20 aYou shall fear the Lord your God; you shall serve Him, and to Him you shall hold fast, and take oaths in His name.  
21 He is your praise, and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.

Deuteronomy 10:17

God of gods, and Lord of lords - That is, He is the source whence all being and power proceed; every agent is finite but himself; and he can counteract, suspend, or destroy all the actions of all creatures whensoever he pleases. If he determine to save, none can destroy; if he purpose to destroy, none can save. How absolutely necessary to have such a God for our friend!

A great God - mighty - hael haggibbor , the mighty God; this is the very title that is given to our blessed Lord and Savior, Isaiah 9:6.
