This question is intended to stir thought and not to seriously consider that a person might be more powerful than G-d.
I saw this question once on another forum and it really got me to thinking. G-d is bound to behave towards us in certain ways based on how we behave.
In Judaism, we have the concept of midah cneged midah. Measure for measure. G-d is bound to act towards us in the same way we act. Although the magnitude of the measures might be different, the direction is not.
For instance, we might be rewarded abundantly for a tiny good act and experience minute affliction therapy for a great evil act.
In Judiasm, we have the concept of mashpeah which loosely translates to a flow. I think of it like the cake icing things in the bakery. We establish a connection with G-d that might be chocolate, lemon or vanilla. The connection we establish governs what flows through it.
Note, it's US that determines the nature of the connection. Hence the question of "Who is more..."

of course G-d is more powerful. Our ability to determine the nature of the connection with G-d is because we have the ability to determine to an extent how our relations are with other people.
This is also based on the assumption of how G-d seeks to relate to us, which is hard to know. All we can do is to keep searching for the right path in our life. No matter what we do, we will only comprehend the tiniest part of G-d

Depends entirely on how one defines the word God.
Some persons view God as a magnet, attracting light and repelling darkness.
Thoughts are things.
Ideas tend, over time, to materialize.
A seed, over time, can become a forest.

Man created many gods, all of them equally likely.
We are the creators, and we control the gods. That's why they constantly say what we want them to. Just go to church to see that.
