“God said to Moses, “I AM who I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”” Exodus 3:14 (NIV)
When God called to Moses from the burning bush in the wilderness of Midian and told him He was sending Moses to bring the people of Israel out of the bondage in Egypt, Moses wanted God to identify Himself by name. God answered by identifying Himself with a very special name. Our God is the One who IS. But His name means more than that. He has always been and He will always be. “God is the uncaused Being that caused everything else to come into existence. God is the uncreated Creator who created the universe and everything in it.”* To communicate this, God gave a message about Himself to Moses to pass on to His people in Egypt. We believe that this message is for us today too. Yes, God wants you and me to remember always that He exists, that He is here. Let's be careful to never allow the enemy Satan to cause us to question whether there is a God. Let's rejoice in the assurance that our God is there and the He is here for us. He is the great I AM and always has been.
* God has no Beginning
