I saw this photo of this little boy in a bubble. How in the world did he get inside of it? I am reminded of the vision Cherish saw in one of our family prayer meetings about 6 months ago. We came together to pray because we were in state of fear, anxiety, unsurety of the future, hard-pressed on all sides, really shaken over. The only fortress to run to was to run into God's presence - our family prayer time! As usual after the prayer, there will be debriefing time and we will each give feedback of what we feel, sensed, see visions, pictures, revelations.
Cherish shared that she saw that all of us were travelling inside a dark tunnel and each holding as it were, a thin thread, yet it was strong enough for us to hold on to. The thread was not limp but there was something or someone holding the other end. However, she could not see what or who was at the other end.
THIS picture of the tunnel has some light but THE tunnel that God showed to Cherish was dark and she just knew that we were all going into the tunnel. While travelling inside the dark tunnel, she heard lots of fearful noises, gnawing, growling, knocking, scratching surrounding us. In the vision, she felt such intense, cold-sweat fear but then at that moment, she heard God said "trust me". Somehow, she had the deep assurance that God was there amidst the fearful noises. The vision continued with the next scene of all of us coming out of the tunnel. Whilst outside the tunnel, where there was light, she saw that God was holding the other end of the thread and He was the one pulling us out of the tunnel. She then saw that we were all enclosed in a bubble and outside the bubble she saw the enemies outside trying to gnaw and attacked us but they bounced back because of the protective bubble over us.
God revealed to her that though we are going through a dark tunnel of fears, uncertainty, instability, crisis, as long as we hang on to the thin thread, trusting Him, He will pull us through. Even though our enemies try to attack us, flinging darts and arrows of fears at us, their weapons will bounce back and return back where they came from. God put a protective bubble with safety features enclosing us within all the time.
Having heard the vision, we all broke into tears of relieve, gratefulness, thankfulness to God who cares and love us so much in our hour of crisis. That moment caused us to love God even the more for such a revelation of His protective love.
I was just musing over the God's word "trust me". Not easy to trust in our hour of crisis. Everything outside the bubble seems so real - the noises of gnawing, growling, scratching. They seem about a inch from us, as though the enemies were going to touch us. Being in the dark tunnel and without our knowing, we were all inside God's protective bubble. The thin fine thread, seemingly weak but they were strong, was the only thing we all had to hold on to and at the same time trusting God to lead us all out of the tunnel.
It's like the comparison of a child having heard the word from daddy "jump" from the top of the diving board. The child would just jump, trusting daddy will catch at the bottom of the pool. Sure enough, daddy caught the child and gave a lasting hug before releasing the child to another jump.
Till today, we all remembered that vision and sometimes in our prayer time, we thank God for the bubble of protection over us. Some days, when we receive negative news or when we are being pursued, we do feel such a weight over our spirits and hearts, the spirit of God will just jolt our memory that we are still inside God's bubble and a calm beyond description will just clothe us at that hour. Thank you Dad for your bullet-proof, devil-proof, crisis-proof God-Given-Bubble!!
