“Nation who loves righteousness, watch as I renew your youth and rescue you from the jaws of despair! I have relished your vigor, your athleticism and your zealous pursuit of my heart. My German Bride, you have been unwilling to compromise. You have maintained my righteous standards even when others have mocked you. Your willingness to sacrifice for my sake has given you a reputation in Heaven as “Those who overcome”.
Today, I am coming to remove layers of shame from your past so I can restore your right shape. I am coming to remove generational sin from witchcraft that has capped your influence within Europe. I am coming to put salve on wounds from a tradition that has kept you from receiving full freedom in your emotions. At the national and individual level, instead of defending your own “High Walled Kingdom”, you will use your vigor to welcome others in.
In a time of shaking in the early 20th century, I humbled all the world’s powers through two world wars. I invited the nations to know me as their safe stronghold, releasing a new vision for the Kingdom of God. Those days were full of shaking. Germany, I longed to take you under my wings of protection and be your provider.
Yet many of the nations were afraid to draw close to me. They were afraid to know me as Father, and they did not trust that I would shelter them. In fear of abandonment, these nations became afraid. In fear of scarcity, they resorted to robbing their most vulnerable, ethnic-minority citizens. When they felt exposed and vulnerable, their fear made others vulnerable too, removing every human hedge of protection.
Today Germany, I tell you that during those days, the enemy sent a witchcraft strategy to undermine the move of God I wanted to send among immigrants and ethnic minorities. He convinced you to trust in your own strength rather than expand the Kingdom of God. Through nationalism and economic deprivation, he fomented your fear and suspicion of the foreigner.
In the crushing weight of fear and rejection, you felt paralyzed. Soon, your vulnerable citizens felt a deeper, demonic paralysis. The violence stirred up against them felt like inevitable drowning. Some people felt their bodies autonomously walking off a pier, and into dark waters. Others sat frozen in place as the water rose over their necks, unable to move. They were unsure why they let themselves die. Or why onlookers did nothing.
At a time when society at large rejected me, I raised Christians who were committed to being a refuge for diverse, vulnerable people. They risked their lives in order to model the Kingdom of God that knows no ethnic or national borders. When they could not speak, they became like mountains, silently hiding people in the cleft of the rock.
Germany, you face another day of national shaking, but this time you will stand! On this day of shaking, you will build on the foundation of those heroes of faith who knew me as the God of All Safety. Already, I have raised up leaders in your nation who have poured out their lives in exchange for intimacy with me, who dwell under the protection of my wings. German Christian leaders, the Great Cloud of Witnesses who risked their lives to shelter the vulnerable during WW2 are proud of you. You will build on their legacy of fearsome love for the vulnerable. Already, I am expanding the grace I gave them to know me as a refuge. In response to your love of intimacy with me, today I am giving you a double portion of protection. In this time of shaking, you will find shelter not just for ethnic minorities, but for ethnic Germans who have yet to know me as Refuge. I will cause you to dwell together in the security of my mountain. Even as the other nations feel tempted to fear, you will be unafraid. You will become immovable as you worship me, safely hidden together in solidarity in the cleft of the rock. When others feel afraid due to economic or social conditions, they will look to you and find strength.
German Christian leaders, I am giving you the grace to publicly model what trusting me for your provision looks like. I am giving you the grace to dismantle the “High Walled Kingdom” and usher in the Kingdom of God, with room for the ethnic minority, the vulnerable, and the refugee! I have set the stage to redeem your past partnerships with witchcraft, and you will glorify me by how you support one another. You will be a light for Europe to demonstrate what radical acceptance of the vulnerable looks like.
I am releasing hospitality evangelism to your leaders that will cause the nations to know that I am God Your Refuge. I am releasing building plans for churches and prayer groups, to receive new immigrants and pursue partnership with current immigrants. As you share the generosity of God the Father with individuals ensnared by scarcity, I will resource you in a time of shaking. Through these organizations, I will release personal prophetic words to the starving and they will release they need not just bread, but the Bread of Life. Entire families will know me as the Living God, pursuing and clinging to the words of my servant Jesus. I will remove your shame and fear of speaking by giving you words so full of life that as they pass through your mouth, they will energize and restore your deep, hidden places. As you speak these words of life, German Christians, your nation will become a Living Womb. Within Europe, your kindness will cause many to inherit a victor’s crown, and you will be known as a Mothering nation.
