Day 41. Why do you call God the Father “Almighty”? (2026)

Today is day 41 and we are on the section on the First Article of the Apostles' Creed on God the Father Almighty. Today we are on the second line: “The Father Almighty” and studying question 41.

41. Why do you call God the Father “Almighty”?

I call the Father “Almighty” because he has power over everything and accomplishes everything he wills. Together with his Son and Holy Spirit, the Father is all-knowing and ever present in every place. (Psalm 139:1–16; Isaiah 40:12–26; Daniel 4:34b–37; Luke 1:34–37; Revelation 4:8b–11)

We will conclude today with The Collect for Annunciation Sunday found on page 599 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
