Bible Verse
Exodus 3:14 says, “God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you.'”
Meaning
When Moses asked for God’s name, God revealed Himself as “I AM WHO I AM” – a profound statement illuminating the eternal, self-existing, unchanging nature of God. It shows that He is not bound by time or space, and His existence is not conditional on anything or anyone. He simply is.
As we reflect on this scripture, we begin to understand that God’s name, “I AM,” illuminates his infinite nature. He is all things and not confined by our earthly limitations or understanding. He was there before anything else, and He will still be there after all else ceases to exist. No matter the changes life brings, God remains the same – a constant source of hope, guidance, and love.
