A Man Summoned To Serve As An Instrument of God

Isaiah 45:1-6

1  Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; 
2  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: 
3  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. 
4  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. 
5  I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 
6  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.
