God is ABLE
Therefore, Your Majesty, please accept my advice: remove your sins by doing what is right; remove your wrongdoing by showing mercy to the poor. Then your safety will be long lasting.” Daniel 4:27
I gave you an honored title, though you didn’t know me. I am the Lord, and there is no other; besides me there is no God. I strengthen you-though you don’t know me—so all will know, from the rising of the sun to its setting, that there is nothing apart from me. I am the Lord; there’s no other. Isaiah 45: 4-6
