Separate yourself from those who are divisive and want to pick a fight.  Do not respond to their aggravation.  Walk away from unrighteousness, and find your way into My presence, says the Lord.  I will give you wisdom and the grace to avoid being drawn into chaos and contention.  Guard your heart and mind.
 
Philippians 4:7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
It is going to be an uplifting time, as your faith and hope are going to be strengthened.​ ​Doug Addison
May 31, 2018. Walking in victory is a step by step process. Your victory has been impeded lately. For seemingly no reason that you know of, you haven’t been able to take the necessary steps without hindrance. Do all you know to do and leave the rest up to Me. Don’t push it right now. There is a reason not to go forward. Now is a time of rest. Wait on My directions to push on through. Then go.
1 Corinthians 15:57 (NIV) “But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”  Bev Robinson
May 31, 2018. People around you are looking for someone to encourage them. You have come to the full revelation that it’s not about you. They know you are one who sees the best in practically every situation. You are not a naysayer, but rather a stimulator through many alliances. I have made you like Paul, who seized every opportunity to tell people about Me. You want others to experience the same fullness I have given to you.
1 Corinthians 9:19 (TPT) “Now, even though I am free from obligations to others, I joyfully make myself a servant to all in order to win as many converts as possible.”  Kevin Robinson
May 31, 2018. You have begun to experience the life that I have for you, but you have only begun. By the power of My Holy Spirit you will walk in a realm of extravagance that you can only understand when you enter. I have for you an abundance of faith that has opened the door to all that grace affords you. You will walk no longer in your power but My power. Signs and wonders will be your companion.
Acts 6:8 (NASB) “And Stephen, full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.”  Jonas Bohlin

You may not be able to change the world at large, but you can make a difference in your personal space and environment where you have influence and responsibility.  There is no need to feel powerless.  When you perform one act of kindness or express one act of generosity you sow a seed of righteousness in the earth.  Do not diminish your potential to make things better, says the Lord.  
 
Ephesians 4:32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.
New revelation is coming to help with what once seemed impossible.  Doug Addison
May 30, 2018. Even though it was hard, you waited and you gave. You believed Me and obeyed Me without really thinking you would receive a reward. You have waited and you have given again and again. Now is the time for receiving. Now is the time of reaping and enjoying the fruit of obedience. You have been an example to others who have watched without your knowing you were being watched. I am pleased with you.

Hebrews 11:6 (ESV) “And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.”  Bev Robinson

May 30, 2018. In this day and age, most are familiar with the term “pairing.” It is used for linking your computer, cell phone or other electronic devices to get wi-fi through the internet. The same word of pairing is what I used when I paired up My twelve disciples and when I paired up the seventy-two. There is a release of My power when you pair yourself with another believer. Through My network, power is unleashed through great connectivity.
Luke 10:1 (NIV) “After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of Him to every town and place where He was about to go.”  Kevin Robinson
 
May 30, 2018. You feel as if you are on a tightrope with no net. It is possible to have faith in a fearful situation. When you set your eyes on the goal with Me in your heart, fearful situations resolve into faith-building moments. Just because you are in a fearful circumstance you don’t have to entertain fear. Be as Daniel was in the lion’s den, full of faith in a precarious situation. You will be amazed at the outcome.
Daniel 6:22 (AMPC) “My God has sent His angel and has shut the lions’ mouths so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent and blameless before Him; and also before you, O king, [as you very well know] I have done no harm or wrong.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

Settle yourself.  You are about to enter into a new level of spiritual sensitivity.  But, quieting your inner self is vital to supernatural perception.  You must optimize your position in the Spirit to take advantage of this next phase of growth as you listen and look beyond your natural senses, says the Lord.  
 
Proverbs 8:32 “Now therefore, listen to Me, My children, for blessed are those who keep My ways.”
God is going to give you insight into a situation you previously did not understand. Doug Addison
May 29, 2018. Be still in the light of what has happened. You aren’t sure what to do anyway. So do nothing until you hear from Me. There is no need to do something. You aren’t being pushed to respond, so the best thing is to not do anything. At such times, I am working in others to get the right result. To do something would mess things up. When it is time to act I will let you know.
 
Psalm 37:23 (AMP) “The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step].”  Bev Robinson
 
May 29 , 2018. It’s time to shelve some of the matters that have been stewing in your soul. Some of the issues were once minor and now they are full-fledged major obstacles. Make the mature move to let the matter rest for a season. Shift your focus elsewhere. Place your oppressive problems into My care. See your stumbling block as an opportunity for Me to receive glory. I am the solution. I am in control. Rest.

