Romans 11:33

Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!


Devotional Thoughts

by David Wilkerson

God's plan to preserve His people can be summed up in one sentence: God is going to preserve His people by the power of His predetermined Word!

We are going to be preserved by the spoken word of God — a word of deliverance that was pronounced from the foundation of the world! It is something God determined before the world was!

Beloved, our God is never caught off guard! Nothing surprises Him! He does not need to call an emergency meeting with heavenly hosts to come up with a last-days strategy of protection. He has no "Operation Preservation." God spoke a plan into existence long before there were nations, armies, wars, depressions, plagues and violence.

God foresaw it all, and He spoke into existence a word of preservation that is as eternal and unshakable as His own character! Paul says that God "hath determined the times before appointed" (Acts 17:26).

Hour by hour, day by day, God is going to preserve us in the same way He now preserves the sun, the moon, the stars, the galaxies and the very forces of nature — by His predetermined, spoken word. It is the same word that governs light, darkness, the tides, the seasons, the air we breathe!
