The Plan of God

… I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning … saying,
“My purpose will be established.” (Isa 46:9-10)
The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation. (Psa 33:11)
Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but the counsel of the Lord, it will stand. (Pro 19:21)
The Lord of hosts has sworn saying, “Surely, just as I have intended so it has happened,
and just as I have planned so it will stand.” (Isa 14:24)
The grass withers, the flower fades, but the Word of our God stands forever. (Isa 40:8)
… For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, “My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure” … Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass. I have planned it, surely I will do it. (Isa 46:9-11)
This Man, delivered up by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God,
you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death. (Act 2:23)
“And so in the present case, I say to you, stay away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or action
should be of men, it will be overthrown; but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them;
or else you may even be found fighting against God.” (Act 5:38-39)
He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him with a view
to an administration suitable to the fulness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ,
things in the heavens and things upon the earth. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, having been
predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will. (Eph 1:9-11)
