“I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee” (Job 42:2)—that is, “no thought of thine can be hindered” (margin); or, as another has translated it, “no purpose of thine can be frustrated.” All that He has designed He does. All that He has decreed He performs. “But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever He hath pleased” (Psa. 115:3); and why has He? Because “there is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD” (Pro 21:30).
