What does the Bible say about God's purpose standing?

Answered in 1 source

God's purpose is unchanging and unstoppable, supported by verses like Isaiah 14:24.

The Bible clearly teaches that God's purpose shall stand, as expressed in Isaiah 14:24: 'The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass.' This highlights the intrinsic power of God's thoughts which are equivalent to His actions; when God purposes something, it is as good as done. His thoughts toward His people are saving thoughts, designed to bring His elect to eternal glory. As Psalm 33 emphasizes, 'The counsel of the Lord standeth forever,' reassuring believers that no matter the turmoil in the world, God's plan remains steadfast and will be accomplished.
