Isaiah 48:3 states God declared former things long ago and then brought them to pass, the same pattern of foretelling that verse 5 explains.

In Isaiah 48:11, God says He acts for His own name's sake — the same reason He declared beforehand: to keep glory from idols.

Isaiah 46:10 declares God 'declaring the end from the beginning,' exactly the same claim of foretelling future events as in verse 5.

Isaiah 43:9 challenges idols to declare former things, reinforcing God's exclusive ability to predict and prove His sovereignty.

In Isaiah 44:8, God again declares He has told from of old and there is no other Rock — reinforcing the same exclusive foreknowledge to prevent idolatry.

Jeremiah 44:17 shows the very idolatry God's foretelling aims to prevent: people attributing prosperity to idols.

Jeremiah 44:18 continues the same idolatrous reasoning, showing the stubbornness God's foretelling was meant to counter.

1 Kings 13:2 is an example of God declaring a future event (Josiah) long beforehand, illustrating the pattern in Isaiah.

Acts 15:18 affirms God's foreknowledge of all His works, reinforcing the reason God declares things in advance.
