put yourself down. It was with great joy that I fashioned you to be the UNIQUE you. No one else has your “cut” or “features”. Rejoice in your birth day…because on that day My precious jewel emerged – you! Shine like a diamond!

Malachi 3:17 “And they shall be Mine, says the Lord of hosts, in that day when I publicly recognize and openly declare them to be My jewels (My special possession, My peculiar treasure). And I will spare them, as a man spares his own son who serves him.” Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 10, 2024. A few days ago, I heard a song from the 70s. Some of the lyrics were “Just remember I love you and it will be alright.” Later, I was praying and the Lord showed me people in emotional turmoil. He said, when storms and trials come and you are feeling unrest and you can’t settle your mind, just remember I love you and it will be alright. Let MY love settle your emotions.

Ephesians 4:26-27 “But don’t let the passion of your emotions lead you to sin! Don’t let anger control you or be fuel for revenge, not for even a day. Don’t give the slanderous accuser, the devil, an opportunity to manipulate you!” Pam Jackson

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

For those who have been traveling on a rough road, which has seemed insurmountable, it will begin to smooth out. But, you must let go of issues that have kept you in turmoil. You can do this by putting them in My capable hands, says the Lord. You must stop fretting about things that have no eternal value. Put your trust in Me and ask for guidance and protection. 

Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts through Christ Jesus.

1 John 4:1-21
Distinguish the Spirits
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but distinguish the spirits, if they are of God! for many false prophets have gone forth into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God — every spirit which acknowledges Jesus Christ having come in flesh is of God. And every spirit which does not acknowledge Jesus Christ having come in flesh is not of God. And this is the thing of the antichrist, which you heard that it comes and is now in the world already. You are of God, sons and have overcome them; for greater is the One in you, than the one in the world. They are of the world; because of this they speak of the world and the world hears them. We are of God; the one knowing God, hears us; the one who is not of God, does not hear us. By this we know the Spirit of the truth and the spirit of the delusion.

Love One Another
Beloved, we should love one another, for love is of God; and every one loving is engendered of God and knows God. The one not loving does not know God, for God is love. In this was made manifest the love of God in us, that His Son, the only born, God sent into the world, that we should live through Him. In this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atonement for our sins. Beloved, if thus God loved us, also we ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time. If we should love one another, God abides in us and His love has been perfected in us. By this we know that in Him we abide and He in us — that of the Spirit of Him He has given to us. And we have seen and we bear witness that the Father has sent the Son as deliverer of the world. Whoever should acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him and he in God. And we have known and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love and the one abiding in the love, abides in God and God in him. In this the love has been perfected with us, that we should have confidence in the day of the judgment; for as that One is, also we are in this world. Fear is not in the love, but the perfect love casts fear outside; for fear holds punishment and the one fearing has not been made perfect in love. We love Him, for He first loved us. If anyone should say that, I love God and should detest his brother, he is a liar. For the one not loving his brother, whom he has seen, how is he able to love God whom he has not seen? And this Commandment we have from Him, that the one loving God, should love also his brother.

May 9, 2024. As you go about your daily routine, remember that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. It matters what you do with your body. Paul said that everything was lawful for him but not everything was profitable. He had the revelation that just because he could, whatever he was doing, might not be good for him. Consider how you are treating your body. Respect the gift of life that I gave you – your earth suit.

1 Corinthians 10:23 (CEV) “Some of you say, “We can do whatever we want to!” But I tell you not everything may be good or helpful.”

1 Corinthians 10:23a (MEV) “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful.”  

1 Corinthians 10:23 (LXX) “All things to me are allowed, but not all things are advantageous. All things to me are allowed, but not all things build up. ”  Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 9, 2024. You can never focus enough on My Kingdom, says the Lord. Yes, it is difficult to think of sitting with ME while you are dealing with the reality of life on earth. However, your life in ME is more real than your life on earth. Let Me show you how to die to self and live to ME. Did I not say if you lose your life for My sake, you will find it? I will show you what that means today and you will see the revelation of MY kind of life.

