Ezra1:1-11, Jer.1:1-5

 

When the end of the Babylonian captivity was at hand, God stirred the spirit of a king in < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Persia. When the end of all thatÕs been holding you captive is at hand, only God will move on your behalf. There is nothing any man or government can do on the face of the earth to help or delay the end of captivity in your life. He said to Jeremiah in Jer.1:5, Òbefore I formed you in the womb I knew you: before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.Ó You choose to runÉit is your choice. Go ahead and run; you will never pass GodÕs timing for your life. King Cyrus, whose name means fairness, was stirred in the spirit to put in place the freedom of the children of Israel from captivity. Ezra1:1 the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and also put in writing, saying: LORD God of heaven has given him and commanded him to build Him a house in Jerusalem. ItÕs amazing how God works. He can move your enemy to bring forth your blessing. His understanding is unreachable. Every area of captivity in your life — spiritually, maritally, and financially — God will stir the spirit of him that will bring forth your breakthrough, if you believe in Jesus name. The same God that was, is still, and He will always be.
