The Story of My Life - Seeing Yourself in the Life of MosesSample

Hello, My Name Is...

Invitation to SELAH

Before you spend time face-to-face with God today, take some time to SELAH (Stop, Exhale, Lean In, Ask & Hear).

Passage to Read

Exodus 3:14-15

Reflect

God’s initial answer to Moses’ question was not necessarily His actual name, but a statement of who He is. Some people translate the Hebrew to say “I AM WHO I AM.” But it could also be translated as “I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE.” It is a statement of His continued existence with His people. God is unchanging in his faithfulness, presence, love, and power. He is who He is.

When you accept the invitation from God to partner with Him in His plan, you are walking under the authority that comes with His name. You aren’t walking alone. In your conversations with your friends, “I AM” has sent you. In hard conversations with your family, “I AM” is with you. As you work up the courage to invite a friend to church, “I AM” has sent you. You don’t go alone. So accept His invitation to go. Don’t live in shame. Remember God is with you. Get to know God and remember “I AM WHO I AM.”
