FRANCE: Prophetic words for France
|
Signs across the English Channel
Jerry Bowers, Pray California
While in prayer on April 19th 2006 the Lord showed me the English Channel. He said, “Keep your eyes on the Channel. There are more signs to come on the waters." I saw some large fish jumping. He then said, “Look across the Channel to France. Her youth are being called. They are seeking to hold on to their destinies. Tell them, ‘Their destinies are not found in what man can give, but in the way of the Cross.’ Let them turn to me and I will restore what man has taken. I will restore. I am the Provider. Seek My face in this hour of crisis and a great awakening will cover France. Keep your eyes on the Channel. I am moving across the Channel.”
Prophetic Word for France
Feb 19th, 2006
Priscilla Van Sutphin
As I was sitting playing one cell on the computer and praying in tongues, I suddenly started hearing the Marseillaise in my mind. I only remember a small part but the tune was clear. So I looked it up and was surprised by the words in English. I realized God must have something to say and quieted myself to hear…
“My children of France. Destiny is upon you. Once again in your borders are tyrants and those who would slit your throats. Will you turn to the One Who loves you ? Will you bravely CONFRONT these who need to know ME ? Will you go OUT into the neighborhoods and streets and proclaim the TRUTH of MY LOVE for them, and turn their weapons of warfare into naught ? Will you also fight on your knees for the life of your nation ? Will you WORSHIP with abandonment, that I may rain down glory in the midst of the turmoil and tension. I know that people are at attention right now.
There is rumbling in the halls of France ! There is a beating of drums as well…war drums. Will you war on your knees that lives may be saved before they go home to meet their Maker ? Will you consider how many within your borders are in GREAT NEED of LOVE and affection that ONLY I can bring to them ? You are not called to be quiet placaters, but you are called to be PROPHETS ! If you will worship Me with all your heart, and war in the dance, I will reign down glory ! [ purposely misspelled]
I lift up and I put down. It is I Who sit in the heavens and I laugh at my adversaries! Pray for hearts to be turned to the KING OF KINGS and the LORD of LORDS. Pray for the ancient foundations to be restored. When Rome was corrupt you tried to succeed from the papal state. You have always had a heart for justice.
I will revive the heart of your nation to worship Me, but you must fight by also laying down your life instead of clinging to your idols, including safety and comfort. You must lay aside all fear of loss, and speak TRUTH in LOVE. Be assured that I will follow it with demonstrations, signs and wonders. But without a preacher, how will they know ? Without someone to demonstrate TRUTH & LOVE how will they know. I have called you to LOVE YOUR ENEMIES. I have not called you to placate or be intimidated by domination and control. I have called you to glory. Lay down your life, and I will honor you with MY LIFE, My resurrection life that will turn all men to ME ! Dying to self is the key. LOVE is the GREATEST.
Do not allow yourselves to be terrorized, but respond with love and TRUTH. In the midst of violence I will be your Defender ! Do not fear, for I AM WITH YOU. I AM EMMANUEL ! I am Jehovah Sabaoth, and I AM your Salvation ! I AM THE WAY. I AM the TRUTH. I AM THE LIFE, and the LIGHT of the WORLD. I will make My face to shine upon you as you lay down your own life and take up MY LIFE. I will heal the blind and I will heal the deaf and mute. I will make the lame leap like a deer. I will make a way in the midst of troubles and hardship. TURN, TURN, TURN to ME for I love you with an everlasting love.”
I then saw a vision of the French flag all ablaze, but I sensed it was ablaze with the fire of GOD !
La Marseillaise
French National Anthem
La Marseillaise was composed by Claude-Joseph Rouget de Lisle in 1792 and was declared the French national anthem in 1795.
Let's go children of the fatherland,
The day of glory has arrived!
Against us tyranny's
Bloody flag is raised! (repeat)
In the countryside, do you hear
The roaring of these fierce soldiers?
They come right to our arms
To slit the throats of our sons, our friends!
Refrain
Grab your weapons, citizens!
Form your batallions!
Let us march! Let us march!
May impure blood
Water our fields!
This horde of slaves, traitors, plotting kings,
What do they want? For whom these vile shackles,
These long-prepared irons? (repeat)
Frenchmen, for us, oh! what an insult!
What emotions that must excite!
It is us that they dare to consider
Returning to ancient slavery!
What! These foreign troops
Would make laws in our home!
What! These mercenary phalanxes
Would bring down our proud warriors! (repeat)
Good Lord! By chained hands
Our brows would bend beneath the yoke!
Vile despots would become
The masters of our fate!
Tremble, tyrants! and you, traitors,
The disgrace of all groups,
Tremble! Your parricidal plans
Will finally pay the price! (repeat)
Everyone is a soldier to fight you,
If they fall, our young heros,
France will make more,
Ready to battle you!
Frenchmen, as magnanimous warriors,
Bear or hold back your blows!
Spare these sad victims,
Regretfully arming against us. (repeat)
But not these bloodthirsty despots,
But not these accomplices of Bouillé,
All of these animals who, without pity,
Tear their mother's breast to pieces!
Sacred love of France,
Lead, support our avenging arms!
Liberty, beloved Liberty,
Fight with your defenders! (repeat)
Under our flags, let victory
Hasten to your manly tones!
May your dying enemies
See your triumph and our glory!
Refrain
We will enter the pit
When our elders are no longer there;
There, we will find their dust
And the traces of their virtues. (repeat)
Much less eager to outlive them
Than to share their casket,
We will have the sublime pride
Of avenging them or following them!
Refrain
La Marseillaise
Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé !
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'étendard sanglant est levé ! (bis)
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes,
Mugir ces féroces soldats ?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Égorger nos fils, nos compagnes !
Refrain
Aux armes, citoyens !
Formez vos bataillons !
Marchons ! Marchons !
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !
Que veut cette horde d'esclaves,
De traîtres, de rois conjurés ?
Pour qui ces ignobles entraves,
Ces fers dès longtemps préparés ? (bis)
Français ! pour nous, ah ! quel outrage !
Quels transports il doit exciter !
C'est nous qu'on ose méditer
De rendre à l'antique esclavage !
Quoi ! ces cohortes étrangères
Feraient la loi dans nos foyers !
Quoi ! ces phalanges mercenaires
Terrasseraient nos fiers guerriers ! (bis)
Grand Dieu ! par des mains enchaînées
Nos fronts sous le joug se ploiraient !
De vils despotes deviendraient
Les maîtres de nos destinées !
Tremblez, tyrans ! et vous, perfides,
L'opprobre de tous les partis,
Tremblez ! vos projets parricides
Vont enfin recevoir leur prix ! (bis)
Tout est soldat pour vous combattre,
S'ils tombent, nos jeunes héros,
La France en produit de nouveaux,
Contre vous tout prêts à se battre !
Français, en guerriers magnanimes,
Portez ou retenez vos coups !
Épargnez ces tristes victimes,
A regret s'armant contre nous. (bis)
Mais ces despotes sanguinaires,
Mais ces complices de Bouillé,
Tous ces tigres qui, sans pitié,
Déchirent le sein de leur mère !
Amour sacré de la patrie,
Conduis, soutiens nos bras vengeurs !
Liberté, Liberté chérie,
Combats avec tes défenseurs ! (bis)
Sous nos drapeaux, que la victoire
Accoure à tes mâles accents !
Que tes ennemis expirants
Voient ton triomphe et notre gloire !
Refrain
Nous entrerons dans la carrière
Quand nos aînés n'y seront plus ;
Nous y trouverons leur poussière
Et la trace de leurs vertus. (bis)
Bien moins jaloux de leur survivre
Que de partager leur cercueil,
Nous aurons le sublime orgueil
De les venger ou de les suivre !

