“I will go in the strength of the LORD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only” (Psalm 71:16).

“But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever He hath pleased” (Psalm 115:3).

“And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man’s mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?” (Exodus 4:11).

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:4,5).

“Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving” (Colossians 4:2).
