Isaiah 55:9
“"If you would," he says, "Ascend to heaven, banish cares of earth.

— Isaiah 55:9 —

11so shall my word be, whatever shall proceed out of my mouth, it shall by no means turn back, until all the things which I willed shall have been accomplished; and I will make thy ways prosperous, and will effect my commands.
