“God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’ And he said, ‘Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.’” – Exodus 3:14 When God called Moses at the burning bush, He didn’t give him a pep talk about his skill set. He didn’t offer a leadership manual or walk through the basics of public speaking. Instead, when Moses asked, “Who should I say sent me?” God simply replied, “I AM.” In other words...  Read More

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” – Matthew 5:14 Jesus didn’t just say He was the Light. He looked at His followers and gave them the same identity. That wasn’t a compliment. It was a calling. Light stands out. It exposes what’s hidden. It brings warmth and clarity. That’s what you’re meant to do when you walk into any environment: make it brighter because yo...  Read More

“Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy?” - Isaiah 55:2 We don’t usually call it hunger, but we all feel it. That gnawing sense that something is missing. For some, it shows up in the endless scrolling, the need to always be in the loop. For others, it’s chasing money, success, affirmation, or even just a sense of control. We’re all ...  Read More

"Jesus said to them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.'" – John 8:58 It is one of the most explosive things Jesus ever said. He did not say, “I was,” though that would’ve already been staggering. He said, “I am.” Not past tense. Not future. Present. Eternal. Unchanging. With those two words, Jesus wasn’t just making a statement about time. He was claiming the name of God. The ...  Read More

"But Moses said to God, 'Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?' He said, 'But I will be with you.'" – Exodus 3:11–12 Moses had a million reasons to disqualify himself. He was a runaway with a past. He had no clout in Egypt, no eloquent voice, and no army at his back. When God called him, his first reaction was the same as ours often is, "Who am I?" But...  Read More

"Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'" - John 8:12 Jesus made this declaration at a moment that would have stunned the crowd. It was not a random statement. It happened during the Feast of Tabernacles, when massive lamps lit up the temple courtyard to celebrate God’s past guidance in the wil...  Read More

“Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you.” - John 6:27 In our world, bread is optional. It comes in baskets at restaurants, sits on the side of your plate, or gets avoided altogether in trendy diets. But in the world Jesus lived in, bread was life. It wasn’t a side dish; it was survival. So when Jesus said He was ...  Read More

“Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.” - Acts 2:36 Most people are cool with Jesus as long as He stays in the past tense. A wise teacher. A kind healer. A man who did good things and said powerful words. But the problem is, Jesus is not just a man from history. He is alive. He is exalted. And He is Lord. I...  Read More

"I AM WHO I AM." - Exodus 3:14 There is a moment in Scripture where Moses stands before a burning bush, overwhelmed, confused, and uncertain. God calls him to something far greater than himself, and Moses has one very practical question. Who do I say sent me? In other words, who are You? God doesn’t respond with a title or a job description. He doesn’t say, “Tell them the Creator sent you” or “Tel...  Read More

"Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you." - Deuteronomy 31:6 Following God will take you places that feel uncertain. He may lead you into situations that stretch your faith or require bold action. But over and over again in Scripture, God tells His people the same thing: Do not be afraid. Tha...  Read More

"God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is pure. He is a shield to all who take refuge in him." - Psalm 18:30 Sometimes God rescues in ways we don’t immediately recognize. The story of Israel in 605 BC is a perfect example. Nebuchadnezzar’s attack on Jerusalem was brutal and left the people defeated, scattered, and seemingly hopeless. But that wasn’t the end of the story. It was the beginnin...  Read More

“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because I tell you, many will try to enter and won’t be able.” - Luke 13:24 There are some things you just cannot afford to get wrong. Jesus does not dodge the hard questions. When someone asks Him if only a few will be saved, He does not give a number or a timeline. Instead, He gives a warning. He says to make every effort to enter through the ...  Read More
