Destiny – Pathway Journey

Who Am I and Who Are You?

God met with Moses at the burning bush on the backside of the desert. He told Moses about his assignment. Moses was not so sure if he was up to the task. I am sure he was not the last man to have questions concerning his qualifications.

Moses’ first question was, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” (Exod. 3:11 NKJV). He wasn’t necessarily questioning God’s wisdom but questioning his own capabilities. It sounded like an impossible task. One desert shepherd confronting the most powerful leader in the world sounded more like a death-wish than a career change.

When God calls a person to such a task, the “who me?” question is a good test of humility. In the kingdom of God, those who think they are the perfect choice is a disqualifying attitude. If an assignment can be done with only a person’s talents, then it is not a kingdom job.

God assured him, “I will certainly be with you” (Exod. 3:12). That is the main thing we need to know. The great African missionary, David Livingstone prayed this, “God, send me anywhere, only go with me. Lay any burden on me, only sustain me. And sever any tie in my heart except the tie that binds my heart to Yours.”

Then Moses needed information about God when the people asked, “What is His name?” Even though the God of the Israelites was often known as the God of Abraham, the God of Issac, and the God of Jacob; the people had lived four hundred years in a land of many ‘gods’. “Who are You?”

God answered, “I AM WHO I AM.” A rough definition of this is The Self-Existent One. He is the Eternal One who has always existed and all that exists comes from Him. He is the Supreme One over all other entities whether in Heaven above, on the earth, or under the earth. The-Number-One is above all powers, principalities, and dominions. All are beneath Him. He has no rivals. When we go in the name of the Lord, the demonic horde sees the One who is with us! That ought to make someone shout!!

Back to the two big questions. “Who am I?” And to the Lord, “Who Are You?”
We are who He says we are. We can do what He has called us to do. He is the Great I Am. There is no one like Him in all universes that are out there. With Him, there are no limitations. He is boundless. He is All-Powerful. He is Ever-Present. He is All-Knowing. He is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

All you need to know in life is who you are in Jesus. Who is the One you make both Lord and Savior of your life. Now go! Fear not, He is with you.

Yours on the Journey,

Take Off Your Sandals

In the desert near Mount Sinai, a fugitive of Egypt is shepherding the sheep of his father-in-law. He was born an Israelite slave in Egypt. It is a point in history when Pharaoh was thinning the Hebrew population by killing all the newborn male slaves.

Surely the enemy of God, Satan himself, had designed this slaughter because a deliverer was destined to be born. The Adversary would plan a similar genocide 1300 years later to extinguish another deliverer—the Messiah.

Christian Martyrdom

Most of us have read accounts of religious martyrdom in historical books and the Bible. Few of us have witnessed it with our own eyes. Recently, we saw Charlie Kirk killed at one of his events. Some would argue that this was a political hit, not a religious one. Whether you loved or hated him, he was an adamant Christian who never minced his words.

The original Greek New Testament word for martyr is the word ‘martus’ pronounced [mar’-toos]. Its basic meaning is witness. A martyr is a person killed for his witness.

It is estimated that over 70 million Christians have been martyred since Jesus Christ himself was martyred on the cross. Most of those have been in the 1900s under fascist and communist rulers. Depending on the historian, some estimates say that since 2000 there has been an average of 100,000 per year. Martyrdom is not just in biblical times but also in relative modern times.

Faith Over Fear: Pursuing God’s Calling

The calling of God’s work must be greater than our strength or it is only the work of a man. If it can be accomplished outside of God’s power, it is the mere work of man. The work of God’s kingdom is accomplished only by the strength and power of God.

Jesus said it very plainly in John 15:4-5 (NKJV). “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”

When a person believes he has a God-given calling in His kingdom, he must see something beyond himself. With such a calling or dream, there are two possible outcomes. One, it is a miracle only God can do. Secondly, we look foolish. The fear of failure or looking foolish causes many to not pursue the work of God.

Stuck in the Doldrums? The Wind is Coming!

Doldrums is a word that sounds like what it is. It just sounds boring, stale, and listless.

Geographically, the Doldrums is an area around the equator, about five degrees latitude north and south. It is an area where the trade winds converge and rise, reducing the surface winds. It was a dreaded place for sailors because they would be stuck for a long time until enough winds blew. If their ship stayed too long, food and water supplies would run out. Many old-time sailors died in the doldrums.

Many times, I have felt like I was in spiritual doldrums. I had moved along by a hearty gust of the Spirit of God and suddenly slammed to a stop. There was no wind in my sails. I prayed, read my Bible, and went to church but still no wind was blowing.

Understanding God’s Plan in a Troubling World

The randomness of life keeps many people on edge, indifferent, completely checked out of life, or deeply troubled. Life can be difficult, and those difficulties can send us looking for the answers to why. Problems cause us to deal with immediate needs and then the lasting aftermath of making sense of it all.

Some resign themselves to fatalism. This is a belief that whatever happens is predetermined. They think, so what’s the use to even try? This would be like someone getting a hurricane warning and taking no action either in preparation or evacuation.

Other folks are overcome by fear. This fear is coupled with hopelessness. They fall into the pit of despondency. This spoils any part of their lives that have moments of joy.

Eternal Destiny Cloaked in an Unplanned Pregnancy

The village girl who had no worldly aspirations was chosen to be the earthly mother of a Heavenly Son. Her dream was to marry a common craftsman and fill his quiver with arrows called children. She saw not much more in her future than drawing water at a village well and baking flat bread. The faithful tasks of a wife and mother for the care of her family was her hope. She dreamed of moments of joy and fulfillment scattered among the mundane. This was her only view over the horizon.
