God’s will is established and unchangeable; He fulfills His purposes without fail, as evidenced by His declarations throughout Scripture.
God’s sovereignty is a fundamental doctrine of historic Reformed theology, emphasizing that His will is the ultimate authority over all things. Throughout Scripture, God declares His purposes, such as in Isaiah 14, where He states, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.' This refers to His ability to bring His plans to completion without frustration or hindrance. God's will encompasses every aspect of salvation, ensuring that it is His divine decree that leads the elect to eternal life. The assurance lies in the fact that there is never a moment in history when God’s will fails, proving He is sovereign and in control.
