1. ONLY GOD CAN PROPHESY


1. ONLY GOD CAN PROPHESY

When it comes to predicting the future, mankind has a poor record. We simply have no way of know what’s going to happen tomorrow, the next day, the next month, or the next year. By contrast, God knows the future, and reveals glimpses of it in the Bible. And so far, every single prediction that’s been fulfilled has occurred exactly the way God said it would. He has never even been slightly wrong.

1. According to Isaiah 46:9-10, God is able to do that which no one else can do. He “Declares the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done.”

2. According to Isaiah 45:5-7, the LORD “forms light, creates darkness, makes peace, and creates calamity.” This tells us that “He is the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Him.”

3. In Psalm 33:10-11, it tells us that “He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect” and “The plans of His heart to all generations.”

4. Proverbs 21:1 tells us that “The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord.”

5. God has complete and total control over world events.

6. This should increase our level of confidence greatly, to know that God is sovereign and in complete control of our destiny.

7. This benefits us, as Christian believers, in keeping focused on God, to walk in total obedience to Him, and to trust Him with everything in our lives.
