So, Kacy and I were talking last night about God's plans and she said, well, God can change His plans though, like in Exodus when He got so fed up with the Israelites that he threatened to kill them all and Moses intervened.
Which got me thinking on this question: Does God change His mind? Does He change His plans?
And the answer is No, absolutely not.
He is not man that he should lie. He ALWAYS keeps His promises. Before we were born, he had already written out our entire lives.
The situation with Moses, I think, was that...
(March 29, 2008)
Because God is all and knows all--past, present, and future--he knew the man of faith that Moses was, he knew that Moses also had a relationship with him and that he would actively question God's promise, reminding him that His name was at sake, and whether the people of Israel deserved it, God had made a promise and for the glory of God's name, He would lead them into the promised land.
Of course, the Israelites weren't let off the hook completely, but at the same time, they did enter the promised land, just as the Lord promised (hence the "promised" in "promised land")...
Because "the Lord’s plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken." -Psalm 33:11-
