How do we know that God's will is always accomplished?
Answered in 1 source
Scripture testifies that all things happen according to God's will and purpose, as stated in Ephesians 1:11.
The assurance that God's will is always accomplished is rooted firmly in scripture. Ephesians 1:11 declares that God 'works all things after the counsel of His own will.' This means that every event, whether good or evil, falls under God's supreme authority. For instance, the betrayal of Judas, though an act of wickedness, was part of God's predetermined plan, fulfilling prophecy and achieving the redemption of His people (Acts 1:16, Matthew 27:9). Through various biblical examples, we see God's sovereignty in action, wherein even the actions of sinful individuals serve His ultimate purpose. This underscores a profound truth: nothing can frustrate God's plans; His decrees are unalterable and designed to bring glory to Himself and salvation to His chosen ones.
