I AM: Part One
Sunday, April 6, 2025 | 10Am | PASTOR TONY REA
John 8:54-59 NIV
Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. Though you do not know Him, I know Him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know Him and obey His word. Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.”
“You are not yet fifty years old,” they said to him, “and you have seen Abraham!”
“Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” At this, they picked up stones to stone Him, but Jesus hid Himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.

Exodus 16:32, 35 NIV
Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Take an omer of manna and keep it for the generations to come, so they can see the bread I gave you to eat in the wilderness when I brought you out of Egypt.” The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land that was settled; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.
John 6:26-27 NLT
Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, you want to be with me because I fed you, not because you understood the miraculous signs. But don’t be so concerned about perishable things like food. Spend your energy seeking the eternal life the Son of Man can give you. For God the Father has given me the seal of His approval.”
Three ways to appropriate Jesus as the bread of life
- Jesus is our supply
- Jesus is our satisfaction
- Jesus is our Savior
Jesus is our supply
Philippians 4:19 NKJV
And my God shall supply all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Jesus is our satisfaction
Matthew 5:6 NKJV
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled (satisfied).
Psalm 107:9 ESV
For He satisfies the longing soul,
and the hungry soul He fills with good things.
Ecclesiastes 2:4-11 (paraphrasing)
I built houses for myself and planted vineyards. I have gardens and parks and all kinds of fruit trees. I owned more herds and flocks than anyone before me. I amassed silver and gold for myself, and the treasure of kings. I acquired male and female singers, as well as the delights of a man’s heart. I became greater by far than anyone in Jerusalem before me. I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my labor, and yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless.