Colossians 3:1-4“Therefore, if you have been raised up with Messiah, keep seeking the things above—where Messiah is, sitting at the right hand of God. Focus your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Messiah in God. When Messiah, who is your life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him, in glory!”Budd Rodgers

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

This is a time when you must rest and be restored. Rise up in the Spirit and access the substance of rejuvenation and receive it by faith. Everything you need to be refreshed and renewed is within your grasp. This is a new day, and you have the ability to reset and begin again. 

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

1 John 3:1-24

Be Imitators of Christ
Behold! what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. On account of this the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now we are children of God and not yet was it manifested what we will be; but we know that if He should be manifested, we will be likened to Him; for we shall see Him as He is. And every one having this hope upon Him, purifies himself, as that One is pure. Every one committing sin, also commits lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. And you know that that One was made manifest, that He should lift away our sins; and sin is not in Him. Anyone abiding in Him, does not sin; anyone sinning has not seen Him nor has known Him. Sons, let no one mislead you! The one executing the righteousness is righteous, as that One is righteous. The one committing sin is of the devil, for from the beginning the devil sins. For this the Son of God was made manifest, that He should loosen the works of the devil. Anyone engendered of God, does not commit sin, for His seed abides in him; and he is not able to sin, because he has been engendered by God. 

Love the Brethren

In this the children of God are apparent and the children of the devil. Every one not executing righteousness is not of God, even the one not loving his brother. For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain who was of the wicked one and slew his brother. And for what favor did he slay him? because his works were wicked, but the ones of his brother righteous. Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world detests you! We know that we have crossed over from death into life, for we love the brethren. The one not loving the brethren, abides in death. Every one detesting his brother is a man-killer; and you know that every man-killer does not have life eternal abiding in him. By this we have known the love of God, because that One placed His life for us; and we ought to place our lives for the brethren. But who ever should have the livelihood of the world and should view his brother having need and should lock up his feelings of compassion from him, how does the love of God abide in him? My sons, we should not love in word nor tongue, but in work and truth. And in this we know that we are of the truth and before Him we shall yield our hearts. For if our heart should condemn, know that God is greater than our heart and He knows all things. Beloved, if our heart should not condemn us, we have confidence before God. And what ever we should ask, we receive from Him, for His Commandments we keep and the things pleasing before Him we do. And this is His Commandment — that we should believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ and we should love one another, as He gave Commandment. And the one keeping His Commandments abides in Him and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit which He gave to us. 

May 8, 2024. Some of you have aches and pains especially in the bones. Nothing that the medical profession is doing seems to help. Today, I want you to examine yourself and see if you have any type of unforgiveness, bitterness or resentment. A root of bitterness will defile you and sin sets in. Begin today to release those who have hurt you, do not dwell on the past and begin to watch your bones flourish. I love you and want you whole.

Psalm 109:18 “But he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment and it entered into his body like water and like oil into his bones.”

Proverbs 3:7-8 “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and turn away from all evil. It will be healing to your body and refreshment to your bones.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 8, 2024. I am giving you the desires of your heart as you take delight in Me. I have placed the desires in you so that I can give them to you. Many have wondered why you desire the things you do. I say to you, I have placed them there and it is time for their fulfillment. Take delight in Me and watch Me do this. Delight in Me and I will do it.

Psalms 37:4 “Take delight in the Lord and He will give you your heart’s desire.” Jennifer Peikert

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Hang on to My promises when you have a setback. Overall, you are making progress, but not all things are coming up roses and clover. Challenges are part of life that either break you down or strengthen your resolve. It will be up to you as to how you respond. You would do well to be strong in the face of adversity, and put your trust in Me, 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.

1 John 2:12-29  
Paul

I write to you, sons, for the sins have been forgiven to you through His name. I write to you, fathers, because you have known the One from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, children, because you have known the Father. I wrote to you, fathers, because you have known the One from the beginning. I wrote to you, young men, because you are strong and the Word of God abides in you and you have overcome the wicked one.

