God’s sovereignty and power over the world. It is a prophecy that God speaks to Cyrus, the king of Persia, whom God calls his anointed and uses to subdue nations and kings. God says that he is the only true God and that he controls everything, including light and darkness, peace and evil. God’s purpose is to make himself known to all people, from the East to the West. No good thing will God withhold from those who walk uprightly. God guides all His children into all righteous priosperity that He planned for us spiritually, and physically and gives us a generous spirit of freedom with Him.
It reads in Isaiah 45:1-7 KJV>
Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will lose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
