Nathan French: Where Are the Surrendered Ones?

 

(Editor's note: This word was given to Nathan French on January 4, 2025 at 3:48 a.m.)

A Word from the Lord in the Night

"This is what is happening in the world. There are people all around who are wondering when the end will happen, but I say, every day is a new beginning. This is the first day of the rest of your life!

"Not being able to sleep is something I can cause to draw you in, for I love to connect with you in the middle of the night. I am shaking loose the strongholds of the enemy all over the world, for I am exposing idolatry in the hearts of My people. Those who have other lovers cannot love Me—heart, soul, mind, and body."

"Jesus said to him, 'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'" (Matthew 22:37 NKJV)

Dealing With Issues of the Heart

"I test hearts on purpose to expose what needs to become pure. When people are gripped with idols and still call Me Lord, I must deal with what separates and divides their allegiance. This is an hour of great victory for those who are faithful to love Me with their whole heart, soul, mind, body, and strength. Many say they love Me, but when I ask them to give something away and they don't, the idol's grip is exposed. When the person will not obey, it reveals a heart of rebellion."

"For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you from being king." (1 Samuel 15:23 NKJV)

"When My people delay, it grieves My Spirit. Bind and break off all forms of rebellion from your hearts."

"Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on Earth will be bound in Heaven, and whatever you loose on Earth will be loosed in Heaven." (Matthew 18:18 NKJV)

"Come out of agreement with all forms of witchcraft, My beloved people. Repent for allowing idolatry into your hearts. This is one of the main reasons that I am displeased. My people, who are called by My name, need to humble themselves and pray, seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways." (Photo via Unsplash)

"If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV)

"I hear, and I heal. I want to heal the land. Hearts that love Me obey Me. Looking for a reason to not obey, in order to protect an idol, is from the evil one.

Embrace Freedom: Every Yoke Shall Break

Question: What then shall I do, Lord?

"Teach this concept and help the masses to understand that every heart was made to be free—free to love, free to shine, and free to see. I am ready to lift man's burdens. I am ready to break their yokes."

"Is this not the fast that I have chosen: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?" (Isaiah 58:6 NKJV)

"I am willing to bring freedom and life more abundantly to all who call on My name. Stubborn pride must be broken. Prayer and fasting must take place, but nothing replaces the need for love. Love is shown in what it does. Obedience is shown in what it does. Truth is shown by agreeing with the truth, then walking in that truth. Telling the truth comes from walking with Me, who is the Truth."

"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.'" (John 14:6 NKJV)

Come Into Agreement with Me

"Be in agreement with Me. Many will say, 'Lord, Lord!' And I will say, 'I never knew you. Depart from Me, you workers of iniquity.'"

"Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'" (Matthew 7:22–23 NKJV) (Photo via PickPik)

"Why? Because some only give Me part of their hearts. I want all of you, My people! Why do you hold back from Me, the Lord your God? Would I not give you all things? I know you hear Me. Start now, and do what I have asked! Stop letting rebellion rule your hearts.

"Those who are quick to respond to Me, the Almighty, will receive a different kind of reward. Wanting to obey shows a willing heart that is surrendered. Not wanting to obey shows that deception has set up a place in a heart that does not believe My plans are good. This is what I am dealing with on the earth—the frustration of a lack of surrender. My sheep hear Me and obey Me."

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." (John 10:27 NKJV)

"This is what proves they are actually Mine. I know if My people fear Me out of reverence, because they do what I say."

Wisdom Fears the Lord

"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction." (Proverbs 1:7 NKJV)

"When My people fear Me, it shows they have wisdom beginning to grow. I can mature anyone who desires to grow in wisdom. Not everyone shows wisdom by their actions. Empty words are used to create illusions of good intent.

"I will attack greed in hearts; I will attack pride and witchcraft; I will attack stubbornness; I will attack the selfishness and idolatry that tries to build around the hearts of My people. Not one stone will go unturned, for I am building My people in character so they can reflect Me, instead of this wayward world whose thinking is wrong. (Photo via Pexels)

"They say they love Me but show they do not. They say they want Me and My Kingdom to come, but in their hearts they want to be their own king. They want to become their own source—independent instead of dependent on Me, self-reliant instead of surrendered.

"This nation was not built on abominations! So, I am setting up My Kingdom reign on Earth as it is in Heaven."

"Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven." (Matthew 6:10 NKJV)

Where Are the Surrendered Ones?

"Who are My people? Where are the surrendered ones who see the value of yielding to My voice and will? Those who do not just talk; those who say what they are going to do and do it; those who refuse to be double-minded and unstable?"

"But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways." (James 1:6–8 NKJV)

"Strong leaders communicate by sharing their heart and feelings. Yes, it is a risk, but worth the reward when done the right way. If you love someone, tell them; but remember, love is a choice—not a feeling! Love is shown by actions, not empty words. Do you love Me?"
