Key Verse

“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.” Exodus 3:14

Text — Exodus 3:13-16

Message

I am, is a three-letter word that carries a special message. For example, if mummy comes into the kitchen while you were doing the dishes and asks “who put this cup on the cooker?” Your answer will likely be “I am”. This means you are the one and no other person. “I Am” is the answer God gave to Moses in response to the request to know Who was sending him to the children of Israel. This name of God means, He is.

Do you look forward to the end of a long school day or to the end of the week? Do you sometimes wonder what you will be when you grow up? Everything in life has a beginning and an end, whether it is a day or a lifetime. We measure the time between the beginning and the end of something by minutes or hours, in days or in years. It is hard for us to understand what it could be like not having time. God uses the name “I AM” to help us understand that He is in the past, the present
and the future. God doesn’t just see into the future, or travel back in time. He is the past right now, He is everywhere at this very moment and He is the future at this instance – all at the same time! He is always just there; that is why He called himself I AM. As Moses trusted in this name and was able to fulfill his call, so you must trust in God. He is the Same yesterday, today and forever. Whatever wonder He did in the past, He will do in your life right now.