Prophetic Word Over France.
David Wagner
Nov 8, 2005
I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying:
"I am releasing a purifying fire over the nation of France. I shall prove who I am to a people who have turned their backs on me. Turn back to me at once and see me do a new thing within your borders. Even in these days of unrest I shall prove myself to the French people and I shall show forth many great signs and wonders in the midst of the people who have denied me."
"The violence in the streets you have been witnessing is only the beginning of assaults that shall come against this land but I will prove myself faithful. I will do a new thing among the French people and their hearts shall be turned by the signs and wonders that I will perform in their midst".
"Paris has been given over to the enemy for many centuries. The French have entertained false gods and have given themselves over to idolatry. However, like a husband who pursues his wife although she is a harlot, I am reclaiming the adulterous nation for my own again in this season. If my people will arise and take their places of prayer, I will bring forth an outpouring of my Spirit like never before in France and it shall spread into other nations from there."
"France has been known for its wine and its food but it shall become also known for the bread of life, and the new wine of my Spirit that I am releasing to my people there."
"The youth and children are the key instruments of change that I will use in the nation of France. I am sending a mass invasion of missionaries that will focus on this generation says the Lord. I am raising up a mighty army of young end time warriors that shall even turn the hardest of hearts including the radical Islamic extremists says the Lord."
"Church this is your season to arise in Western Europe. Do not sit idle any longer, but work the harvest fields while it is yet day. The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Will you go for me? Will you take your place in this pivotal region of the earth? These are days of grace but great judgment is coming. Prepare and position yourselves and see what I can and will do on your behalf says the Lord of Hosts."
As I was typing this word I saw a bull's eye painted on some major leaders in Europe. The enemy was targeting some leaders for assassination and God was targeting others as deliverers. Believers must pray for this area of the world like never before it is a very crucial time in history. Revival will come and change will come if the church will pray and respond to the voice of the Lord in these trouble filled days.

