Our Identity and Our God

As Moses stands in the dust with God before the burning bush, he is vulnerable and exposed. In their interaction, God is revealing to Moses what he believes about himself, i.e. who he thinks he is, and what he believes about God, i.e. who he thinks God is. As the conversation proceeds, it becomes increasingly clear that Moses has some major misconceptions about Who God is and who he is. One of the many things God is up to is making more clear who He Himself really is, The Great I Am, and making more clear who Moses really is as one created by, loved by, and provided for by God.

I Am.....Your Deliverer

Since there is a God, nothing is more important than Who He is and What He is like. In this part of Exodus, He introduces Himself to Moses personally as the great "I Am." He is the true God, the living God, the everlasting God, the One who always has been and always will be. He is the God who loves His people and is committed to their freedom. As Moses stands vulnerable and exposed before Him at the burning bush, God reveals Himself with greatest clarity as the great "I Am" who has always been with and for His people and who has both the plan and the provisions to set His people free. He will execute His plan with perfection and to completion, in His way and time. Just as God worked in the lives of Moses and the Israelites, He works in our lives as well, showing us the desperation of our predicament and the sufficiency of His redemption. He shows us the various ways in which we are enslaved and He reveals Jesus as the One who alone can set free. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Where God Meets Us

God met Moses in the dirt, where he stood with uncovered feet and an exposed heart. From a miraculously burning-and-yet-not-consumed bush, God spoke to Moses, declaring His faithfulness and plan to rescue His Hebrew people from Egyptian bondage. Moses had spent 40 years in obscurity in a place called Midian. Previously, in his younger days, he felt destined for a life of significance. He believed he would be an advocate for his people, but when he took mattters into his own hands and murdered an Egyptian, the Hebrews did not applaud him. Sensing rejection, hearing that Pharaoh was aware of his act, and fearing for his life, he fled to Midian where he spent those many years in the lowly, seemingly unimportant position of tending to his father-in-law's sheep (cf. Acts 7). But when the time was right, God intervened. He appeared in that burning bush and called out to Moses to begin fulfilling His plan of setting His people free. God has His way of revealing Himself to us as well. In His perfect time, He uses our life circumstances and struggles to invite us to honesty and vulnerability; He confronts our pride and our unbelief; He reveals His character of faithfulness, love, mercy, and grace; and He teaches us to live by faith in His provisions for us through Jesus Christ, rather than by our own efforts. He persuades us of the truth that sets us free.

Pharoah & You; Moses & Jesus

What do you have in common with Pharaoh? There is probably more than you realize. As he ruled over Egypt there were many things that had to go his way, or else! He was the most powerful man in the kingdom, but he was also the most insecure. He was the scariest and the most scared at the same time. We all have ways we want things to go in this world. If we're honest, we often believe we need things from the circumstances and the people around us, things that make us feel valued and things that make us feel fulfilled. All it takes is some disruption, some intruder, some threat to our kingdom and we react. We seek to exercise control and to fight for our comfort. The good news is just as God sent Moses to free His people from the clutches of Pharaoh back then, He has sent Jesus to set us free from our own Pharaoh-like hearts today. He comes to show us that our well-being is found in His prominence, His plans, and His provisions, not our own. He has come to deliver us.

How Did I Get Here?

We all find ourselves sometimes in places where we ask, "How did I get here?" There are many factors that determine where we end up in life, some within our control, some outside our control. There are decisions we make, people we meet, and experiences we have that all play a part in getting us where we are. The story of Exodus acquaints us with the reality that God is over all these circumstances, sovereignly orchestrating all things for His glory and our good. He is guiding us along, even causing us at times to be stuck, in order that we might learn to trust in Him. In God's good plans for us we are right where we belong in order to see His provisions for us, both physically and spiritually. Jesus came, lived, suffered, and died that we might know without a shadow of a doubt that our Creator God loves us, that He is always with us, and that He will always give us exactly what we need.

Finding Your Place in God's Story

"We begin our Exodus series with a message entitled, ""Finding Your Place in God's Story."" We humans love stories. We love movies and books and plays. We are drawn to characters and plotlines. We are captivated by all different kinds of stories, war stories, love stories, funny stories, and even tragic stories. It is part of our being created in the image of God, the preeminant story teller. Human history is the telling of His story. It is the greatest of all stories. It is a redemptive story about God setting us free by drawing us to Himself. The ancient Exodus account is part of that story, and it has all the elements of a good story, interesting characters, conflict, plot twists, and redemption. It is about God raising up Moses and freeing the Israelites back then, and it's about God sending Jesus to free us today. As we study, we will see that their story is a lot like our story, and that the same God who loved them and led them to liberation is up to the same in our lives. We will find our place in God's story."

Pressed into Comfort

This morning, the sermon was entitled Pressed Into Comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3–11), we saw that God—who is the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort—does not remove pressure from our lives but uses it to transform us. Through seasons of deep distress and even despair, God exposes our self-reliance and presses us to depend on Him, the One who raises the dead. True comfort is not found in escaping hardship but in experiencing God's presence, promises, and care. As He comforts us, He also reshapes us into instruments of comfort for others, reminding us that He has delivered us, is delivering us, and will deliver us again—all for His glory and the strengthening of His people.

The End of Searching

Because Jesus Christ has risen from the dead, the deepest search of every human heart—for meaning, satisfaction, and life—is brought to an end in Him. While people pursue countless lesser "saviors" that promise relief but ultimately fall short, the resurrection proves that Jesus alone fulfills what we are truly longing for and accomplishes the salvation we actually need. This gospel was not unexpected but foretold and faithfully fulfilled, calling for more than casual belief—it demands a real, enduring confidence that holds fast to Christ in every circumstance. Therefore, the only fitting response is to entrust ourselves fully to Him, placing all our hope in the One who alone gives true and lasting life.
