To whom then will you liken Me, or to whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One (Isaiah 40:25 NKJV). Thus says the Lord: “I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?

If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you (John 15:7 NKJV).

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations (Psalm 100:4-5 NKJV).
