Jeremiah23:24
24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD: do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD .
What do these Atheistical Priests, and Prophets, and People think? do they think that I who am a God of purer eyes than to behold iniquity, see and take notice of what Doctrine they Preach, and what lives they live: if they did, surely they would not dare to do as they do. Do they think that I do not see, or take notice of them? Can any hide themselves out of my sight, I fill heaven and earth, not onely with my influence, but with my Essence; with the immensity of my Being; which as it cannot be circumscribed by the Air, so it is shut out of no place.
