I AM says Do Not Be Afraid

In John’s gospel we often read of Jesus referring to Himself as “I am.” That is a declaration of Jesus’ deity. When Jesus says, ‘I am,” He is claiming to be God.

Jesus referred to Himself this way once in a very interesting situation. In John 6 we read of the disciples crossing the Sea of Galilee and a storm came up. They were having a hard time dealing with the wind and the waves and then they were frightened by the sight of someone walking across the water.

Well, it was Jesus walking on the water and He said to those scared disciples, “I am, do not be afraid.” Jesus took care of those disciples that day and He can take care of you and me.

Knowing Jesus and knowing that He is God can take care of all our fears. Do you know Jesus? Do you know Jesus as your God and Savior?

Come and worship with us. All our information is online at believers-fellowship.org.

To see how Christ commands the disciples to not be afraid during such a unique and difficult situation, it, truly, is great encouragement to know there is nothing I need to fear -- cause He IS over it all!
