God's Servant Cyrus

March 26, 2022

Cyrus prepared the way for the worldwide proclamation of the gospel. God has His plan and He is carryihg it out. Jesus came just as the prophets said He would. He came to His temple and filled it with His glory, the temple that Cyrus gave orders to build. God has worked throughout history to carry out His plan and He is still working today. The gospel is going out to the nations just as Isaiah prophesied so long ago. Today the gospel is coming to you. You have the privilege to hear that Jesus came and He went to the cross to die for your sins. He invites you right now to come and accept Him as Lord and Master of your life and to trust Him for your salvation.

God raised up His Anointed One. Cyrus was a Gentile king in world history. He is not only mentioned here in the Bible but in secular history as well. God used this great king to carry out the deliverance of his people. Today, we have a King who is greater than Cyrus. He is also the Anointed One. He also delivers His people with salvation.

We see in the New Testament that the New Covenant had come and the writers of the New Testament refer back to Jeremiah 31 explaining that that New Covenant had now come through the gospel. In the final section of Jeremiah 31, we see God continuing his promise of future blessing to His people. This promise goes beyond the first coming of Christ on into the future. This prophecy is a promise of an enduring people of God.

The Israelites were being taken into captivity to Babylon because of their sins. God was bringing judgment upon them and their nation. Yet, in the midst of His judgment God offers them hope. God promises them that they will one day return and prepare for the coming of the Messiah. He reinforces His promise as He promises a New Covenant.

The Lord promises that the Jewish people will return to their homeland to prepare for the coming of the Messiah. All was not lost. There was hope for the Jewish people. They would return to their own land. There they would await the coming of the Messiah.

Israel would return to their own land. Though now they were being taken into captivity to Babylon, a time would come when they would return. There is great hope here for Israel. God will not forsake His people. He had a plan and He would carry out that plan.

God has a plan for His people. Let us be comforted and encouraged about the future of God's people. Let us realize that God has a plan for His people and that He is carrying out that plan in history.

We are called to go up to Zion, to the Lord our God. The Lord calls us in the gospel to come to Him and be His people. Today, the call is going out to the nations to come to Zion to come to the Lord God and know Him.

We are living in an age where sexual immorality in all its forms pervades the nation. We are a sex craved society it seems. Our forefathers would be shocked at today's society. Things that were considered sinful and bad for a society are now embraced and honored. We take pride in what was once considered wrong. Good has become bad and bad has become good. God is there and He is not silent. His warning judgments are falling on the nation and we are not listening. There have been sex crazed societies before who went there on way and God made an example out of them to warn us today.

The Jewish nation paid a price for hindering the gospel in their day. Our nation if it continues to seek to repress Christians and Christianity will certainly pay a price. Yet our prayer is that such repression will stop and that the gospel will flourish in this land as it has in the past.

America is full of sin from the highest to the lowest. Only the powerful preaching of the Word of God will bring repentance to our land. It will be only when America fears God again that we will see a great change. When that happens, God's glory will be revealed in our land as the Psalmist says in Psalm 85:9 - "Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that his glory may dwell in our land." Will we ever see His glory in our land again as it was in the days of the First Great Awakening and the Second Great Awakeing in the 18th and 19th centuries? Only time will tell but we can pray that it will happen again.