Matthew 11:28-30 (MSG) “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to Me. Get away with Me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with Me and work with Me-watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with Me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”  Kevin Robinson

May 29, 2018. I promise you that I can do more with your life than you could ever dream or imagine. Consider Me in all things and above all things, then mountains are moved, favor comes your way, and a magnitude of blessings are yours in reality in your life. Yes, there will still be challenges, but when the challenges come, seek Me, pursue Me and know My purpose. My strength will stand!

Acts 20:24 (NASB) “But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of ​God.”  Jonas Bohlin

THE TRUMPET by BILL BURNS
Stand tall.  Take My hand and walk with Me.  Talk with Me.  Listen to My voice.  All that you need I will give to you because you are connected to Me by My Spirit.  It is important in these days that you are One with Me because the days are evil.  Do not allow the darkness of these days to overtake you.  Reach up.  Stand tall.  Stay connected to Me, and you will be victorious in all things, says the Lord.
 
SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS
Beloved, I am asking you to re-purpose the energy you spend on criticism and judgment to become tolerance and love.  Anger and vitriol will only result in greater darkness and separation from Me, says the Lord.  Kindness and consideration for others will elevate them and lift you up as well.  Remove the veil that separates you and rise up to fulfill My mandate.  
 
John 15:12 “This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.”
 
You will be pleasantly surprised if you step out of your routine and try new things. Doug Addison
May 28, 2018. Thoughts keep popping up that something bad is going to happen. Their origin of course is the devil, but you had some former things happen in cycles. Good would happen and then there would be an attack of the bad. Now is the time to break that cycle. When the bad thoughts come, recognize them, but let them pass on by. Then think of good things. The cycle will soon break. God will see to it.

Philippians 4:8-9 (ESV) “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me-practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.”  Bev Robinson

 
May 28, 2018. Your adversary is a pretender. Satan crudely fabricates all kinds of plans and schemes to throw you off course from the plans I have in store for you. He is a master manipulator who hurls falsehoods at you to knock you off your feet. Satan mimics My truths with lies so similar that you almost have to be an expert to recognize his antics. He is braggadocios, whereas, My Word speaks for itself. I am your Champion.
2 Corinthians 9:8 (NOG) “Besides, God will give you His constantly overflowing kindness. Then, when you always have everything you need, you can do more and more good things.”  Kevin Robinson
May 28, 2018. When you honor others you put yourself into a position of receiving honor yourself. If you could learn this one concept it would drastically change your life. Satan sought to bring all the honor to himself and therefore fell from grace. You will be tempted to talk about yourself and even brag, but as you shift your focus to others, you will find yourself highlighted. It’s just the way My Kingdom works! Honor Me and honor others.

Proverbs 29:23 (AMPC) “A man’s pride will bring him low, but he who is of a humble spirit will obtain honor.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

God is going to change your understanding on things that were once difficult. Doug Addison
 
Daughter, it is I, the Lord Jesus who speaks to you this day and I am using you, a vessel in which to speak through. Write these words for they are true and faithful. Yea, I confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. 
 
My children, My bride, I am with you and I sing over you with love. There is no greater love than Mine because I died that you might live with Me. I created you to be with Me for eternity. There is none that sticks closer to you than I. My heart is full of joy that you will be with Me shortly in Paradise, in the New City Jerusalem. But at the same time, I weep for those that have not known Me or for those that have rejected Me. 
 
They do not realize what eternity will be like without Me. That is why I ask you to reach out with holy boldness, speak out to those that appear to have no interest in Me. Ask Me and I will direct you and give you the words you need to speak. If they reject you, then you will not have their blood on your hands. When you reach out to the lost, you are just as if it were Me talking to them. You are My body, and I ask you to follow My lead. 
 
Be a blessing to others because you may be entertaining angels in disguise. This eternal gift is for everyone, from the least to the greatest. Do not be a respecter of persons, treating the famous, wealthy, or beautiful better than those that are not born with beauty, wealth or fame. I look at the hidden man of the heart. I implore you dear children, to seek out the lost and tell them I love them. For in so doing, you will be blessed accordingly. I have shown much mercy to all, and so many have seen it as weakness. I tell you the hour is here, and you are all living on borrowed time. Stay awake and keep busy My bride, because you know not the hour that I come for you. Work for Me while it is day. 
 
Pray for President Trump. I placed him in office to give extra time for those that needed it. When he leaves office, the antichrist will take over. All the players are in place and your world will be soon unrecognizable. Because decisions have been made that will not be changed, it’s time to leave. Time is up!
 
