You Can Get There From Here

Day 113     I Am God!

Exodus 6:2 (The Message)

 God continued speaking to Moses, reassuring him, "I am God.

In the very beginning of this journey I talked about how David “encouraged himself in the Lord.”  (I Samuel 30:6b KJV)The NIV says, “David found strength in the Lord his God.”

When we go through difficult times, God wants us to know that He is not a far off God but One who desires to be as personal as you need Him to be.  God is “reassuring” Moses in our scripture today. In The Message it says, “God continued speaking to Moses, reassuring him, ‘I am God.” If He did that for Moses(under the old covenant), He will certainly keep His promise to us under the new covenant.

I went to www.biblegateway.com and put in “I am God.”  As you can imagine there were way too many scriptures to go through in one sitting, so here are just a few:

            Exodus 15: 26  I AM  your healing.

            Exodus 19:25  I AM your provision.

            Exodus 20:24  I AM  your protection.

            Exodus 16:12  I AM your peace.

            Leviticus 23: 43  I AM your deliverance.

Yes, in this world adverse circumstances come but because God is our God, we go through those things.  We don’t stay in them.  Oh we can, but God wants to be our personal God.   He wants to give us instructions.  He wants to help us.  He has provided so much for us and He wants us to know and understand and take hold of his provision for us.  Then we will have a testimony of His greatness and His goodness to give to a discouraged, dying world that has no hope.

It’s so reassuring to know that God knows right where we are and what we are facing today.  He wants to take us by the hand as His child and take us to the other side of our situations.  That’s the reason for these daily “meetings with God” that we started 112 days ago.  That’s the reason the name of this blog is, “YOU CAN GET THERE FROM HERE.”  It’s because you can!!!

And God is going to show you how!  Are you ready to go?  Are you ready to keep going----until you get there?  Are you ready to let God reassure you on a daily basis