Love Not the World
Do not love the world, nor the things in the world! If anyone should love the world, the love of the Father is not in him; for every thing in the world, the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentatiousness of existence, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away and the desire of it; but the one doing the will of God abides into the eon. Children, it is the last hour; and as you heard that the antichrist comes, and now many antichrists exist, whereupon we know that it is the last hour. From us they went forth, but they were not of us; for if they were of us, they would have remained with us; but it was that they should be made manifest that all are not of us. And you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. I wrote not to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and that every lie is not of the truth. Who is the liar, if not the one denying, saying that, Jesus is not the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one denying the Father and the Son. Every one denying the Son, neither has the Father. You then, what you heard from the beginning, let it abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning should abide in you, then you shall abide in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise which He promised to us — the life eternal. These things I wrote to you concerning the ones misleading you. And you — the anointing which you received from Him abides in you and you have no need that any should teach you; but, as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and as it taught you, you shall abide in Him. And now, sons, abide in Him! that whenever He should be made manifest, we should have an open manner, and we should not be ashamed before Him at His arrival. If you know that He is righteous, you know that every one doing the righteousness is engendered of Him. 

May 7, 2024. You have been “lit” by My fire. The unquenchable fire that brings joy everlasting. From this point on your focus will be purified – no more looking back – no more regret. Know that I have come with a cleansing wave – removing all hindrances and obstacles. Now you’re on the path of wholeness and restoration. All the years that have been stolen will be paid back to you now.

Joel 2:25a  “And I will recompense to you for the years which the blight devoured and the grasshopper and locust and the caterpillar,” Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 7, 2024. When you go to the ocean and you sit as close to the water as you can get without getting completely soaked, shut your eyes and listen to MY voice, says the LORD.  I will speak loud enough to drown out the voices of others and yet soft enough to get into your heart. Often you say you can’t hear MY voice but in reality You do hear MY voice. It is the distraction of “other” voices that have caused you to doubt. Even if you aren’t next to the ocean, go into your closet, shut the door and focus on ME, says the Lord, I want to overtake you with My Word and MY Glory!

Ezekiel 43:2 “and behold, the glory of the God of Israel was coming from the east. And there was a voice of the camp as the repeating voice of many. And the ground shone forth as brightness in the glory roundabout.”  

Revelation 1:15 “His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the roar of rushing waters.” Budd Rodgers

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

You are in a season of progression. You will be able to break through invisible barriers that have kept you from achieving certain goals. If you pay attention, you will discover that you are experiencing a freedom that only comes from realizing spiritual reality. Refuse to believe that living and walking in the Spirit is fragile. It is the most solid existence possible. 

Matthew 7:24-25 Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

1 John 2:1-11
Abiding in Christ
Paul

My sons, these things I write to you, that you should not sin. And if any should sin, we have a comforter with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous. And He is atonement for our sins; but not only for ours, but also for the whole world. And by this we know that we have known Him if the Commandments of His we keep. The one saying, I know Him, and is not keeping His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in this one. But who ever should give heed of His Word, truly in this one the love of God has been perfected. By this we know
that we are in Him. The one saying to be abiding in Him, ought as that One walked, also himself so to walk. Brethren, I do not write to you a new Commandment, but an old Commandment, which you had from the beginning. The old Commandment is the Word which you heard from the beginning. Again, a new Commandment I write to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness passes away and the true Light already shines forth. The one saying to be in the Light and detests his brother, is in the darkness until now. The one loving his brother abides in the Light and there is no cause of offence in him. But the one detesting his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness and does not know where he goes, because the darkness blinded his eyes. 

May 6, 2024. I speak to those in overwhelming sadness. I know your pain and I feel your sorrow. Weeping is for today but allow the sun to come out tomorrow. Sadness is not your mantra…allow Me to penetrate through the difficulties and allow the “Son,” the “Sun,” to come into your day. Stop the stealing…only you can stand up and say “enough is enough”. Submit to My joy for the day and refuse the sadness.

Psalm 30:5b “Weeping may last for the night, but a shout of joy comes in the morning.” Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 6, 2024. You have been faithful to sow into My Kingdom in many ways. You give of yourself time and time again. The enemy tried to convince you that I am not aware nor grateful for the time, energy and finances that you have sown into those around you in My name. Do not let Satan have even the slightest satisfaction in his lies. I see the way you give and serve. Be assured of My blessing on you!

