"Unalterable"

"Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:" (Hebrews 6:17 KJV)

"But when the right time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, subject to the law. God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slaves to the law, so that he could adopt us as his very own children. And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, "Abba, Father." Now you are no longer a slave but God's own child. And since you are his child, God has made you his heir." (Galatians 4:4-7 NLT)

 There was more I thought I should share about yesterday's post, but I felt God wanted me to move on and make this a confirmation of what I ended with yesterday; just in case there were some doubters. From the very beginning of my New Life in Christ, I have learned to understand that God does not change His mind. It has always been my understanding that God knows all things, especially the things that involve our lives. 

 When I first started this journey, (this Blog,) I shared about God's will, verses His perfect will; without really knowing exactly what it actually meant, as if God has two different paths to choose from. To be perfectly straight with you, I have changed my mind and have decided that He does not change His! 

 The example that I shared with, over 15 years ago, was the case of God's actions with King Hezekiah's sickness and recovery. As you might have already known, Hezekiah was told to get his house in order because his sickness was going to kill him. So he turned his face to the wall and wept; telling God that he didn't deserve to die, because he had been faithful and did so many things to get the people to follow Him. 

 Then we see that God sent Isaiah back to tell Hezekiah that he would be healed and have 15 more years to live. Which makes things look as if God had changed His mind, deciding, "What the heck, I guess I'll let him live a little longer!" Does anyone think that is what God was thinking, knowing all the evil, the wickedness, and the bondage that would take place from Hezekiah's 15 more years of life? Not if you know and believe that God does not learn! 

 God doesn't save you, and then turn around and say, "I made a mistake with that one!" He knows all the things you do and will ever do! That has been my understanding from the very beginning, knowing that He loves me and has made me His child; and once I was made His, I am His for eternity. The real truth that I believe we will all see, is that we always were His, ever since the beginning...

""I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one - as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And they are in us so that the world will believe you sent me."" (John 17:20-21 NLT)
