The Bible teaches that God's decrees are His eternal plans and purposes which govern all events in the universe.
God’s decrees, as revealed in Scripture, signify His eternal purpose through which He orchestrates all events throughout creation. Ephesians 1:3-7 illustrates that God has blessed us in Christ, according to the riches of His grace, giving us a clear understanding of His sovereign will. Isaiah 46:9-10 emphasizes that God alone can declare the end from the beginning, assuring us that nothing happens outside of His decree. Therefore, His decrees reflect His wisdom, control, and sovereign power over history and individual lives.
