God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The properties of God's decrees:
1. They are eternal. God makes no decrees in time, but they were all from eternity. If the divine decrees were not eternal, God would not be most perfect and unchangeable, but, like weak man, should take new counsels, and would be unable to tell everything that were to come to pass (Eph. 1:4).
2. They are most wise. God cannot properly deliberate or take counsel, as men do; for He sees all things together and at once. Nothing is determined that could have been better determined (Rom. 11:33).
3. They are free. [They depend] on no other, but all flowing from the mere pleasure of His own will. He has made no decrees suspended on any condition without Himself (Rom. 11:34).
4. They are unchangeable. God's decrees are constant; and He by no means alters His purpose, as men do (Psm. 33:1).
5. They are most holy and pure (1 Jn. 1:5).
6. They are effectual. Whatsoever God decrees comes to pass infallibly (Isa. 46.10).

INSTRUCTIONS
While looking through the December issue of "Louisiana Country," the
publication for the rural electric cooperatives in that state, I noticed
these oyster recipes that sound worth trying, particularly the Angels on
Horseback (if you like spicy stuff, see my note after recipe).
Thaw oysters if frozen. Drain oysters. Sprinkle with parsley and
seasonings. Place one oyster on each piece of bacon. Wrap bacon around
oysters; secure with toothpick. Place on broiler pan. Broil about 4 inches
from heat source 8 to 10 min. or until bacon is crisp. Turn carefully.
Broil 4 to 5 min. longer or until bacon is crisp. Makes about 30.
MY NOTE: This sounds similar to something a friend makes called Oysters
Diablo. He wraps the bacon around the oyster (sometimes he uses shrimp for
(duh) Shrimp Diablo!) and a strip of jalapeno and bastes during the
broiling process with Worcestershire.
