We live in a world where day-to-day we’re often faced with issues and problems that can leave us feeling worried, stressed and overrun. We know clearly from the Word that we should not be worried or anxious about anything. But how do we practically walk in this? One of the most important things we need to remember is that in God we have everything we need. This is the mindset we need to keep at all times.
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.’”
The verse above comes from the passage in scripture where God spoke to Moses from the burning bush. When Moses asked Him what his name is, He replied “I am”.
When we look at God’s name, “I am”, what we need to realize is that God is saying, “I am everything you will ever need”. God is eternal, self-existent and unchangeable. He is greater, higher and more powerful than anything and there is absolutely NOTHING that He cannot do! When we realize this we can have peace and confidence that no matter what happens in life our God is with us and is more than able to help us and make a way for us.
So the next time you’re facing a situation that leaves you feeling fearful do what Phillippians 4:6-7 says and pray and trust God and remember that in Him you always have everything you need. He is more than able to bring you through every situation.
