I'm Him

Dr Dharius Daniels

Sunday, April 6, 2025

Summary

To become all that God has called us to be for others, we must allow Jesus to be all He is called to be to us. Many believers unconsciously settle for a segmented Savior who only saves them for heaven, missing out on the abundant transformation Jesus offers for daily life on earth. Through the seven 'I Am' statements in the Gospel of John, Jesus reintroduces Himself to show that He desires to be our Navigator, Satisfier, Clarifier, Access Giver, Defender, Reviver, and Multiplier.

Pastor's Points

1.Jesus is my Navigator (John 14:6)
2.Jesus is my Satisfier (John 6:35)
3.Jesus is my Clarifier (John 8:12)
4.Jesus is my Access Giver (John 10:9-10)
5.Jesus is my Defender (John 10:11)
6.Jesus is my Reviver (John 11:25)
7.Jesus is my Multiplier (John 15:1-2)

Key Points

1.In order to be all God has called you to be to others, you must let Jesus be all He is called to be to you.
2.Your daily experience with Jesus is limited by your current understanding of Him.
3.Jesus is not just a Redeemer who gives a ticket to heaven; He is a Rabbi who wants to put heaven in your heart on earth.
4.Jesus is my Navigator: He does not just deliver us out of trouble on the back end, He wants to direct us on the front end.
5.Jesus is my Satisfier: Sin occurs when we attempt to grab satisfaction with our own hands instead of trusting the true source.
6.Jesus is my Clarifier: Turning on His spiritual light prevents avoidable spiritual damage and reveals hidden traps.
7.Jesus is my Access Giver: He does not merely open doors; He is the door that leads into God's goodness.
8.Jesus is my Defender: The Good Shepherd carries a rod and staff to defend His sheep against attacking wolves.
9.Jesus is my Reviver: God can breathe fresh life into dreams, situations, and memories we prematurely buried.
10.Jesus is my Multiplier: Divine multiplication often comes through pruning and subtraction.

Sermon Moments

“In order for you to be all that God's called you to be to others, you must be willing to let Jesus be all he's called to be to you.”

“Your experience with Jesus is at the mercy of your understanding of Jesus.”

“The deliverer gets me out on the back end. The director leads me on the front end.”

“Sin is man's attempt to take his satisfaction and put it in his own hands.”

“Nothing wrong with enjoying the fruit of your labor. But that should be a supplement, not your source.”

“I don't just open doors. I am doors.”

“David said, 'When I see your rod and when I see your staff, I'm comforted cuz I know you got it and you willing to use it.'”

“His multiplication comes through subtraction.”

This Week

Invite Jesus to direct your choices before taking action so you spend less time needing emergency deliverance.
Identify any leaky 'cisterns' or temporary things you have been depending on for ultimate joy and return to the Lord as your primary source.
Ask God to turn on His spiritual light in your current circumstances so you can spot hidden traps and walk wisely.
Stop trying to defend yourself in personal conflicts and place your reputation into the hands of Jesus, your Defender.
Surrender dead or dormant dreams back to God, trusting Him as the Reviver who knows when to bring things back to life.
Embrace seasons of subtraction or pruning, trusting that God is preparing you for greater spiritual fruitfulness.
Reflect on which of the seven roles of Jesus you have been resisting, and invite Him to reintroduce Himself in that area today.

Remember This

Your experience with Jesus is limited by your understanding of Him, so allow Him to be all He claims to be in every area of your life.

A Challenge for You

What part of Jesus have you been consciously or unconsciously resisting, and will you allow Him to reintroduce Himself to you today?
