It is God alone who judges;

he decides who will rise and who will fall.

Psalm 75:7

(The Matterhorn)

All heaven will praise your great wonders,

LORD;

myriads of angels 

will praise you for your faithfulness.

For who in all of heaven 

can compare with the LORD?

What mightiest angel is anything like the LORD?

The highest angelic powers 

stand in awe of God

He is far more awesome 

than all who surround his throne.

Psalm 89:5-7

On the holy mountain

stands the city founded by the LORD.

He loves the city of Jerusalem

more than any other city in Israel.

O city of God,

what glorious things are said of you!

Psalm 87:1-3

(St Mauritius Church, Zermatt, Switzerland)

Teach me your ways,

O LORD,

that I may live according to your truth!

Grant me purity of heart,

so that I may honor you.

With all my heart I will praise you,

O Lord my God.

I will give glory to your name forever,

for your love for me is very great.

You have rescued me from the depths of death.

Psalm 86:11-13

“You have been chosen to know me,

believe in me,

and understand that I alone am God.

There is no other God—

there never has been,

and there never will be. 

I,

yes I,

am the LORD,

and there is no other Savior.”

Isaiah 43:10-11

…listen to the LORD who created you.

“Do not be afraid,

for I have ransomed you.

I have called you by name;

you are mine.

When you go through deep waters,

I will be with you.

When you go through rivers of difficulty,

you will not drown.

When you walk through the fire of oppression,

you will not be burned up;

the flames will not consume you.

For I am the LORD,

your God,

the Holy One of Israel,

your Savior.”

Isaiah 43:1-3

Don’t be afraid,

for I am with you.

Don’t be discouraged,

for I am your God.

I will strengthen you and help you.

I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

Isaiah 41:10

“This is what the LORD,

the God of Israel,

says:

Because you prayed…

the LORD has spoken…”

Isaiah 37:21-21

“I am the LORD;

that is my name!

I will not give my glory to anyone else,

nor share my praise with carved idols.

Everything I prophesied has come true,

and now I will prophesy again.

I will tell you the future before it happens.”

Isaiah 42:8-9

(Galveston, TX)

“Who has done such mighty deeds,

summoning each new generation 

from the beginning of time?

It is I,

the LORD,

the First and the Last.

I alone am he.”

Isaiah 41:4
