Isaiah 14:24 - God will accomplish His will in my life ...

The LORD of hosts has sworn saying, 

"Surely, just as I have intended so it has happened, 

and just as I have planned so it will stand.  

Isaiah 14:24 (www.biblegateway.com)

This verse has come to mean a lot me the past month.  What an awesome promise!!  

To borrow from a commentary:  John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; as he had shaped and schemed it, and drew the form and image in his own mind, or fixed and settled it there, so should it be done in due time, as every thing is that is determined by the Lord; and this shows that nothing is casual, or comes by chance, but everything as it is purposed of God; and that as everything comes to pass which he has resolved, so every such resolution proceeds from thought, and is the produce of the highest wisdom and prudence:

and as I have purposed, so it shall stand; or "counselled" (l); within himself, for he does all things according to the counsel of his will; and which always stands firm, sure, and unalterable, let what devices soever be in the heart of man.

I know that this verse is smack dab in the middle of a the prophecies concerning the fall of Babylon, or concerning the destruction of the Assyrian monarchy, but the words have spoken into my current life situations.  

What God has intended for my life will come to completion, and what He has planned will stand firm to the end of my life!  God is faithful, His promises are true!!  Now I just need to trust in His unchanging hand!! 

Learning to wait and trust!!