this word was in a larger word called Rider's in the Storm!!!
IS PARIS BURNING?
The Holy Spirit is coming with fires first of repentance! He is coming with fires of holiness! If they do not repent the fires of judgment are coming!!! Fire will descend on the coastlands Ez 39:6. France has more coastlands than any other European nation. Who is the Keeper of the Flame?
I brought you to Sacre Coeur. I brought you to the nations that have denied my Passion-trampling my blood. I have brought restoration to my remnant beloved church since year 2000. I have brought a fire of passion by my Spirit to those with eyes who can see and ears who can hear.
Ez 39:21 And I will set My glory among the nations; all the nations will see judgments which I have executed, and My hand which I have laid on them. 22 "So the house of Israel shall know that I am the lord their God from that day forward." I love you .I am blue without you. I love the thunder in you the volcano of fiery lava.
Visions- Lord carrying His cross. I saw Angel of His Presence blowing a trumpet with glory. I saw a man's femur bone. I hear the vows of those who have disassociated their hearts from their lives. I hear the cries of those who hate themselves. The love of the Father will establish the love of life. I think I see the bones coming together. Ez 38 & 39
For want of a nail, a shoe was lost, For want of a shoe, a horse was lost, For want of a horse, a rider was lost, For want of a message, a battle was lost, For want of a battle, a kingdom was lost! (Folklore) For WANT!
LOVE, KATHLEEN PIRL

Love your sister in Christ,
Tina Ames
I would like to share what the Lord is speaking to me about France's Jacque Chirac.
I have spontaneously started singing Frere Jacque every morning this week, not having a clue why I'm singing it until today when revelation hit.
It is to intercede for France and for France's President Jacque Chirac.
I pray France will turn to the Lord and cry out for His love to heal their land.
Frere Jacque, Frere Jacque
Dormez-vous, Dormez-vous?
Sonnez-lez matines, sonnez-lez matines.
Ding, ding, dong.
Ding, ding, dong.
Brother John (Chirac)
Brother John
Are you sleeping? Are you sleeping?
Morning Bells are ringing.
Morning Bells are ringing.
Ding, ding, dong.
Ding, ding, dong.
The Holy Spirit is saying Jacque Chirac, Are you sleeping? Morning Bells are ringing! Please wake up, please wake up France.
Sleeping Beauty, sleeping beauty.
Morning Bells are ringing, Listen carefully the Lord is Here He is Near.
He will heal you, He will heal you,
if you cry out, if you cry out.
Repentance comes before Him,
Repentance comes before Him,
To cleanse your land, cleanse your land.
Bread and wine, bread and wine,
will give you life, come to me
I have something for you, a gift of Me.

"PRAYER FOR FRANCE"
by Ueli and Charlotte' Surbeck
Nov. 16. 2005
Dear friends,
like you all now, France goes through a difficult time and we want to share this two visions with you, to increase interecession for this precious nation!
Vision: October 30, 2005
I had a vision and saw 3 flags at half mask, (I remember asking Ueli if they flew their flags at half mask in France and for what occasion would they be doing this?) He said at the death of the President) and I saw President Chirac walking with his close people and starting down a staircase at a hotel, I saw a gun barrel come out of a space below at another hotel across the street and shoot him, he fell down the stairs to the bottom...He died...
I immediately felt that Switzerland was reactng to this news in a very negitive way...
Vision: November 10, 2005
Ueli and I were driving thru Tennessee to North Carolina on that Wednesday,I went into intercession for France, I immediatly put my jacket over my head and started to pray for France. I went into a vision at that point and I saw France as a country, I saw a fire start at the SE border to Italy, Then the SW corner started to ignite and then the fire moved over towards the center joined the other fire and moved up and up and started burning the entire country until it was entirely engulfed and consumed. I saw a pool of water in the center of the country but it wasn't enough to stop the fire, (This reprented a weak body of Christ and it wasn't strong enough to stop the fire.) (when we received this second vision, we didn't hear of the insurgence happening in France (who started about one week before, as we where ministering and traveling at that time)
a comment:
concerning the first vision. its not the only voice who received, that President Chirac would not fullfill his mandate. I believe that this is another confirmation of what the Lord already said. so please pray for his salvation. one thing is clear if this would happen soon, as France goes through this struggle, the possibility that France would fall into the hand of a right wing move is very much possible, and would mean, that France would realy go through a time of serious struggle, and thats somehow what the second vision was talking about. I sense the second vision was more then just explaining what is happening right now, but showing what is to come. There is certainly a possibility that things can be changed by prayer and repentance, but I don't think that this can totaly be turned away, no way....I ratter believe that this second prophecy is to prepare you for difficult times, as at this point judgment seems to be coming to France. And it has a very importend purpose: to cleanse the nation and the Church and to bring it back on track! Yes those who truly walk with the Lord will be preserved and will have great victories. But please pray, pray, pray for France! For my dear swiss brothers and sisters, please pray for France, there is still a deep wound which has to be healed between Switzerland and France and i hope and pray, that in this coming years the Lord can heal this and use this time to bring us much closer to France and our dear brothers and sisters there!
may the Lord bless you a fresh
Ueli and Charlotte'

Musa Opiyo says:
I just read the word and vision from Dave Hood (below) and I bear total witness to it 100%. What I see with France same as David is that the Lord has called her to a unique place in Europe in terms of revival..that she will be used to usher a mighty revival of God within Europe. There is that tenacity reflected in the French revolution which reflects her nature spiritually and it is that tenacity of faith that will allow God to do the impossible in Europe and that is why Satan has attacked France so much and caused as it were a lulling and what I would call a spiritual 'sleepiness' over France. Yet what I feel is, exactly as David has pointed out, France is a damsel in distress and in so much need of God but she must be willing to put all pride aside and cry out unto God. Unless there is a united heartfelt cry, how else can God intervene?

