A Word through: Ching Co, Cebu City, The Philippines Ching's email: ching@gsilink.com

July 7, 2001

This message is directed to both biological and spiritual parents. It is also for people who may not have children (biological or spiritual) but God has given you a burden, a vision, a ministry which you have carried and nurtured with the same effort and love that any parent has for their own child.

A BOWL OF TEARS, BROKEN TREASURES

I saw a big group of people and many of them were in a silent and frozen mode. Each of them were holding something. I saw one group holding-- in their hands, golden bowls filled with liquid which the Holy Spirit impressed to me were collected tears. While another group was carrying close to their hearts-- shattered pieces of valuable treasures.

WHAT WERE THE GOLDEN BOWLS AND SHATTERED TREASURES?

The Holy Spirit impressed to me that the golden bowls filled with tears and the shattered treasures are symbolic. The golden bowl of tears reflect the actual tears, the prayer petitions, the longings, the cries of many parents that God has received and collected in heaven.

The shattered treasures represents children whose lives are broken or who have drifted away from their parents . They also represent burdens, dreams, visions and ministries which seem to have died.

ALL HUMAN EFFORT TO CHANGE, IMPROVE CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE "FAILED!!"

Many of these people have exerted all human effort to change and improve the situation and circumstances in their midst. But all seems to have failed and the only remaining expression that comes out from their mouth and heart this season is in the form of silent bowing before the Lord, a surrender which sometimes is accompanied by sighs, groans, questions, longing AND THE HOPE THAT GOD HAS HEARD THEIR PLEA AND WILL COME TO THEIR AID.

LIKE ABRAHAM AND HANNAH-- A GREAT STRETCHING WAS ALLOWED

God has allowed a deep stretching to take place in the hearts of these men and women of God. Like Abraham and Hannah, the Lord has demanded the best from you. He has also required all from you. And YOU HAVE FOLLOWED THROUGH.

QUESTIONS IN THE HEART

Many are wrestling with questions in their heart.

Is the Lord punishing my children now because of my past sins or sins of my ancestor?

Is there a curse in our family?

Have I overlooked something or failed to do anything? Is it my fault Lord?

Am I being tested like Job?

Is this a satanic assault upon us?

The Lord gave these words for me to share. As you read them, I pray that the precious Holy Spirit will breathe His life upon each words.

MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM OUR HEAVENLY FATHER

"I know, I see and I understand everything. The past belongs to Me. Rest in My promise and assurance that as you acknowledge and confess your sins and shortcomings--The blood of the Lamb, My Son, Your Savior is more than sufficient to pay and cover for all and every inequities past, present and future.

"Do not drain yourselves trying to find the answers. Whatever you need to know, I will reveal to you in a very clear manner.

"Instead of focusing within, let your eyes be lifted up towards heaven. Fill your minds with good things. Remind yourselves of who I AM. Focus on the possibilities and not in the impossibilities."

"Do you believe that I AM GOD , that nothing is impossible with Me? That I Am able to work all things for good.? That eyes have not seen, and ears have not heard and mind cannot comprehend what I have prepared for those who love Me?

IF YOU DO, THEN REJOICE!

"Lift up those sad countenances and rest those weary hearts. I have accepted your offerings. I have taken them, and I will bring them back to you-- filled with ALL MY GOODNESS, MERCY AND FAVOR."

"BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD IN THE MIDST OF YOU."

A PRAYER TO OUR FATHER FOR GRACE FOR OUR EMPTY CUPS

"Our Father in heaven, great and mighty God. Awesome, majestic, wonderful.

"Fill our hearts once more with a big dose of GRACE from heaven. Fill our empty cups with more of You. Teach us to learn how to truly rest in You. Give us the FAITH to trust that You will fulfill every promise that You've given to each of us personally,-- to our children and their families, for our ministries and even for ALL our nations.

"We know that You are at work in our midst and soon the earth will once more be filled with Your Glory And that the glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house." (Haggai 2:9)

"Once more, we lay down everything at the feet of Jesus and there it will stay henceforth. We pray all these by faith in our Savior's JESUS CHRIST name. Amen!"

HABAKKUK 2:20

But the Lord is in His Holy temple; let all the earth hush and keep silence before Him.

ZEPHANIAH 1:7

[Hush!] Be silent before the Lord God, for the day [of the vengeance] of the Lord is near; for the Lord has prepared a sacrifice, and He has set apart [for His use] those who have accepted His invitation.

ZECHARIAH 2:13

Be still, all flesh, before the Lord, for He is aroused and risen from His holy habitation.

PSALM 72:17-19

His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun [indeed, His name continues before the sun]. And men shall be blessed and bless themselves by Him; all nations shall call Him blessed!

Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, Who alone does wondrous things!

Blessed be His glorious name forever; let the whole earth be filled with His glory! Amen and Amen!
