God is immutable. He never changes.
He will always be the person he has revealed himself to be in the Bible and in nature.
For many of us, God’s immutability may be his most important attribute.
God’s Goodness
God is inherently good.
Although our perception of his goodness may fluctuate in keeping with our comfort and convenience, his actual goodness never changes.
Because his goodness is immutable, God is always trustworthy, even amid affliction. Therefore, our faith in him is always justified.
God’s Love
God’s immutability is why his love for us is unfailing and unconditional.
His nature is unaffected by our behavior and impervious to the ebbs and flows of our righteousness.
This means that God’s love, a fundamental aspect of his nature, remains steadfast even when we are not.
Its length, breadth, height, depth, duration, density, and intensity remain constant regardless of our disobedience.
God’s Contentment
God is by nature utterly content.
He manifests in us the attributes that comprise his contentment—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—as we walk in harmony with him.
Because these attributes are immutable, his true contentment is not contingent on our circumstances.
Therefore, we can experience and exude it in any situation.
