This verse makes me stand in awe of the faithfulness of God to His word and His sovereign power that He exerts over, on, in and through the lives of men to bring about His purposes. He works in us to WILL and to DO of His good pleasure. Phil. 2:13
The Lord stirred Cyrus to make a proclamation throughout his kingdom. Why do I WILL what I WILL?
In this verse I see a plan with a Sovereign hand behind it!

Ezra 1:1
