The
children of Israel were in trouble. The Egyptians had put them under
subjection. What began as a blessing, now had become bondage. Their entrance
into Egypt saved Jacob and his family, but now they were under hard task
masters who did not want the nation to grow and prosper. But God, who is
faithful, heard the cries of His people and revealed Himself to Moses.
And
God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the
children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. Ex 3:14 (KJV)
God called Himself the “I AM.” This
denoted that whatever the children of Israel could need, He would be that to
them. On today, every Christian should be confident that the same God who
revealed Himself to Moses, revealed Himself in Christ.
If we have received Christ, we have
an audience and connection to the “I Am” who is great. Be confident knowing
that you are not alone because the Great “I AM” is there.
Prayer
of the Week:
Lord, I thank you for your great love revealed
in Christ. I appreciate the gift of salvation. Amen.”
