Finding Your Cyrus

DAY 3 OF 4

We are building a kingdom, and resources will come from uncommon places and uncommon people. For every kingdom that wants to expand, there is a healthy plan of foreign relations between other countries. They may not stand for all of the values of the other country, but that particular kingdom recognizes that someway, somehow, the other countries have resources that may be lacking within the kingdom. Therefore, a relationship is established.

Israel and Egypt have historically been at odds during the time of Bible history. The scripture recounts a time where King David went to war, and upon returning home from battle, he found that the women and children were kidnapped, and the city was in shambles. It took the assistance of an abandoned and ailing Egyptian slave boy to help him recover what he had lost due to a valuable piece of information concerning the location of the kidnapped family members.

Your Cyrus is not only one that you look to for handouts, but your Cyrus is also someone to partner with. Your Cyrus not only has resources, but information as well. Do not limit yourself to only the demographic that you are familiar with, but do your part in expanding the kingdom by partnering and trading with your Cyrus. If you are praying for kingdom expansion, then get ready to do what is uncomfortable. There are Cyruses who are willing to help, and they are ANOINTED OF GOD, but you have to partner with them. You prayed for a peculiar anointing to fall. God answered. The anointing came. You expected it to come on you, but it came on your Cyrus. Now go and tap into it. Your prayer has been answered already.

It is to your benefit to connect with these people. It is to the benefit of the Kingdom of God for every citizen to do their due diligence to bring expansion. Where there is intent, there is action. If you did an event this year, that means that before the next year comes, you would have made connections to gain new ideas and helpers in order to build off the last success. Failure to connect with your Cyruses means that the church remains stagnant. The resources are there, but for every person who you look down upon, there is a Cyrus in them. Tap into those power sources!

About this Plan

Finding Your Cyrus

The Lord is calling His people to an era of exploits. He is redeeming the time, and we need to partner with people to accomplish the Kingdom mandate. This devotional highlights the example of King Cyrus, and gives us present day life applications to break out of self-imposed mental and social limitations for a more effective life of ministry.
