The Great I Am

Exodus 3:14 "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."

What a powerful scripture! During this time, God was speaking to Moses in a burning bush. Moses was at first startled, but quickly put to ease after God got His attention. Can you imagine watching a bush on fire and it not being consumed by the fire? In my own thoughts, I believe God was giving reassurance not only through Him saying I Am That I Am, but even by that very demonstration. Let's replace the bush with the Israelites and the fire with their current situation, problems, tribulation, and let God remain God. Okay, even though the bush(Israelites) was on fire(going through trials) the fact God was in the midst, no real harm came upon the bush(Israelites). Is that not like today? What may appear to be a hazardous situation is just an opportunity for I Am to show up! The fire made the bush better because God was in the midst! Even in our trials or tribulations, because of I Am are trials can not consume us rather He consumes our trials. What we seemingly thought was great in size He shows Himself all The more Greater! Then God says, I Am That I Am! The human mind can't grasp that statement. Lord what do You mean I Am That I Am? Well, I Am The Beginning and The End, A Strong Tower, A Promise Keeper, The Best Husband known to mankind, The Only Wise God, Your Salvation, Your King, Satan's adversary, Man's Redeemer, I AM THAT I AM! God is____________! Insert whatever you need Him to be and remember that anytime you are going through trials in life and tell the devil Who He Is to you as well. Satan already knows Who God Is, but we must tell Him Who He Is to us with all confidence and the devil WILL flee! For He Is The Great I Am!
