Isaiah 40:28

God's power and sovereigntyCreationStrength and help in weaknessGod's faithfulness

26 Lift up your eyes on high: Who created all these? He leads forth the starry host by number; He calls each one by name. Because of His great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and why do you assert, O Israel, “My way is hidden from the LORD, and my claim is ignored by my God”?

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary; His understanding is beyond searching out.

29 He gives power to the faint and increases the strength of the weak.

30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall.
