God Is Omnipotent (All Powerful)
God calls Himself the Almighty many times throughout the Bible Genesis 17:1; 35:11, etc). He has all the power there is, and no being can exercise any power unless God allows it (Romans 13:1). Again, only God is omnipotent, for only one being can have all power. 1Timothy 6:15 describes God as "the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords." The saints of God in heaven will proclaim "Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth" (Revelation 19:6). God beautifully describes His great omnipotence in Job 38:41.[/b]
The only limitations God has are those He willingly places on Himself or those resulting from His moral nature. Since He is holy and sinless, He abides by His own moral character . . . .therefore it is impossible for God to lie or contradict His own Word (Titus 1:2; Hebrews 6:18).[/b]
