Commentators stress that God's ability to declare the end from the beginning proves He has a sovereign plan for all of history. His 'counsel shall stand' means His purpose is fixed and cannot be frustrated. Scholars like Albert Barnes note this is a source of immense comfort; our security rests not on chance, but on the unshakeable will of an all-powerful and wise God.
