God is not like humans who can be fickle, changeable, irresponsible, and unpredictable. There are no discrepancies or inconsistencies in God. His promises endure forever.
Hebrews 6:17-18 says, “In the same way, when God desired to show even more clearly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of His purpose, He guaranteed it by an oath, so that through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible that God would prove false, we who have taken refuge might be strongly encouraged to seize the hope that is set before us.”
I don’t know about you, but it overjoys me to read the above passage of text because I am reminded that God’s nature is immutable. He embodies all truth and He cannot lie nor fail. For this reason, we can always be sure of His promises. He never waivers and He doesn’t change His mind. When we come to Him believing and asking He will do it! He promised He would reward the sincere and earnest seeker and He does.
Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that, “..it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to Him must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him.”
Fact is, although people may disappoint us—even people whom we love and admire—He will never fail us. Never! What He said He would do, He will do. In God there is no variation or shadow due to change. There are no discrepancies or inconsistencies in God.
My brothers and sisters, as I mentioned above humans can be fickle, changeable, irresponsible, and unpredictable, but God is exactly the opposite. He never changes or takes back His offer of grace, mercy, forgiveness, and salvation. God does not—cannot—renege on His promises. Our salvation does not depend on a fickle, changeable, irresponsible, and unpredictable God but one whose promises endure forever.
