His attributes never change. God's will never changes. Psalm 33:11 says, “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.” His Word is Timeless and His Promises are Everlasting!

No, of course God does not change, nor does His will or His word.
However, just as a parent would tell a very young child "don't touch" when reaching for an expensive breakable, that same parent might specifically command that very child in later years to dust the exact same breakable when that child had developed better fine motor skills. In this way, The Lord adapts His commands to us.
The penalty for breaking a valuable item will always remain the same, however.
