I am That I am
Memory Verse: - Ex 3:14 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.
Bible Reading: - Ex 3: 1 – 22
Message
God that answers prayers and to whom all flesh must come in a bid to finding solutions to their problems and destructions revealed himself to Moses in a flame of fire in our text this morning as I AM THAT I AM. God is whom he is yesterday, today and forever. He heard the cries of Israelites from holy heaven and come down to deliver them from their afflictions and servitude.
I am that I am is still whom He is today – he hears and answers prayers; he saves and delivers from afflictions; he is alive yesterday and today; he is as powerful today as he was yesterday; he was mighty yesterday in the days of old and is more powerful today than yesterday. His power was only given to prophets in the Old Testament, but the believers today under the New Testament are more powerful and greater than prophets of old according to the sayings of Jesus in Mt 11:11 that “verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.”
Greater is he that is in today’s believers than he that is in the world. You have ample opportunity to call upon God today and he will hear thee for He is God of today as well as of yesterday, but is closer to us than that of yesterday through Jesus our Lord.
Whatever happens, He is God – I am that I am, He changes not. He heard and mightily delivered the Israelites in those days, he is still the same today and that is why He is I AM THAT I AM – meaning I remain my mighty self I have not change.
In the past, he had broken the yoke of barrenness, oppression, poverty, infirmities, sicknesses, diseases and sorrow. He can do more than these for you today because his power remains as mighty as ever. All you need to do is to enter into covenant relationship with Him. He had covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (the Israel) according to our text this morning in: Ex 3:7 And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;
He called them my people because they were in covenant relationship with him and this you cannot claim today without Christ. A mere religion predicated on church confirmation, infant baptism, ablutions, penance, fasting and other religious activities cannot make you to be a joint heir with Christ. But completely yielding to the Lordship of Christ after confession of sins to God [not to any man], forsaking those sins and accepting Christ as personal Lord and saviour without any intermediary will make you a joint heir with Christ and qualify you to be a partaker of saints’ inheritance.
The ball is now in your court and it depends on whom you want to follow – God or Satan. But you indirectly choose Satan by rejecting our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I counsel you to choose Jesus and see how mighty God [the father of our Lord] is, He is I AM THAT I AM; the mighty one that all satanic hosts cannot confront. Cast your burdens to him and leave them there, if you trust and never doubt, he will surely bring you out.
Confession of the Day
I am that I am is my God, therefore I will not fear what a man can do unto me
Prayer Points – I am that I am I believe in you, show yourself mighty on my behalf in all ramifications.

STERLING LEADERSHIP

Image
D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
