"I am the Lord, and I do not change...." Malachi 3:6a (NLT)We all realize that we live in a world of constant change. EVERYTHING changes- everything that we can see... touch... even imagine... it all will at some point change. Even we change... both externally and internally we are continuously changing.... our bodies... our minds.... our relationships....
But what assurance we should all have, knowing that our God will NEVER change! His character.... His love- grace... mercy... goodness towards us.... His WORD.... He will never change.
Because God is unchanging we can trust.... hope.... rest in Him.... knowing that we stand on firm ground with a future that is secure and ETERNAL!
GOD'S CHARACTER DOES NOT CHANGE:
God is not a man, so He does not lie. He is not human, so He does not change His mind. Has He ever spoken and failed to act? Has He ever promised and not carried it through?
Numbers 23: 19 (NLT)
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Hebrews 13:8 (NLT)
GOD'S LOVE DOES NOT CHANGE:
The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning.
Lamentations 3:22-23 (NLT)
But the love of the Lord remains forever with those who fear Him.
Psalm 103:17 (NLT)
GOD'S WORD DOES NOT CHANGE:
It is the same with My word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.
Isaiah 55:11 (NLT)
"Heaven and earth will disappear, but My words will never disappear."
Luke 21:33 (NLT)
So no matter how things may be changing around us.... we have "blessed assurance" of a life that is secure in the arm of an unchanging God!!!!!
