The one who commanded us not to lie will certainly not lie himself. For nothing is impossible with God except to lie.
Therefore let faith in him be rekindled within us, and let us understand that all things are near to him.

“Who will say to him, ‘What have you done?’ Or who will resist the might of his strength?” When he wills and as he wills, he will do all things, and nothing he has decreed will pass away.
Everything is before him, and nothing has escaped his counsel,
for “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands. Day pours forth speech to day, and night proclaims knowledge to night. There are no words or speeches whose voices are not heard.”
