33b — The Seven I Am’s of Jesus
Seven Names Reveal Jesus’ True Identity —
When Jesus used the name “I AM” to describe himself in John 8:58, the Jewish leaders correctly recognized this as the name God told Moses to call him (Exodus 3:13-14).
Jesus did not stop there though. The book of John records that Jesus used this name seven more times to reveal his true identity as God and further explain what he had come to offer.

My Prayer
Dearest Father, Thank you that you did not send an angel — but you sent your very own Son to Earth to reveal who you are. A message this important deserves my full attention. Give me ears to hear and a heart to receive all that Jesus offers. Amen.