"The Woman and the Bastille"
As I was reflecting upon the past year and wondering what may lay ahead for this New Year, the Lord gave me a word. It was designed as such for two purposes. The one being the question for Europe..Who is thy neighbour and the other of France as to her place and time in the history, within the scheme of things
How this came about was the result of the Lord taking me back to my early Christian days and reminded me of a woman that emerged from an alleyway in Newcastle during the day time. This woman was oddly dressed, in that her clothes looked almost Victorian. She had a coat on top of a long billowing dark dress that had underneath it layers of other clothing, which flared out from a tight waist. She had an eccentric type hat and her hands were laden with bags and carrier bags and she did not want to interact with the busy crowd on the main street. As a result she darted off on her own path going to her own place, keeping her own company.
As I sat and waited upon the Lord, it occurred to me that this type of woman was similar to the type that one encountered as a member of the lowest public classes that existed at the time of the French Revolution where the aristocrats were now being overthrown by such a member of the social grouping to which this woman belonged
I felt that what I was seeing about this woman was what I was being shown about France. I do not purport to know much if anything of note about French history, but I felt the Spirit was showing me the place of France now. This is what transpired.
The woman was French and her clothing represented revolutionary dress, which had many layers and ruffs, layers like an onion would have. Just as this woman had many layers to protect herself from the exposures to the street living, so has France covered herself with many layers to protect herself from the cold, a self imposed exile or an exile of circumstances.
The woman appeared eccentric and out of place, a wanderer. A carrier of baggage. She was embarrassed by her predicament. In pondering this, these words came “Its time to separate the many layers, to reveal its place, its true place in history, not living like as in the past, but to live to and prepare its time for the future” “Its time for her to understand her many dimensions and tides of understanding, time to remove the dirt of embarrassment protected of its history”
Following this came the words from God….vive la revolution…He is about a revolution and is gladdened by it.
I then was given a picture of the storming of the Bastille and on one of its right hand round towers was a single window about two thirds of the way up from the ground and about another third from the top of this rounded turret type tower. From amongst the crowds at the foot of the walls a single ladder extended upward to this single window. Only one man was attempting to reach this window and free those inside. The ladder did not extend past the window, in fact it gave the impression it was not tall enough to go further than that window. Though it seemed important that there might be an attempt to reach the top of the tower.
With this picture came the words…may she be freed from her history, to take her place in history. It was almost as if the person in the window was a female and the window was a portal of and too Frances history. The reason this window was attempted to be reached was the prisoner, female France was unable to free herself, from and out of the placements of her isolation. It came to me that this was a time for setting her free from her prisoners.
God is longing to help her. He reminded me of the time of the woman with an issue of blood, when she came to Jesus. She had failed to help herself even though she had tried, like the woman with the bags she has no hands free to reach out to Him. She is dirty and alone, ashamed and alienated in the crowd.
She needs to know…God wants to touch her..for her to know that even in her fear and shame, she can make contact with Him….He wants to be touched by her. He wants her to reach Him.
Just as the woman with an issue had her gender, need and failure separating from peace and fellowship, so to did the woman of the streets have her many layers of clothing and her burdens separating her from man.
For France His woman, God has been prepared and is prepared and has provided His way to go past her barriers. Her problem seems to be that as she does so she fears isolation, ridicule and scorn of her neighbours. She, France does not want to show them how she really is. This reflects as does history, the sense of her being possibly in the weakest place and time in history.
It was here that I had 3 points shown to me.
1. Who is my neighbour….Germany…external place
2. The Revolution…the internal place and heart need
3. Wine and trade….the social and cultural place
Here then came a picture of a great strong waterfall wide and deep, with these words…”He wants the waters of His fall to drench her and not drown her, His waters and their fall, to feed her Him”
The revolution was a fall of society and can be seen as destructive, he wants the type of fall from her current tide place and waters, to bring about for her the power of His own and free her from the worlds, and world’s powers destructive forces.
He has no desire for her to be overtaken by the tsunami of her geographical collapse, for that is coming, where she will be overwhelmed and not able to stand on the plates, the foundations of her history and formings. But with Him to go through a collapse that he will engineer in order for her to find her place in history. She is included in the cup of His world’s dreams.
God wants her to be invited to the party, to include her and not exclude her. God delights in weakness to share his strength.
I reflected on the ladder leading up a tower of the Bastille. It seemed to represent a climbing of the ladders of His heart to know what is in His mind…. These words “ past My windows to know my higher calling, my higher mind.”
The window represented his eye
This in turn reflected what was in His soul.
The soul was His heart which led to His eyes,
It was here one would begin to see and understand the mind behind the eyes.
He said this…”human ladders only take you so far and that is not far enough” that is why the ladder was only so high reaching to the window only and not beyond. God, like for the woman with an issue of blood is wanting her to acquire the ladder of faith so that He, God is finding a way through. This to reflects her being in the position of Israel…pursued by the Egyptians (world system) and hemmed in by the desert and sea….God is finding a way through for her to see that she can go across on dry ground and to see her enemies washed up on the shores.. Creating new boundaries for God and not the stone shifting boundaries of man. Here he reminded me that the English Channel is Britain’s Jordan…could it also be Frances Jordan
Looking back at the picture of the storming of the window, one could not help feel that France was the damsel in the tower and Gods purpose is not just to set her free but also to occupy the turrets, beyond the level of the ladder, like Elijah after Carmel…to go up higher… to reach the top
Here I was given a picture with my face and body clinging to the wall of the Bastilles tower looking up to the bottom edge of the window, but also to beyond, the top of the tower, its turret….there I saw above it and upon its top a fire, a fire storm which cloaked its top and was coming from heaven from the beyond.
Here I was shown that this fire would act as a signal, but I also had these words…a fire, a burning of the guillotines of pride,
At this stage I recalled the thought….taking us back to the beginning…France is feeling exceedingly more lost in the crowd….but God wants her to reach up and find the ladder of heaven to reach His top, His height.

