iGod AM All-Powerful

iGod: Part 3 of 4

Exodus 3:14 “God replied to Moses, ‘I Am the one Who Always IS. Just tell them, “I AM has sent me to you.”’”

Omnipresent: God is everywhere.

Omnipotent: God has unlimited power.

Omniscient: God God knows everything

Psalm 139:1-6 “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my every thought when far away. You chart the path ahead of me and tell me where to stop and rest. Every moment you know where I am. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You bothprecede and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to know!

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-KNOWING

• I CAN TRUST GOD WITH MY FUTURE

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the LORD. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.’”

Genesis 17:16-19 “(God) ‘I will bless her and give you a son from her! Yes, I will bless her richly, and she will become the mother of many nations. Kings will be among her descendants!’ Then Abraham bowed down to the ground, but he laughed to himself in disbelief. ‘How could I become a father at the age of one hundred?’ he wondered. ‘Besides, Sarah is ninety; how could she have a baby?’ ...But God replied, ‘Sarah, your wife , will bear you a son. You will name him Isaac, and I will confirm my everlasting covenant with him and his descendants.’”

My response: TO RELAX COMPLETELY

• I TRUST GOD WITH MY PRESENT

Matthew 8:23-27 “Then Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake withhis disciples. Suddenly, a terrible storm came up, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went to him and woke him up, shouting, ‘Lord, save us! We're going to drown!’ And Jesus answered, ‘Why are you afraid? You have so little faith! Then he stood up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly all was calm. The disciples just sat there in awe. ‘Who is this?’ they asked themselves. ‘Even the wind and waves obey him!’” Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths.”

• My response: TO RECOMMIT DAILY

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-KNOWING

• I CAN TRUST GOD WITH MY PAST

Luke 15:17-24 “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, At home even the hired men have food enough to spare, and here I am, dying of hunger! I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired man.”’ So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long distance away, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’ But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger, and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening in the pen. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.”

My response: TO REPENT SINCERELY

Memory Verse: Jeremiah 31:34 “And I will forgive their wickedness and will never again remember their sins.”

iGod : Part 1 of 4

“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.’” Exodus 3:14

Omnipresent: God is EVERYWHERE.

Psalm 139:7-14 “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,’ even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” —

BECAUSE GOD IS ALL-PRESENT

I can BE DIRECTED by God daily.

Exodus 13:21-22 “By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.”

I don’t have to WANDER.

Memory Verse: If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking --James 1:5

I can BE PROTECTED by God daily.

Ezra 8:22-23“For I was ashamed to ask the king for soldiers and horsemen to accompany us and protect us from enemies along the way. After all, we had told the king, ‘Our God protects all those who worship him, but his fierce anger rages against those who abandon him.’ So we fasted and earnestly prayed that our God would take care of us, and he heard our prayer.”

Matthew 8:23-27“Then Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake with his disciples. Suddenly, a terrible storm came up, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went to him and woke him up, shouting, ‘Lord, save us! We're going to drown!’ And Jesus answered, ‘Why are you afraid? You have so little faith! Then he stood up and rebuked the wind andwaves, and suddenly all was calm. The disciples just sat there in awe. ‘Who is this?’ they asked themselves. ‘Even the wind and waves obey him!’”

I don’t have to TO FEAR.
