The Sovereign Savior
Apr 6, 2025 • Alexey Kolomiytsev
In spite of the evil that rages in the world as a result of sin, God, who created the universe, continues to direct events in it. The story of King Cyrus, foretold by the prophet Isaiah more than 150 years before he ascended to the throne, is one of the clearest proofs of this. Speaking to Israel, God emphasizes - everything happens according to His plan, everything happens for His glory, everything happens to accomplish His purposes - the salvation of Israel and the salvation of the nations of the world through it. Humility before God and acceptance of His will is the most reasonable response. There is no point in opposing His plans or arguing with Him.
