F.B. Meyer emphasizes that the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus to fulfill the prophecy of the return of the Jewish captives from Babylon, as foretold by Jeremiah and Isaiah. He highlights the importance of prayer, as exemplified by Daniel, in influencing leaders and initiating divine movements. Meyer notes that while God can stir hearts, obedience is essential, and sadly, only a few of the Jewish captives responded to the call to return. He encourages believers to rise up and act whenever they feel a divine stirring in their lives. Ultimately, the sermon calls for faith and responsiveness to God's leading.

Bakht Singh delivers a powerful sermon on the reign of King Asa, emphasizing the importance of obedience, faithfulness, and complete trust in God. Asa's story serves as a solemn warning for all believers today, highlighting the reality of spiritual attacks as we grow closer to God and serve Him. The victory over enemies and trials comes through honoring God's Word, seeking His guidance, and being willing to take a stand against sin, even within our own families. However, any compromise in obedience, no matter how small, can lead to downfall and the loss of God's promises, as seen in Asa's life.

James Smith preaches on the profound impact of the word 'NEVERTHELESS' in conveying comfort, encouragement, and strength from God's Word. Through various passages, he highlights how 'NEVERTHELESS' signifies God's recognition of sincerity, His faithfulness in times of distress, His unchanging love despite our imperfections, and His promise to preserve us until the end. Smith emphasizes the importance of obedience to God's word, even in times of discouragement or apparent fruitless labor, as it leads to extraordinary success. He also draws attention to the assurance of God's unshakable foundation, the hope of new heavens and a new earth, and the peaceable fruit of righteousness through trials.
