Day 4: I Am Not
I AM NOT _____________!
How would you fill in the blank?
Oh how easy it is to tell you who I am not,
as the list would go on and on...
But then I look up
And Jesus says
I AM
Therefore
You are not who you believe yourself to be because
I AM HE~
The One Who Was from the very beginning (John 4:26; 1:1)
I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE~
the One Who fully satisfies all our hungers and thirsts (John 6:35; Philippians 4:19).
I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD~
the One Who illuminates the darkest of dark with His Truth (John 9:5).
I AM THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP~
the One Who welcomes whomever walks through...
to save, to give abundant life (John 10:7; 10).
I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD~
the One Who knows our name and Who gave up HIS life for (John 10:11; 4-15).
I AM THE SON OF GOD~
The One Who makes us HIS Child (John 10:36; 1:12-13).
I AM THE RESURRECTION & THE LIFE~
the One Who raises us from our fallen state by giving us
His life (John 11:25; 1 John 5:11-12).
I AM THE WAY & THE TRUTH & THE LIFE~
the One Who we follow because HE knows the way we should take,
that is paved with Truth that breathes life into our breathless body (John 14:6).
I AM THE TRUE VINE~
The One Who we abide in so that we bear HIS fruit (John 15:1; 15:4).
I AM THE APLPHA & THE OMEGA~
the One
WHO WAS
WHO IS
&
WHO IS TO COME (Revelations 1:8)
"When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man And He placed His right hand on me, saying,
"Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last" (Revelations 1:17)
Therefore~
How can we ever say that that I am not?
Because if
JESUS is what I am not
then I am all that HE has come to bring.
So I ask you again~
How would you now fill in...
I AM NOT _____________!
Cross out "Not" because
JESUS
is all that you are not.
So today
Let’s FAST from the weight of
"I am not"
By
Holding on to the hand of
I AM
Who changes every one of your
I am nots
to
I AM _____________
Because
HE said
I AM!
Listen to the song "I AM"~
