Names, part-8

-

Moshe said to God,
“Look, when I appear before the people of Isra’el and say to them,
‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you’;
and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’
what am I to tell them?”

God said to Moshe,
“Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh [I am/will be what I am/will be],” and added,
“Here is what to say to the people of Isra’el:
‘Ehyeh [I Am or I Will Be] has sent me to you.’””
‭‭Sh'mot (Exo)‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(CJB)‬‬




But Moses protested,
“If I go to the people of Israel and tell them,
‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’
they will ask me, ‘What is his name?’
Then what should I tell them?”

God replied to Moses,
“I Am Who I Am.
Say this to the people of Israel: I Am has sent me to you.””
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(NLT)‬‬

Do not be discouraged

Do not be discouraged. I am with you. Yes, I am working within you, despite what you don’t see or sense. I am with you. Drink-in the water I offer. Apply the balm of my peace to your restlessness. My words bring encouragement. Let them soak into your life. My ways bring wholeness, for now and in the time yet to be revealed. I am active within your life. Rest in me and do not allow discouragement to affect you. My love for you is ever-growing. It reveals itself as you allow me to work. Replace what you don’t see with my assurance. My words will come to pass. They never fail. There is nothing I have shown you that I will not perform. Let the water of my living word refresh you.

Out of the Water

-
Later, when the boy was older, his mother brought him back to Pharaoh’s daughter, who adopted him as her own son. The princess named him Moses, for she explained, “I lifted him out of the water.” Exodus 2:10 (NLT) I have known you before your birth and blessed you with my name. I have drawn you up, out of the waters and into my presence. Walk with me. Lean into me so I can steady your way. I have places yet for you to be going; lives yet for you to reach.