A PROPHETIC WORD FOR FRANCE
Priscilla Van Sutphin - Sept 2004
I have seen the agony and the years of the oppression from the vain philosophies of men, and I have seen the corruption and disdain for Me in many. But again, in you I have seen many who love Me with all their hearts and what you thought would overtake you will NOT. For I will bring it down and you will have a resurgence of prayer and worship that will usher in revival more than you've seen in centuries. You are RICH in suffering in the hands of vain leaders, but I remember your suffering and I will RESTORE to you a wealth of many generations that suffered. I will redeem your youth and bring them to other nations to sow seeds of love and humility. Where you have been prideful like the Americans, you will become humble and walk in great GRACE. Amidst the great swell of antichrist activities you will blossom and shine as diamonds among onyx stones.

Word given by Rick Joyner on 10/21/02 for France
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.

A PROPHETIC WORD FOR FRANCE
Fire Over France
By Chad Taylor
July 2001
I saw a pillar of holy fire over France and the Lord said, 'I will burn with My glory over France. I will remember the words of former prophecies from centuries ago and now they will burn. They will burn like a city upon a hill that cannot be hid. They will burn like a pillar of fire by night and pillar of smoke by day. It will lead My people from Captivity. IT will cast the rider and the horse into the sea and My people will surely be set free.'
I saw stars falling from the sky and hitting Paris France and the Lord said, 'I will send My messengers and harvesting angels to this city. They will put in the sickle for the harvest is ripe. They will position My church in this city for harvest and revival. They will upset ancient principalities and open the leaved gates. Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut... (Isaiah 45:1).
I saw the city burning and the sea reflecting its glory and the Lord said, 'I will burn with such an intensity from this place it will be seen from across the sea and they will be in awe. The lowly and the famous shall come to this place to worship Me. I will be lifted up and then draw all to Myself. And like the sea I will cover this place with My glory. Kings and those in high place shall now turn and be saved. Those with royal blood and the blood of those that once conquered will now bow their knee to Me and be saved. This is the hour that I will light a fire in Paris France says the Lord.
I saw a generation of youth on fire like torches in the Lord's hand and then the Lord said, 'I will capture the hearts of France's youth. I will ravish their heart and take them into the secret place, the holy place. They will take up the sword of My Spirit and win nations. They will cross land and seas for Me to set the captives free. They will be gallant and do exploits. For this is the destiny of the Lord for My seed in France, "Before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you, and I ordained you a prophet to the nations" O France. I called you and set you aside. (Jeremiah 1:5).
I saw a storm forming over France with lightning and thunder and the Lord said, 'A storm of political controversy is forming over France, but from this storm they will see the Lord upon the water and they will cry out to Me. From this storm of controversy they will cry out to Me and I will hold their hand and lift them up from the storm. I will lift them up and save them. For I remember the covenants I made with their forefathers, and I will surely give them the land that I promised their forefathers. I will surely give them the land says the Lord. I will surely give them back the land.
I saw a mighty river coming out of France filling the sea and then the Lord said, 'A mighty river of revival will come from this place. A mighty river that will water Africa, that will sustain nations and cities. A river that will rush through America reminding her of her first love. A river that will bridge the gap between nations and churches creating an atmosphere for My glory. Out of France's belly will flow river's of living water. Out of France's belly rivers of living water and the nations will be healed.
PREPARE YOURSELF O FRANCE! THE FIRE OF MY GLORY IS UPON YOU AND THE DAY OF THE LORD HAS DRAWN NIGH!

