THE LORD IS GOD

FAITH CAPSULE: In all your ways, know and consider that the Lord is God.

Ezra 1, Psalm 150

Moses spoke to the Israelites, “Therefore know this day, and consider it in your heart, that the Lord Himself is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other.” (Deuteronomy 4:39) 
What he said to the Israelites speaks to all. 
How often do you consider the wonders of God? 
Considering God will open your heart to think carefully about God and to reflect on His awesomeness. 
Considering God is to regard, believe, to pay attention with respect and honor to God. 
Considering God is to know that there is no other God but Him. 
He alone is the creator of all, in the position to take charge over all that revolves on earth and in heaven.
Proverbs 21:1-2 buttresses the awesomeness of God, “The King’s heart is the hand of the Lord, like rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.” 
Cyrus, king of Persia, had no choice but to move by what God set for his life. 
The heart of Cyrus during the first year of his reign “… made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying, thus says Cyrus king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth the LORD God of heaven has given me. And He has commanded me to build Him a house at Jerusalem which is in Judah. Who is among you of all His people? May his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the LORD God of Israel (He is God), which is in Jerusalem. And whoever is left in any place where he dwells, let the men of his place help him with silver and gold, with goods and livestock, besides the freewill offerings for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.” (Ezra 1:1-4) 
God, through Cyrus, king of Persia, opened a door for the children of Israel to come out of captivity and rebuild the temple. 
Who can probe the limits of the Almighty? 
There is no heart of man beyond the hand of God to activate such for breakthrough or deliverance through the representative of Cyrus of life. Consider it that God alone stirred the heart of man to favor another.
Consider how it was time for the children of Israel to return to their homeland from the captivity of seventy years. 
God used Cyrus, an unbeliever, to accomplish His purpose. 
Cyrus, King of Persia, could not avoid the stir of his heart from the hand of God.
God is the uncreated creator, the unlimited that no man can limit His hand. 
In all your ways, consider God to establish your connection with Him.

Prayer for today: Ask God to stir up every representative of Cyrus to deliver your favorable breakthrough to the glory of God.
