God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” Exodus 3:14
The character of God does not need any explanation or justification. God made a bold statement to Moses. “I am who I am.” This is an inclusive definition of God. There really are no other words necessary to describe God. His name speaks for Himself!
However, here is a brief synopsis of the character of God:
“I am almighty God who created the heavens and the earth and all living things. I choose the plan of life and death for all people. I alone control the destiny of the world. Nothing happens by chance. My hand is over all things.
I am indestructible and no one compares to Me. I am a rock who never moves and can never be shaken. I can cause the earth to tremble and turn the sun into darkness.
I am omnipotent. There is no power greater than Me. I am omniscient. My eyes see all of the past and the future.
I am the sponsor of eternal life. This is the life of my Son. He who believes in My Son will live forever.”
When you think about this powerful description of God, you can understand why at times He can become a jealous and angry God. How can anyone doubt His character or replace Him with something else?
Are you really going to worship another god or idol and reject the power and dominion of God over all things? This action is like a slap in the face to God! You are belittling God and substituting something else in His place. This arouses His anger and judgment!
Remember, God is alive and has a personality and emotions. He created you in His image and desires for you to be like Him.
Make God the centerpiece of your life and He will abundantly bless you and protect your footsteps. Don’t look for evidence or a sign. Just accept God by faith for who He says He is! Then you will meet “I AM” face to face and your life will never be the same!
