As South Africans we have
inherited a rich Christian heritage due to the
faithful perseverance of especially our French Huguenot ancestors that
came to
South Africa almost 300 years ago.
Today the country of France
displays a severe lack in spiritual life and
truth. Most of her inhabitants are non-religious, atheistic and lost.
(Less
than 0,8% of the French population are born-again Christians. The
Muslims make
out 7,7% of the population).
France once violently
rejected the revival fire of God that came through
the Huguenots in the 16th and 17th centuries.
Due to
their unwillingness to embrace the work of God’s Spirit, most of
the nations of
the world (including the USA, Canada, England, Netherlands, Germany,
and South
Africa) were blessed by the spiritually rich Huguenot exiles.
We are in a time that God
is calling the French back to Him as He
desires to see France fulfil her end time kingdom purposes. France is a
key
nation in the European Union and historically has had a global
influence.
It is time for us as French
descendants and those that benefited from
their spiritual heritage to invest back into our roots so that Gods
salvation
can once again invade France and Europe as a whole.
God sent a small group of
Huguenots (approx. 300) to the Southern tip of
Africa. This group made out one sixth of the European population in the
Cape at
the end of the 16th century and has had a profound influence
and
contribution on South African history. Their impact was felt in
spiritual,
economical, agricultural, political and scientific spheres.
We believe God’s
purpose with bringing this group of Huguenots to Africa
was to save a remnant that could later go back and possess their godly
inheritance.
We have a responsibility
towards our bloodlines and being French
descendants places us in a unique position where we have the positional
authority to work and pray for the French people and nation.
The planting of God in
France was destroyed and though the root has
grown old in the ground, by the Spirit ability of God we are able to
bring it
back to life.
Job 14:7-9
7 “For
there is hope for a
tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender
shoots
will not cease. 8 Though its root may grow old in the
earth, And its
stump may die in the ground, 9 Yet
at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches
like a plant.
We believe that the
Huguenots are a New Testament picture of the Jews,
and that the seed of the Huguenots need to return to France in order to
possess
their godly inheritance that is rooted in France.
Rom
11:12
(AMP)
"Now if their stumbling (their lapse, their transgression) has so
enriched
the world [at large]
and
if [France’s] failure means
such riches for the gentiles. Think what enrichment
and
greater advantage will follow
their reinstatement!"
