For the first Thursday in November we are on the letter I in our Bible Verse Challenge. I’m going to go with several “I ams” that are found throughout the Bible that God declares about Himself.
I is for I AM
Exodus 3:14: “I am who I am.”
Isaiah 41:13: “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.”
Isaiah 45:18: “I am the Lord, and there is no other.”
Matthew 28:20: “I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
John 6:35: Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.”
John 8:12: Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
John 10:11: I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
John 11:25-26: Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
John 14:6: Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Revelation 1:8: “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
From Tom: Another I Am:
Exodus 3:14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’
From Cheryl:
My verses today are two similar questions:
“Is anything too hard for the LORD?” Genesis 18:14
“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” Jeremiah 32:27
From Maristella:
“Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with *injustice*.”
Proverbs 16:8
And
“The *integrity* of the upright guides them,
but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.”
Proverbs 11:3
From Vera: I is for Immortal, Invisible
“To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.”
1 Timothy 1:17 ESV
Add your verse/verses for the letter I in the comments or on your blog and I will add them to this post. Happy Hunting!
I want to give you a heads up that we will not have our Bible Verse Challenge on the Thursday that Thanksgiving lands on this year, November 26th. We’ll resume the following Thursday, December 3rd.
…Exodus 3:14: “I am who I am,” but change is often good.
Except…God never changes. 🙂
My verses today are two similar questions:

I LOVE the “I am” verses you shared today!
Thank you, Cheryl.
“Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with *injustice*.”

And
“The *integrity* of the upright guides them,
but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.”

Thank you for this challenge,dear Ellen.Sending prayers!
Immortal and invisible
“To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.”
1 Timothy 1:17 ESV
I am what I am applies in so many ways.
The ‘I Am’ verses are so comforting to me. They show that God never changes. We can put our hope in the Rock, the One True God who is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is Immovable!
