This is an audacious and evident self awareness; A subject and predicated assurance in firm resolve of an idea that initiated the whole of existence!
How can I describe someone who is everything and wrap it up in one name? A self existent personality, Eternal and One who has been and always will be!
There is a lot of significance in the description; I AM, than I realize. Such an awesome composition! Yahweh; Jehovah, The Ever present and Living One. There is no single way to explain God appropriately!
A name that is extremely rich in meaning: “I AM”. It expresses the truth of the Omnipresence of God. I AM Who is the Living Spring- the Everlasting Life Source.
When Moses asked God of His identity, evidently he got a response that would not need a long dissertation about God. He simply put, “You shall say ... I AM has sent me to you” He preceded the statement with “I AM What I have been and remain consistently... this is my name forever and my memorial unto all generations” Exodus 3 : 15b.
The Lord’s emphasis is an assurance of His permanent presence among His people, God’s covenant with Abraham, His redemption of His people and His faithfulness through all generations.
God was saying; “You don’t have to worry about Pharaoh or anyone else, I AM able to take care of anything you encounter. Whatever you need, I AM! Either I have it or I can get it, if it does not exist, I will create it. I have everything covered not just for the present but for all time” I AM God Almighty (Genesis 35 : 11) God All-Sufficient : the resource that nourishes life. The Strong-Breasted One, MY FULL BREASTED MOTHER! The woman whose breast milk can never run dry! Faithful One who multiplied Abraham abundantly!
Regardless of the deadness of Sarah’s womb, I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE (John 11 : 25) The FACT is that doctor’s report has a finality tone, I AM the TRUTH; the ultimate reality. “I assure you... before Abraham was born, I AM” John 8 : 58. I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE before the idea of human science was conceived! “I AM The Lord that healeth thee, I will put none of these diseases of Egypt upon thee” Exodus 15 : 26.
If you crave for an undeniable experience with God, “Jesus said, I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH (ULTIMATE REALITY) and THE LIFE, no one comes to The Father except through me” John 14 : 6. My friend, sin is anything contrary to God’s nature. “I AM ... HOLY”... Leviticus 19 : 2. Sin falls short of God’s Glory, His Nature and Character – The Bible is consistent about death being the purnishment of sin – both physical and spiritual alienation from God. “Then the evil desire, when it is conceived, gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is fully matured, brings forth death” James 1 : 15.
For you who already have a relationship with Christ, you have “rivers of Living Water” flowing out of the abundance of the Holy Spirit – He is sufficient to meeting every need and solving every problem. Allow Him to make you that plant situated by a never seizing flow of His fountain of counsel and direction. Covenant Child, in and out of season, you are assured of sufficiency in all of life spheres. “And it shall come to pass that everything that lives which moves, withersoever the rivers shall come, shall live” Ezekiel 47 : 9a.
You think you need more proofs that He is Messiah, He says “Blessed are you who takes no offence at me” Matthew 11 : 6. Even when in the midst of a violent storm, so that your boat is covered up by the waves and it seems that the Master is asleep on a soft cushion in the cabin. You’ve been asking, seeking and knocking for years, but beloved, The Good Shepherd seems to have taken a stroll on the sea, while you are tossed and beaten by the waves of delay and discouragement, just take a cue from Peter and cry out to Him, oh yea of little faith! I AM will show up in this situation (Matthew 14 : 27)
“I AM The Lord, The God of all flesh; Is there anything too hard for me?” Jeremiah 32 : 27
“Before the mountains were brought forth or ever before you formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God” Psalm 90 : 2.
“Who is a God like You... You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy” Micah 7 : 18.
Behold, a people called by your name!
Yes, I believe I AM will help, uphold and retain with His victorious right hand of rightness and justice. Isaiah 41 : 10.
Your counsel shall stand and You will do your pleasure and purpose! Isaiah 46 : 10. Therefore, I PLACE MY HANDS IN YOURSTRONG HANDS AND TRUST YOU, I AM!
