He is the Great I AM 🤍
As I read Chapter 8 of John, I was reminded of this dream I had 5 years ago! It might sound crazy for me to remember a whole entire dream from 5 years ago! But at the time, I was fresh out of college, and chasing after Jesus trying to understand my purpose in life! I was also 22 at the time, and felt overwhelmed with life after college, I was trying to figure it all out! This dream, left me in awe!
I saw myself standing in the middle of this desert, it was so silent... scary silent! I literally felt like I was the only person on earth! All of a sudden, I heard this loud roar, and thunderous foot steps and the ground began to shake! I was so scared because I didn’t see anything yet, but I heard it coming and I wanted to hide! Then, all these animals appeared. Elephants, lions, giraffes, tigers, literally every animal you could think of! It was like a stampede, and they seemed to all be coming towards me. All of a sudden, it was like I was snatched out of the way, and the animals continued to run forward.
As I felt the powerful Hand of God holding me out of the way of this stampede, He spoke to me, His voice so clear and strong, yet gentle! He said...
“Before the world was formed, there was Me, and before Me? There was Me...I AM”
Isn’t that powerful & beautiful? I woke up from that dream encouraged and believing that God is capable of handling everything that came my way! No matter how big, or small. If you ever have doubt or fear in your heart that He can’t handle your situation, even if you’re questioning His goodness & if He’s real! ... Today, He’s saying.. “I AM”
