I was thinking of the Old Testament too when pondering this question. Obviously, God was not happy with the world he made in the past. He flooded it to fix his 'mistakes'. Let me rephrase, human mistakes. Anyway, He did change his mind about the people that he created and decided to get rid of them. So I think that God can change his mind.
