We are safe within His arms

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for Me? (Jeremiah 32:27)

 God’s power is infinite, meaning that it is without any limits, immeasurable. While Scripture affirms that God can do all things, it also states there are some things God cannot do. He can’t deny Himself by going against His nature and character. He can’t lie. He can’t be tempted with evil or tempt others with evil. He can’t do wickedly or pervert justice. He won’t violate His righteousness.
 God’s omnipotence is an important factor that builds our faith in Him, as He is not someone who makes claims and promises which He does not have the power to perform. God has the power to deliver on what He has promised.
 He promised that through Abraham the whole world would be blessed; that David’s seed and line would be eternal; that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem, would suffer and die for the sins of mankind. He delivered. He prophesied events centuries in advance; they came true.
 When we read His promises to us, we can put our weight down on what He has said, as He is the all-powerful Creator and sustainer of the universe and all that is in it. He who is infinite power is our Father, and we are His children. We are safe within His arms. —Peter Amsterdam [1]

 For the God who is Almighty is the God whose character is holiness, love, and truth. Therefore, He does, and will do, only those things that are in harmony with who He is… In the scripture, over and over, God’s omnipotence is associated with His character. —J. Rodman Williams
