TOPIC: I Am That I Am (Open Heaven for Teens 5 November 2024)

MEMORISE: 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. Exodus 3:14

READ: Exodus 5:1-3

1. And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.
2. And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go.
3. And they said, The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days’. journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.

MESSAGE:

Before anyone can boast of his or her name, the person must be very clear about his or her identity. When Moses encountered God at the site of the burning bush that was not consumed, he only knew God as God. However, when he was about to begin the ministry of delivering God’s people from slavery, God had to lay emphasis on His true identity to Moses: ‘I am that I am,’ in other words, ‘I am who I say I am.’ Yoruba elders often say, “We don’t fear the receiver of a message; it’s the sender we should dread.”

Pharaoh couldn’t fathom the audacity and boldness with which Moses confronted him. He was even more confused when he was told the name of the sender of the message. He did not know how powerful the God of Israel was, so he misbehaved and refused to let the Israelites go until he and his people suffered greatly.

As a child of God, you have been called to be a true representative of your heavenly Father here on earth, but the question is, do you know your true identity? Are you still a slave to sin, fear, and problems that make you susceptible to the enemy’s attacks?

CONFESSION:
I will take my stand because I know who I am in Christ.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
Ezekiel 12:1-14:11, Hebrews 7:1-17

HYMN 41: Jesus, My Lord, My God, My All

1 Jesus, My Lord, My God, My All,
Hear Me, Blest Saviour, When I Call;
Hear Me, And From Thy Dwelling Place
Pour Down The Riches Of Thy Grace;

Refrain:
Jesus, My Lord, I Thee Adore;
Oh Make Me Love Thee More And More.

2 Jesus, Too Late I Thee Have Sought;
How Can I Love Thee As I Ought?
And How Extol Thy Matchless Fame,
The Glorious Beauty Of Thy Name? [Refrain]

3 Jesus, What Didst Thou Find In Me,
That Thou Hast Dealt So Lovingly?
How Great The Joy That Thou Hast Brought
So Far Exceeding Hope Or Thought! [Refrain]

4 Jesus, Of Thee Shall Be My Song,
To Thee My Heart And Soul Belong;
All That I Have Or Am Is Thine,
And Thou, Blest Saviour, Thou Art Mine. [Refrain]
