    The great I AM

    By Jerome Stewart

    In the book of Exodus the LORD wanted Moses to lead the children of Israel to
    freedom after over 430 years of Egyptian bondage. They would cross the Red Sea
    on dry ground. The average depth of the Red Sea is 1,640 feet with a maximum
    depth of 9,970 ft. However Moses lacked confidence. What if it were you? In
    Exodus chapter 3 vss. 9 & 10, the bible says; “Now therefore the cry of the
    children of Israel has come to Me, and I have seen their oppression with which
    the Egyptians have oppress them. Come now, therefore and I will send you to
    Pharaoh that you may bring My people the children of Israel out of Egyptian
    bondage.” Be advised the God referred to in the book of Exodus, is the exact
    same God today. Oh yes! The children of Israel, eventually came out of Egyptian
    bondage, because the LORD said so! The bible says in vss. 11 and 12; But Moses
    said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the
    children of Israel out of Egypt?” So He said, ‘I will certainly be with you. And this
    shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out
    of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.” Reference was made to Mt. Sinai.
    Horeb is another name for Mt. Sinai. Vss. 13 and 14 says; Then Moses said to God,
    “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your
    fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name? what shall I
    say to them?” And God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, Thus you
    shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.” Here’s the point.
    When it comes to the providence of God, there are no limitations. He’s not god
    with the little g meaning many. He is the almighty God that’s capital God meaning
    the One and only. Romans chapter 9 vs. 15 says; “He says to Moses I will have
    mercy on whomever I will have mercy, And I will have compassion on whomever I
    will have compassion.” That’s the definition of sovereignty, which means supreme
    power and authority. The Apostle Paul said to the brethren in Romans 8 vs. 31; “If
    God is for us who can be against us?” Which begs the question? Who is your God
    or gods? Who are you placing your trust in? There is a major difference!
