The “I Ams,” “I Wills,” Etc. – Dwight Lyman Moody

A favorite way to study the Bible with me, is first to take up one expression, and run through the different places where they are found. Take the “I ams” of John; “I am the bread of life;” “I am the water of life;” “I am the way, the truth, and the life;” “I am the resurrection;” “I am all, and in all.” God gives to His children a blank, and on it they can write whatever they most want, and He will fill the bill. And then the promises. A Scotchman found out thirty one thousand distinct promises in the Word of God. There is not a despondent soul but God has a promise just to suit him.