A PROPHETIC WORD FOR FRANCE
France "Harvest, Harvest, Harvest"
Catherine Brown
http://www.gatekeepers.org.uk/normal/
May 9, 2003
On Monday of this week I was in prayer for France, when I saw a majestic angel and heard a mighty shout. The angel held a sickle in his hand and cried out, "Harvest, harvest, harvest." I then saw a long line of angels who were holding trumpets, some of which were gold and some of which were silver. The angels lifted the trumpets and blew - hard!
Suddenly, the first angel swept his harvest sickle across France. There was an immediate burst of glory-filled light across the land. The light seemed to be most concentrated in the areas of Brittany and in the Loire valley. As I write this, the word Dordogne is also being impressed in my spirit. (Forgive my ignorance, but I am not sure if Dordogne is a part of either of these two areas of France). The Light represents spiritual awakening, salvations and a deep revelation of the majesty and sovereignty of Christ.
I was lifted up in the Spirit and as I looked down on vineyard after vineyard, I was amazed to see bunches of ripe grapes turn from their natural coloured hues to become pure white.
I heard the voice of the angel with the sickle speak once more and he said, "Prepare for harvest."
Truly the fields are as white unto harvest.

France - Passion and Pleasure
A Word for France
Passion and Pleasure

Note: This is the second of three words given to us concerning the wonderful, glorious nation of France. We are blessed to share in the Lord's heart for this wonderful beautiful nation. Yes, as many see it, France may be in darkness but I prefer to see it with God's eyes of love - as a nation upon which He shall shine with the glory of His presence so that the heavenly realm may exclaim in awe and wonder, "Look what the Lord has done!" Please forward to anyone that you may know in this nation.
2 Corinthians 6:16-18
What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said, 'I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people. Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
God is extending an invitation to this land, a divine invitation.
"Come out. Be separate. Partake of the new wine of My pleasure and My passion."
The Lord has saved the best wine for last - the best wine of His pleasure over the nation of France.
The Lord says,
"I have waited so long for My people to come unto Me. There is a passion in this land, but it is not My passion. It is a passion for the pleasures of this world which will never satisfy, which can never satisfy for I have chosen you for Myself. What you have chased for so long is a perverted passion dictated to you by the world, the flesh, and the devil. Yet, I am calling a people unto Myself - back to Me. For I look with tenderness upon the people of France - for they are helpless and harassed, sheep without a shepherd. Let Me shepherd you, oh nation. For you have a reputation among the nations of the world - a reputation of passion and pleasure, but it is not My passion nor My pleasure. For I long to pour out upon this nation My passion and My pleasure."
There is a remnant that God is raising up in this nation - one that will walk in an opposing spirit of purity and holiness, a remnant clean and clothed in white linen, unspoiled and detached from the world.
I then received this verse:
Zechariah 2:5
'And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declared the Lord, 'and I will be its glory within.'
The glory of the Lord will arise when the passions of men have been replaced and burned up by the fire of the love of God, allowing the glory of the Lord to arise in the midst of His people.
Then I heard the Lord say,
"For you have a reputation among the nations of the world for being lovers - lovers of self, lovers of art, lovers of fashion, lovers of fine wine and food, lovers of reputation and honor. But I will bring you back to wholehearted passion, an absolute surrender to become lovers of your God. For I call you a 'gateway nation' but what have you allowed in, oh nation to spoil and pervert my purpose for you in these days?"
I sensed that the Lord would extend the reach of His heart through the remnant of France to the nations beyond its reach - Africa and Asia. He will raise up through this nation, evangelists after His heart for souls who will carry the Gospel to the corners of the earth.