My love will never let you down.  I will never forsake you. For your salvation is a gift. Ask Me for eyes that see and ears that hear and to direct your paths. Truly, truly I say to you, your wait is over and your time has come. Joy unspeakable is what heaven is all about. No crying, no sadness, no gloom. Your hearts will never experience rejection ever again, because you have given them to Me. I am the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. I am He that liveth and was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore. I have the keys of hell and of death. I am from everlasting to everlasting. I am God and there is none else. I am your Saviour, your true love, Jesus❤

My sons and daughter, I am very proud of you.  You have been faithful in a darkening world. You have never looked back.  Ever since I called you, you have stepped calmly and walked behind Me in My footsteps.  You have never forgotten Me and I will never forget you.  You have not been ashamed of Me and I will not be ashamed of You before My Father.  When it comes time to present you, I do so with exceeding joy and gladness.  You are the prize that I have fought for. You are the faith evidence that I put Myself on the cross for.  You are the reason that I gave Myself up and it is your hand that I gladly take. Yahushua Ha’Mashiaḥ

You’ll want to slow down and pray about the opportunities that are coming. Doug Addison

 

May 26, 2018. Good news is coming. You will be so happy. You have kept your words in alignment with My Word. This is so good and so necessary. Yes, grace is extended to you, and you know that, but you have also been obedient in the use of your words and also your thoughts. At times you were tempted to worry, but you mostly resisted that temptation. Soon you will see how beneficial is the blessing of good thoughts and words.
Proverbs 18:21 (MSG) “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit-you choose.”  Bev Robinson
 
May 26, 2018. The last days began at Pentecost over two-thousand years ago. Since then My Kingdom has been mocked, scorned and ridiculed to no end. Because you have placed your faith in Me, you too fall into the category of those who are looked down upon. People will forever be bringing tension, strife and division. You have been called and set apart for days like these. Contend for your faith. Be constructive. Remain authentic. Love captivatingly. Exhibit compassion.

Jude 1:20-21 (TPT) “But you, my delightfully loved friends, constantly and progressively build yourselves up on the foundation of your most holy faithby praying every moment in the Spirit. Fasten your hearts to the love of God and receive the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who gives us eternal life.”  Kevin Robinson

 
May 26, 2018. Do not settle for less than My best for you. Satan has convinced you that it’s “just the way it is” when he whispers in your ear that My best is only for others. That is a lie! My excellence is yours in every endeavor in which I lead you. Do not be afraid to live your life in excellence in every area. Do not listen to the lies of My enemy. Only believe for My best!
Ephesians 4:1 (NASB) “Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called.”  Jonas Bohlin

Be diligent in seeking for wisdom to solve puzzling or difficult situations.  Every problem has unique elements that require creative solutions.  I will give you the revelation you need if you will only ask.  I want to help you see and know what to do.  I will not withhold the information you need to move forward, says the Lord.  
 
Psalms 46:1  God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
 
You are going to see big doors of opportunity and changes begin to open in front of you.​ ​Doug Addison
May 25, 2018. There will be temptation to let your believing faith lag. Be on guard. Satan is looking for any chance to stir up negative thinking and doubt within you. You have seen what faith can do. You have seen what I can do. So keep faith upper mind within you. Go from glory to glory. There doesn’t have to be a going down time. You don’t have to go up then down. You can just keep going upward.
2 Corinthians 3:18 (ESV) “And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.”  Bev Robinson
 
May 25, 2018. Why do you keep different minded believers at a distance, sometimes even written off? Some attended church with you for years. Then misunderstandings and hurt feelings got in the way. Now it’s as if they have the Ebola virus. Are you really so wounded that you cannot forgive them as I have forgiven you? I love you. Prayerfully consider if you’ve become a noisy gong or clanging cymbal.
1 John 4:20 (TPT) “Anyone can say, “I love God,” yet have hatred toward another believer. This makes him a phony, because if you don’t love a brother or sister, whom you can see, how can you truly love God, whom you can’t see?”  Kevin Robinson
 
May 25, 2018. I have the whole world in My hands. What seems to be uncertain times are not at all. Things must come to pass in these last days. I am the God of Peace; I am the God of Salem. Quieten your heart and listen to My Spirit. I will direct you in these days of uncertainty. Do not make decisions based on what you see. Seek Me during these times and your success will be evident.
Psalm 131:2 (AMPC) “Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me [ceased from fretting].”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

You will find it helpful at this time to re-organize your thoughts, intentions, and course of action to accommodate new elements that you have not considered.  The challenge is to refrain from stubbornly clinging to the past and old ways of doing things.  Be flexible and willing to move with the flow of My Spirit even when it feels strange or foreign, says the Lord.  
 
