It is Impossible for God to Lie and take back what He Covenanted promised!
There is one impossibility for Almighty God which He cannot do and will not choose to do, and that is to take back His only begotten Son and take Him away from His children to leave them forsakened!
Nonetheless, with great reverence, such impossibility for God still preserves the nature of God's omnipotence, for God can never deny Himself and go against His nature of truth, justice, Holiness and faithfulness, who alone keeps His covenant and His promise to His Son and Holy Spirit on behalf of His Church!
For Moses in Numbers 23:19 says, "God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
And the Apostle Paul in Titus 1:2-3 also declares the impossible nature of God to lie, when he says, "in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago, 3but at the proper time manifested, even His word, in the proclamation with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,…"
And in Hebrews, the Apostle declares the two unchangeable facts concerning the nature of God that His purpose to the Heir of His promise is unchangeable and it is impossible for God to lie when he writes in Hebrews 6:17-19, " In the same way God, desiring even more to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of His purpose, interposed with an oath, 18so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. 19This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil,…"
And again, the Apostle Paul encourages Timothy on grace and perserverence by exhorting Timothy of God's faithfulness to His nature that God cannot deny Himself, when He says to Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:13, "If we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He also will deny us; 13If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself."
While it is true we live in a sin cursed world, and for the most part, being born in this world does not come without infirmities, sickness and even death, for the last enemy is death and it still has its power over our frail human bodies. There are times in life that the body is healthy and without sickness, times of enjoying abundance of the things in this world, times of having every need met(but we must hold on to those things loosely), for they just do not last and in a moments notice they can be all gone by some unforeseen occurrence of natural disaster, violence and accidents beyond our limited finite ability and control. When such unforeseen occurrences knock on the door step, may the Lord grant the Grace to worship God, like Job did, when he said in Job 1:21:
"Naked I came from my mother's womb, And naked I shall return there. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD." 22Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God."
In such circumstances, the Lord is Sovereign and determines and allows all occurrences to accomplish His will and purpose; therefore, if the Lord plans and wills to give or take away, according to the good pleasure of His determined will and plan, then He can and will allow afflictions to occur, for the expressed purpose to declare the Blessed nature of Almighty God, that naked a person is born in this world and nakedness is required to fall helpless before the Lord of glory in order to be clothed by Him in the righteousness of the blood of His Son. And until that final day, when the last enemy of death is dealt with, naked shall we go to the grave unable to carry bank accounts, cars, houses, wealth, prestige and status with us to the grave, for death is a sure thing in this sin cursed world and claims us all!
Notwithstanding, the truth of deaths claim, there is also another blessed true and a sure thing in life, and that is the blessing's of the Lord to give life, not only physical life but Spiritual life; for it is the Lord who makes alive, it is the blessing of the Lord that quickens and regenerates a spiritually dead soul back to life, in the washing of regeneration of new birth of the Holy Spirit in His only Begotten Son through Jesus' Death and Resurrection, this is a sure gift of God and He will never add any sorrow to such a blessing nor will He ever make dead again that which He has resurrected and made alive in new Birth of regeneration of the Holy Spirit, as in Proverbs 10:22 says,
"It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it."
And in Roman's, the Apostle Paul's declares that God the Father did not spare His only begotten Son, but delivered Him up for us all, what? Will He turn around and spare His Son and not deliver Him up for us all? May it never be, for God will never take back His Son once He gave Him up for us all, He will never give Him and then take Him away!
Romans 8:31-32:
31What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? 32He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?
According to Isaiah the Prophet, Since God has inscribed His people on the palm of His Hands, will He uninscribe them? May it never be! for He cannot deny Himself and uninscribe His people off the palms of His hands, as if God made a mistake and needed to erase that which He inscribed in His very being, He will not undo that which He has done and accomplished according to His will and plan, as if there was an altered paralleled will, plan and purpose, if the original plan and purpose did not work out;for it is Impossible for God's predetermined plan and purpose according to the eternal counsel of the good pleasure of His will to fail to establish another, for God is all powerful and Almighty to fulfill His eternal covenant plan and purpose in His Son on behalf of His people. Isaiah 49:16"Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; "
When Jesus appeared to Thomas and He said to Thomas, in John 20:27-28, "Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing." 28 Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!"…
Jesus cannot unscar His hands, feet and side, after He made payment in His own blood for the Redemption of my soul and Body once for all on the cross, He did not stop Himself from going to the cross but gave His body on the cross! He did not call 10000 legions of Angle's to come down and deliver Him from going to the cross and fight for Him, but He willingly and voluntarily gave Himself up as a ransom for many to obey the God the Father's will, He did not say, Ok, I will do your will, oh, no, I change my mind, I will not do your will, by He cried in fervent prayer, Father, not my will but thine be done!
Therefore, find great comfort and peace based on the unchangeable nature of God to fulfill His covenant promise to His Son and the Church in the Holy Spirit to the heirs of His promise; and based on the impossibility of God to lie, that God cannot lie or deny Himself or go against His nature, rest secure in His only Begotten Son, for He gave His Son for eternal life to all those who believe in Him, for their is true eternal security in God's covenant promise in His Son to save all those whom He chose to believe in His Son before the foundation of the World, and Jesus will loose none of them, neither can anyone snatch them out of His hands! For the Lord gives rich blessing of everlasting Life in His Son and He will never take His Son away, once given, before the foundation of the world, to those whom He quickened and made alive to believe on Him by the Holy Spirit!