France - A Generation Under Deception
A Word for France
A Generation Under Deception
Debra Westbrook
10/23/02
Note: In October 2000, God spoke to my heart that I was to be in France in October 2002 to prophesy and pray over the nation. For two years, I waited upon God to send me there. On Sunday October 6, I stepped out in faith with my Canadian friend, Trudy, to go to France from October 6-16, 2002. In the middle of these dates, we also took a side trip to Helsinki, Finland where we ministered in home meetings.
While in France, God began to birth a series of 3 prophetic words concerning the nation, the young generation of emerging leaders in France, and the coastal areas of Nice, close to the Mediterranean Sea. I will post these words in 3 consecutive days. I pray that you may consider forwarding these to any contacts that you have in this wonderful nation where God shall pour forth His glory in the coming days.
As we walked the streets of Paris, God began to stir His passion in my heart for the young generation that He is going to raise up in the nation of France to show forth His glory. He immediately sent me to Genesis 28 regarding His word for these young warriors.
He spoke to me saying,
"This is a generation under deception."
In this passage of Scripture in Genesis, we see that Jacob, whose name means deceiver, took a vow at Bethel. In this place, he laid his head upon a rock. Then he dreamed and saw a ladder set up on earth, with its top reaching to heaven. On this ladder the angels of God were ascending and descending. The Lord stood above it and proclaimed His covenant relationship with Jacob along with promises to His generation as well as the generations of his forefathers. At the end of this, upon awaking, Jacob exclaimed, "Surely the Lord is in this place and I did not know it". In wonder, he then proclaimed, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God and this is the gate of heaven." In reverence to God, he took the rock that he had put under his head, poured oil on top of it and set it up as a pillar, calling the place Bethel. The Jacob took a vow unto the Lord. Several chapters later in Genesis 32, we find Jacob wrestling with an angel, and receiving a new name. He no longer was called Jacob, but was now called Israel.
Here is what God impressed upon my heart.
There is a generation of young people living under an identity of deception in the nation of France. This generation, like Jacob, is indeed called and chosen of God to do mighty exploits in His name. They are indeed a Jacob generation who shall find their place in Christ, laying their head upon the Rock. While turning to the living reality of their Savior, the heavens shall open and they shall enter into a realm of revelation that will reveal to them characteristics of their Savior that shall break them loose from being under this deception. The Truth in the person of Jesus Christ shall indeed set them free. The revelations will be astounding to them as God sets them on fire with a passion for His presence.
This generation of young people, like Jacob, have an identity of deception, many living their life outside of the living reality of Christ Jesus. But things shall change by the hand of our God. The windows of heaven shall open over this generation and they shall enter a realm of incredible revelation. God shall reveal Himself as a covenant keeping God who has not forsaken them or forgotten them. He shall reveal Himself under an open heaven as a God that is high and lifted up, mighty, awesome, faithful and true, keeping His promises to all generations.
In response to this revelation of the reality of a living God, they shall reply as Jacob, "Surely the Lord God is in this place. How awesome is this place! This is the gate of heaven!"
I saw a young generation that has been ripped off, deceived and kept from the truth, the living reality of Jesus Christ, because of the hardness and indifference that has developed over the years to the Gospel in this nation. God is going to change and is now changing all of this by His mighty hand. He alone shall prevail in their lives in the midst of darkness. The nation shall indeed shine forth with the light of His glory and a powerful move of God shall flourish within the youth of this nation. They shall walk forth in a new identity and a strong authority, having wrestled with God and prevailing as mighty warriors.

France - I AM, The Famous One
A Word for France
I AM, the Famous One
Debra Westbrook
11/5/02
Note: This is the 3rd and final word for France that God revealed to us during our recent trip in October. This word was given to us while in Nice, France and took us quite by surprise as we felt the intensity of God's passion for this area as well as the nations of the world.
While in Nice, walking along the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, God prompted my heart that we were to go back to the hotel for He was going to reveal His heart to us in intercession for this part of France. As we got back to the room, we began to play the new Passion CD and when it got to the song, "Famous One", the Spirit of God invaded our space with an intensity of purpose and desire for His people. This song declares that God alone is the famous one, known throughout the nations of the earth, ready to move in marvelous and wonderful ways among His people as the knowledge of the glory of God covers the earth as the waters cover the sea.
I heard the Lord simply say:
"I am the famous One. I will be exalted among My people and among the nations of the earth."
The Lord began to speak to us that many have come to this part of the world -kings, queens, movie stars, wealthy business people, the very elite of the world's rich and famous, yet not one can stand up and be counted of any glory and splendor when compared to the famous one that rules heaven and earth in glory, splendor and majesty. The Lord will bring down the high places that exist within man's heart and replace them with a greater revelation of His Son, Jesus Christ, the King, the Famous One, the Beautiful one, the Amazing one.
The wealth of the nations shall be laid at His feet for He alone owns everything. He will topple the dynasties that have existed within the rich of the rich, the elite of the elite as the world systems begin to erode and even their best efforts in business and financial tactics cannot provide them with the security and peace that is found in Christ Jesus. Those in this area that are hidden and considered of no account shall arise in power and authority to take their rightful position to be counted for Christ. No longer shall they be the tail but the head as God exalts the humble, hidden for many years while at the same time resisting the proud.
"I and the famous one. I will be exalted among the nations. All nations shall bow before the King of Kings and Lord of Lords."
This is a place deemed by the world as a gathering place for the beautiful people. Yet, the Lord says,
"There is a beauty yet to be revealed through My Son and the emergence of His Bride that will astound many in the coming days.What earthly beauty can compare to the glory and beauty that shall arise within, upon and through my people."
The beauty of the Lord shall be displayed upon God' remnant in France and throughout the nations of the world and the beauty of mere flesh shall pale in comparison to the beauty of the Son.
Psalm 50:1-2
The mighty one, God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets. From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.
This is a place highly esteemed by the world as where many STARS come from the entertainment industry to applaud and fawn over each other in a myriad of ways. Yet, the Lord would say,
"Even these shall pale by comparison to the one who is the bright and Morning star, who set the very stars in place and numbered them each one by one, bestowing upon them beauty and splendor for all of creation to see the hand of Creator God."
Revelation 22:16
I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.
This is a place set apart by the world as a place where royalty has stayed and played. Kings and queens of earthly kingdoms have made a mark here among the rich and famous.
Yet the Lord would say,
"The world will see the King of Glory in His rightful place and position, enthroned, high and lifted up for all the world to see."
Isaiah 60:1
Arise, shine for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
Psalm 24:8-10
Who is this King of Glory? The Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of Glory may come in. Who is He, this King of Glory? The Lord Almighty - He is the King of Glory, Selah.
This is a place where the rich and wealthy have extended their influence and power, yet the Lord would say,
"What is Your wealth compared to mine?"
Revelation 3:17
You say, "I am rich. I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing. But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked."
1 Chronicles 29:11-12
"Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power, and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, O Lord, is the Kingdom; You are exalted as head over all. Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things. In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all."
It is very clear. God shall bring forth the remnant in France, hidden from the eyes of the world up to this point, passionately waiting for the release of their Lord, the lover of their soul. They have been sealed with the precious Holy Spirit and now shall be revealed in His glory in the days ahead. The time is NOW! Keep your eyes focused on your Lord and He shall wage war in your behalf. Do not be as concerned with the movements of the enemy as much as you are overtaken and overwhelmed by the Lord, your God, mighty in battle and strong on your behalf. Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness for this is your main weapon of warfare in the coming days. As pure worship in spirit and truth goes forth, many shall be drawn into places that God is setting aside in this area because the presence of the Lord shall be as a magnet. Worship, worship, worship! Go forth from this position of intimacy!

