Who Am I?

"Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt"                                                                  Exodus 3:10-14   NKJV 

This must have been a startling moment in Moses' life. First he hears a voice speaking to him from a burning bush; and then the voice tells him that he must go to Pharaoh and rescue all of the Israelites from captivity in Egypt.

Moses replied, 'Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh? (v11). He then asks God who he should say sent him on this task. God replied, 'I AM WHO I AM'. And He continued, 'Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you' v14.

We can learn a lot from this scripture. God is the great I AM. Just as He told Moses, He says to us also: 'I AM WHO I AM.' He is literally telling us:
'I AM HE who feeds you, heals you and looks after you. Whatever you need - I AM ABLE. I AM your Shalom, Shalom - Perfect Peace (Isaiah 26:3)

Like Moses said in verse 11, 'Who am I?' You can declare with God at your side, 'I don't think I am, but I know I am.' There is a major difference here; you're speaking with a voice of faith. Of course, you will possibly hear another inner voice that says you can't. But this is the word of doubt. Ignore it because if God says you can, then you can!

The dialogue may go something like this:
You say, 'Who am I to go? God says, 'Yes, but I will go with you.'
Expand this further to fit in with your life:
'I will never be able to do that.' 'Yes you will be able because I AM with you.'
'I'll never be able to do that job or go to Uni.'  'You can do this, because I AM with you.'

For every doubting word that you are about to say, quickly change it into a positive as shown above. Basically, you may be saying, 'I can't do that' but God counteracts with, 'Yes you can.' Grow your faith in this way. You may be tempted to say, 'Who am I?' Answer this by declaring, 'I am a child of the Living God. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Saviour and I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.' Philippians 4:13.

Who am I? - I am God's child.
