From the Diary of a Faithful Scribbler,

Who Are You?
#I_Am_Who_I_Am.

Imagine, you meet up with someone who tells you to do something. You ask him, "Who are you?" Then he tells you, "I am who I am? What would be your reaction?

For instance, assume you don't know Hon. Sonko, then you meet him and he bails you out of a situation. You ask him, "Who are you?" "I am Sonko," he answers. What would be your impression? Assuming you understand that Sonko implies mtu ambaye ni "source" yaani ana mullah kuruka! You'll definitely trust him to meet your need. Btw, have you heard Hon. Sonko's campaign song, #SimbaWaNai? Ok, let me hook you up with part of the lyrics, "...Simba ni nani? Sonko! Sonko! Simba wa Nairobi amenguruma.... akinguruma yatima, wajane wanacheka. Baba, kura zote ni zako." Now, this is an interesting jam, think about it! You see, those who know SONKO trust and rejoice when he roars. How much more should those who KNOWTHE NAME OF THE LORD PUT THEIR TRUST IN HIM? Check that out in Psalm 9:10.

A person's name signifies his character, ability and/or mission. In Genesis 3:14-15, God asks Moses to do something and when Moses asks Him who He is, He answers, "I Am Who I Am!" This is His personal name, Yahweh/Jehovah. It is a form of the verb "to be." Its an assurance of God's character as the eternal, ever present, self-complete, self-sufficient, independent Being. Everything else is contingent being that derives its existence from Him. He is the infinite and ever present, inexhaustible source. He is the real source. Those who Know His name as the self-sufficient Being put their trust in Him because they know He doesn't forsake those who seek Him. Ma-Sonko wa hapa duniani wako tu hapa kwa muda. Wananguruma tu kwa muda, but Jehovah, the real Source roars and every living thing find its being in Him.

Haya, ni hayo tu kwa sasa.

Who or what is the Most Omnipotent thing or being in heaven and earth?

Dear Diary,

I use Outering-Jogoo roads almost daily but last week I got abit interested, each day I took keen observation. I observed the road construction equipment and I thought about the power of these equipment: The Crawler Excavator got my attention, it excavates earth and crushes rocks with ease and loads them onto dump trucks. The Fork Lift and Wheel Loaders too, didn't miss my eyes. I saw them lift and move heavy objects and piles of materials. The power of the Road Roller Machine and Motor Grader pressing down into place and creating flat surfaces was remarkable. The prowess of the operators humbled me as well.

On to something else, it's Campaigns season and you see, sometimes I am amused when men and women declare their power, their abilities and they brag about extraordinary things they're doing or they've done. I also brag about my prowess, power and abilities but this morning in my devotion I am humbled by the Omnipotence of God. Human beings have limited power and abilities so are any man made machines/equipment but Jehovah, the Omnipotent; His power is limitless. There are NO IMPOSSIBILITIES, DIFFICULT and/or TOO HARD things for/with Him. Jer 32:17-18, 26-27; Gen. 18:14, God says, "Is anything too hard for Me?" In Matt. 19:26; Luke 18:27, with men it seems impossible for some people to get saved but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Luke 1:37, you could be wondering, "How shall this be seeing I don't have what it takes?" Well, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE with God. Isaiah 52:2, you could be in a difficult situation and you are wondering if there's hope for you. Well, God says, "I have the Strength to RESCUE you." Probably you are looking at what's happening in your life and wondering what God is upto. Well, God has the power not only to DO ALL THINGS but in wisdom, grace, with a purpose and with excellence.

So what? Through the scripture and in our day to day life, God reveals to us specific truths about Himself so that we can know what He is like and be drawn to worship Him for who He is.

The Lord God, Jehovah is All-powerful.
