"All powerful"
It comes from Latin I think where "omni" is "all", kind of like omnivore (eats everything) or omniscient (knows everything); and "potence" is "powerful", kind of like potent (concentrated) or potentate (powerful person).

For a couple examples:
"An omnipotent being can grant any wish"
"His foolish pursuit of omnipotence was his downfall"
"While omnipotence seems like an unreasonable goal, I think we could be more effective"
"The omnipotence of the deity made it difficult for followers to stray too far from their teachings"
