STRONG AND CAPABLE
And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.
them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
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.
And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt:
And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey. Exodus 3:11-17
We must know that we are strong and capable of accomplishing any task that God sets before us. "Certainly, I will be with thee," says the Lord. Just as he spoke to Moses so many years ago, God is speaking to his covenanted people, his church. God has a plan, a purpose and a destination for our lives, but we must run in the power and presence of I AM. For I AM is the Creator; He is the Originator of all things in heaven and in earth. I AM is all knowing and all present. There is no one, no time, no place outside of His Authority. Moses became strong and capable of delivering the children of Israel from the bondage of the Egyptians once he knew the strength and ability of I AM.
Today, we are strong and capable because we know the strength and ability of I AM.
" And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." Daniel 11:32
