God Who Is, God Who Delivers
Exodus 3 - Moses’ life is one of ups and downs, rising and falling. In the midst of it all, God reveals Himself to Moses in a bush! What God reveals in that encounter is that He is the God who IS! He has no beginning. He has always been. He simply “Is.” Everyone else can point to a time when they WERE NOT, but NOT God. This matters because if God did have a creator of His own, we’d be looking to the wrong one :-)
Not only did God reveal His power in this statement, but He also revealed that He was a God of rescue. He was going to deliver His people. He was powerful enough to take an entire nation OUT OF another powerful nation. He was going to set people free from slavery and lead them to The Promised Land.
Taking it to Jesus - Jesus is the BETTER Moses. Jesus actually let’s people know that He is this same God “Before Abraham, I am!” Jesus was saying that He was there, has always been there, and will always be there! In Jesus’ coming, He was the promise fulfilled to rescue people from slavery to sin and death. Moses led the people out of Egypt. Jesus leads us out of sin. Our deliverer has come, the One who is I Am before Abraham! We are a people who are in need of deliverance, and without a powerful Rescuer, we have no way out of sin.
