BRAGADAYJAH 1145

Second world Empire – Media Persia

Most people would be aware of the story of Daniel and King Nebuchadnezzar and his dream, how the king had a dream he could not remember and how Daniel, who was a prince from Judah, was carried away to Babylon and how luckily for the king, and all the phony wise men about him, Daniel was on hand to not only tell the King his dream, but also the interpretation of it.  By that interpretation the Medio Persian Empire was foretold to be the second World Empire featured in the dream, the empire of the Medes and the Persians now under Cyrus. So now Cyrus prompted by God gave decree for the building of God’s house in Jerusalem which was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar some seventy years earlier.  The amazing thing is, Cyrus was clearly not a creature in being at the time, except as the narrative clearly shows, in the mind of God, who inspired his Prophet Isaiah to write as follows:  Thus saith of Cyrus he is my shepherd and shall perform all my pleasure even saying to Jerusalem thou shalt be built and to the temple the foundation shall be laid  (44:28)   Thus sayeth 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.” (Isaiah 45 I)  Surely we know that as of old, the word of the Lord God Almighty never returns void, as every purpose, every word of prophesy is fulfilled in its time, however long it takes.
