Exodus 3:11 (NKJV) 11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”
“Who am I?”.
Those three words were spoken by Moses, the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, as he was faced with carrying out the task that God had given him.
God had chosen him, but Moses wasn’t so sure about God’s choice.
We hear those same three words again, coming from the mouth of David, the man and the king whom God called a man after His own heart.
1 Chronicles 17:16 (NKJV) 16 Then King David went in and sat before the Lord; and he said: “Who am I, O Lord God? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?
And then we hear them once more, coming from the mouth of Solomon, the greatest king who ever reigned over Israel.
2 Chronicles 2:6 (NKJV) 6 But who is able to build Him a temple, since heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him? Who am I then, that I should build Him a temple, except to burn sacrifice before Him?
These words are a stark contrast to the teachings of the world, where we are told that we must understand our self-worth, and that self-esteem is critical to proper childhood development.
As believers, it’s important that we understand that our worth is found only in God, the One who created and redeemed us.
It’s when we truly understand this that we will begin to give God the honor and glory that He deserves in every aspect of our lives.
