The bottom line is God doesn’t change… nothing about him ever changes. You can almost count on man to change on a moments notice, but God never changes.
He is UNCHANGING in His Character
“But Thou art the same, and Thy years will not come to an end.” –Psalm 102:27
“The loving-kindness of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting…” –Psalm 103:17
“Every good thing bestowed and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation, or shifting shadow.” –James 1:17
“Every good thing bestowed and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation, or shifting shadow.” –James 1:17
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?” Num. 23:19
He is UNCHANGING in His Word
"Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.” –Matthew 24:35
“All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.” –Psalm 119:160
“All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.” –Psalm 119:160
“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever." –Isaiah 40:8
"It is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.” –Luke 16:17
Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven.” –Psalm 119:89
"For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.” –Matthew 5:18
The world changes...
circumstances change, we change...
but God's Word never changes.
He is UNCHANGING in His Plans
“The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation.” –Psalm 33:11
"For the LORD of hosts has planned, and who can frustrate it? And as for His stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?" –Isaiah 14:27
God would never give you the gift of salvation without giving you the assurance that it is yours."
-Charles Stanley
Is there anything about God that ever changes?
God does not change.
His character never changes.
Who He is never changes.
His plans do not change.
His promises do not change.
His salvation never changes.
His Word does not change.
He never gets “better” or “worse.”
He is the same, today, tomorrow, forever.
His attributes are the same from before the beginning of time into eternity.
In these our days so perilous,
Lord, peace in mercy send us;
No God but Thee can fight for us,
No God but Thee defend us;
Thou our only God and Saviour.
-Martin Luther
