“And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain. And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 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. And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations” (Ex 3:1-15).
“7 Times Jesus said "I Am” The Gospel of John records this repeated phrase “I am” seven times. Each repetition adds another layer of understanding of His character until we see His form perfectly.
Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life."John 8:12
Jesus uttered these words to a group that witnessed an incredible scene. Teaching in the temple, a woman caught in adultery was brought to Jesus. As the accusers attempted to trick Jesus by asking if He thought the woman should be stoned, Jesus mutely wrote in the sand. The accusers evaporated and the embarrassed woman was set free with forgiveness and the admonition to turn away from the darkness. Now, turning to the remaining assembled people, Jesus tells them that He is the Light of the world.
Jesus, as the Light of the world, offers a choice between the darkness of sin and the glistening light of a life in His presence.
"I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture." -John 10:9
How does God describe Himself to His creation? In John 10, Jesus tapped into something familiar to each of His listeners—shepherding. Likely, the bleats of nearby sheep echoed behind Him as He spoke.
Anyone sneaking into a sheepfold by any means than the door was not there legitimately. The only legitimate access to the sheep was through the door.
Jesus is that Door and He alone offers the true path to salvation.
"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep." -John 10:11
Jesus is the Door and so much more. He is the Shepherd—the One whose voice the sheep know and trust. The Shepherd will protect and save the sheep at any cost.
Jesus, as the Good Shepherd, died to save each of us.
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?" -John 11:25, 26
Jesus’ friends, Mary and Martha, are distraught. Jesus has arrived too late—their brother Lazarus is dead. The grieving Martha hears Him say, “Your brother will rise again,” and she responds in faith, affirming that he will rise in the last days. But Jesus has other, more immediate plans for Lazarus.
Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life, will raise all who believe in the last days, just as He raised Lazarus.
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." -John 14:6
Thomas and the rest of Jesus’ disciples could not comprehend His leaving them. He warned them—on multiple occasions—but they could not seem to accept it. As they struggled with this, Jesus helped them to see the Father and to understand that they were one.
Jesus, as the Way, the Truth and the Life, is God, and is our only Source of salvation.
"I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing." -John 15:5
As Jesus spoke, the vines hung heavy with ripened fruit throughout the region. His listeners understood the significance of the vine and the dependency the branches had to the source of nutrition and water.
Jesus, as the Vine, is our Source of life—life today and everlasting life.

“O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD” (Psa 31:23-24).
“I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD” (Psa 27:13-14).
There are many biblical examples of God’s people being brave. Joshua had to be brave as he led the children of Israel into the Promised Land and had to face the Canaanites. Both Moses and God told Joshua to be courageous (Deuteronomy 31:7; Joshua 1:6-7). So perhaps Joshua didn’t always feel that way.Joshua also told his soldiers to be brave: “Then Joshua said to them, ‘Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage, for thus the LORD will do to all your enemies against whom you fight’” (Joshua 10:25).
“You must always remember tis: Have courage and be kind. You have more kindness in your litle finger tan most people possess in teir whole body. And it has power. More tan you know.”
~ Britany Candau ~
Courage is te most important of al te virtues because witout courage you can’t practce any oter virtue consistntly. You can practce any virtue erratcaly, but noting consistntly witout courage.”
~ Maya Angelou ~
“Te opposit of courage is not cowardice; it is conformit. Even a dead fish can go wit te flow.”
~ Jim Hightwer ~
As I look around me, I see this vast task the Lord has given me, The world is so corrupt and full of evil.
He says 'Be strong and courageous!’ I say nothing and go along with His true sovereignty, I sigh as I sit here at night and count the many hurts that seem to overcome me.
I hear His voice again 'Be strong and courageous’ the doubts infiltrate my head and consume me 'Be strong and courageous I say’, I soon sense His peace within me,I listen!
I have gone through so much horrible pain It is like I see this huge army in front of me. Where is my army to fight?I am one and they are many My law and My Word are the only weapons you will need, Yes,the task I lay before you is hard but remember! Do not fear for I am with you!
There is a reward for those who do righteous! Stand firm! For I will relieve these pains of life, and lead you into eternity.
