None but the true God can say, “My purpose will be established.” James wisely warned us against boasting of tomorrow, for we don’t know what tomorrow will hold. Instead, he taught that we, as finite creatures, should say, “If the Lord wills I will do such and so” (James 4:13–16). But God is completely different than man: He can say that His purpose will be established, and beyond all question, it will be.
