A Word

God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?

Numbers 23:19BSB

What it means

God does not lie and does not waver. What He has said He will do. Human promises fail; His do not.

Spoken by Balaam, hired to curse Israel, who can only bless them. Even an unwilling prophet must say that God does not change His mind about His people.

Where it addresses you

  • Someone has broken their word to you.

  • You are waiting on a promise that has not yet come.