Proverbs 2:6 For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
There is going to be a turnaround of a difficult or negative situation. Doug Addison
May 24, 2018. According to Scripture, “Taking off the old and putting on the new” is something you desperately want to do. Putting on the new is where you are having a challenge. You are doing well in taking off the old. When your mind goes to the old, you stop it from going further. Now, you are wanting the new, think “I love You God and will do what You say, I think of the good love You gave.”
Ephesians 4:22-24 (NIV) “You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”  Bev Robinson
 
May 24, 2018. Many of you are familiar with the tune from Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs which was “Whistle While You Work.” Do the people around you witness the joy of the Lord in you when you work? Can individuals see something glad about you, even if you have a difficult boss? Who are you working for? Is it Me, or for the money to pay your bills? I am Jehovah Jireh. I am your source of all things profitable!
1 Corinthians 15:58 (NLT) “So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.”  Kevin Robinson
 
May 24, 2018.  Be careful how you treat other people. I sent My Son to die for ALL of humanity. No one is beyond My love. My Son’s death and resurrection was to provide every person with the opportunity to spend eternity with Me. No one and nothing is beyond the reach of My love. Nothing, except your choice to reject My Son, has the power to separate you from Me. My love is for everyone.
1 John 4:19-20 (NASB) “We love, because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.” Jonas Bohlin

Word of the Lord May 23, 18

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS
Refuse to allow your strong convictions to become judgments against others.  No one has yet achieved perfection, and to believe that you are more perfect than others is a function of pride.  I would have you see through My eyes and know that love and acceptance are what you must strive for, says the Lord.  Where the Spirit is there is love.  
 
Matthew 7:3 “And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye?”
God is going to surprise you with things you least expected.​ ​Doug Addison
May 23, 2018. The end of the tunnel is in sight. You see a glimmer of light. You are going in the right direction. Don’t turn and certainly don’t stop. Yes, there is a brighter day coming. Gather up your hope and faith and keep on walking. You will not see enemies fall as you go, but you can be assured they are falling in the darkness. There is a brighter day and a new day. Don’t you give up!
Psalm 139:11-12 (ESV) “If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,” even the darkness is not dark to You; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with You.”  Bev Robinson
 
May 23, 2018. Are your prayers enthusiastic or are they indifferent? Do you lack the inner fire from within when you humbly make petitions while seeking My face? Are your supplications passionate and avid? Have you recognized the effect your own unconfessed sins have upon your prayer life? My desire is for you to cultivate determined dedication. Work at becoming selfless. Pray your agendas out of the way and become feverishly zealous. I am calling you into transparency, purity and holiness.
James 5:16 (AMPC) “Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].”  Kevin Robinson
 
May 23, 2018. You are out of sync. It doesn’t seem to matter what you do, this feeling will not leave. Now is a good time to seek Me for the solution. You can continue in the “grayness,” knowing it will only continue to increase, or you can seek Me for change. This will require work on your part. There are areas that need to come to the surface for healing. Trust Me and watch the freedom come.

Psalm 38:8-9,15 (AMPC) “I am faint and sorely bruised [deadly cold and quite worn out]; I groan by reason of the disquiet and moaning of my heart.  Lord, all my desire is before You; and my sighing is not hidden from You. For in You, O Lord, do I hope; You will answer, O Lord my God.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin

Do not beat yourself up.  The enemy of your soul does a fine job of that already.  And, I want you to know that if you are doing something against My will and purposes, I always bring conviction so that you can change your mind and heart.  You must forgive yourself so that you can proceed.  You are worthy of relationship with Me, says the Lord.  
 
2 Thessalonians 1:11Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power.
 
Ask God for what you need and watch as the answers come from unusual places. Doug Addison
May 22, 2018. Don’t make a speedy assessment.  Wait until you get more information. More data will come in later. That will be the time to determine the course of action to take. Right now the information is too sparse to make an accurate determination.  If you make a judgment now you will be sorry later. This is not the right time. Hold off and collect more data. You will know the right time to make the right call.
Psalm 27:14 (ESV) “Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!”  Bev Robinson
 
May 22, 2018. In your yielding, I want you to be decisive. For some time now, you have been fickle in your ways. You’ve become like the breeze. People have had difficulty following you. Your ideas seem to be all over the place. Instead of inconsistencies, develop purposefulness. As an alternative to vacillating, be resolute and solid as a rock. Choose this day whom you will serve and cast double-mindedness aside.
James 1:6-8 (ERV) “But when you ask God, you must believe. Don’t doubt Him. Whoever doubts is like a wave in the sea that is blown up and down by the wind. People like that are thinking two different things at the same time. They can never decide what to do. So they should not think they will receive anything from the Lord.”  Kevin Robinson
 
May 22, 2018. I desire that in your life, I AM! I Am the source of all that you need and that you desire. Set all of your hopes, faith, trust and affections on Me and you will never be disappointed. There may be times of discouragement, or even concern, but know that I Am. I Am the God who saves; I Am the God who heals; I am the One God who was, who is, and shall be forever!
Exodus 3:14 (NASB) “God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM”; and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.'” Jonas Bohlin