A PROPHETIC WORD FOR FRANCE; THE ANOINTING OF JOHN
Rick Joyner, Switzerland, 1997
“I believe a few years ago, the Lord showed me that the next great, watershed move of God was
going to come through the French speaking people. The Lord has uniquely called different
nations for different purposes, and has given them different gifts. Each one reflects His glory in
a different way. Every one of the apostles that the Lord called was very different from the
other. Every prophet in the scriptures was unique. They each had a different piece of the
puzzle.
I stumbled upon a phrase one time in a church history book, then I kept seeing it over &
over in other history books, that referred to the apostles Peter, Paul & John as the three
pillars of the church. All of these three were very different from one another, but they all
had a very significant part in laying the foundation of the church. I believe that all the
apostles had a part, along with all the prophets, in laying the foundations of the church. But
these three are repeatedly referred to as pillars of the church. They certainly seem to have
the most significant part in laying the foundation of the church.
Then I started thinking about these three in relation to church history. I believe that we can
see, using these three characters, a very unique pattern for interpreting church history. If we
look at the nature of Peter, he was very impetuous and unstable. He was prone to
breath-taking victories and heart-rending mistakes. If you look at church history, we see
Peter probably having the greatest influence in the very beginning. For over 1000 years, the
emphasis was on Peter and his ministry. Those in leadership in the church claimed to be
seated on the seat of Peter. The church of that period seemed very much to have the nature
of Peter. Extra-ordinary victories and advances for the gospel were followed by some
extraordinary mistakes. But the Lord used that church as much as he could.
Then we have the beginning of the reformation. The reformation began with a rediscovery
of the epistles of Paul; a rediscovery of the epistle to the Romans. Since then, for over 500
years, most of the emphasis of the church has been the epistles of Paul. We have definitely
needed that emphasis again in the church.
But John had the last word. I believe that we are going to come to a final phase of church
history where we see the emphasis of John becoming the main emphasis of the church. It
doesn’t mean that we forget Peter and Paul. But I believe we are going to see ascending
again to the fore-front John’s message, that we should love the Lord and love one another.
In a sense you could see the three of them representing the way, the truth and the life. We
need to understand the way. We need an absolute devotion to truth. But if we don’t know
Jesus as our Life, we don’t really know the way or the truth either. We need all three
together, but I believe that a great emphasis is coming upon the last of these (seeing Jesus as
our Life).
It seems very fitting that when the Lord called John, he was mending nets. Just as we see
the gospel of John tying the other gospels together, and the epistles of John tying the new
testament together, the book of Revelation that he wrote ties the entire scriptures together
and finishes them off. I believe that his ministry and his message is just going to tie
everything together, so that the harvest, which is the end of the age, can finally be gathered.
John was the one who leaned his head on the Lord’s breast. He could hear the heart-beat of
God leaning on His breast. It is one thing to have the mind of Christ, but we must also
have His heart. It’s not a matter of just doing the right things. If we have His heart, we
will do them for the right reasons. He requires truth in the innermost being. It is not just
by believing in our minds that we find righteousness, but by believing in our heart.
When I first went to France, I tried to study France as much as I could. It looked to me like
there had been a resistance to moves of God throughout the French history, or a resistance
to new moves of God, resistance to things that were different or unique. And yet the Lord 58
showed me that the French were going to lead in the last day move of God. I started to
understand right away how this could happen. When you go to France, it seems that the
whole culture is based around relationship. They sit at meals for hours and hours. The
wine flows. But everything is based around relationships. And I began to understand how
the message of John alone, based on relationships - loving the Lord and loving each other, -
could reach the French people. I could also see that when some of the reformations truths
are preached there, the French people would say, “So what ?” because they didn’t see lives
that reflected that truth”.
