Then God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God relented from the disaster that He said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it.
Jonah 3:10
Does God change His mind? Some passages of the Bible studied alone and out of context could lead to that conclusion. But Numbers 23:19 says, “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind” (NIV). God always knows what He is going to do, His logic is consistent, and His character is unchanging. Malachi 3:6 says, “I the Lord do not change” (NIV). And James 1:17 says that with God there is “no variation or shadow of turning.”
