February 16: Heavenly Happiness.
God Knows the End From the Beginning.
"And declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.' "--Isaiah 46:10, NKJV
HE THAT RULETH in the heavens is the one who sees the end from the beginning--the one before whom the mysteries of the past and the future are alike outspread, and who, beyond the woe and darkness and ruin that sin has wrought, beholds the accomplishment of His own purposes of love and blessing.--Patriarchs and Prophets, 43.
The Bible shows us God in His high and holy place, not in a state of inactivity, not in silence and solitude, but surrounded by ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands of holy beings, all waiting to do His will. Through these messengers He is in active communication with every part of His dominion. By His Spirit He is everywhere present. Through the agency of His Spirit and His angels He ministers to the children of men.
Above the distractions of the earth He sits enthroned; all things are open to His divine survey; and from His great and calm eternity He orders that which His providence sees best.--The Ministry of Healing, 417.
Daniel replied, "There are no wise men, enchanters,
magicians, or fortune-tellers who can reveal the king's secret.
But there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets,
and he has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the future."
--Daniel 2:27, 28, NLT
