France


 

 Word given by Rick Joyner 

10/21/02 

A bold new generation of leaders is about to emerge in France. They will discern and respond to the same prophecy as Joan of Arc, discerning the true King, being willing to fight and sacrifice all to see Him exalted over France. This movement will spark the final reformation movement to sweep the church worldwide. It will be fueled by the restoration of the knowledge of God’s love. The Lord has saved His best wine for last, and France will be a primary source of it.

There will be a revival of the French Foreign Legion (FFL), which will grow in the esteem of the world as an elite force that fights for justice and liberty. The FFL will be a true nation building force, becoming an example to other special forces around the world. This is a sign of France’s call to help build great nations of Africa and the Middle East, where governments will be raised up to benefit and bring prosperity to their people. As France moves toward this calling, her own strength and prosperity will grow, and her people will rise to new heights in art and culture. A great vision of love and human dignity will then arise in France to replace the lust and indignities of pornography.

 

FRANCE, TWO ANGELS - A DIVINE NATIONAL GUARD

A BRIDGE OF GRACE AND REDEMPTION

Whilst in prayer, I had a vision of two majestic angels. These massive beings were being put in position over the nation of France. The angels were touching wing tip to wing tip, head to head and formed an arch type structure. Interestingly, they were set in place above the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France. I enquired of the Lord who they were and asked what they were doing. He replied, ‘One angel is called grace and the other is redemption. They are forming a bridge of grace and redemption, which will be a gateway of blessing from France into Europe and will also bring blessing to America.’

THE ARC DE TRIOMPHE

The angels formed a magnificent archway. It reminded me of the Arc de Triomphe. The Arc de Triomphe was commissioned by Napoleon as a tribute to the French army. It took approximately thirty three years to completely build and was inscribed, "This monument which was begun in 1806 to honor the great army, was left unfinished for many years, was continued in 1823 with a new purpose, and was completed in 1836 in the reign of King Louis-Phillipe I who dedicated it to the glory of France’s armed forces." G A Blouet, architect. The archway was an illustration of the new government’s efforts at national unity and reconciliation.

FRANCE – AMBASSADORS OF RECONCILIATION

Similarly, under Christ’s Government, the Lord is creating an avenue of grace and redemption in the Spirit, dedicated to the Kingship of Christ as Commander of His worshipping ‘army’ of believers. This double spiritual blessing will enable the French church to come together in national unity and speaks of an anointing for reconciliation that will be released in and through France. The reconciliation process is similar in some ways to the building pattern of the Arc de Triomphe (see highlights in preceding paragraph). Much work has already been accomplished in the area of reconciliation, but it is, as yet, unfinished and will be continued in this next season with renewed vigor and perhaps with different emphasis’. Ultimately, the fruit of reconciliation will be a harvest of souls.

The reconciliation process and prayer thrust will begin in France and will then have a ripple effect reaching out and embracing other nations. I felt strongly impressed that a greater degree of national reconciliation between England and France is very much on the Lord’s heart. I saw gatherings of people from various nations, at strategic sites in France and throughout Europe (some of which were previous battle sites/places of warfare) and a work of repentance was being released. Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands will reap a mighty blessing through this work and will join the French church in the work of repentance and reconciliation.

The divine archway speaks of peace and abundance and the call is to enter in to the blessing. The reconciliation will not just happen by itself – it has to be embraced, received, believed, facilitated and prayerfully/worshipfully responded to. There is a window of grace for France in this regard.

THE EIFFEL TOWER

The Eiffel Tower was inaugurated on 31 March 1889 to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the French Revolution. Gustave Eiffel built it in only 26 months. The Eiffel Tower was the world’s tallest building until the construction of New York’s Chrysler building in 1930.

God is imparting an anointing to build the kingdom in France. The anointing will be released in the reconciliation process. God is shaping his church and I have a profound sense of much work being accomplished in a relatively short space of time (just as the Eiffel Tower was built in an extraordinary short time frame). The release and increase of the apostolic anointing is part of the blessing of grace for France in the days that lie ahead.

The Lord calls the church in France to intimacy and to lift her head and gaze into Father’s eyes of love. He calls the church to a revolution of holiness, that embraces liberty (Col 5:1), equality (Gal 3:26-29) and fraternity (Heb 2:10-12, 1 Pe 2:16,17) in Christ.


"My beloved France,

I have placed my angels grace and redemption over your nation. I call you to peace and abundance. I call you to lay down triumphalism and to take up the mantle of humility and embrace the victory and triumph I achieved over death at Calvary. Be reconciled to your Father and be reconciled to your brothers.

You are a nation where in times past, violence has been used to achieve revolutionary aims. Your forefathers fought for fundamental human rights because the people were oppressed and your government and sovereignty corrupt. I have come to call you to a revolution of intimacy and holiness. I have come to set the prisoners free. My Government is righteous and holy and I am a loving King and trusted Monarch. I sovereignly care for the oppressed, the orphans and the widows. There is Grace to trust Me as Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. I have redeemed you from slavery and oppression. I am not a self- interested God. I care about My children and the land. I call you as My children and desire that you embrace My Fatherhood. Under my Fatherhood, all may achieve high status as sons of God and brothers of Christ.

I have created you a nation of thinkers, yet some of you have become prisoners to liberalism and humanistic thinking. You are independent and rebellious. You have become self-functioning. Turn and be reconciled to your heavenly Father and use your gifting to glorify My Name. I will give you strategies for spiritual warfare that will bless many nations, if you will turn and depend wholly and only on Me.

I call you to be ambassadors of reconciliation and to build a bridge of reconciliation for Europe and the nations. I commission you to build and not tear down, to pioneer and to plant.

The French churches will embark on a new wave of mission to Africa and China. Russia will also receive a blessing in this wave of missionary zeal, which will accomplish great works in My Name. The French church will fight against injustice in the missionary field, in government and through the judicial system for those who are oppressed by unrighteousness and will know victory in My Son ’

Amen
