What Does God Say When You’re Not Enough? | Exodus 3 (Christian Martinsen)

What do you do when you realize you’re not enough for what’s in front of you?

In Exodus 3, Moses encounters God at the burning bush after his own attempts to fix things have failed. Moses asks, “Who am I?” But God doesn’t respond by building up Moses’ self-confidence. He says, “I will be with you.”

This week we explore the God who reveals Himself as “I AM,” the God who sees, hears, knows, and comes near. Moses’ transformation isn’t learning to believe more in himself. It’s learning to depend on the presence of God.

The answer to our inadequacy isn’t becoming enough. It’s learning to live in dependence on the God who is.

We look at three movements in Moses’ journey:

Stop trying to be enough.

Start with who God is.

Learn to live with God.

Ultimately, Exodus points us to Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us. Our confidence isn't “I am enough.” Our confidence is:

I AM. And I am with you.
