Your deliverance
For I know that through your prayers and God’s provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ what has happened to me will turn out for my deliverance. Philippians 1:19
But then something happened!
But then something happened! For it pleased God in his kindness to choose me and call me, even before I was born! What undeserved mercy! Galatians 1:15
In the preceding verses to this text, Paul talked about the man he used to be – his old pattern of living, behaviour, devotion, and religion. But then something happened!
I’m so glad there came a time in my chronicle that something happened – I came to the knowledge of the saving grace of Jesus, recognized his kindness toward me by choosing and calling me while I was in my mother’s womb! Hey! Herein my praise – what undeserved mercy!
It is by the LORD’S mercies that we are not destroyed, because His compassions never fail. Lamentations 3:22
This mercy is available to all because the Lord deals patiently for your sake, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Repentance is a change of heart resulting in a change of behaviour and destiny.
That’s what happened to Paul – his story began with persecution but ended with praise. You too can get in the flow of this mercy and here’s how:
If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9

Lord Jesus, thank you for your kindness and mercy towards me- for dying to save me.
Thank you for choosing and calling me.
Today I choose you and I call on you to forgive me of my past ways.
I ask you by your Spirit to help me live and walk right from now on in Jesus name. Amen!

I Am Who I Am – God’s singular answer to your many questions
Background Music – I Am – Cece Winans
God answered Moses, “I Am Who I Am. This is what you must say to the people of Israel: ‘I Am has sent me to you.’” Exodus 3:14
One of the things I like about the opening phrases is the fact that God answered Moses. Life is full of paradoxes, puzzles, and problems that set us in quest for answers in different directions. I am grateful for the encouragement in this text that there is an answer! An answer to your physical, financial, professional, social, familial, marital, emotional, spiritual or legal problem! Your case is not unsolvable neither is it impossible.
Jesus looked straight at them and answered, “This is impossible for human beings but not for God; everything is possible for God.” Mark 10:27
There are 3 fundamental lessons from God’s response to Moses:
1. PERSONALITY [I]: God is personable and relatable – He is a person and not just a supernatural being beyond the galaxies. For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched by the feelings of our infirmities. If you are hurt, He feels it too.
2. ORIGINALITY & IMMUTABILITY [I Am]: God is self-existing. Nothing made him and nobody can attempt to copy him. Every other god or being that tried has failed woefully – He is still top of the charts at being who he was, is, and will always be – Unchanging! Everlasting!! God!!!
3. INCOMPREHENSIBILITY [I Am Who I Am]: God is God all by himself – can’t be figured out or boxed-in. He is too much to be limited to time, space, places or things. Some know him as healer, provider or deliverer, etc. Truth is he is all that, and much more. The Psalmist said his greatness is unsearchable. At best, all we know now is incomplete, there’ll come a time when all obscurity and ambiguity will fade – when we see him face to face and will know even as we are fully known. What a day that will be!
Got questions? Great, God’s got the answers! He is the God of all flesh, nothing is too hard for him. Nothing (no thing) includes the stuff that you are currently losing sleep over. All you need to do is ask!
Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7
Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come.
Jeremiah 33:3
Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honour Me.
Psalm 50:15
I will answer their prayers before they finish praying.
Isaiah 65:24
