With my great power and outstretched arm
I made the earth and its people and the
animals that are on it, and I give it to
anyone I please.
Jeremiah 27:5
The Plan
The Lord Almighty has sworn,
“Surely, as I have planned, so it will be, and as
I have purposed, so it will stand.
Isaiah 14:24
This is the plan determined for the whole world;
this is the hand stretched out over all nations.
For the Lord Almighty has purposed, and who can
thwart him?
His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?
Isaiah 14:26, 27
The Appointed Time
You say, “I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge uprightly.
When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm.
To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up
your horns. Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak with
outstretched neck.’ “
No one from the east or the west or from the desert can exalt a man. But it
is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another.
In the hand of the Lord is a cup full of foaming wine mixed with spices;
he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to its very
dregs.
Psalm 75:2-8
Who Is The Rock?
“As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is
flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.
For who is God besides the Lord?
And who is the Rock except our God?
It is God who arms me with strength and makes my
way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he
enables me to stand on the heights. He trains my hands for
battle;
my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You give me your shield
of victory; you stoop down to make me great. You broaden
the path beneath me, so that my ankles do not turn.”
2 Samuel 22:31-37

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible
and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things
were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in
him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church;
he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything
he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness
dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether
things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood,
shed on the cross.
Colossians 1:15-20
The Power of the Dogs
Dogs have surrounded me; a band of evil men has encircled me, they have pierced my hands and my feet.
I can count all my bones;
people stare and gloat over me.
They divide my garments among them
and cast lots for my clothing.
But you, O Lord, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to
help me.
Deliver my life from the sword, my precious life from
the power of the dogs.
Psalm 22: 16-20
