Many characters in the bible teach us how to suffer, especially Jesus. So did Mary. t.b.c. Mary was carrying God in her womb. God was with her and in her. Yet she did not have a joy ride from Nazareth to Bethlehem about 70 miles on a donkey, a journey that took days. The pain, the discomfort, most certainly the backache she endured is not mentioned. She accepted all as God’s will. After all, if He wanted her to travel in comfort, and where she could lie down if she wanted to, God would have inspired Joseph many months before to build a donkey cart! That would have been luxury compared to riding a donkey side-saddle for days! t.b.c. On the other hand, the journey was not on tarmac, but on rough, rugged, uneven dirt road. That would have been worse. Then Mary and Joseph found no room for them in the Inn. Was God in this? Was He with them? Did He care about them? Was He looking after them? Judging from the circumstances, He wasn’t. t.b.c. Did Mary complain, grumble and get angry and resentful? Did she have bitterness and a bad attitude? There is no record of any of that. t.b.c. When Mary said “yes” to God she was saying yes to more than she could have imagined. There was God choosing to be born in a cold, dark, dirty stable, and Mary experiencing birth pains most likely, even though it was God in the flesh passing through her birth canal! t.b.c.

February 3, 2026. I know you may feel like you’re on shaky ground, but the truth is the righteous are never shaken. These are strange days, but these days must happen. It is imperative that you hear My voice and do what I say. All those around you who don’t know Me will feel the shaking and the turmoil, but you are kept safe in Me. Steady yourself with My word and let My voice guide you. Stand on My promises.
Psalm 55:22 (NASB1995) “Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you; he will never allow the righteous to be shaken.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

February 3, 2026. You are getting ready to experience a supernatural move in your life. You will see doors open like never before. You have said it seems like things are moving at a faster pace. It is because it’s at a supernatural pace. There is a peace that comes with this move and that is how you will know I am leading the way. Allow My peace to guide and direct your every step. Watch the doors open before you even knock.
Revelation 3:8 (MSG) “I see what you’ve done. Now see what I’ve done. I’ve opened a door before you that no one can slam shut. You don’t have much strength, I know that; you used what you had to keep my Word. You didn’t deny me when times were rough” Pam Jackson

3 February 2026. Think Big

I saw in the spirit the feet of a child, tiptoeing in a clearing. He was trying to find his way between the trees in front of him, as sunshine streamed through the leaves. He was both thrilled and slightly fearful, for he had never been this way before.

The Spirit of The LORD says: “Oh, my lovely child! It is such a pleasure to see you leaving behind what was and stepping into the new! I feel your excitement and your heart thumping. Yet, I AM not just asking you to take small, doubtful steps. I AM asking you to take strides!

Look for My hand. I AM right beside you. Let’s run together into all I have for you. Think big, be bold, have fun! Nothing is impossible with Me. There will be hills and lakes, flowers and frosts, ups and downs. Take it all in. Breathe it. Live it. Enter fully into My plan for the next season. Live the life I have prepared for you.”

ACTIVATION: Take time in God’s presence and allow Jesus to take you by the hand. Ask Jesus what are the next big strides in the new. Ask the Lord what He wants you to think big plans about. Receive the mind of Christ as in 1 Corinthians 2:16, to be guided by the thoughts of God.

John 10:10 (AMP) “I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].”

2 February 2026. Rest is Powerful

“My Beloved Bride, everything I have for you this year needs to come from being established in My Love and positioned in unshakeable rest. Rest is not passivity, rest is powerful. It is absolute faith and trust in My Authority and Sovereignty over all things.

Whatever is going on in the world, be fully conscious of your life entwined with Mine and step into a posture of rest. As you remain in rest, the world and demonic forces lose their grip. Their narrative is silenced. My heavenly perspective comes front and centre, and My voice is clearly discerned.

In the place of rest, you live as one who is fully yielded to My Holy Spirit. This is how you rule and reign, how The Kingdom of God is advanced with lives transformed . There is such power and authority in this way of life.”

Activation : Take moments in the days and weeks ahead to become consciously aware of the Holy Spirit within. Breathe deeply, step into holy rest and let all the circumstances of life that clamour for attention fade in His Presence. If this is new to you, aim to build this regular practice into your life, several times a day.

Ephesians 2:6 AMPC “And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together [giving us joint seating with Him] in the heavenly sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One).”
