omni- meaning “all”; potent meaning “powerful”; omnipotent means all-powerful.

Omnipotent is a philosophical term. I prefer to stick to the more biblical term almighty.

God is almighty in that he holds all power and authority. Nothing happens outside of God's control or permission.

Psalm 33:

6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth
Daniel 4:

35 “All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing,
But He does according to His will in the host of heaven
And among the inhabitants of earth;
And no one can ward off His hand
Or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’
Isaiah 43:

13 “Even from eternity I am He,
And there is none who can deliver out of My hand;
I act and who can reverse it?”
Daniel 2:

21 He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise
John 19:

11 Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above.
Matthew 19:

26 And looking at them Jesus said to them, “With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Revelation 1:

8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
Almighty
Παντοκράτωρ (Pantokratōr)
Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular
Strong's 3841: Ruler of all, ruler of the universe, the almighty. From pas and kratos; the all-ruling, i.e. God.

Is God omnipotent?

Yes, in the sense that he is almighty.

The Lord God is all powerful. His power is infinite. Not only is God's power infinite, but the Lord God is a Googolplex times more powerful than the second most powerful being in Creation.

Amen, brother. God's power level is infinite, beyond all measure, and can not be contained. This reminds me of a Chris Tomlin song, Indescribable (2004), which I posted on the forum over a month ago.

For reference, this is how a Googolplex is represented in exponents.
