'Granted' in the Bible

"A man cannot obtain anything," replied John, "unless it has been granted to him from Heaven.

So He added, "That is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it be granted him by the Father."

"You would have had no power whatever over me," replied Jesus, "had it not been granted you from above. On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more guilty than you are."