1 Chronicles 28:9-10  “As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will let you find Him; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever. Consider now, for the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary; be courageous and act.” Jonas Bohlin

The Trumpet by Bill Burns:

The goal of this season is to get connected by the Spirit of God to Jesus Christ so that His spiritual life will flow into us and become a fountain of life by which we live. The reward of this process is the confirmation that God is real and that He is active among His people with signs and wonders that will generate strong faith that works in us and for us. 

Romans 8:38-39 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Small Straws by Marsha Burns:

Deliberately come into peace as you release yourself from stress. Step onto the firm foundation of faith in My Word, in My kingdom, and in relationship with Me, says the Lord. When your foundation is solid, everything that you build will reflect that same fundamental power. Your position in Me will bring you to a position of life and strength. 

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

1 John 1   Fellowship with Jesus Paul

Which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we were spectators of and our hands handled concerning the Word of the life; (and the life was made manifest, and we have seen, and bear witness, and announce to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us,) which we have seen and have heard we report to you, that also you should have fellowship with us; and indeed the fellowship, the one of ours is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you, that our joy is being full. And this is the promise which we have heard from Him, and we announce to you, that God is light, and darkness is not in any way in Him. If we should say that we have fellowship with Him, and in the darkness should walk, we lie, and we do not observe the truth. But if we should walk in the Light, as He is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His son cleanses us from all sin. If we should say that we do not have sin, we mislead ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we should acknowledge our sins, He is trustworthy and just that He should have forgiven us the sins, and should have cleansed us from all iniquity. If we should say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His Word is not in us.

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Some of you, My people, are more creative than others, but everyone is creative in his own way and genre. Some of you have neglected your gift by being immersed in the stark reality of undesirable world conditions. Allow your creativity to be a place of solace and of allowing spiritual reality to kick in. Do not neglect the gift that is in you, says the Lord. 

Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this eon, but be transformed in the renewal of your mind, in the trying of yourselves, in what is the good and well-pleasing and perfect will of God!

 May 4, 2024. It is time to emulate the prophet, Isaiah. It’s lip cleansing time. Isaiah encountered Me and had a revelation of unclean lips. He instantly repented in My presence and answered the call for service. I took a burning coal from the altar and cleansed his lips and forgave him for his sin. He was immediately commissioned to speak to the people. It’s time for you to be cleansed, set free and speak to the people. Submit to My coal.

Isaiah 6:4-9a “Their voices shook the Temple to its foundations and the entire building was filled with smoke. Then I said, “It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.” Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. He touched my lips with it and said, “See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your lawless deeds are removed and your sins are forgiven.” Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.” And He said, “Yes, go, and say to this people,” Robin Robinson Bohlin

 May 4, 2024. “April showers bring May flowers” is at work in your life! I have watered and nurtured you now for a while. You have received water and nutrients needed for the next season. Your base has grown strong and the stalk is sturdy. Now…use all that has been placed within you. It is time to bloom and allow those around you to smell the aroma of My anointing on you as you move forward and bear much fruit!

John 15:4-5 “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you are not able to do anything.”   Jonas Bohlin

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

When difficulties and challenges arise, you must be flexible to do what is required of you. Realize that I am with you to give you wisdom and direction in every circumstance. Do not be afraid to step out in faith, and know that you can accomplish what seems to be impossible. Be strong and of good courage, says the Lord. Take one step at a time in realizing your goal so that you do not become overwhelmed. 

Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.

May 3, 2024. This day, leave your past behind. I see some of you carrying a big load on your back. You think you are free and have forgiven yourself but actually there is a huge “sack of potatoes” on your back. Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean that you can’t feel it. Oppression can be very weighty. If you are having a tough time ridding yourself of this, meet with a trusted spiritual person who can help you.

2 Corinthians 5:17  “So that if anyone be in Christ, there is a new creation, the old things passed away; behold, all things have become new.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin 

May 3, 2024. I saw two tables, one had food that was spoiled, broken dishes were all along the table, the people sitting around it were sad and defeated. The other table was beautiful, full of delicious food and the most elegant dishes I’ve ever seen. They were happy and rejoicing, full of life. I heard the Lord say, “It’s time to excuse yourself from the table that is no longer giving you life. You’re invited to come.”

Luke 14:17 “When the day for the feast arrived, the host instructed his servant to notify all the invited guests and tell them, ‘Come, for everything is now ready for you!’” Pam Jackson
